Default what was your favourite fps ? - 03-03-2004

Oldies but goldies...

Just to have a little fun. I'm not talking about all the recent games, but let's say we'll range from the release date of the first 1st person shooter game ever to 1996/97 (discarding Half-Life, then )

So what's the FPS game that you enjoyed the most ? What's the one that thrilled you the most ? The one that you regret the most ?

I'll speak for myself: I've never been fond of Quake... for one single reason: quake is brown. Simple. That's all shades of brown on the screen. I wonder why they didn't make this game monochrome, that wouldn't have made a big difference
I enjoyed Wolfeinstein 3D a lot, although the levels resembled more a maze than real FPS maps. The enemies and the sound ambience were really convincing, though... hearing some enemies scared the shit out of me each time they were waking up
I enjoyed Duke Nukem 3D too... shooting these pigs and hearing them scream was a lot of fun
But the one I enjoyed the most was Doom. Definitely. The gloomy ambience, the hellish music, that darkness, but especially that double barrel shotgun which was really able to blow enemies away. KABLAM!... and the imp collapses, projected on the wall.

Let this be a nostalgia thread. 9_9
