wow man - nicely put!StarBound wrote:Doom got FPS titles rolling, Quake made them 3D, Half-life made them more focused with a story.
Before Diablo there was Ultima.
Warcraft and Command & Conquer were some of the better RTS games but Dune 2 was before that.
Actually Wolfenstein 3D was released a year before doom, and was the first FPS game....so technically speaking it helped to popularize the genre.....StarBound wrote:Doom got FPS titles rolling, Quake made them 3D, Half-life made them more focused with a story.

Nope MIDI Maze 1987 for atari was sort of the first one or the first to adopt the type of game play, Rise of the Triad was released in 1994......StarBound wrote:I know. I played wolfenstein because the home pc couldnt run doom. It was a 286 still. As far as wolf 3d vs doom the reason behind it was that doom made the bigger impact. Wolf 3d wasnt the first fps either. I think Rise of the Triad was before wolf 3d.

What about pac man and space invaders .StarBound wrote:Lies. Greatest game of all time is Sonic 3 & Knuckles.
How did we miss Simcity 2000?
+1, where would we be without it . I still enjoyed space invaders more and DOOM was just awesome at the time(I was 4-5 when I played it for the first time)-Prometheus- wrote:Has to be Pong, started it all
Nice list There are a few titles there I've never heard of before, which seem to be worth further investigation. Thief and Operation Flashpoint are two I'll definitely be playing in the near future, thanks for the reminder!-Prometheus- wrote:The Neverhood
The Myst series. Still looking for Myst 3 and Uru before I can continue.
MDK
Commandos
Dark Reign
Thief
Hitman
Operation Flashpoint
Beyond Good and Evil
Splinter Cell
CS might have made it main stream but I think Hidden & Dangerous (1&2) started it.
Also if you can get your hands on two interesting titles, Project Eden and The Nomad Soul.
