have to put up with a lot of self entitlement where I work. Kids who figure they can come to work 15 minutes late every day.

My favourite is people who text message me 15 minutes before their shift starts, telling me they have a doctors appointment, and wont be in all day.

Never knew that doctors appointments take 8 hours, and are only scheduled 20 minutes in advance.


Then they bitch when their paycheck sucks.

Not wanting to get into a pissing match, but I find more educational value in strategy games than FPS stuff.
The biggest FPS game that really stood out to me, in the realism department was the Brothers in Arms games, as they actually had suppression fire, squad interactions and so on.

That's okay. I like the fast paced twitch shooters since it gets your adrenaline going and heart beating :)


In the end though, its all about what you enjoy. If you got something out of it, then its all good. If playing Call of Duty got you to go read about Stalingrad or Arras, then that's a win for everybody.

I own almost all the WW2 fps titles that came out for the PS2, and enjoyed all of them, mind you. Just different expectations I think, since I do a lot of wargames (computer and miniatures)

None of us have to justify our entertainment to anyone else :)

I actually researched the Reichstag on wikipedia because it's at the end of the game and i spent a lot of time trying to get through it. I think the programmers are amazing for the realism they put into it. The photos of the building in ruins is identical in the game!


That's a very nice touch :)
