The First Person Shooter – I’m Bored Now

A large gun, and an area full of people in front of me. In any other genre, there may be some hope of conversation, perhaps a spot of exploring, even. But no, this is a first-person-shooter and all must die.

It’s all getting very boring indeed.

I don't ever seem to get tired of third person action adventure games. FPS gets boring fast.

Hopefully Respawn Entertainment can spice this satired old worn out genre.

He compared it to COD about 6 times. That's why he's bored.

Can't stand articles like this
As CoD and Halo are the only FPSs out there or are the only ones that matter and ignoring every other game that encompasses the entire genre?

The series mentioned are not the genre, they are part of the genre but please, please stop equating FPS genre to only CoD, etc

What about Far Cry 3 (preordered today)? Open world, good story, tactical freedom?
What about Skyrim in first person? Portal and Bioshock? What about Metro 2033 and Fallout? Rainbow Six and Brothers in Arms? Operation Flashpoint?

It's just something the developers are doing now. If you go back and play any of the old fps games, they're so much funner for some reason.

It's not all bad though. Planetside 2 is one of the funnest games I've played in a while and Far Cry 3 is amazing.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
