Counter Strike or any of the other hundreds of 'realistic war sim' FPS games.  Real, fast paced FPS games like the Quakes and Unreal Tournaments are a dying breed these days.   :'(

gears of war - its an "OK" game but NOT a 9/10 for sure. multiplayer is random as hell..its like they make it random on purpose for retarded kids to play online or something. single player is wayyyyy too short and boring too

   It is barely an "ok" game.  While I could list several major flaws with that game, the worst is that it is boring.  Maybe it brought something new and exciting to console games, but it isn't a good PC game.

  I agree with you.  While I actually enjoy Counter Strike, I would choose UT over it anyday. 

  There does seem to be less and less fast paced shooters.  In fact, I recently started playing Duke 3D again. Last week, my friends and I even managed to get it working in XP and we played several deathmatches.

Just as it is,
