For sure, it's like a less violent version of playing it at summer camp :P Read more

I looked at the picture and immediately could hear the music in my head for the level:

Why don't more developers start get this? Clear and simple maps are awesome! Read more

It's because Facing Worlds is the only truly symmetrical, yet simple map in the game. Even the 2K3/4 and UT3 "evolutions" failed in this respect by complicating the maps too much in order to allow campers instead of open conflict at the flag. Read more

It's so... strange to me that many people getting into FPS games now may never know the "intimacy" of LAN parties and simplistic maps like the article states. Back in college (although that really wasn't too long ago), getting our ACM chapter together for some Facing Worlds was one of the best memories of my long… Read more

I love me some facing world's. As much credit as UT gets for its contribution to the fps genre, its capture-the-flag maps are rarely ever mentioned. Great article! Read more

This article articulates really well the thrill I get from playing the occasional fighting game. I can't be bothered to memorize complex moves or master a single character. It's just something I do to kill a little time every once and a while... Read more

Eddy, the most hated character in the Tekken 3 roster for the reasons above. I use to take great pride taking Eddy mashers to school with Jin Kazhama before they gave him a lobotomy in Tekken 4. Tag Especially. I had a friend who would brag up and down about how no one could beat him at Eddy. Would always see him… Read more

I was the exact same with Hwoarang in the Tekken series. I wrecked everyone with that motherfucker. He made me actually take up TKD until I made it to my red belt.

That is such a ... when I speak to my cousins in Spanish, and they answer me in English (so it's obviously clear they've understood what I've said) I always ... feel conflicted about that. Read more

Good article, man. I liked the game a lot because of two main points: Read more
