Other good 1st person shooters similar Call of Duty?

I have been playing Call of Duty 4 Modern Warefare and I think its a pretty fun game. Lately I've been noticing some games that are shooters that are similar to Call of Duty and I was wondering which games are worth playing.

I think it was Battlefield, Medal of Honor, ands Killzone have been mentioned. Are these games fun? Are they better the CoD? Are they almost as good as CoD? & what are some other good first person shooters?

....Ayyye.

Erm...

Metro 2033 and Crysis are the best shooters of this generation. STALKER is also pretty good but a little unforgiving.

None of those games have the same feel that Call of Duty has. If you've only played the first Modern Warfare, why not try the 2nd or 3rd one? What do you like about it? The singleplayer or the multiplayer? 

You should try Duke Nukem Forever.

@Geno: But those are all great games; he said he wants some like CoD.

Ooooooooooh...

Yes, try. That's as far as anyone should go for that game.

Try Quake Live?

I heard Dwarf Fortress is similar to Call of Duty.

I found that Medal of Honor was no where near as bad as I thought it was going to be. However it is not as batshit insane as COD, they went for a more "gritty", realistic presentation.

Borderlands has the "feel" of CoD in my eyes, but the two could not be anymore different in all other aspects.

But then again just saying you like CoD4 gives me no information. Do you like the singleplayer? the multiplayer? the setting? the rewards system?

Blacklight retribution is fun and free.

If you want to try something that's a step up from CODMW, try the two Rainbow Six Vegas games. They move at a reasonable pace and have a decent arsenal. It adds some tactical gameplay, too since you'll direct your teammates to flank or surprise the enemy.

The closest experience in MP is Battlefield 3.

But then again just saying you like CoD4 gives me no information. Do you like the singleplayer? the multiplayer? the setting? the rewards system?

Yeah, I was not thinking clearly when I posted this. Probably my worst forum topic I ever posted on this website. After I posted this, I started looking into the games I listed and I realize that CoD gives off a different kind of experience. I should try those games out for myself when I get the chance.

@Vinny_Says: Yeah just saying I liked the game doesn't give out a lot of info. I like the single player mode and I like the multiplayer of the game.

Singularity is worth a punt.

Battlefield 3 is good, but it's "slower" paced than CoD. As in, run and gun works sometimes, but often you'll just get yourself killed, fast.

@ProfessorEss: In more detail, I have CoD Modern Warefare for the Xbox 360. I like the story in the singular player. I liked how the game was set in modern times unlike previous games were they were set in WW2. I don't care when the game takes place. It can be set in the old west or the year 2030 and I wouldn't care. But if they take place during the same era and don't do anything to make it different in the next game, then I start to worry.The multiplayer was fun. being able to go up against other players, even though people would take me out with a headshot oor something.

@saoakden: Just curious here but what other games do you own? Is CoD the only franchise or genre you play?

Crysis 2 multiplayer is a complete imitation of Call of Duty, if that's what you are looking for I recommend it.

@supamon: Are you refering to first person shooters? If so, I also play Halo. But I only played Halo 3.

Have you considered video games?

@Emperor_Jimmu: Huh?

What is happening here? I'm so confused. I just see a troll trolling everyone, but I think that's just my internet jadedness talking. I don't know what's real anymore.

What do you mean similar? Similar as shooting games or similar gameplay? Battlefield is way different than Cod. That have jets, tanks, random are, huge maps, lower health, no Healy regeneration, and more of a team based game. Don't get me wrong it's a fun game. Look up gameplay at YouTube to see if you like it. Medal of honor I would say is the closest to the gameplay but i don't remember it being good. Just get the news cod, modern warfare 3 is really awesome, and get modern warfare 2 if you are into the storyline.

@saoakden: I'm sorry, I'm not being helpful. This is just the most open ended question ever asked. It reminds me of a question answered on My Brother, My Brother and Me; Recommend a film other than The Lake House.

@supamon: Are you refering to first person shooters? If so, I also play Halo. But I only played Halo 3.

CoD 4 was pretty much the pinnacle of this particular brand of FPS, imo.

I assume it's either that or the poster is just really, really, really young. Like maybe ten or so.

So you don't play any other games? Halo 3 and Modern Warfare 1 are the only games you have played?

Crysis 2 and Homefront are close enough, though Call of Duty is Call of Duty and nothing worth playing is exactly like it. Battlefield looks close but is different in several enough ways to make it quite different.

For good first person shooters in general, though, try Bulletstorm, Halo Reach, Crysis 1, Bioshock, Singularity, and FEAR.

English isn't your first language, is it?

Are you putting this into Google Translate?

Csgo when that comes out. Also serious sam 3.

@supamon: In terms of first person shooters on the 360 yes. Believe me I played a bunch of other games. I have played at least 28-30 games on the 360. Oh yeah I almost forgot, I played Black Ops, I liked the game but I only played like 4 levels. That's because it was my stepbrothers game and he traded it in at gamestop.

@believer258: English is my first language. I only use google translate to translate english to spanish.

@saoakden:

Do yourself a favor and get Battlefield Bad Company 1 & 2 & BF1943. Campaigns are enjoyable enough, and depending on preference multiplayer-wise, they blow CoD:MW & sequels out of the water. Battlefield 3's Close Quarters DLC has similar gameplay to the Call of Duty type of games, and is quite successful at it too.

Also - were you born yesterday? No offense intended, just curious. Oh, and here's a montage of BF:BC 2 Vietnam - t'was hella good...

CS:Go isn't like CoD. =/

Personally I feel you will be disappointed with the single player in any Battlefield game compared to Call of Duty. Unless multiplayer is your thing Battlefield is middling.

I think while not an FPS Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter 1 & 2 are pretty good. They have the scale and setting similar to Modern Warfare and the campaign is really good, they're much more forgiving than the original game.

Another Tom Clancy title would be Rainbow Six: Vegas, again it has a decent single player, again it's more forgiving than earlier games in the franchise and it's a first person military shooter in a modern day setting.

The above titles can be picked up dirt cheap on eBay.

If you do want to do multiplayer, and only then, consider Battlefield.

Metro 2033 and Crysis are the best shooters of this generation. STALKER is also pretty good but a little unforgiving.

Is this someones mum?

Ya but its a good game.

@saoakden: Well, the problem is Modern Warfare has pretty much cornered the market for modern shooters so there isn't a lot of choices for modern shooters except for Battlefield and Medal of honor.

You didn't state whether you minded sci-fi but there are quite a few good sci-fi shooters on the market. There are plenty of good suggestions in this thread already but I'll say try Bioshock series, Syndicate, Halo Reach/ODST and Rage.

Hmm, you really think M2033 is on par with those two FPS titans?

I really didn't like Metro 2033 all that much, but I'm right there with you with Crysis. Might be my favourite FPS of all time.

@supamon: Thats what Im starting to figure out. Call of Duty Modern Warefare was given to me as a gift and I just tried it out.

I really don't mind sci-fi shooters. The Sci-fi games come out with interesting weapons and interesting gameplay. I mentioned I played Halo 3. I heard of Rage, it sounds interesting. I have defintely heard of Bioshock before. I never bother to pick up the game when it first came out because at the time I didn't own a Xbox 360. I want to pick up the Halo games but I need money and I have never heard of the game Syndicate. Some of the other games that were mentioned earlier sound interesting as well. I think a few people mentioned Crysis 2. I'm not 100% sure who brought it up on this forum.

A game like Call Of Duty 4.. hmm.. Nope can't think of any.

batlefield 3/bdcompany 1 and 2?

Blacklight: Retribution is decent. More customization and it's free too.
