This is one of the reasons why FPSs nowadays are so fucking dry and unimaginative.
This is why TF2 will be so much more than these FPS's. It has memorable characters and the environment cannot be mistaken with any other games. The gameplay is great too. I don't understand how people in my school brush it off saying it looks gay and too cartoony. It's better than Call of Duty by a long shot. These guys are dense motherfuckers.
Also, forgot to mention the 3DS. Love it. I came dicks that came when I saw that Paper Mario for the 3DS was going back to it's Turn Based roots other than the shitty platforming gameplay.
Ugggh.
The graphics in TF2 are much simpler, sure, but they've got gallons more charm than most shooter games, because they've got style.
If any of you haven't seen Gameswipe, you should. The bit from Rab and Rob is spot on: games aren't really memorable any more, there aren't many games that really leave a mark. It's all Hyper Realistic Brown Land, which can be okay, but it's not going to leave cherished memories like the stuff we grew up with
(I hate to be one of those BACK IN MY DAY people, but ugh. Blue skies, etc)
