    To be honest, iv had far more entertainment from playing online modifcations than actual games. Some of the best years of gaming i had online were back in 1998-2000 playing the likes of Team Fortress and Counter strike (when they first came out), Action Half Life, Sven Co-op etc

    It's Quite hard for me to pin point one though that's quite recent, so im going to go with either Battlefield 2142 or Rainbow Six: Vegas 2

    Star Wars Battlefront 2 was also quite epic.

    But Battlefield 2 gets my vote for sure. No contest.

    For me, honorable mention to Soldier of Fortune 2.

    And L4D! wtf kind of Poll is this?! I call shennanigans.

    It would be enough to have one Battlefield option, one counterstrike option, MoH option, etc etc.

    Poll is loaded.

    I second the motion of shenanigans.

    Can't believe TF2 isn't on that list.

    No other game before or since has given such an illusion of choice relating to play styles, plot progression, item usage, item customisation, level design, etc. The perfect polish of this futuristic cyberpunk world where the future is not so far fetched yet balanced for gameplay elements. The dated graphics and animations do not limit how immersive this experience is, while the combat can be new and exciting not depending on each play through but as you play. It is a shame that when you complete it many times in many different ways that eventually the prestige dulls and the turns are easily seen. However like many good magic acts the first 3-4 times are spellbinding and at 13 - 15 hours a play through, well I doubt people that have played the game could measure how much time they spent on it....

    Don't remember Deus Ex being very multiplayer focused. Wasn't even included in the original release.

    Where is MGO???:mad:
    While MGO is a great online component of a great game, its not an FPS.

    Metal Gear solid is not an FPS, first person shooters ONLY.
    I forgot TF2 and a few others so could a mod add them?

    Well Gears of War is up there so only fair MetalGearOnline can be included too.

    Its a fairly poor list to be honest, no HL2 Deathmatch....you can throw TOILETS at people!!!!! Come on.....

    Theres one game not on that list - Natural Selection - anyone who has played it knows what I mean (a mod for half life)

    On the list, hmmm, Battlefield 2, just for the sheer fun and great moments in it.

    Still waiting on a FPS multiplayer to surpass Planetside, sure CoD 4/6 is great fun in small doses but Planetside was legendary.

    Unreal 2k4/3, I would have separated them out as two games, you had to be there, but 2k3 was fairly stodgy and buggy when it first appeared.

    HL2DM for me. Game itself was as buggy as **** at times, but it's the game i had most fun on thanks to a few great communities. Bunny hoppping around like a lunatic while being able to snipe people with the mag was f*cking great craic.

    I found Swat 4 to be the most fun but if you're talking in relative time I'd say Perfect Dark would run it very close

    No Enemy Territory: Quake Wars? I'd vote this if it was there!

    A lot of people seem to be confusing what best FPS of the decade actually means (mentioning Half-Life, TFC etc.), so you may want to clarify the title. 'Most enjoyable multiplayer FPS of the 2000s' or something.

    And Gears of War is not an FPS.

    Then bf2, I thought DC was far better but bf2 was better then anything else going. And DC had aged.

    X-fire has me down as over 1000 hours logged on bf2. Was in a clan for 3+ years playing that game (from dc) and its mods.
