My reaction to my Xbox Live Gold trial running out: Meh. (In other words, it's a rant)

Seriously, the only reason I'd have Xbox Live Gold is for playing online, and even then I don't do that often. Why would I do that when I can play a lot of those online multiplayer games for free on PC? Yeah, yeah, Halo Reach isn't for PC, but Halo 1's just as good and there's still people who play online. In fact, I think Halo 1's the best in the series. But anyway, I'm sticking with Silver until I find a game that's not already on PC, lots of my friends are playing, and isn't a First-person shooter. Third-person, maybe, but not a FPS.

I swear, if I find an Xbox/PS3 fanboy that isn't also a FPS fanboy, I'll *insert act of punishment or humiliation here, except that it won't hurt or humiliate me if I actually have to do it*. FPS's are soo overrated these days. I miss the golden days, probably before right after Halo 1 came out. Might've ended later, I dunno for sure. Those days, it didn't matter if your plot was just a wall of text at the end of the game, all you needed to know is that you shoot people and run around the map, and it was FUN. Doom, Duke Nukem 3D, They were FUN. Half-Life was also really good, but it's not the light, one-against-the-world feel as the former. It's still really good, though. Actually, I think the golden era of FPS's started to wane around the release of Half-Life. It didn't stop all together, but it definitely started around there.

Another thing: Call of Duty. I don't get what's so good about it. Sure, it may be fun to play, but why does everyone say it's the best game in the world? I like games where you're in the future, the past, or just in some fantasy/sci-fi world that could have never existed at the time it was made. I mean, video games were meant to be a way to escape reality, for pete's sake! When I play a video game, I want to be in a different world. I don't want realism. If I wanted realism I'd go outside or watch the news or something!

I'm bored of typing now, I'mma go rocket-slide around in my Augmented Reaction Suit and destroy Russian robots on this colony that may or may not be in space. And my name isn't Vincent, it's Sam Gideon.

Also, a reminder that this is a rant, so don't say anything about weak logic or hypocritical statements, I don't think when I write a rant, I just rant.
