Single player......first person shooter

[76561198806111939]

Please help with some advice about games. I have not purchased a game in several years and now I's like to return to playing single player, first person shooters. In the past, some of the games that I enjoyed were:

Half Life 2
Halo
Bulletstorm
Bioshock
Chrysis
Far Cry

Now when I attempt to install and replay these games, some do not even install onto my Windows 10 64-bit system and they are not playable.

So........I'd like to get some new fps single-player games, and I'd appreciate all recommendations for games. Thanks for your consideration.

The Metro series are very good, but can be a bit much if you're not a fan of more horrorish games.

System Shock 2 is utterly fantastic but dated (it's as old as Half-LIfe 1).

Borderlands 2 is great, even single player without others in the game.

Wait... Explain... They all work just fine on Win 10 64-bit.

Hi OP, since you haven't played any games in several years, have you updated your PC hardware? If not, what are the specs for your PC, as I recently installed Win 10 on a friends older laptop which would be considered a "lite" gaming laptop for older "lighter" games.

In my opinion, Win 10 can relatively install on most PC's from the past decade however PC gaming is another thing.

Here is a website link that can offer some info about your system and games

And, I think if you're looking for more info about building an moderate gaming PC, I would suggest visiting Steams hardware software forum

THAT is the reason barely anything works. That GPU is ANCIENT.
Its from 2008, over 10 years old.
Put a modern card into that system like a GTX 1060.
There are many great FPS i could recommend but none that would work on that card.
You have a decent CPU, you have a good amount of RAM, just your GPU is terrible outdated.

Well ,after you get a new card i can recommend:

Far Cry 3
Far Cry 4
Far Cry 5
Shadow Warrior
Shadow Warrior 2
DOOM (2016)
Metro 2033 Redux
Metro Last Light Redux
Wolfenstein: The New Order
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
RAGE
Hard Reset Redux
Singularity

To name a few. all fun single player shooters. I am not the biggest fan of the genre and when i play them i prefer single player titles but i had fun with those.

fallout 3
fallout NV ( iv just heard good things )
Fallout 4 ( only with mods in my opinion )
Metro series
garrys mod ( you can shape it into any thing not good if your looking for an objective or story but you can make your own in your head if ya want )

If you liked Far Cry Primal then Dead Island is similar.
The Call of Duty series is fun (Modern Warfare is my favourite)
If you liked Halo then Destiny makes sense

I was just about to ask the same question. I'm a psychofan of the first UNREAL game from 1998, and ever since I started playing it almost 20 years ago, I've been looking for something similar. Sad fact is, to my knowledge, there isn't anything similar to Unreal. From my experience though, you might like:
Deus Ex - Human Revolution (a FPS/RPG fusion, superb game, like a mixture of Half-Life and Fallout)
System Shock series, but it was already mentioned
Painkiller (the first one)
And still, I would be grateful if anyone could suggest antything like the first Unreal game, or any FPS game with atmosphere, great music and long single player campaign.

I can recommend Turok 1 & 2. Nightdive did an awesome job with Turok 2. As for Turok 1, I recommend going into the Steam Workshop and downloading Turok+ which will improve the game greatly.
