I prefer not to shoot anything. It troubles me that at least 50% of today's games basically consist of "kill 'em all".
Recently, Microsoft claimed to have the "greatest holiday lineup in video game history":
Bioshock (shoot), Orange Box (shoot), Halo3 (shoot) and Call of Duty 4 (shoot). Hooray for variety.

Link's Crossbow Training is as far as I will go.

sucks to be you then.

 Nah. Luckily, there's a small company called odnetniN that successfully refuses to churn out FPS by the dozen.

 

perhaps if you'd chose not to dismiss these games based solely on the genre they reside in, you'd realise that you were missing out on some of the best gaming experiences of recent years. such a pity.

No, you're getting me wrong (btw, I gave Bioshock a try. Wonderful artwork, atmosphere, story... could have been a fantastic adventure or action adventure game, but they chose to make it a brainless shooter. THAT's a pity).

Violence disgusts me. I can't stand brutality. I couldn't play COD4 if you gave it to me for free. To me war != entertainment.
