Do you prefer new, expensive and beautiful shooters - or old, cheap but not-so-good-looking shooters, which still is good?
I'll stick to new good looking shooters. I don't care the price, it's the experience that does it. 4 (44.4%)
1 (11.1%)
I like old shooters best. Nothing beats good old "buddies". 0 (0%)
2 (22.2%)
I'll buy and play anything I like. 2 (22.2%)

Hi, I just bought Day of Defeat and Team Fortress Classic (old games) because I think they looks great :) I'm downloading right now, so I can't say anything, but I have watched a few reviews of Team Fortress Classic, and it looks really fun, even if it's 9 years old.

You are probably thinking "9 years old? Horrible graphics.." and I do only have one answer to that.. Yes, it's not like the new shooters like Team Fortress 2 or Crysis, but it's the Classic play that does it.

The price is 5$ a piece, which isn't really much for 2 good games. I have both Day of Defeat: Source and Team Fortress 2, but the collection aren't complete without the "ancestors" :)


Edit: It's a mistake that there is blank lines in the poll, please ignore them, and DON'T waste your vote on one of them.

Team Fortess Classic has turned into nothing but pro frag naders and "conc jumpers." Conc jumping ruined the game, in my opinion. Team Fortress 2 is a WAY better game.

If you like Team Fortress Classic, why not download Fortress Forever? It's TFC gameplay with updated graphics (though not as good as TF2 graphics), and it's free!

The original Day of Defeat is pretty fun. I think it's probably worth $5 (although I'll personally stick to CoD4 for that general type of gameplay).

Team Fortress classic is one of the best games ever! Yet I still believe that games are getting better and better with a few stray "terrible" ones

That's great to hear! It's true that games are getting better, because lots of companies learns of others mistakes. Erhm.. Crysis.. What? Did I say "Crysis"? Ohh yeah I did.. Well, the graphics are cool and most of the storyline is great, but the endgame is no where near the level of what the rest of the game is.

Before I continue...

*SPOILER*

Crysis ends with a simple boss fight, against the alien enemies.. First a huge thing from their army, and after that their whole ship, which you can take down by firing a few TAC gun rockets..

But I really like Team Fortress Classic, I played Soldier earlier today, and I had a 51-7 score :D



And I can't believe someone wasted their vote on the blank fields..

I voted for the second blank line just to piss you off

And I think I like the new shooters better, because of the physics engines, and I like the feel of the weapons better in games like Call of duty 2 and 4 instead of games like medal of honour or call of duty 1.
Though wolfenstein enemy territory is still lots of fun 8)

Looks like the Elate Entry test isn't good enough for "weeding out the idiots".

You're not an idiot, just a little crazy. For you, I prefer "Maniac".

He's a maniac, maniac that's for sure,
He will kill your cat and nail him to the door.
