Some people like chocolate ice cream, others prefer vanilla. I don't play games for the realistic experience, team play, or social interaction. Screw the team, if it moves, kill it. If it doesn't move, plug it just to be sure. I'm number one! I killed *everyone*. Me! Me! I!
I personally despise round based games, and refuse to play them. This doesn't make either of us right or wrong, it's just what we like. ----- Original Message ----- From: "K.
