[QUOTE=ambushsabre;16591385]No, a good FPS has good graphics, great storyline, and fun gameplay. Half life 2 had all of these, which is why it's better then crysis. Stating that "you're doing it wrong" if you're playing an FPS for the story is just faggoty bullshit.[/QUOTE]
Saying HL2 had a good story shows you know nothing about what makes a story good.
HL2 was a fantastic game, and it should have been on this list due to its gameplay and graphics, however, its story is shit. It's 1984 with aliens and an atmosphere that wasn't nearly what it was cracked up to be.
Now, if HL2 had stuck to its original plan and delivered on the promises of the alpha leak, turning out a bit more like what Raising the Bar describes, then I would agree. As it is, however, the story in HL2 is pretty shitty.
WTF crysis is better then DooM?
They need to remove the numbers and make everyone happy
can I be the only one who thought crysis had a reasonably good story? I mean, it's not great, but it isn't awful. It could have done with a little more explanation of the aliens though.
but I have to agree with above, doom really deserves to be placed higher than many of the higher up ones.
Crysis was just a big tech-demo tbh.

He means what part of Crysis I think. I can't remember that from the game either. Looks like the Frontlines with nanosuits.

Could you expand on this? I myself don't really remember the HL2 storyline anymore... What made YOU think it was bad?

Out of all the forums you could of posted that in, you picked the one where the majority of it are HL fans.

Probably because you sucked at it due to your idiocy.

The fact that you don't really remember it says it all. If it were any good, you'd remember it.
Also, be sure not to confuse story with storytelling. You can tell a shitty story in a way that makes it seems awesome (see HL2), or you can tell an awesome story in a way that makes it seem shitty (see the Halo games vs the Halo books). HL2 had great storytelling, just a bad story.
I like Crysis :saddowns:
Of course it's not better than Fallout 3 though.
Honestly, i want everyone here to pay X-COM: UFO Defense, it's truly a great game, easily #1 because of how innovative it was for it's time. It still has what most games today cannot replicate. Plus, it's only $5. What's not to like?

Half life 2's storyline sucked. The voice acting and characters were good but otherwise it was standard post-apocolyptic fare we've seen a million times before. As for fun gameplay, it's an fps. That's all it is. Not an especially interesting one at that.
Half-Life 2 had a storyline???
Really? Sims? Infront of Fallout? I've learnt about a year ago to screw off with IGN. They gave Madden an 8.9 and Mothership Zeta a 7.0 or 7.4. IGN is getting paid or is just plain stupid.
I think that all the games there belong on the list, just not in that order necessarily.

Sports Game vs RPG Expansion Pack, reviewed by two different people.

Custom maps are pretty good in the community, so that's probably what it is.
We should put every PC game on a list, and kill eachother by arranging it from Worst to Best instead.

Gotta agree. The gameplay has aged possibly worse than any other fps, I can't even play it any more. Story is totally forgettable, I mean what has happened over the course of the last 3 games? Destroy citadel, watch citadel explode (if you can even count ep1 as any advancement to the story), launch rocket. Yawn. It's about as linear as a story can possibly get.
[QUOTE=efeX;16546546]Fallout IS worse than crysis. hell it's worse than alot of games.[/QUOTE]

Yeah. No. Half-Life series is full of WIN.
Possibly the shittiest list ever. Metal Gear Solid wasn't even on there.

I disagree. It's very good but there are games with better stories.
