    No One Lives Forever I and II.

    The two greatest games ever made. Yes, they are not recent, but they rely on style and gameplay. Perfect single player.

    I recommend them, because I myself am totally not into shooters. I find them tedious, and often of uninteresting subject matter.
    Except for these two. Humour, style, wit, 1960's atmosphere.

    I liked the original FEAR, and FEAR 2 got good reviews. And if you haven't played Half Life 2, I'd recommend that.

    Fantastic games.

    First is my favorite shooter ever, second didn't do it for me.

    and of course, you look like you need a monkey.

    If you want a genuinely hilarious game get NOLF, I still like the graphics they are sharp and clean. You WILL laugh out loud, and the gameplay is amazing. It has all the flair of a B-movie from the sixties, lovingly mocks it, and kicks butt as a game.
