Everything Geeky: Speaking The Gamer Language

October 7th, 2009 1:42pm EDT Post a comment

Halo 3

I've heard often from people outside of geekdom that when we geeks get together we seem like we're speaking a different language. This is especially true amongst video gamers, because over the years we've found ways to shorten definitions of our games so communication is quick and direct.

Excellent categorization,Chelsea! My least faves,incidentally,have always been RTT/RTS games;I just can't summon enough patience and endurance to bother with 'em!

Although it is relatively straightforward, there should've been a section on fighters. However, the rest of it was well written.

Although relatively straightforward, there should've been a section on fighters. Regardless, this article was well-written(and a Mortal Kombat reference to boot).

@apostate - I'll be honest, I suck at RTS games too. I did love all the Age of Empires games, but it requires a patience I just don't have!
@anonymous 1 + 2 - You're right, I did think fighters was just straight forward enough, but I should've added them in there!
@anonymous 4 - They honestly haven't given enough information so far to know really what the big differences will be. It's a first person shooter like Halo and set in the same world, so it's probably just a continuation of the series.
