First and foremost, I'm an recovering online gaming addict and that shit last maybe 30 minutes out of rehab. Seriously, online gaming is a huge part of gaming and most of you gaming heads - probably wouldn't look twice at a game if there wasn't a sign of multiplayer included. I've played a ton of multiplayer games and my favorite ones thus far are: Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Gears of War, Battlefield: Bad Company, Halo 3 and Team Fortress 2.

I must say out of all of those I've mentioned - Team Fortress 2 has to be the most under appreciated.

Man i have been Re-hooked to Team Fortress 2 in the last few days.  The new meaningful achievements system is great.  Can't wait to see what class they work on next.

I was addicted to Halo 2 online. Played that game for 2 straight years. I had a Gears of War phase for like 8 months then a Call of Duty 4 phase. At the moment, I have been trying to get into Metal Gear Online but I suck at it.

Warhawk and MGO are both really awesome. But I can't stand CoD4 anymore. The only way I can enjoy it is if I play it once a month. Any more than that and I get the crap bored out of me.

If you like, but you can leave it up - if you think you need protecting.

I didn't really like Team Fortress 2. I stopped playing COD4 for the same reason I stopped playing Halo 3 until I realized the MLG playlist was there.

I hate radars, I think it's the worst thing to be in a multiplayer game. All people do is camp and wait until someone shows up on the radar.

Even aside from radars, each game has flaws which make me not really take them serious at all. I alternate on a weekly basis of what to play.

I like online gaming, but I prefer RPG's for the most part, so I don't play many. COD4 and Halo 3 are very fun.

MAG - Massive Action Game is another multiplayer game that looks like it has great potential. The game is being develop by Zipper Interactive the developer behind the upcoming tactical shooter SOCOM: Confrontation.

Team Fortress 2 may be the best online shooter I've ever played.

By the way, how the heck do you get addicted? It's not even an MMO!

It's fun and all, but even I get tired after sinking hours on it.

I'm not much of an online gamer. If I do play online it's likely because of achievements or some of my friends wanting me to tag along.

I'm not a huge online multiplayer gamer, but I was addicted to Halo 3's online, and I am now addicted to Team Fortress 2.

What do you mean, it's not an MMO? A game doesn't have to be an MMORPG to have addictive online gameplay. They're many people who listed long gaming sprees based off - Call of Duty 4, Halo 3, Warhawk, Team Fortress 2, Battlefield: Bad Company... etc.

Most shooters get repetitive after a few hours. At least, for me.

There are tons of ppl that play FPS's for hours on end.  I use to play CS for like 6 hours a day every day for months.   Hell half of that time was sunk into one map. (Dust...)  There are many ways to make it diferent every round.  Take a sniper rifle and hang back, or get a Uzi and run rush, take the M60 and laydown cover fire.

I tried CS 1.6 a while ago. Every round was identical. People buy the same weapons. People camp in the same spots. There's some variety, but its not that much.

Be real its not identical.  Each player does something different each round.  There is no way they do the exact same thing otherwise they would be robots not humans.   You can't buy the same guns if you loss a few rounds.  Your in the poor house and have to by a Deagle from time to time or skip out on the nads.   You also can't by the better weapons when you first start off it takes at least 2 rounds to get enough to buy the AR or the AK.

Yeah, but that's still not much variety.
