Let me ask a question: What is it with these fighting games, such as Street Fighter, that you guys find so appealing?

Is it nostalgia? Is it some affinity for the Japanimation? What is it about these games that makes them your favorites?

The same with the first-person shooter games. Why? What is it about them that gets you off so much? I've tried Halo, and found it to be relatively boring. Same with Half-Life. You just...shoot people/things. Boring. That's just me, though.

Just curious, as I can't quite fathom what it is you guys see in these games. I'm hoping to be enlightened here....
