We have had many great FPS and then this gen comes and gives us a crap load and we don't have anything going 10/10 for the genre yet? I mean sure, the FPS genre started its peak with Half-Life 2's immersion, story, innovative weapons, state of the art missions and art direction, great soundtrack, and great enemy encounters as well as other thing, but ever since then, with some open-world games like Crysis in their, the genre has been staying stagnant at around 8 or 8.5 with most games. Now I am not sure what else can be done with FPS that has not already been done. What has to be added to give the push for that first 10/10 FPS?

I wouldn't label System Shock 2 as a traditional FPS game, but I would give it a 10...

One of the best games I ever played, and the funny thing is, I did my first playthrough earlier this year :)

There's a GTA FPS mod.

Though of course, then it wouldn't be a 10,just 9 because PC has higher standards.

BPoole96

A quote from that review...

It's hard for Perfect Dark to appear as impressive today as GoldenEye 007 did when it first came out several years back, because GoldenEye 007 had looked like it would be just another first-person shooter for the console systems, which had seen mainly lackluster ports of PC shooters. However, the game was groundbreaking enough to influence nearly every shooter - console and PC - that succeeded it. Perfect Dark isn't a game that wows you immediately like its predecessor did - its improvements on that title are subtle, at least at first.

Gamespot

Oh how the times have changed :(

There was a time where the consoles got lackluster ports and it took a great, groundbreaking game like Goldeneye, to actually influence the PC. Now anything that sells well despite the quality influences everything. Even Halo is falling to what the higher selling shooters do. It's really sad.

Though also take the header from that review...

As a single-player or multiplayer FPS experience Perfect Dark is unparalleled on the console systems.Gamespot

See how they had to add in "on the console systems." That tells you everything you need to know about gaming standards.

Every Goldeneye released after Goldeney64 is better than Goldeneye 64, it was overhyped the game was not that good and I am talking when it came out, and the N64 controller didn't help. PD was better but both should have gotten lower scores. Didn't give to spits about console FPS until the PS2 and Xbox.

I did notice how GS tagged the "on a cosole" part at the end. GS used to segregate console and PC quite a bit. They even had two different GOTY awards back in the 90s.

It is quite a shame that CoD4 is pretty much undeniably the most "groundbreaking" game this gen since it has influenced not only other FPS games, but several other genres.

I played both GoldenEye 64 and Perfect Dark back when they released and there was nothing like them on Consoles at the time. The only other console FPS that had the impact of those 2 games back then was Halo CE.

I think Goldeneye on the Nintendo 64 would have gotten 10 instead of a 9.8 if it was reviewed today, back then Gamespot rated games by 0.1's out of ten, but now Gamespot rates games by 0.5's out of ten.

STALKER SOC is perfect 10 in my book. STALKER sum up how to make FPS and how all FPS should have been. sadly due to corrupt mainstream media it was overshadow by big overhype game. like COD or bioshock.SNIPER4321
luckily we don't go by your book.

Borderlands was 10/10 as far as I'm concerned, I mean it did everything right including co-op.

I'd also give Half-Life 2 a 10/10 easily.

Rage was about a 9/10

Doom3 about a 9/10

Halo Reach was excellent. I can see an argument for 10/10

Also Killzone 2

This, I mean in this day and age it's just not enough to be a first-person shooter, you need RPG elements, some driving, etc.

It's hard to say "All you do is shoot people" and give it a 10/10.

FPS isn't a 10 genre.
