    Can anyone please reccommend a good first person shooter for PS2??

    I have just completed Black and am having withdrawel symptoms.

    I picked up Medal Of Honour and Rainbow Six and they both suck compared to Black. :(

    Thanks!

    King Kong is really good. Theres a couple of sections where you play as Kong in 3rd person but the majority of the game is in 1st person. Youd get it for nothing now in the shops too used.

    Either of the Brothers In Arms games are good as well.

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein was a great WW2 / horror game that literally lasted for ever to play. Great story, great action and plenty of those "wtf" moments when the monsters come at you round the corner. The graphics might seem a little dated now but you'll get your money's worth as you'll have hours and hours and hours of entertainment from it. You can't say that about most ps3 games that you can finish in a weekend.

    I might go out and buy it again now :D

    Oh and you could also consider the original Red Faction. Another great game that might also seem a little dated but good story and great action. It was also ground breaking in its day as you could destroy some of the environment to create new pathways to your objectives.

    I had no idea Black was that good. I thought everyone said it was a let down on release?

    Guys, I thought this thread was deleted and started another so perhaps if there are any more replies, you could put them here:

    It got really good reviews when it came out but I thought it was a load of garbage. Impressive visuals but the level design was miserable and AI was as think as two short planks. Didn't help that it lasted about 3 and a half hours on Normal.

    My advice don't bother.

    In fact don't bother with any FPS games on the PS2 they are all garbage. Cold Winter might be good, heard nothing but good things but I haven't played it and Timesplitters is useless unless in multiplayer and even then I think it's really over rated.

    You can't go wrong with TimeSplitters 2 in single player. Its basically Goldeneye!

    The first level is decent, the rest is pretty mediocre.

    Also goldeneye has dated terribly. i'd go so far as to say nowadays it's ****. (prepare for the backlash!).

    Ah I have to disagree. Altho the first level is basically a copy and paste of the first goldeneye level (no bad thing)

    Dont know if it fully qualifies as a FPS but it would have to be Hitman Silent Assassin for myself?

    BTW anyone know if/when a PS3 Hitman game is coming out?
