Virtually everyone has made this comparison, but I think it embodies this game splendidly – Monday Night Combat is like a mix between Team Fortress 2 and Defense of the Ancients. A tower defense shooter game where two teams of 4-6 are pitted against each other to push their creep lanes (full of spawning robots) into the enemies base to destroy their moneyball.
Sure, there was online gaming back in the day but the modern age of online video gaming began almost twenty years ago with Xbox Live 1.0.
Haha. Yep. To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today.
That is arguable seeing as how good similar PC services are these days. The lack of cheaters on console is the closed ecosystem rather than extra effort by MS/Sony
"To be fair, I feel that it was actually worth it because it kept a good minimum standard. There was horrible lag back in the day and a lot of cheating/hacking. More so than today."
The horrible lag back then was due to peole not having the speeds needed to run games, peoples internet speeds were all over the place. Hacking is as bad today, if not worse than back then. People now have access to sophisticated hacking programmes that were nowhere near as prevalent as they are today. Anticheat software was also available way before Xbox Live and the paid online services became a thing.
I gamed online a lot from 1999 onwards and had great times playing without having issues with people cheating and no one had to pay for an online subscription.

If you’re an Xbox One owner, these titles are as good as any when it comes to pure, trigger-finger fun.
Rainbow Six, Halo 5, MCC, BF4, PVZGW1/2, Gears
I think thats all you need. Hardline is good too.
How did Monday Night Combat make this list? Where is PvZ?
Shoot Many Robots? WTF
No Titan Fall?
If he get to include backwards compatable games like Shadow Complex (accually really like that one) where is Borderlands 2!
Although the author isn't bombing on any game or claiming any are the best. Just sounds like a list of games he likes. So to that, enjoy playing what you like.
A lot of people say this game's like TF 2...........It's not. Lol.
Why is there an embedded Youtube video of a glitch? :|
