| I still occasionally play Quake Live, but honestly, they have nothing on newer fps games. |

Oh yeah, Duke Nukem WAS a good game, too. And no, they don't suck. In fact, in my opinion, they're better than Call of Duty. Battlefield....eh....they're the same for me.
But DOOM 3, and Quake 4? Heh. There's no beating them. NOT EVEN ARMA! |

*Face palm* Of course they like action. What I'm asking, is how so many people don't know what DOOM, Quake, Wolfenstein, or even Duke Nukem is. It's kind of silly, if you ask me. Oh yeah, and I forgot Serious Sam and HALO. |

Ehh, serious sam and halo were released in 2001. A bit to late for me to consider them OG FPSs.

@ dra Nope Wolfenstein is a 1991 FPS about the protagonist you are playing being an escaping prisoner, escaping from a Nazi prison or whatever
Good night, Luigi |

"TBH, never played it."
I still have yet to, it's on my steam backlog
Also if you have GOG, Steam, Amazon you can get Unreal Gold for about 9.99 usd
One of the thing I really miss of the old fps is the the fast paced multiplayer of Quake, Unreal Tournament, ect. |

First ask, how do you know about them? |

also I wouldn't call Halo a founding member of the FPS genre it definitely made a big impact when it hit but I wouldn't call it one of the "grandfathers" of the genre

Money is your answer.
They keep making ''amazing'' games like Call of Duty and Battlefield.
For money. |

| Dude...I know of these games because I don't play lies of a FPS you call "COD." Or Call of Duty. I actually play good games. Call of Duty to me, is just a add on to the Quake 3 engine. Oh yeah, forgot to mention that, too. Infinity Ward can't even make their own engine. Anyways, back to point. I was born in 2000, and my first game was DOOM, in 2003. I was a very young gamer. And I've fallen in love with anything made by ID. Even the controversial "RAGE" game. I don't see the problem with "RAGE" either. Some people says it sucks, I say it's freaking awesome! |
