Fun is an interesting metric, obviously subjective for everyone.

Single Player: Have to think

Multiplayer: Medal of Honor Allied Assault MOHAA

I was in a clan, played matches, was on ventrillo.... some really fun times.

I used the moniker Ares back then as well.

I will give my most enjoyable story from those days.

We did a snipers-only scrimmage against a rival clan.... 10 on 10.

All you got was a bolt-action sniper, and an empty pistol for melee if ammo ran out.

It was the V2 rocket facility.... Allied team, start in courtyard and go thru the facility to attack the control room and rocket.

We go in and my team gets fucking demolished, by the time I neared the control room I had killed 2, and it was down to me vs 6 opponents.

Eh **** it, right? I have no fucking chance, I was always mediocre with the sniper, so I will charge the objective, try to set it, and then see if I can kill any of them.

9 dudes on my team are dead and just watching from 3rd person observer, giving me advice.

One of them is a German dude, who speaks English, but with a thick German accent, this will come in to play shortly.

So I make my move.... 3 guys are defending the control room, I engage the first one and the other 2 rush in to swarm me.

There isn't much space, so I retreat back into a bigger room... we're all shooting and bunny hopping and leaning.

They follow me, I manage to kill one, and then run back towards the control room as another one comes rushing in from the catwalk outside.

It is back to 3 on 1, they have 5 guys.

Again with 3 dudes we're shooting in this confined space, and so I run into the control room and they follow.

I jump on the window sill, crouch, and jump to the catwalk outside where another of them is coming, and I pop him as he runs, now they have 4 guys.

I open the door and go back at the 3 guys inside, but now it is 4... the last guy comes in from where I had come in.

Now all 5 of us are in this confined area.... the whole time, leaning, shooting, bunny hopping like lunatics.

This time it works to my advantage.... one of them tries to shoot me and kills his buddy, back to 3 on 1.

I get a lucky shot and kill another of them, hopping in the air doing 360s and shit.

This is when the German guy screams into his mic, "DANCE ARES, DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Now I'm lmao, still trying to win... it is only 2 on 1.

I run into the control room, thru it, and out into the adjoining hall that leads to another catwalk.

I go out on the catwalk where you can look into the control room... one waiting for me to do it and tries to pop me, he hits me but im not dead... 4 health.

His buddy chased me, and as I lean back inside the hallway he comes thru the control room door and I pop him.

I immediately lean back outside and the last guy who shot me now hides in that adjoining small space.

I jump the catwalk into the control room window, then jump to the opposing catwalk and rush inside the confined space to surprise the last guy.... we get into a 1v1 sniper duel, leaning left and right trying to line up a shot.

After like 6 or 7 shots I hit him in the head and win the round.

The vent line erupts in cheers lol

Hands down the most fun I ever had playing an FPS or multiplayer in general.

And the clan we were playing was a top 5 clan... they were really good... I just had a horseshoe stuck up my ass for that one round.

Dance I did....

nobody cares

Most fun single player: Syndicate Wars

Most fun multiplayer: the first Red Dead Redemption (because it is the only multiplayer I ever played, and I would wait for people to pick me up in their conestoga wagons, I would light some dynamite, and jump out; I was young)

I quit gaming like 10 years ago so my answers will be a bit dated.

Multiplayer: Tough one. I started online gaming playing Ghost Recon 2 on the PS2. Was in a clan that was pretty tight and played on GameBattles. The clan I was in ended up migrating to CoD and Halo so that was cool. Got really good and it was a really competitive community.

I'll also say Halo 3. I could play that shit for 24 hours.

Single Player: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

 

[Burque]

I will drop some old school bombs here.

Single and multi: Diablo 2 or StarCraft

Multi: counter strike. I favored the early versions. I still play source over go, but the betas and 1.x's were where it was at.

Multi: Counter Strike in beta was my go to for years. Have tried to get into CS GO or Source, but by the time I circled back my PC was dated and it didn't run well at all. Was way too addicted to that game during Middle/High School/College. Played for years. In clans and tournaments.

Single Player: Really old school... I still dig some Sega: Streets of Rage (any edition). Mindless butt kicking. I also still enjoy some SNES Super Mario World.

Madden on the sega back in the very early 90s.

Was in the army and we had huge tournaments in the barracks.



Single player hard to say but maybe civ on the apple back in the 80s

Man, I also played the shit out of the game. Was in a couple of clans, only one of them was ever competitive though, the first one was more of a joke. My friends outright refused to play with me in that game after I beat them at a internet cafe going 5 on 1 vs them and still winning lol.

Then everyone just became cheaters and ruined the game.

None. Only total dweebuses have fun playing video games.

I remember having to host w/e the anti-cheating software was for our server for some matches.

I had a 2nd computer... it was old, but it could run that software and not bog me or any of the other guys on the team down, so I would host it if our clan leader dude couldn't.

I played one last time with cheats on a public server.... kinda hilarious when you can see thru walls and shit.

Single player? Too many, IDK. Maybe Vice City? Strictly from a "fun" and not just saying best or favorite, close to perfect size open world game IMO, you don't need to live in the game for months to do everything and you can stop and pick it up at any time. IMO most "fun". Just wish that with any renderware engine GTA, the executable libs would get re-released with code compiled for 64-bit arcs so there weren't all these memory workarounds. Yes, the modding community has done a good job, but even they get frustrated by the limits and buggy hacks to get around the limits on GTA3/VC/SA/*Stories releases. DMA was all about keeping games mod friendly, but new directions after DMA was ripped apart by Take Two, they just got sloppy as hell to make things a bit biased towards MIPS arc(PS2 and what people felt would be the future mobile ARC of choice before ARM opened licensing considerably. That's a topic of its own, as MIPS scales considerably better and maybe another industry choice fuckup that keeps us all slightly more limited than we should be. Hindsight... meh).

Probably played City of Heroes online the most for multiplayer games. Went through the whole MMO thing for a few years and it was the only one that really sucked me in to actually play the missions/quests with people consistently, and not just guild/farm and hang out socially.
