So lets see... I hate him.... he is overrated... and I think its retarded to pay way more for a product with his name on it.

And looking for the right game, TF2, CoD4, UT3, Etc...


There are a ton of games out, pick one. IMO, he sucks.

Ahh poor baby, he won't work unless he absolutely loves his job (in this case the particular game he plays). As if playing vidyagames for insane amounts of money wasn't enough.

I have to agree, I mean even just two years ago, there would be a game that came out every other month that I would want, not there is absolutely squat until winter that I am interested in, the last game that really pulled me in was bioshock.

The next might be DNF or fallout 3.

i think i am the only one on OCN who has respect for him, he started out in Quake3. Played that then counterstrike and many other FPS, and he has conquered and become a legend at those. He also got a contract with many hardware companies to put his name on their product.

he is making alot of money doing nothing this guy might be just someone looking to make money to OCN. but to those who actually have played in CAL and tried to be better and get good this guy is just that.

And yes no new FPS are attractive to people who play competitively that is why alot of us are still playing CS 1.6

The way I see it, it's because the newer games involve more realism so you can't just point and click, making the game more challenging.
