My skill level for modern shooters is really bad. Could never get the hang of it. It actually deters me from playing modern FPS. They’re just too fast for me. I do enjoy the hell out of the OG Doom, though. That shit’s my jam.

Doom was totally not great. In other news, I fucking love your writing, which IS great!

Finish your TITS

Yeah, but it looks like some shitty fighting game. I was hoping it would be more like the shmup versions.

It's already out for PS1.

What a fucking cry baby.

I think the fanboy in you is making it sound like a troll post. For someone who has never played Half Life, it came off pretty normal sounding to me.

Right.

He's a guest editor. I'm not sure why this is such a mystery to so many people...

Lighten the fuck up. Yes. That’s what comes to mind, for you.

Why is writing an opinion piece masturbating an ego?

I’m pretty sure that writing opinion pieces is ok. There's nothing interesting in gaming news right now, anyway. It's all Zelda, FFXV or Pokemon Go. You want another one of those articles?

Why does an average FPS have household name status? People who haven't even played it (like me) can name it so it can't be that average, now, can it?

Tribes barely had a user base compared to Halo. Definitely not a household name. I think you're trying to push your opinions as facts, now that I look at it...

Something be great can just reference its size; not how omg awesome it is. In this case, he mentioned the “footprint,” the game left. Which is undeniably fucking huge. Everyone knows Halo. It's a household name. I've never even played or seen Halo and I know about it. Hence his perspective on greatness. I think you…

It's written as an opinion piece, and you can't claim that another persons perspective on things is wrong. It is what it is. Leave judgement out of it.

I think it can be largely understood that this is written as an opinion piece, not a level of evidence to point out fact.
