FPS Debate!

[† Anras Rune]

Me and some friends of mine have been having a debate as to which shooter is the best, so I thought why don't Isk the people of kametsu what they think! Of course we decided to rule out a few that are quite obvious like mw2, resistance and halo because if not there would be to much arguing. So more less popular shooters please and why! My friends and me came up with the likes of doom, killzone 1, goldeneye (obviously) so give us your opinions please and be fair!

Well, one FPS left quite an impression on me way back.

It's called Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth.

Now this isn't an ordinary FPS, it's based on one of the stories by Howard Lovecraft (and he wrote really sick stories, i must say). The plot has a major role in the game.

I liked the dark atmosphere, but even more that that i liked the injury system. You dont have a life bar and your health does not regenerate like in modern games (which is lame and annoying imo, the regeneration i mean), but every time youre shot or bitten you get an injury on your leg, arm or head, which affects your speed, aim, etc. Besides you lose blood gradually and color fades, the screen turns black and white as things get worse. First aid kits are not easy to find so you learn to play really careful and shoot accurately. The shooting is good, too, you use all the weapons from handgun to thompson all the time, even in the final episodes a handgun still can save your butt, and i like it.

The game's main problem though was outdated graphics and poor marketing. Apparently the game was released much later than it was supposed to. The studio that made it got closed shortly after, too.
