I didn't grow up playing a lot of shooters. I played at the homes of my friends who owned Xboxes, but I never owned one and I preferred Mario and Pokemon anyway. I inexplicably beat this game, although the campaign was bad. Online multiplayer was more fun, and to this day this is the only online shooter I have played consistently. Every time I died and the blood poured down the screen my mom said "That is so gross!" She was right, but it was also cool.
