You people are seriously putting L4D above HL2?

[R0B0SH4RK]

L4D is a great multiplayer game, and HL2 is probably the best single player ever...

I think I'll go with HL2.

[Viper89]

You don't have Poker, Battlefied.......or Robot Arena (bannable offence)

Or COD, Halo, Or blur

Can't believe I'm saying this but I agree with sparky lol, though I don't know what blur is. The Doom series and Quake series could possibly go up on the poll those are classics . Some other that just struck me Unreal Tournament( I think that's what it's called) and Far Cry, anybody liked those shooters?

What combat games do you play then?

For shooters, I like Goldeneye. Portal is good too. As for what I play instead of blur, I play the real Mario Kart.

I will admit to occasionally firing up Halo (CE), but not often. It can be a lot of fun, but the same can be said for any generic shooter with decent controls.

Where's GTA?

I think the games in that list are there because they're all source games.  Thus, the vote is for the best source game.

Btw, theres a new Goldeneye coming out for the Wii. Probably will dissapoint, but lets hope not.

And as for the next poll, I vote Ketchup over Mayonnaise.

TF2 was good...

...then the updates came.  The game is ruined in its current state.

How is it ruined?

Pyros: With the backburner, the pyro now has more of an excuse to be a rushing idiot. 
Demoman: No longer a defense class.  The sword and shield the demo got recently turn the class into another mindless rushing class.
Scout: Hurr look at me I got magic invincible soda!
Engineer: Nice update.  It really helps with all the soldier/heavy ubercharges that keep destroying my crap.
Sniper: Doesn't snipe anymore.  Instead, a sniper now creeps around a corner and waits for someone to shoot an arrow at.  If it doesn't kill them he runs away.  When confronted with a close range threat, a sniper now uses a jar of urine to defend himself.  If he misses, he just wussies out and runs.
Heavy: The only times I see the killing gloves of boxing used is when some heavy is trying to show off his melee skills.  The alt chaingun is useless.  The sandwich I'm actually ok with.
Spy: It's an underpowered class, and none of the updates have helped enough to fix this.  The fact that he collides with everyone on the opposite team makes an already easy job of rooting him out even easier.
Soldier: I never really liked the soldier, just 'cus I hate rocket spamming in any shooter with a passion.  The most anoying update for the soldier gave him that stupid pickax.  There's nothing more annoying than being killed in one hit by a dying soldier with 20hp running at 80mph.
Medic: The only class I don't really have a problem with.  Ubers can get annoying after a while though.

Pyros: With the backburner, the pyro now has more of an excuse to be a rushing idiot.
It got nerfed recently. Isn't that bad, and makes you learn to watch your back. Plus a good pyro with the flamethrower is MUCH more dangerous.
Demoman: No longer a defense class.  The sword and shield the demo got recently turn the class into another mindless rushing class.
Only noobs go chargelander. Plus you can get them down really easy.
Scout: Hurr look at me I got magic invincible soda!
I think it's quite fun. What's wrong with it? If they get behind your defense lines, then you just don't know how to teamplay.
Engineer: Nice update.  It really helps with all the soldier/heavy ubercharges that keep destroying my crap.
The update is probably awesome, I've yet had a chance to play it though.
Sniper: Doesn't snipe anymore.  Instead, a sniper now creeps around a corner and waits for someone to shoot an arrow at.  If it doesn't kill them he runs away.  When confronted with a close range threat, a sniper now uses a jar of urine to defend himself.  If he misses, he just wussies out and runs.
Well, I prefer a sniper to be close to me so I can beat their ass when they try to frag me. If you can aim, youc an take them out when they're running away. That, and a sniper+jarate isn't dangerous. jarate+enemy team is dangerous.
Heavy: The only times I see the killing gloves of boxing used is when some heavy is trying to show off his melee skills.  The alt chaingun is useless.  The sandwich I'm actually ok with.
The KGB are pretty fun. Natascha is also very, very useful when you're skilled. and the Sandvich is lovely, not only for the heavy but for the whole team (right-click to drop it)
Spy: It's an underpowered class, and none of the updates have helped enough to fix this.  The fact that he collides with everyone on the opposite team makes an already easy job of rooting him out even easier.
It's neither over-nor-under-powered. It's essential to the team, it's well balanced, I see no problem with it.
Soldier: I never really liked the soldier, just 'cus I hate rocket spamming in any shooter with a passion.  The most anoying update for the soldier gave him that stupid pickax.  There's nothing more annoying than being killed in one hit by a dying soldier with 20hp running at 80mph.
There's no rocket spamming at just 4 rockets and a super slow reload time. The Demoman spams much, much more. Also, you just have to learn to not get abushed by Equalizer soldiers, same goes with pyros.
Medic: The only class I don't really have a problem with.  Ubers can get annoying after a while though.
Medics are awesome. Not only they're essential to he team, but healing is really fun in this game. That, and MOFUKKEN KRITZ. Fun fun fun!

General footnote: play on better servers. nomnomnom is pretty fun, so is 2fort2furious. Awesome people and cooperation make this game EXCELLENT. This isn't CS:S, you HAVE to have a good team. I also suggest tf2lobby if you want to go mild competitive.

I really don't feel like volleying back every class-based counter-argument, so I'm going to be general.  I find Team Fortress 2 to be (generally) simplistic and point-and-shoot.  In its original form, it wasn't that bad, but the updates have made it more and more annoying and I just don't enjoy playing it like I did when I first got it.

Also, alot of people don't play as a team and use their team as a crutch instead.  For instance, a retreating sniper who hits an enemy with a jarate.  He could have been camping some sniper spot with the sole intention of getting kills for himself, but then he depends on the rest of his team to take out his pursuer.

I haven't been playing alot of TF2 because it annoys me, but all the servers I've been on seem to lack the "team spirit" you're talking about.  It might be more fun with a united team of players, but I'm just to sick of the game to go back to it at this point.

I'll invite you to a game sometimes. You'll see where the fun's at.

(also, for me CS:S is much more point-and-shoot and twitch-aiming-required)

Try me.

Also, I said simplistic point-and-shoot.  CS:S is complicated point and shoot. 

That was half sarcastic, half meaningful.

If you want my general opinion on CS:S, it goes kinda like this-
Your having fun in CS:S when other people aren't.  In other words, your having fun if your owning other people.  Otherwise, it's a ragetastical game.

Where are the RTS games? C&C red alart, generals, and the Earth 2150 series ect.
