Top 10 shooters of 2007
Every site has its share of year-end awards, so here’s FPS Rantings’ take on the best shooters this year. Yes, they’re placed in order of awesomeness.
- The Orange Box
- Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
- Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 (Xbox 360 version)
- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
- Bioshock
- Halo 3
- Crysis
- Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas
- Warhawk
- Unreal Tournament 3
What are your Top 10 shooters for 2007?
I don’t think anyone can argue the Orange Box’s awesomeness, but in my opinion Bioshock should be higher on the list.
I thought about Bioshock for quite a while, honestly. While the game remains to be fantastic, certain annoyances dampened my enjoyment of the game.
This is why Bioshock went down several notches in my book.
How did COD4 rank lower than GRAW2?
Crysis could have been righteous, but I don’t have the horsepower to run it the way I’d like.
You have a point about the splicers.
Interesting list, quite unconventional to the typical FPS fanboy. But I really dig that. ^_^

Well, this is my personal list, so I reckon it would be different compared to every person’s Top 10. I’ve had my hand at both GRAW2 and CoD4, and I like GRAW2 better. However, both games are still awesome, so there’s no need to worry. ;)
Crysis’ punishing requirements is what hurt the game in my list.
@Daniel
How is it unconventional? Care to share your list? :)
My opinion is that the orange box is the best shooting game but crysis should have got a better score.
Tell me Dan, can your non-Core 2, one-year-old PC run Crysis with ALL the purdy effects? Without a hitch? At the highest detail?
If you can, then I want your PC. If you CAN’T, then why do you think Crysis should be higher in the top 10? Because of its gameplay?
How am I supposed to experience its gameplay if 1) the game runs like a slideshow or 2) I can’t run Crysis at all?
Honestly, Crysis is the only game I haven’t played in this list. But from what I’ve heard, it’s really a very good shooter. However, it’s no use to me since I can’t run it. That said, I think Crysis is fortunate that it’s in my top 10 list.
