  1. +1 on the Marathon trilogy. Leaving it out is criminal.
  2. Yeah the Marathon series is perhaps the most underrated gem in all gaming history, probably because it was for mac.

    Another fps gem that you might not have played is Call of Cthulu: Dark Corners of the Earth. A very interesting very immersive fps game.

    Might even have Mechwarrior2 CDs around some where :p

    Great list, it really brought me back.

    It is, however, woefully deficient without GoldenEye 007 on there . . .

    Golden Eye never made it to the PC, and this was a PC-only gaming article.
  6. +lots on Delta Force. DF/DF2 were truly awesome, we played them lots both as multi-room LAN and modem back in teh day... main problems with 56k modem play on FPS's were: it was expensive if you paid by the minute and this was even more annoying if there was a (rich?) sniper in the room...

    Destructable scenery was cool.

    So was the 'you get shot... you're probably dead' gameplay dynamic. Who needs a 'health' bar? ^_-
  7. The screenshots posted of NOLF are screenshots from NOLF 2. Is this intentional?
  8. might want to update Battlefield 2, on the PC it was 64. on the console I think it may have been 32. the Article says 32. it was 64 max. that is a fact! On the console it was Battlefield: modern combat. on the PC it was Battlefield 2. and they were 2 completey different games.

    Source: I played them on Xbox1 and the PC back when they where still consider "new" games.
  9. Kingpin : Life of crime FTW
  10. Yer why not KP, I think Quake 2 really should have had a prime placing...

    Q2 got gamers into mapping, working with configs, it was so much more than a game it became a way of life for many...
