If your video game of choice is 256 colour scrolling shooters from decades past, then no, I'm not surprised that you dislike games like RtCW:ET. Keep pressing the fire button, and don't forget to collect that powerup.

You don't collect power ups and keep pressing the fire button in games like RtCW:ET? Fundamentally it comes down to what game you define as recreation and if it relaxes you or not. I personally prefer SHMUPs for my action games. What? Did you expect these free games to have a story, NPCs, various dialogues, or to make you laugh and cry? The truth is that ET is just a pathetically lacking as Soldat or any of the games I linked. I just personally dislike it. In the manner of TFC and CS this just feels like a death match with window dressing. Now the various games on that web site may not be the graphical equivalent of ET ... should that even matter? If you are a gamer I mean. I'm no freaking SHMUP master but there just seems to be loads of room for improvement in the various games ... so I must be stupid.

No, if you dislike the game, then obviously that's it. Being free won't make it better. That was a clever trap you set for me.

However, you started out with a premise that Enemy Territory's price tag of FREE is no big deal, because not only are there countless games out there that are free, but you personally play nothing BUT free games that are better than RtCW:ET. I wanted to see what these fantastic games were. As a gamer to fellow gamer, I wanted you to let me in on your great video game stash. It turns out that you're playing shareware scrolling shooters. As suspected, you're an idiot. What's next, a link to Newgrounds.com?
Well, did we uhm ... just forget HOTU? Are free games that fucking rare? If you really wanted to try UT2K4 (Or whatever they are naming the next) what stops you from just downloading it? Your personal belief system? Free games aren't a big deal. Good games are a big deal.
