Thankfully, for the most part I stayed out of competition, at least at the highest levels. The usual online gaming issues were prevelent- people using hacks to be able to see through walls and teams of ringers manipulating competition results. The map design, on top of being balanced really offered many avenues for firefights. I was all about the interaction online versus other people. I didn’t get much further than that in the single player campaign. The single player campaign opens up with landing on Omaha Beach. I remember acting just like a kid explaining the game to my friend Mike, reciting the box details like a neophyte- ” You can play with 1,000s of people around the world Mike! We get to recreate World War II’s greatest battles!” I was getting ready to play some Medal of Honor: Allied Assault. That changed with the purchase of my first PC. There were notable exceptions along the way, but overall sports reigned.
I had always gravitated to sports games first and other genres second. That is, until Jay Schroeder and Madden 90? came out.
I did not hear the end of that for quite some time. I didn’t say it as if it were three letters. I will always remember that because I famously said “OHHHH look you get 1000 points if you shoot to UFO.
I have been playing video games since my Father received a Atari 2600 as a gift.
