Nope.

The chances of Half Life 3 are basically zero.

I have played both recent wolves
- NO is good to start, slightly fades, and has one of the worst end bosses ever. [8] cos of freshness and fun shooting shit down willy nilly but also offering a bit of sneaky sneaky
- OB OS more of the same for the first half (so a bit meh), but then goes amusingly batshit. Quite a bit shorter, and a [7].

Titty 2 also a [7], doom a stingy [8]. My marks skewed by me sucking at this genre and also not enjoying it overly.

Was SpecOps 3P??

FEAR 2 on last gen had a great single player campaign.

I gave up on blops and blops 3 pretty quickly, found them both too by the numbers plus 3 was just odd.

Destiny sp was dreadful.

I loved halo 3 and quite liked reach, have avoided 4&5.

I very my doubt I'll be buying another FPS any time soon, it just all seems to be the same or worse than last gen. I think the genre has run its course.

I think the halos have been emblematic of what the OP is on about. Timeline marries up too.

last great Halo campaigns were H3/ODST. 

Reach was uneven as hell, and it's miriad issues with both MP and SP had a lot to do with SP mechanics not working in MP and vice versa. What up bloom. the shooting mechanics were frustrating in MP. Bloom was a fine mechanic for the SP. In FF, the enemies and nice timing of headshots etc worked really well. In MP, where the mechanics around aiming had basically been point and shoot, bloom was frustrating as hell. 

The re-using of sections/maps in SP, FF and MP could have worked, but it just ended up compromising a lot of the play spaces.

FF maps were awesome, for instance, but then somehow didn't work anywhere near as well as SP campaign spaces where the player just went a to b to c.

H4 and and H5 campaigns are both basically gash. By H5 the MP mechanics are freakin top notch and the player movement is awesome, however, it doesn't translate to the SP at all, really. The few spots where you can use clamber etc in SP are so by the numbers it's ridic.

I'd suggest the issue is the difference in what you're shooting. MP you're shooting other spartans, who move way differently, in campaign, it's a whole raft of different types of enemies, and everything about how the guns and the enemies interact is different to MP. 

Mp is where the focus is with h5, so the campaign just turns into an afterthought, IMO. 

(I'd actually prefer it if the MP turned into a purely DL/running experience, and the campaigns were a whole other team and disc releases.)

I like that metro has no MP. From what I've seen, a lot fo the time, you're shooting no human monsters, so it's best to focus on SP, rather than turn mechanics designed around shooting monsters into human v human. 

Waffling.

Anyone bored of FPS campaigns should give DOOM a try because it's often sub-£20 and it is a good chunk of stupidly fast, retro-informed modern shooting fun. It covers itself, and you, in gory glory.

It's a first person Revengeance.

Nay PC but much tar.

Did anyone ever complete RAGE on the previous generation? It was a massive sales flop, the core shooter mechanics were suppose to be solid. I briefly played it but never went back to it.

Aye, I did like it, but original FEAR is my choice. I really wanna play them again. So replayable. Original FEAR is one of my most played single player games.

I'm with DS on Rage (Jackal canyon oh my!) and the chuffing magnificent Blands 2. A numberwang I can actually appreciate and oozing personally. Also Handsome Jack is the very bestest of baddies.

I'll get to Doom eventually, but there's something else taking up all my time right now.

Fear 1 and 2 were great, as was Call of Juarez Gunslinger. There's something missing from most FPS campaigns these days but not sure what it is. Nothing has come close to the brilliance of Half Life 2 or Halo 3. Titanfall 2 was fine but a bit vacuous and wishy washy.

I love the immersion and many campaigns just seem to lack it.

Crysis 3?  Really?  I mean 2 wasn't exactly great either.

2nd list better and shorter than the ign one

Frankly.
