Do you prefer tactical or fragfest style FPSes?

Tactical is games like Counter-Strike, Rainbow Six, or Operation Flashpoint, where one bullet can kill you and respawn times are generally not instant. Fragfest is Quake, Unreal Tournament, HLDM and their kin, where you can take a rocket hit to the chest and keep ticking, and there are lasers and other such things. Basically, what degree of realism do you prefer? Also, as a side question, where do we put Halo in these classifications? Myself, I strongly prefer tactical FPSes. I find them to be a little more suspenseful, since if anyone gets the drop on you, you won't be shooting back, and situations like that.

How ya doing, buddy?

God, I know. I bought Lockdown and I was like "What is this?" Especially since in the commercials they emphasised the teamwork element, but that's nowhere to be found online. It's just a bunch of doofuses running around with MP7s and killing everything they see. No fun at all. That's the one unfortunate thing about tactical FPSes, hardly anyone actually does use their head, everyone just goes lone wolf and tries to kill as many enemies as possible. The only time you get to use tactics is when you're in a clan, and you have to be good at the lone-wolf style to do that anyhow. It's bogus.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
