Long as I've been playing FPS games – technically Faceball 3000, but let's say DOOM – I've had an unhealthy fascination with the shotgun-like weapons.
I completely wrecked shop in Duke Nukem 3D netplay. In Action Quake 2 I was known as the Handcannon Whore. I won every mode at every skill level of Unreal Tournament with its sublime Flak Cannon. I helplessly giggle at any emphasis of the word "shotgun" in a videogame context.
Psychoanalyse me?

Oddly, the one FPS I've played that doesn't follow this rule is the one that I have the greatest love-hate relationship with, TRON 2.0. The "Suffusion" subroutine is unnecessarily noisy, awkward to use, resource-heavy, and graceless.
Come to think of it, a lot of the gameplay was too, but the story setup was so good and the music was great and everything was so pretty and glowy.... *weeps comically*
Ah well. At least there's the movie—
Shit.

@Fuego Yeah, I enjoyed every moment involving Kevin Flynn, the Digital Dude. But the rest of the film felt so underachieving....

T1: Protag is immature alpha geek male.

But they both have great music!
