What are some of your favorite lesser-known FPS games for PC? Probably my favorite genre + console combo.

WW2 GI (build engine)
and Nam also called Napalm - same engine

Yeah, similar to bitgamer with a focus on older games. People give out invites here all the time, if I had one I'd send it your way. If you lurk here often though I'm sure you'll get one eventually

Shogo was the first FPS game I could play without throwing up from motion sickness. I'd always pick the mech with the power pole or whatever.

Original Game had one of the best storylines I have ever seen. Didn't care for the sequel, but still played it.

Chasm: The Rift

It's actually a 2.5D engine. They used 3D models for all the moving objects, and placed them around the map to fake 3D details.

Shoot, I play quite a number of games just fine on Windows 8. Some games need some tweaking but they work just fine out of the box mostly.

The game won't even start anymore. I get a small black box that says Shogo and "not responding" before it eventually crashes. Strangely enough the first time I run it after an install it works fine. Its when I start the game again after exiting it will no longer work.

Does this still work on W7? I thought it was one of the better Q2-engine games.

They really made you feel powerful as fuck in that game.

Too bad the onfoot sections weren't as fun.

made by the guys who ended up doing Cryostasis, great game.

Chasm is rather simple, but totally worth giving a shot.
