    It used to exist, but not so much anymore. I miss heavily community based FPS multiplayer games. With custom servers and so on. I played Counter-Strike: Source last night, what a breath of fresh air!

    Same, I played some Day Of Defeat: Source also a while back. I got onto a server, people were talking about random things and seemed to know each other, there was a sense of community, it felt like a local bar.

    It's 3am and I'm chilling and talking with strangers while surfing on CS:S. God, I miss this.

    I miss that in newer games. It's all matchmaking, all competitive and in many ways, modern games like this feels "no fun allowed".

      I really miss these days where games were more than just the game itself.

      I also feel that newer games only focus on the competitive aspect.
