What would you say is the best first person shooter game? Offline play is essential - current play battlefield 2142 which I think is great - but not being that great I spend alot of time counting down from 10 (getting good at this counting backwards - can nearly do it without a prompt in front of me!) - seriously I know they have 6 maps you can play off line I would like more!!!!!!
So what would you recommend?

well if you want a good single player mode aswell....i personally love FEAR and its expantion pack.
Then my next best online+ single player would be the call of duty series.
For just multiplayer i like Bf2142 and my fav multiplayer fps game would be UT2004. I think UT2004 probably has one of the largest number of community made maps around. There are litrally 10000's of maps and loads of mods and game types.

I loved the original Unreal. Now where did I put that flameproof vest? But seriously, it was such a beautiful game - that intro that swoops over the castle was just incredible at the time.
Chronicles of Riddick was also a great game - especially after you finish the game and you get to hear the designers and programmers talk at length about how it was put together.
Modern day - I really enjoyed Quake 4, great weapons and deliciously old school.

I can't understand for the life of me why nobody has mentioned either tribes or tribes 2! What could possibly be cooler than flying around on a jetpack and nailing other guys out of midair with an exploding disk launcher?
Other good shooters include Unreal Tournament (only the original), HL/HL2, the original Doom, MAYBE counterstrike. Quake 3 arena is also a great classic that is fun to play and requires some skill. However, if you want a nice free (as in free beer) game with updated graphics and game play that is more intense than Quake 3 arena, check out Warsow.
None of these games will require you to go out and build an SLI system w/ two 8800GTXs (or some crossfire equivalent) and almost all of them can be found very cheaply now (or free in the case of warsow).
I hope you check out these games because even though they are old, they are still good, and you really have nothing to lose by doing so.

I would second the nomination for the original Unreal, that game was awesome. I thought STALKER was a little weak in all areas except atmosphere and graphics, where it was amazing. I liked Quake 4 a lot, too.
But my very favorite FPS game is really the whole Marathon Trilogy. It's free (as in both beer and speech) nowadays; you can get it at http://source.bungie.org/

FAR CRY for offline - it's got the best mix of story and action and I've played through it twice. It's my favourite single player FPS since HL
pposing Force.
I don't play much online so for me offline;
HL2 was interesting but I still haven't finished it because it bores me.
Quake 4 wasn't bad but I was happy to finish it.
Pariah was good but too short.
Snowblind okay.
Doom3 - monster closets are for bad game designers.
Call of Duty & United offensive were pretty good.
STALKER is too RPG'ish.
Prey & FEAR I haven't played but Prey is next on my list to play after finishin STALKER.
UT (any one) is good for some mindless action but is best online.
Riddick just didn't get to the run & gun part ever.
Did I mention I liked Far Cry?

Enemy Territory !!!
Played almost everyday few hours a day for last 4 years and still didnt get bored with it. Quake Wars is no no, too battlefieldish with huge maps and enemies 10000ft away in airplanes etc.
FEAR is good
COD- dont like how my hero runs and shoots ( comparing to ET ) but many good maps
Quake 3 - classic

HL2 is very boring. The graphics and animation are nice, but it has very controlled gameplay situations, poor unsatisfying sound effects (espeacially weapons) and the only weapon I like is the revolver (more accurate than bolt crossbow).
CS:S on the other hand has wonderfully satisfying weapons with meaty sound effects, which makes it a joy to play. It reminds me of playing table tennis, with similar skills involved.
Bioshock is more like reading a scifi book. Its fasinating the first time round but I dont want to play it again. Now its just pretty to look at. The weapons are underpowered compared to the plasmids and I just used the Wrench most of the time.
