there are lots of good multiplayer First Person Shooters out now but which is the best.
>my first FPS multiplayer game was DEUS EX MACHINA and it was ok but it got me hooked.
>then i went onto game like Battlefield 1942, Renegade, vietcong, medal of honour allied assault and of course halflife.
>MOHAA is now one of the oldest and still one of the best games for multiplayer and is well liked for its simplicity and it is still the third most played Mplayer FPS according to GAMESPY ARCADE. (i love it but dont play it much anymore)
>Half-life is a good game i never really played it but its ok. this IS the number 1 multiplayer game on gamespy arcade.(i think there are too many expansion packs to get now)
>BF 1942 is an awesome game with a good mix of everything i love it and it is number 2 according to gamespy. (i like the vehicles [most games are taking up the renegade style now of vehicles now] but this is generally a good game)
>C&C renegade is an excellent game that has lots of potential and is very fun i love it (small numbers of player or high pings are the problems here)
>Vietcong is a good tough game which take skill and practice it doesnt have that many players but we all love it really. (my favourite game. look out for me as SW-hellswolfman)
>aliens versus predator2 is a nice gruesome game with good elements and some cute little aliens and some big cudly guns i love it too (so what if im a strange man)

so where will online games take us next and can they ever blend the bets things of ww2, vietnam, outer space and modern anti terrorists units into one beautiful game..... NAH course they cnat but they can improve this lot

and of course jediknight3 comes out soon and i loved the previous ones (i didnt talk about them above cos i wasnt any good at them.

SO CAN THEY MAKE AN ONLINE GAME THAT WILL PASS MY TEST OF EXCELENCE [of course not unless they pay me]

U god damn right about counterstrike.

i never use gamespy arcade cept for getting demos.

i love BF1942 but i think vietcong is better i need some more realism sometimes. (and i get anoyed on bf1942 with submarine torpedo's being so weak)

and u are so right about my spelling bu what do you expect from someone who spends his english lessons looking down some birds top.

Just a small collection, "c ya tomorrow", "games r fun", "console r a waste", "u have", "u cant" and so on and so forth.

Anyway, this is straying from the point of the original post, so I'll rap it up by saying: Battlefield 1942 is the best online FPS out there, Gamespy is an absolute rubbish piece of software, Online gaming is *not* the future of multiplayer gaming or gaming in general and Counterstrike is utter pish.
