First FPS for you?

[The Resident]

See if the oldschoolers remember this one -

My first FPS was Catacomb Abyss

Ah yes, exciting fireball-hurling action in glorious 16-color EGA! Of course Wolf3d was VGA and made my eyeballs pop out.

Doom was truly the best though. The Doom 1 episode 1 experience remains the standard by which I measure fun in a FPS. Of course to go back and play it now, it seems really lame and all, but I have yet to re-claim that level of immersion I felt back then.

I got a late start on FPS's compared to most of you. HL1 was the first FPS I played.

The very first FPS type game I played was on the Sega Genisis. It was a game called Zero Tolerance. It was the first time I played an FPS game and I have been hooked ever since.

first FPS that really wowed me though was the leaked doom1 beta(or alpha, cant remember). it had no sound, and the bfg shot millions of green plasma balls.

We need a poll. Looks like most people it was wolf3d and coming in 2nd was doom.

Though DOOM was my first, I really liked "HeXen" for the n64 as well.
