They are all pretty good
And since when did Half Life mods count as their own series?
There is the Quake series too which I havn't played at all, and the Starsiege: Tribes series, which isn't bad but never got much better after Starsiege: Tribes

Does Counter Strike even have a story and single player or are they capitalizing on a stupidly popular game that actually sucks

I want to say Deus Ex. But they fucked up the sequel by only giving us a shitty port from the X-Box (IIRC). (That and it isn't soley fps)

GTA was NEVER FPS. It's a third person adventure/shooter

Isn't the halo series ALSO third person..

First person is when you see through the reticals by default, third person is when you have a above the person kind of view

A version change is not a game release.

Halo is definitely first-person...but i do think it is overrated. Half-Life all the way. Also, you could have Wolfenstein up there.

Medal of Honor. Especially the Spearhead expansion. I've been playing that game since it came out 3 years ago.

Doom (Although i can't comment on Doom 3, my PC's not good enough). I'm a massive Doom fanboy, as it was the first PC game i ever played. Call of Duty's way up there too, followed by half-life, although i've onyl played the original and expansions.

Duke Nukem, baby! Now that's one they need to bring back.

Anyone else remember the original side-scroll platform versions of Duke Nukem?

Ask Id Software. Duke Nukem Forever was supposed to be out in 1998.

I've got a copy of Duke Nukem 3D sitting right here, and a copy of Duke Nukem 2000 lying around somewhere. I want a new one, damnit!

Personally I say Unreal. The rapidity of combat, and the sheer thrill, is unmatched. Half-Life series is good, and fun to play, but heavily overrated. CS is great fun as well, but too frustrating to ever get the vote.

Halo isn't a series on PC yet; only the original is out. (Unless we're talking about videogame series period, in which case Halo wins hands down.)
