10 Exceptional First-Person Shooter Games That Defined The Last 10 Years

9. Portal 2

Portal 2 is an incredibly funny, challenging and surprisingly clever game. As an experience, the whole ordeal is simply intoxicating. It has a way of making you feel smarter than you really are, which - of course - makes it all the more addicting. The voiceover work is also great, but that's not the only reason we love it. Portal 2 is different, as it challenges both your mind and patience. The campaign is long and well-thought out; the AI is funny and presented with creativity; the new weapons you come across are fun to use and keep you guessing. Another welcomed addition to the franchise was the cooperative campaign. It's a well-fleshed out adventure that'll leave you satisfied beyond the borders of the campaign. It also makes for interesting scenarios that force you to play as a team. Having the option to dance around like an idiot or shoot a portal at your buddies feet doesn't hurt either. I get it: Portal 2 isn't for everyone, but if you're up for a challenge, it's definitely one game you you should try. If nothing else, it'll make you feel like some kind of brilliant physics-based genius.
