Before SEIV the game I played the most was Tribes and Tribes 2.
They both are MP first person based games, but are so very much more than any other game on the market in that classification.
You have to use strategy, cunning, tactics, and even a bit of bravery and cowerice to survive. Tribes made HL/CS look like childs play. The interaction, the chat, the players, the game play, and above all esle, the customizability of the game has only been equaled by SEIV. So ya, it is a damn fine game indeed and I am proud to say I love it.
They both are great games, but Tribes did a better job of drawing you into twelve hour gaming sessions better than Tribes 2 did so Tribes is by far my favorate with Tribes 2 coming in after SEIV.
There is also Rebellion and BOTF for those who enjoy good turn based and RTS games.
I disliked Empire Earth and many previous cloans of AOE's. Starcraft was fun, but it got old real fast.
