Fair enough. But that's like saying Half-Life 2 was a Wolfenstein fangame and that Wolfenstein was a Midi Maze fan game. Nonsensical.

"You talking to me" - sorry, I posted in an old window before I read your post. Check the times

I finished playing "Enter The Matrix" today. That game was unfinished and slapdash in places, and I can honestly say I would rather have played another "Galaxy of Fantabulous Wonderment" or "Phleurgburg". Which one did gullible fan-boy me hand over shiny pennys for? Was it the original, well made and entertaining games, or the commercial game that was like a bad movie tribute "Max Payne" mod (With, not forgetting that ultimate indicator of gaming quality, fancy cutscenes)?
