I'm sorry. I did not know that SC is the best game ever. On what metric, your personal opinion?

Seems pretty same to me. You fight some things, gather loot and gain experience. What is the big difference? D2 is faster? :D Haha.

What do you do in HL? Shoot things. Doom? Shoot things. But I know.. in doom you had armor and in HL you have shields. That is a BIG difference. What is so innovative about HL in your opinion?

 

Only good game valve has ever made is TF2. Counter-strike was good also, but that was a mod... and since 2003(?) Blizzard has done nothing but cash on pay to play games.

On the fact that SC is the only game that is considered a sport in a country in the world. Furthermore if you can't tell the difference then you indeed have never played either of those games. BTW, games since 2005 absolutely ALL look exactly the fucking same.

I won't even bother with HL cause you are obviously an alt troll. However if you are serious then I can totally see why games have started to suck balls since 2005, with people like you being their customers they can put out any shit, box it up, and sell it and it will make millions still.

My problems with that list:

10:  Mature Games:  Games were "Mature" way before Mortal Kombat and Doom.  Anybody that's played TechnoCop on the Genesis, Chiller in the Arcade, Custer's Revenge on the Atari, or ShadowGate on the Nes could tell you that.

9.  The Power Glove/Sega Activator/Power Pad did "Wii-Like" things decades before the Wii.  They were ahead of their time and not too successful, of course.  Still, would you call the '65 Chevy a milestone if it were a descendent of the Model T?

7.  Online gaming was all well and good but I'm pretty sure PC games had been doing this for  much longer.  I'd go out on a limb and say PC online gaming is still ahead of Xbox Live.  Services like the Sega Channel, Sharkwire, or whatever that device was that let you play Snes/Genesis games online layed more groundwork for online console gaming.  Just because MS did it right and (arguably) best doesn't mean that it's a milestone.  And like some have said, why is it seperated from online gaming?

4.  They made it seem like the N64 was doing well until optical media was released.  Optical Media had been in games years before the N64 and the Playstation.  CD-i, Sega CD, Turbo Duo, Neo Geo CD, Sega Saturn, even the Jaguar CD were on the market long before those two.  Nintendo was apparently the last to make the switch.  The PS1 wasn't the death knell for Cartridges.  It was just the first mega-popular console not to use the medium.  Like I said, it didn't outright say that the PS1 was the first.  It just gave the PS1 way too much credit for using something that everybody except Nintendo was using at the time.

3.  Mario 64 came out at roughly the exact same time as Crash Bandicoot and Tomb Raider.

--It's not a bad list.  It's just a little skewed.



Saving was a HUGE milestone, literally EVERY GAME nowadays uses saves, where is it?!

So if for example people in Uganda start to play some stupid game as "sport" then it will be the bestest game everrr? I see. I think you are just too blind to see that those games are exactly the same. ;)

I am very sorry if you think that modern games suck balls. Because that is what you are going to get. Have you noticed you are starting to sound like your parents? "The music nowadays is crap compared to the great *insert name here*".

But do bother with HL. Tell me what is so good about it? I think it has to be the most boring FPS which I have tried to play through.



Strange list.  Mature games?  Optical media?  Xbox Live and online gaming separate?  No saving?  Then there are the explanations, which some of them seem to be... a little off.

You have already proven that you don't know what you're talking about, so stop embarrasing yourself. If you're not a troll, I feel sorry for you

@ the part about modern games is all we're going to get. Yea, sure *goes back to playing NSMBWii and watching trailers for Sonic 4 and DKCR*



I LOVE ICELAND!
