Are first person shooters the best genre of games?

Loading

Yes, because

KittyGrey says:

I don't have the attention span to search the planet-sized maps of RPGs for various trinkets. I want to kill things. And I want guns.

First person shooters are fun but,

ModernChakra says:

different games provide different benefits, for puzzle solving first person shooters are not that great, but for quick reaction, entertainment and keeping the neurons firing... the best.

Call of Duty is the most one of the most popular first person shooters, as well as one of the most popular games in the entire world. They have sold over 55 million copies of Call of Duty which adds up to over 3 billion dollars in profit. Call of Duty games have been dual developed by Infinity Ward and Treyarch.

Call of Duty Black Ops is currently the latest installation in the series and is without a doubt a great game but honestly, with a better and improved Call of Duty game coming out in less than 3 months why not pre-order Modern Warfare 3?

The Call of Duty game mode usually follows a similar pattern which they improve on each year. It begins with the selection of over 15 exciting game modes. You then play on a team using a certain LMG, SMG, assualt rifle, shotgun, or sniper and as you eliminate team members and complete the objective you earn points and level up. As you level up class customization is unlocked.

Class customization is without a doubt the most important part of the Call of Duty multi player. As you level up not only can you choose from a wider variety of better guns, but also you can customize your guns with a selection of attachments that vary from flamethrowers to aperture sights. You can also choose from a list of grenades and equipment to improve your killing potential. Sidearms also play as a crucial role in the game whether you choose a RPG or a Dessert Eagle improves specific points of your gameplay. Perks, or powerups are also included from you to choose from which offer various benefits. Finally as you accumulate a certain number of kills required for a killstreak, you unlocka certain powerful ability whether it be the ability to rain death from the cockpit of an AC-130, control an RC-XD explosive car, or call in a stealth power.

Call of Duty also has a low learning curve and is extremely popular with younger players.

Battlefield 3 - Limited Edition

Battlefield is a series of first person shooters produced by the company Electronic Arts. It plays strong emphasis on teamwork as well as strong vehicle use.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 received excellent reviews such as a 9.5 out of 10, but similiar to the Modern Warfare series, where the sequel is around the corner, why buy Bad Company 2?

The two things Battlefield is well known for are their breath taking graphics as well as their extremely cool vehicles. Battlefield 3 has upgraded to the FrostBite 2 engine, which boasts arguably the best graphics ever seen in a video game. If you don't believe me check out the trailers below. Destructible environments also play a huge role in the game as many buildings/fences/walls can be destroyed by C4, tank shell, RPG, or a number of other weapons. Multiplayer in Battlefield Bad Company 2 featured over 20 vehicles from tanks to helicopters which could all be controlled by a player.

Teamwork also plays a huge role in the game as each of the 4 classes, Assault, Medic, Recon, and Engineer must work well together in order to succeed in achieving whatever objective is called for.

Fallout New Vegas is under $20 and ships for free!

Fallout is a series of first person shooter RPGs produced by Bethesda who is well known for their creation of several great RPGs. Falllout New Vegas is no exception. Fallout New Vegas is the sequel to the game of the year Fallout 3. In the game you play as a mutant in what was previously Las Vegas but is now called New Vegas after a nuclear war took place. Although it is rather complicated to explain, the goal is as in most first person shooters is to kill enemies. With over 2x the weapons in Fallout 3 and with the assistance of a V.A.T.S (tool which let's you pause combat and target specific parts of the body) you can easily decimate enemies. As you progress you can upgrade your characters with certain skills, and traits while also improving your gun with attachments such as extra mags and sights. Reputation is also important in the game, as NPCs of different factions like or dislike you based on the choices you make throughout the game.

Counter Strike Source!



"The second most played game PC game today"

Battlefield Gameplay

Counter-Strike: Source

Counterstrike costs less than $20 and ships for free!

Counter-Strike: Source is the latest installation in the classic Counter-Strike series, and is currently one of the most highly played first person shooters on the PC today.

Counter-Strike: Source pits two teams against each other (a terrorist group against a group counter-terrorists) in a battle. The goal of the game is to win more rounds than your opponents by fulfilling the maps's objective whether it be rescuing hostages, defusing a bomb, or simply killing the other team.

Counterstrike: Source is game that as not as new player friendly in comparison to other first person shooters in the fact that each round provides a player only a single life. This means if you die you stay dead for the remainder of the round (though rounds are not normally short). Also walking / running as the same time as running will increase bullet spread drastically.

Counter-Strike:Source features a large variety of weapons for each term's arsenal. For starters you can choose one of the 6 starting rifles AK47 and FAMAS all of which are extremely versatile and pack a huge punch. If you want more speed try out the sub machine guns such as the UMP or P90, which offer great fire at close range combat. If you are engaged in close combat frequently you also might want to try using the full auto shotgun, or even knifing your opponents. At long range maps you definitively want to try out one of the game's sniper rifles, which are absolutely deadly when used properly. Along with your primary weapon you get a secondary pistol such as the Dessert Eagle or the Glock 18. Smoke grenades are also at your disposal as well as explosive grenades and flashbangs.

The extremely large fan base of Counter-Strike: Source has created a vast variety of customized weapon skins, modified sounds, as well as new map textures.

BioShock 2 (only 8$!!!)


Bioshock 2

BioShock 2: | B+ 1Up.com | GamePro 5 Star | IGN 9.1 |

Left 4 Dead 2

Available for direct download!

Bioshock 2 is the sequel to the critically acclaimed original BioShock published by 2k Games. Bioshock 2 is considered to be a sci-fi first person shooter.

In Bioshock 2 you play as a "Big Daddy" which is basically a human inside a huge diving suit in Rapture, an underwater city full of dangers. Inhabitants of Rapture are known as Splicers and are insane and desire nothing better than to kill you. You survive using a huge drill gun as well as injecting yourself with genetically altering chemicals (plasmids) which grant you unique abilities such as telekinesis and control over electricity, as well as using creative strategies to defeat based on the environment and enemy weaknesses.

Plasmids are obtained by defeating other Big Daddies and harvesting ADAM from Little Sisters. How you harvest ADAM whether by killing Big Sisters or adopting them plays a role in the storyline of BioShock which is both complex and entertaining.

Bioshock 2 also is extremely fun, as you play as a splicer in the civil war slightly before the storyline begins. There are a variety of game modes that can be played but the objective is usually to kill your enemies either by hammering them with bullets or killing them with plasmids.

    I really appreciated this lens.. I have been using Borderlands as my relax time game, my me time, but getting a little tired of it, so I have found myself back at Black Ops for the time being and actually have been enjoying it since taking a much needed 8 month break! The holidays last year involved a lot of Prestige.... Thanks again!
