Woah, a Facebook game! I don't think I've played one of these for a while. In fact, the last Facebook game I played was over a year ago, coincidentally another one linked to Ubisoft -- something about castles that my girlfrie...

FPS arena games like your Quakes or your Unreals are great and all, but I have a problem with them: they're in 3D! My mind can't wrap around the complexities or the third dimension! I'm such a feeble being, and for that, I ap...
