I was thinking PC/console shit, but we can add rail shooters too. Having a thread to discuss House of the Dead would be pretty dope.

Basically. OP wanted to create a thread discussing games like 90s shooters, but released in the next decade.

yes actually, they seethingly hate Half-Life and Counter-Strike there as well.
they also hate Halo though, so you might have tough time

They're called party shooters dude.

They hate games that meet their own definitions that they don't like and get faggy about games that are in a similar style, but released slightly later.

He's obviously ESL and you're the even bigger retard for getting all flubberbusted by some 3rd world ESL idiot who wants to contribute to the board while you mope around shitposting on threads you don't like, like some sort of social media fag. Go back to whatever normalfag place you came from then neck yourself.
>>6894763
Anyway OP, there's a FPS/Doom thread and people there will talk about most FPS if you bring them up. Especially Quake/UT derivatives.

He made this thread specifically because he tried talking about 00s shooters in the other thread, despite it being changed from "retro shooters" to "90s shooters" the day after the rules were changed, because god forbid that there are people who don't think Crysis is oldschool

You had the bright idea of telling him to go to a thread he just tried doing this in, and telling him that the posters there would talk about these games despite the opposite happening, I'm just pointing out that you're wrong

And in the end Serious Sam turned into a thriving franchise with several fun games.

While Duke's one-hit wonder already faded into obscurity and will never shine again thanks to mega-faggots Pitchford and JSJ.

Hilarious, isn't it?

Learn how to prioritize enemies, how many shots they take from which weapon.
Also, pick up every +1 health and armor shard you can find, especially the single ones hidden in corners.

I mean, there was some other questionable shit, but this is plain inaccurate. Quake 4 SP was more in line with CoD, while Doom 3 was more or less Quake 2+ by how it played.
Both were great arena shooters MP wise though.

Lol this. At this point it doesn't matter whether Sam started as a Duke knockoff or not. The series went on to BTFO Duke and become a better version of its progenitor. I'm looking forward to playing SS4 this fall while most people under the age of 30 only know Duke for the debacle that was DNF.
