Myst was never really an action game, it was one of those puzzle type deals... Graphics shmafics! What really makes a game good is it's playability. Some of the ol' classics were cheezy as hell, but if they were fun to play with friends and involved a bit of skill - how it looked didn't matter. Asteroids, Combat (anyone remember Tank Pong?), Mig Alley Ace, Space War, Civ, Scorched Earth, etc., they were good in their day and I'd play them over again if anyone had the ol' computers to run them. I guess people expect eye candy all the time now... I must be getting old (and I'm not even 30 yet.) Anyhow, when it comes to modern multiplayer first person shooters - nothing's cooler than Battlefield 1942 (when its played over a cable modem with a good connection on a 'puter that's up to par.) You actually need to work as a team with people, and there's no homing weapons - but some really nice powerful ranged artillery and aircraft that take a bit of skill to make useful. Now if only some people would scout better...
