"Best single player first/3rd person shooter campaign by year?"My vote for 2019 FPS game of year has to be Insurgency Sandstorm. Its Coop against Bots is very good and the graphics and playability are unmatched from anything I have played yet.
Try it and see if you dont agree.

Love the comic, but that is my opinion. We're talking about campaigns here, not graphics, and I enjoyed Doom 3's much more than Airboat Simulator 2004.
Doom 3's campaign was interesting and thematic, making me want to continuously push forward to see what comes next. It was different from the original games, yes, but I thoroughly adore and enjoy all the games in the series.I still think Doom 3 is one of the most overrated games of all time. Instead of capturing the feeling of battling hordes of demons, they kept going for the same jump scare vs. a normal 'ol imp. It was an interesting idea, but it failed at nearly everything IMO. The best thing about it was that the id4 engine was able to do a lot of neat things in Prey.
Far Cry, Half-Life 2, and even Halo 2 all came out in 2004 and were way better IMO.

OK, Mass Effect and Mafia aren't typical shooters, but you do spend much of your time shooting in them

Far Cry's campaign was abysmal after the first two missions, which were only about 15% of the game. Halo 2 starts out great, but gets bogged down by the Arbiter's missions. Besides, this is a PC thread, and the PC version of Halo 2 didn't come out until 2007 when it was up against games like STALKER, Bioshock, and Crysis.
Do you not read topic titles?A massive chunk of the above list are 3rd person shooters. The original poster asked specifically about "fps" games which are "first person shooters", and not third person shooters. Now, if the original poster decides that he wants third person shooter recommendations as well then I'd agree with most of that list despite many of those games being very old. Almost that entire list are games I've played and found to be excellent.

You have to play Far Cry on the hardest difficulty for it to really shine, as a shoot em up it is not really outstanding. But on realistic difficulty you have to sneak around in it most of the time, and it becomes a tactical shooter at that point.I liked Doom 3 for what it was trying to do.
I played Far Cry 3 and enjoyed it. Went back after everyone raving about how much the original was better. Put about 30 minutes into it and realized it sucks. Maybe at the time it was amazing but it hasn't aged well at all.
Yeah, you must have forgotten, or simply jumped the gun. You are really incapable of admitting that you were wrong just once?Yes, but I based my post off the original post. I read several responses and must have forgotten that.

2020 - FINAL FANTASY 7
2016 - Titanfall 2 doesn't get enough love. Great campaign. Doom was great for 2016 as well but I thought it could have been a bit shorter IMO.
I think all the other years have been covered well enough.
I don't know man. I see lot of love for TF2 here. I will say I was skeptical, but picked it up for $5 last year... the campaign is far too good for what was pushed as a multi-player twitch FPS. I hope whoever worked on it got some ssrious creds.

Leave Dan alone! Anyway. Yeah. The new metro is pretty excellent.
