1. Battlezone II: Combat Commander (1999 Video Game)
E | Action
Featured game.
Director: George Collins | Stars: James Warwick, Peter Jessop, Lance LeGault, Tasia Valenza

Nearly 13 years on from its release and Battlezone II still has a thriving community of players, modders and map-makers - despite never being very big in the first place. This highly-underrated hybrid game fuses the adrenalin of first-person shooter with the tactics and planning of real-time strategy. Definitely the best game I've ever played. BATTLEZONE II WILL NEVER DIE!
2. Battlezone (1998 Video Game)
E | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
The 1969 moon landing was a cover up, but not in the way that conspiracy theorists predicted. It was a distraction from the rockets the military secretly sent to the moon to investigate a ... See full synopsis »

This was the first game that I'm aware of to blend FPS with RTS. Everything was great about it - the gameplay, the storyline and even the graphics weren't to shoddy for a 90s game. Even more importantly, it set the stage for Battlezone II.
3. Halo: Combat Evolved (2001 Video Game)
M | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
Super-soldier John-117, Master Chief of the United Nations Space Command, must battle a genocidal alien race known as the Covenant following his violent crash-landing on Halo, an ancient and mysterious ring-world.
Director: Jason Jones | Stars: Jen Taylor, Pete Stacker, Tim Dadabo, Steve Downes

Halo revolutionised first-person shooter games, showing the world that shooters CAN be played on consoles. More than that, though, was how brilliantly the game was done. As I played it I felt as if I actually *was* saving the universe, and every level had a sense of 'epicness' (which the sequels unfortunately lacked). In addition, it has the best and most memorable music score out of any game I've ever played - and most movies too.
4. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (2010 Video Game)
M | Action, Adventure, Comedy
Bravo 2 are back, and are wanting to go home more than ever.
Directors: Patrick Bach, Tobias Falk, Lars Gustavsson | Stars: David Menkin, Bruce Lester-Johnson, Nigel Whitmey, Richard Lynson
Votes: 4,662
A mediocre single-player campaign is more than made up for by a thoroughly enjoyable and memorable multiplayer, which it is almost impossible to get bored of.
5. Halo 2 (2004 Video Game)
M | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
As the alien Covenant invade Earth, the Master Chief must defend humanity's homeworld whilst discovering more about the rings called "Halo."
Stars: Dee Bradley Baker, Julie Benz, Hamilton Camp, Tim Dadabo

While the single player campaign in Halo 2 was nowhere near as fun, exciting, epic or engaging as the first (it's still a pretty good campaign, though), the game makes up for it with an awesome multiplayer. Halo games always felt like a challenge of skill, whereas CoD games just seem to me to be down to luck.
6. Batman: Arkham Knight (2015 Video Game)
M | Action, Crime, Mystery
With his back against the wall, Batman turns to his closest allies to help him save Gotham City from the clutches of Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight's army. A familiar face also returns to give The Dark Knight a message he cannot ignore.

7. Batman: Arkham Origins (2013 Video Game)

Director: Tom Keegan | Stars: Gideon Emery, Glenn Morshower, Thor Edgell, Mark Ivanir

This game is more like a warfare simulator than a game. It is realistic in almost every possible way a game can be without making it unplayable. In BF3, you don't just run around the place shooting at people and knifing them over five-metre distances like in Call of Duty. You move from cover to cover, trying to flank your enemy and working with your team. Grenades and rockets will blow buildings to pieces. And, unlike CoD, you can drive vehicles. There is no other way of saying it. Battlefield 3 IS warfare.
11. Star Wars: Jedi Knight II - Jedi Outcast (2002 Video Game)
T | Action, Adventure, Fantasy
