TF2... without... hats? Sorry, I don't get you.

When my friend was talking about the stuff in the game it sounded like TF2, so now we all call it TF2: Hatless Edition.

Oh, does Portal count as a FPS? Cool, I have played the first one on the PC and 360. (i thought it was just a puzzle game.)

No. You use a gun, but you don't shoot things with it. Hell, I associate the shooters in general as games you going around killing other things and you don't really kills things in Portal last I checked so imo it's not really a shooter.

You have a gun, you shoot things creating a portal and then killing robots and that computer at the end , you are in First Person view , therefore its a First-person shooter ;D

You shoot walls and you don't even shoot the robots. You have stuff fall on them.

And yes, technically it meets the definition of a FPS, but the degree at which it is a strategy game makes that "FPSness" mute to the point of being irrelevant.

the closest I can see Portal being an FPS is in Portal 2 where you pick up the reflection cubes and mirror the lasers off it to blow up the sentry guns

I'm really good when it comes to FPS. Im mainly 360 but i play PS3 as well. On PC i am a MMORPG person that likes forum community's. I have 4 accounts made just so i can start over and over on CoD MW2 when i reach 10th 70. I have every Halo made, even Waypoint and Wars. Im not MLG anymore, The military took that away from me but i am still great. third person shooters aren't my fav but i still love Lost Planet 2 and 3rd person on MW2.

Halo : Mindless Shooting At Its Greatest.

I've only just recently bought TF2, so, yeah, total n00b here. But from what I've played in the offline mode, I'm not terrible, but in no way the best.

There's not much point in offline mode in my opinion, TF2 is an extremely noob-friendly game. Just join a random server with a playercount around 12-18, pick soldier or medic and ask people for beginner tips as you play.

PC is a little better for the FPS. Now, had you talked 3rd person melee, obviously the console is better

Console isn't better for 3rd person melee unless you mean 2D type games.

Had a go at Doom on Nightmare difficulty today. What a Rush! :D No Checkpoints, Limited Armor, Health & Ammo supplies (Trust me, I only had my Chainsaw on many occasions) and the sense of accomplishment when you find a secret Cache of Supplies. I really miss those days.

I'm alright at them, I'm not a total FPS kind of guy, I'm no poser. I'm an all around gamer but I've played a few:
[list]
[*]Many Medal of Honor Games
[*]a few more recent COD games
[*]Killzone
[*]Bioshock
[/list]
That's the gist of it.

oh and PS2+3 as the consoles. the PS2 is just for the first Killzone and a few Medal of Honor ones.
