    Yes and yes.

    Do you know who MLG are, Bolivar? They're professional gamers. They're also tits of the highest order, but they are extremely good at what they do. They never, ever do what you just described. They shoot, and believe you me, it is damn effective. As for grenades, they're a defensive weapon. You use them if being chased with low health to buy you time to flee. Using them as an offensive weapon is just going to get you shot.

    You've never talked to an 'MLG' person on the Bungie forums, have you?

    Generally, the BR is all they're good at because they refuse to use any other weapons because doing so is 'noobish'. Stupid bull if you ask me. That being said, they're ridiculously good with the BR.

    And yes, grenades are defensive but effective. Take Orbital or Narrows, for example. That place is a freaking grenadefest, and if you can dodge them all, then you sir are a better player than I.

    As for Halo 3 being called the best FPS of this generation, I'll have to reluctantly agree. I enjoy the CoD system of online ranking more, but like an abused lover, I keep coming back to Halo 3's matchmaking. I hate the people who play it, but that hate makes the kills feel that much more satisfying. As much as I'll make fun of it, I really do enjoy Halo. I couldn't give a about the story though, I just play it to pop a cap in those annoying twelve-year old skulls.

    As for the rest of the list, seeing Robotron 2084 on the list made me beam a little. Such a fun game. Same for Puzzle Bobble and Disgaea. <3

    But why, dear god, WHY is R-Type Final on that list when there are so many other shmups that outdo it in awesomeness? Has the guy who made this list even played games like DoDonPachi, Gunbird 2, Mushihime-sama, or even Mars Matrix or Giga Wing?

    The sheer number of Final Fantasy and Zelda games on the list shows a shocking lack of variety. Final Fantasy isn't the only good RPG (and frankly, I don't like any of the ones mentioned aside from FFVI) and Zelda isn't always that great either. Maybe I'm just jaded.
