No, I just find most FPS (and most console games in general, to
get THAT out of the way) mindless....
I like RPG and RTS games a lot, as well. For me, a FPS is about
shooting stuff up, heh. For story, I'll stick to Fallout, Final Fantasy
and Planescape: Torment...

Tribes is cool because you CAN jump into 15 minute games of
siege (my fave game type), take part in a coodernated assult on an
enemy base with ppl you never met before then leave.

Tribes is different...I mean, I liked Doom 1, but nothing after that in
FPS until Tribes.
