Ok guys, due to the huge amount of nominations, I will no longer be listing the nominees with their respective posters in the OP. Instead, I will just tally up the counts for each game and post the counts every few hours, while also verifying that no one is cheating by posting twice. I should have the preliminary top 5 up within the hour.
Remember, the nomination period ends at 10 PM EST on Monday September 10th.
Ok,guys as of 8.50PM EST on Sunday September 9th 2007, the top 5 nominations are as follows:
Half-Life 2
Goldeneye 007
Half-Life
Halo: CE
Bioshock
I'll post the new numbers in a few hours; nominations end at 10:00 PM EST tommorow.
The demo was magical, full of unicorns and rainbows. No one had ever before experienced an experience like the experience they were now experiencing. It was for all intents and purposes, a total cluster****. Everyone was running around in circles and flying planes into trees. No one cared about actually playing the game, everyone was just dumbstruck by the design of the game and sputtered around in their vehicles. Like treehugging hippies they were. I doubt any game ever will be as revolutionary and freaky as my first venture into BF1942. Also, you could drive the humongous carrier. I didn't realize it back then, but that was freakin crazy. And then with mods, you could fly it. Ahh, BF1942, you crazy sonofa*****.
Alright guys, the nomination period ends at 10PM EST tonight so get your nominations in as quickly as possible!
Voting will then begin at 10:15 PM EST tonight, and will last until 10:15PM EST September the 12th, so voting will last for 48 hours total. Get your nominations in if you want your game to be on the ballot!
The current ballot is:
Half-Life 2
Halo
Half-Life
Bioshock
Goldeneye 007
how longs left? im in GMT time heresamusarmada
About 5 hours. Do you think I should just post the hours?
How bioshock, a game that hasnt even been out that long, is in the top 5 over counter strike, halo 2, unreal tournament, and doom is beyone me.ice144
Well, that's just it. The beauty of this thread is that it show what FPS'sSW likes best; not necessarily which games are the absolute best critically.
This thread is all about opinion.
Oh, and this is just the nomination process; even if Bioshock stays in the top 5, who is to say that it will win the actual vote? The same goes for the other 4 titles.
And, if this comforts you any, Half-life 2 is the most nominated title by a large margin.
I,kungfuchaos nominate HALO 3 as the greatest FPS of all time. No I haven't played it, but we all know what to expect as the first two games were steller for multiple reasons!!! kungfuchaos
We can expect a short Single Player and Laggy Multiplayer? YAY!!
Oh I almost forgot..I nominate Perfect Dark (NOT Perfect Dark ZERO...HELL NO!)
Not having Doom on that ballot is an insult to the FPS genre... :cry:foxhound_fox
That may change, Bioshock isn't beating it by much... Although the other 4 are absolutely crushing the competition.
Especially Half-Life 2.

No, what is going to happen is at 10:15 PM tonight I will open up a new thread (or edit the OP of this one) with a poll featuring the five nominees.
This poll will be open for 48 hours (until 10:15 PM on the 12th), so that should be plenty of time.

thank, you :)
[QUOTE="horrowhip"]I, Horrowhip, nominate Half-Life as the greatest FPS of all-time.
edit - .... so many Halo nominations... It's a good game but not the greatest of all-time... Seriously...
ToScA-
To some it is, simple as that.
Exactly.
That's why I made this thread: So that the folks in SW can nominate, and subsequently vote for whatever game they feel like.
This thread is all about YOUR opinion; that was my point.
Within the context of this thread you are free to nominate any FPS you feel like, no matter what other people think about it.
Halo!!!Knewl2
I'm going to take that as a vote for Halo: CE. Would that be correct?
If not then PM me and I'll fix it.

the top 5 made me cry.... Half-Life 2 and Bioshock really don't deserve to be up there....
I, _Pedro_, nominate Deus Ex as the greatest FPS of all time.
_Pedro_
Well, this thread is all about opinion, so the games that are (currently) in the top 5 are the games that were put there by SW posters.
If it is of any comfort, Deus Ex is not very far from being in the top 5...and the nomination period doesn't end until 10:00PM EST tonight.
