There is no "Halo" person or "Killzone" in my gaming life.

I am a 1337 retro gamer, and I have probably been playing games constantly since before you even existed. Back then, gaming was still seen as a nerd thing. Now that gaming has gone mainstream, we get all these n00bs who couldn't tell a good game from a bad game to save their grannies. Lemmie guess, the first console you ever played was the original Playsation...

Just because there is Halo on Xbox does not mean you must own a totally unrelated game on another console. Mainstream has forced you to see Killzone and Halo as the FPS games of choice for 2 rivalling consoles. "Mainstream" as you know it is simply a POS in the face of "true" gaming. Do not fall for marketing... play games because of their quality, not because some media propaganda waves them in your uninformed face...

Facts: Halo is good, but nothing groundbreaking. Killzone is a barely average game that is not worth owning. There are much more, better games out there. The best FPS on the PS2 IS Timesplitters 3. Other excellent games that n00bs such as yourself are completely oblivios to are ICO and Eternal Darkness (just selected completely randomly off the top of my head). Do you own these games? Have you even HEARD of them? Trust me, if you have played such quality games then you would be a much more avid gamer than you currently are, what with being satisfied with bloody KILLZONE.

Personally, I do not play Halo at all. I play UT2004, HL2 and Doom 3 sometimes. Also Metroid Prime 2 Echoes, if you count that as a FPS.

End of rant. Do you regret publicly shaming yourself with your opinion now?

Heheh. I warned you not to mess with me... got anything to say in your defence?
