Amazing!", then it went to Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight and it was all the previous amazement I had ever experienced, + lightsabers. Nothing has ever topped that so far

And this goes back to the extreme hype around Halo when it first came out. The only reason people thought it was so amazing was because they never got to experience FPS games on a PC. The first one that was actually decent on the console blew their mind, but compared to the PC kings Half-Life and Quake it didn't offer anything special at all. Like when a new iPhone gets released and all the Apple fans start gushing about all the awesome new features, most of which Android has had for years
