Hey, that's not fair. I was just making a joke.Codgo said:
And it doesn't really make sense in the context that you used it.
Funny though . . .
Maybe. If I had a "Make Valve fanboy sound like a broken record." achievement unlocked icon it'd be equally appropriate.Codgo said:
Now get your last word in and lets be done with this.
I've only played COD 4 and Halo 3, and I prefer Halo 3. Simply because all the wacky games and unrealistic physics give it a very casual feel. You can just boot up the Xbox and mess around.
Whereas with COD 4, you kinda feel like you're in it to win it, and I'm not much of a competitive guy. Plus there's martyrdom. (sp?)
EDIT: I remember having fun with Gears of War, but I suck at it so I don't go online much

I am VERY surprised that you didn't mention F.E.A.R Combat, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, Team Fortress 2, or Unreal Tournament 3, ALL of which I would rank higher than any of the above options. Yes even CoD4. God I hate that game. Almost as much as I hate Halo...
The OFPS I had the most fun with were Duke Nukem 3D and Call of Duty 1. I still do, sometimes.
I do have BF2, but I don't like the communities around OFPSses. I don't like being bossed around by angry French pre-teens. People who write words with numb3rs. People who whine if you pull off a handsome shot. People breathing down microphones. People pressing the confirmation button endlessly so the only thing coming out of the speakers is "Yes sir!" a thousand times. Being kicked if you don't respond on certain comments. Being kicked if you respond to certain comments somewhat less then politely. I almost always quit a game, grumbling "kids...". Maybe I have a bad track record picking servers.
I'm tempted to try TF2, but as that seems to focus on teamplay very much I doubt I'll like it. I also hope Battlefield Heroes turns out great, but reading the comments people make on the BF:Heroes site, that community will consist entirely out of angry pre-teens, but from around the globe.

Actually I'm sick of arguing with him and didn't feel like explaining the many ways that he's wrong (not about a game but about me).derpa said:
Like, for example, how I never said that Halo was perfect, only that some of TF2's flaws are not in Halo.
But, I believe thanks are in order, for you. I'll avoid posts like that in the future.
COD4, its the online shooter I'm best at (just ahead of halo 3) and I cannot pick fault with any aspects of the game really, except for the sometimes influential host advantage that one person always gets online.
