Subject: Why are video games so bad nowadays?

Seriously, every game, 2000 on are terrible.

Halo CE may be called, revolutionary, but in reality, it was a blatant rip-off of Half-Life. Half Life 2 was in fact, terrible. Seriously, how did Gordon get to city 17? 2006 and on, things got worse. Video Games nowadays are almost always known for being unoriginal FPS. There is no originality in games anymore. They are now known for Angry Russians, Space Aliens, and Bald guys with shotguns.

Also, don't get me started with the new Fallout games. They. Are. Terrible.

Seriously Flood, give me one good game from 2000-2012.

Because people only buy them for the multiplayer, not the art or story.

There's absolutely no story to that game! Oh look, two brothers want land. They buy mercs to fight for land! SOOOO ORRIGINNALLL!!!

Because developers, or whoever, can sell you half a game for $60, and the rest as DLC cuz they know you'll buy it.

The Timesplitters and Battlefront series came out after 2000, so I disagree OP.

1) TF2 is a multiplayer game....so it doesn't need a story line.
2) TF2 DOES in fact have a story line.
3) I know it's an original plot....cause what other games have a plot like that?

I truly believe games have been getting progressively worse, that CE and FO3 are bad, and that most videogames have generic plots nowadays, but to say that all are terrible is wrong.

There are plenty of good series out there (STALKER, Witcher, Souls, etc). Do you only play on consoles, or what?

I hate MLP. It is cancerous and pretty stupid to see men watching a show for girls. They can deny the truth but the truth shall prevail!

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

The Walking Dead Game says hi.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

Hello.


Posted by: mav1972kit
how did Gordon get to city 17?


Sucks that you don't know anything about Half-Life canon.

After the Resonance Cascade, portal storms were abundant through Earth for a while, and Vortigaunts started to flee there; evading the Combine. Seeing the rifts open on Xen, the border world, the Combine quickly took advantage of the opportunity to enslave two races that are stuck in a corner, much like a child. After several years, they had established most Cities across Earth, City 17 being the main one. People who had great knowledge pre-war were often transferred there to be taken to Nova Prospekt, where knowledge would be extracted from them after years of jailing.

He got to City 17 because citizens are often randomly transferred between cities.


OT: Morrowind, Halo 3, Halo CE, Half-Life 2, Half-Life 2 Episodes, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Fallout 3, Counter-Strike: Source, Dota 2, ARMA 2, Terraria, Rage, Garry's Mod, Hard Reset.

That's off of the top of my head

Probably to be fun, seeing how it's a game and all.

TF2 and Soul Calibur are pointless to play. Halo 3 and Halo 4 are both overrated, generic shooters. Chromehounds looks like a reskinned Mechwarrior.
