On the subject of First person shooters, which one do you prefer?
Games like the Rainbow Six series uses Real life situations, Black Hawk down aswell as Battlefield 1942 and vietcong.
Fantasy First person shooters are like half life, ureal 1 + 2 and unreal tournament/2003
You can tell the difference between them by the levels they are set on and the weapons in the games.

I like all the Rainbow 6 games and played them all (except Raven Shield) through to completion.

More third person, but Mafia was good too and I guess thats more real life.

I generally prefer games with decent story lines, I'm not too bothered about Real/Fantasy. My collection consists more of real games though I think.

I got unreal Tourny 2003... but haven't touched it cos my pc isn't good enuff yet.
I've been looking into selling it for a copy of Battlefield to play Desert Combat mod... looks so sweet.
But then there will be mods for unreal tourny 2003 aswell :|

What is this desert combat thing? I've heard of it, and it seems to be big, but what's special about it?

I've always preferred Real-Life FPS- you get to use real weapons, unlike plasma guns and lightning guns. and te fact is, you can relate to it in reality.

But it's not like you actually are going to run amock with a gun anyway, so if it's unrealistic as it is, why not make it more unrealistic.
