[QUOTE="DarkLink77"][QUOTE="NeonNinja"]

The games in the first four brackets are all so awesome. The games in the bottom four brackets are pretty meh. But those first four make me pretty happy. Even if Team Fortress, Counter Strike, etc make a move up it's still all good by me. The first half of the brackets is really strong. It's just a shame that the two games from that bottom half are going to have a shot at making it to the final showdown.

NeonNinja

Indeed. I think Adobe rigged it so we could have brackets like Halo vs. Half-Life. Which will be insanely one-sided because people dickride Valve like it's going out of style on this forum.

I know. I'm debating between picking Team Fortress 2 over Half-Life 2 right now just because I know if any game can stop Half-Life it's another Valve game. Thing is, Episode 2 is just so good. The rest of Half-Life is whatever, but if they make HL3 like Episode 2 we are going to be in for one hell of a game. But until then, yeah, Half-Life is way over-rated on SW.

Valve games in general are overrated here. They're not great shooter developers, but people love the games like a fat kid loves cake.

I was given a coupon for 75% off of a Valve game. I could not bring myself to purchase a game. Sure, I've played the majority of them, but there was nothing that made me want to purchase the two I hadn't played: Portal 2 and Left 4 Dead 2. Later I won Portal 2 through Steam and ended up giving it away to someone who I felt would appreciate it more than me. I really don't think they're that good. They're not bad, I mean the games are still entertaining, but there's nothing about a Valve game to me that screams out "YOU HAVE TO PLAY THIS NAOW!" Only one of their games, Episode 2, made me feel that way. And it was a five hour expansion to the main game. I'd buy Half-life 3 if they release it, but they keep making crap I don't even want to try anymore.

Hermits hate Crysis 2 though. They don't even talk about Crysis the same way any more because of Crysis 2.

NeonNinja

Sad, doesn't seem like such a bad game. I understand the whole "more linear" crap that people throw at the game but does that really make it a bad game?

It's not a bad game at all. It's not as good as the first game and its expansion, but it's still an entertaining shooter. In terms of what it tried to do with the story and all, yeah, it lost itself quite a bit. But as far as being a shooter, it was still a fun game. And much better than the Gears of War sequels.

Crysis 2 was a colossal bore.

I would casually like to remind people that Just Cause is not a TPS, and that the shooting mechanics that are featured in it are incredibly bad.

As for the poll: an assault rifle switched to semi-automatic, and maybe with a scope. So technically it would be halfway to being a sniper rifle (voted automatic and semi-automatic rifle, anyway).

I don't know what it is but there is something extremely satisfying about taking down enemies with a pistol.

HL2 and Riddick I thought were pretty great, but most of my favorites are gone. :(

And always be bolting, or semi-autoing I suppose. The point is I want damage and accuracy. Much more satisfying when you hit someone.

Quick Question, why do you vote in these things? you own no current-gen console, and the majority of these games have had current-gen releases. Of course, bad trolling is what you do best, so whatever.

I have a feeling that Halo will win this round but eliminate by Half-Life next round. I predict final 4 will be Half life, Doom, STALKER and BioshockSNIPER4321

I'm kinda expecting Doom to lose to CS.

1) Halo 2) Half-Life and Team Fortress 3) Counter Strike 4) DOOM 5) Timesplitters 6) Bioshock 7) Unreal 8) Star Wars Battlefront Regarding the poll, I love games in which the pistol is more than merely a back-up weapon, something you'd only switch to in emergencies. Pistols or revolvers that feel good to fire are some of the most satisfying weapons in any game. Take the pistols in Halo CE, Deus Ex HR and ME3 as good examples of this.

Assault rifles are my go to weapons for modern shooters, like most people. It varies from game to game. Big fan of the needle rifle in Reach. COD it's the M4. UT it was the flak cannon. Goldeneye the RCP90(FN P90).

1. Halo
2. Half-Life
3. CS
4. DOOM
5. Far Cry
6. Gears
7. UT
8. Battlefront
