Most artistic FPS game ever made?

Bioshock for sure. Team Fortress 2 is a close second though.

Killzone 2 is mine, personally. I love the gritty/dark environments, and I do feel that it is the most "accurate" depiction of what warfare deep in the future would actually be like (which is scary to think about) *puts away crystal ball*.

As for someone claiming realistic =/= artistic, you missed a few lessons in art clas$. CoD4 definitely has an artistic feel to it and it's very well done.

Agreed. I love TF2's $tyle; it's really one-of-a-kind.

Mirror's Edge

The Void

And yes Crysis :P

And I thank you GS's HTML error system, for not letting me put spoiler tags. :)

Bioshock for sure.

Does this topic mean artistic as in games which are art, or just visual design? Because most people are just posting screenshots of games they think look cool it seems. :P

TF2, and Bioshock. Bioshock probably wins but I just didn't find the gameplay all that great.Ace6301

How does the gameplay change the artistic value of the game? It wasn't like it was bad or game changing enough that any meaning in it was lost. :P

Why in the name of hell is Call of Duty even on there, most generic art direction ever.

Tf2 or bioshock have left me stunned more than any other fps in terms of the way it presents itself. Take your pick.

Bioshock, or the metroid prime games.

Bioshock for sure! I was constantly in awe at the scenery and the amazing atmosphere it created.

Played on PC with maxed settings.

BioShock. Lol @ even mentioning Call of Duty as an artistic achievement.

Cause it's FPS I have to say Bioshock, TF2, Mirror's Edge and Killzone 2. Otherwise, apart from FPSs, I tend to notice, that asian games impress me more in terms of artistic looks.

I voted Bioshock, but let's not forget Zeno Clash.SparkyProtocol

I thought of Zeno Clash... never played it though... but isn't it more of a First Person Action game... combat is mostly melee isn't it?

Metroid Prime is more of a FPS than Mirror's Edge is.

Metroid Prime is more of a FPS than Mirror's Edge is.

Shooting is a much bigger component in Metroid Prime than Mirror's Edge, therefore it's more of a FPS. Calling Mirror's Edge a FPS is like some dude jumping on a trampoline for 2 min. and calling himself a gymnast.

Since reading between the lines isn't your forte. I was simply saying that MP with all the shooting you do is largely considered a FPA(ction/adventure) game, that being the case, there is no way we can classify Mirror's Edge as a FPS.

There... was that more to your liking?

Hey look he got it... why couldn't you?

[QUOTE="UnknownSniper65"]

I actually liked the artistic direction of the original Halo....the opening scene on the spaceship was the highlight of the series for me.

the rest of the games felt very eh....too much focus on multiplayer.

XIII Out of all the FPS i've actually played, XIII stands out really well, however, it's been the only one with similar visuals or so i can rememberQuadster

[QUOTE="windsquid9000"] I find it funny when people say game A is more of a FPS the game B. Both are, either something is or isn't a FPS.methinksyou

I don't disagree with your logic... but you are missing the point. NEITHER OF THEM ARE FIRST PERSON SHOOTERS! However Metroid Prime is closer to being a FPS than Mirror's Edge.... DO YOU UNDERSTAND NOW!? It's not really that tough of a concept.

Clive Barker's Jericho (could be because I like horror and I'm weird :P)

NEITHER OF THEM ARE FIRST PERSON SHOOTERS!moistsandwich

System Shock 2,the game that got "ripped off" by Bioshock(not in the setting per se,but in almost every other detail.

XIII for sure.

Borderlands i just love the artstyle.

Horrid poll.

Team Fortress 2, Portal and STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl. All for different reasons.
