Hey all,
Ghost dropping by again.
Hope none of you had given up on me ever showing myself here again.
After having finished
Return to Castle Wolfenstein I am really in the mood for a decent sci-fi ish FPS game again, but unfortunate I have played all the best known ones such as its sequel Wolfenstein 2009, Jedi Knight Outcast and Academy, Elite Force 1 and 2, DSN The Fallen, Singularity, Half Life games (of course), Doom 3 and expansion, Quake 4, and even FPS like games such as Deus Ex, Invisible War, Human Revolution, The Fall.
Are there any decent FPS games I may have overlooked that are worth playing?
Please don't recommend Wolfenstein The New Order, for personal reasons I don't like that game but I do intend to play its stand alone expansion pack The Old Blood.
I also have Far Cry Blood Dragon but I don't want Uplay on my PC.
Oh and just in case, yes, I have played all the Mass Effect games, Dead Space 1, Aliens Colonial Marines (Alien Isolation but that is not really a FPS).
Hope people have some recommendations.

Star Trek Elite Forces 1 and 2. Great games.
Borderlands
Crisis series
Warhammer 40K: Space Marine
System Shock 2
Bioshock series
Prey
Red Faction series
Chronicles of Riddick
Or more RPG orientated, have you ever played the Knights of the Old Republic games? IMO a couple of the best games ever made.
Playstation exclusives include Killzone and Resistance series.

Hey
Dave
>Borderlands
Played 1, its DLCs, and the start of B2.
I liked parts of B1 but after a while of playing B2 I realized that the particular gameplay was not really my taste. I also did not really enjoy the humor.
>Crisis series
Can't play 1 because of Securom. I bought 2 in advance for a Star Trek FPS mod that got cancelled. On its own I found it rather average and not really engaging.
>Warhammer 40K: Space Marine
Got that one and played it to the finish. Not bad but not a fan of the Warhammer 40K universe.
>System Shock 2
Got that one back when it was released. Pretty fun game at the time but I have come to enjoy Deus Ex more.
>Bioshock series
I got Bioshock 1 back when it was advertised as a spiritual sequel to System Shock 2. But I found the gameplay rather repetitive and boring and I found the storyline somewhat pretentious to be honest.
The writers seem to love to bring up questions on society, merits of exceptional individuals, and so on, but I got the feeling that a lot of it was just dress up to make the game world feel more complex than it really was.
>Prey
Okay, never played that one but I don't think its on Steam any more.
>Red Faction series
Played all three but I found them somewhat boring after a while. I understand they finally removed GFWL from Faction 2.
>Chronicles of Riddick
Tried it, not really my game. The second one also comes with this nasty DRM.
>Or more RPG orientated, have you ever played the Knights of the Old Republic games? IMO a couple of the best games ever made.
Yep, played both with two in general being my favourite. I installed the patch that put back in all the cut content as well as new places and quests.
A damn shame they made SWTOR instead of a KOTOR3 as I found TOR's storyline rather average.
Basically it copies the classic trilogy and the writers even ripped off KOTOR2 after just plain copying Darth Nihilus. Basically the Sith Emperor is Palpatine and Nihilus combined.
>Playstation exclusives include Killzone and Resistance series.
I found Killzone really overdone on 'the evils of war' and everything that has to do with that.
Played all the Resistance games actually with the exception of Burning Skies as I don't have a Vita.
Teho
>Crack Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon and play it, it's bloody brilliant!
I liked what I saw when I played a cracked copy but I got rather worried when I closed the game and I got a message that it had tried to link up to some kind of network.
