    No shooter is better than Golden Eye.

    Although, I haven't played that game in YEARS. Maybe it's not so great anymore.

    Supposedly, the Primes are great though.

    I didn't appreciate that game when I played it at my cousins house when I was seven, but playing it now is a blast, especially with a few friends.

    Both COD and Battlefield suck.
    Why is this even an argument...
    :)

    BioShock would have to be my favorite FPS. Out of the choices, I like Halo the best (didn't really care for two and three though).

    Yea the choices suck.
    There are much better FPS out there than what was provided.
    I think i voted 'I dominate them all' or whatever, but yea honestly, Metroid was a beast series. Never played Halo so out of the three i did play (COD, Battlefield, Metroid) i would honestly go with Metroid.
    But yea. Give me better FPS to choose from and we can have a real discussion here.

    Hell yes, I would have probably chosen Bioshock too. I went with Halo because it actually has a thought provoking storyline. I haven't played any of the Metroid Primes though. I like shooters that don't try to dip too far into reality and actually have a somewhat involving story/setting.

    I don't know if metroid is so much a FPS, I think it's classified as a FPA. (first person adventure)

    It's first person.
    And you shoot shit with a gun of sorts.
    Yea dude, it's a first person shooter.
    Now if you wanna call it a first person shooter/adventure, be my guest.
    But i'm lazy and rather just call it a FPS.

    I can't believe people are still trying to say that Goldeneye 007 holds up against modern titles. Sure, it was good at the time and I sank countless hours into it, but the first person shooter genre has moved on so much since then. It's really a technology-dependent genre.

    Anywhoo, I don't think there's an objectively 'best' FPS. I personally like to go for the more unrealistic titles, of which the Halo series is probably the best modern representative. A lot of people say the series is overrated and I agreed with them based on Halo 1 and 2, but the series stepped up so much with the 360 titles. I've got nothing but praise for the Source engine shooters either; I still haven't seen better ragdoll physics than what were dished up in CS: Source and DOD: Source.

    As a sidenote, does anybody remember Battlefield 2142? I dunno why, but it seemed to sink into obscurity real quick. I really digged the take-over-the-enemy-spaceship mode.
