I had some trouble compiling the list because I don't play most of these games, so I wasn't sure of some of the acronyms. Wasn't a scientific survey anyway. Just a count of game mentions, stuffed into an Excel chart and sorted. Gave me something to do on a Saturday morning before the rest of the house woke up.

Good racing, and gaming,

Boot.

In a different area of the forums I have posted my take. But, looking at the replies one hits me as very true. Half Life 1 is the game that defined fps. Huge game, with no load screens. The game had many twists and turns, and many times you thought you was either at the end of close to it, and found that neither was the case. Both explansions tied neatly into the original game. The half life 1 game is presently being re-done by a dedicated group to bring the graphics and voice up to today's standard. Here is the link to their site to keep abreast on what is happening with them.

I would probably have to say 007: Nightfire for PC in early 2001. I practically grew up on that game.

Not so much fun now... but that game has lots of memories for me.

After playing both Crysis and then COD4 multiplayer, I'm going to have to change my choice. Call of Duty 4 is da best! Multiplayer is SUPER fun!

THANKS  SLAYTON  FOR  THE  A W E S O M E  SIG!!!

Another great series came to mind as I thought about all the games that I have played over the years - actually 2 series - the first was Descent 1, 2, 3, Descent Freespace 1 and Freespace 2. By the way Freespace 2 is a free download as it has been moved into the public domain. Then there is the continuing series of Command and Conquer. Especially the original series produced by Westwood, which again like Origin is no longer around. Both very successful houses were killed by EA :'(.
Descent was the first of the real 3D games with 360 degrees of movement, which could be very disorientating as you moved through the game world. The other neat thing was you could be attacked in your blind side by the AI, making it a little more real. C&C was an early adopter of real time strategy. Which pretty much replaced turn based style of game play. On the ps system turned based example would be the final fantasy series.
