haha; i'm pretty sure my step dad ruined halo for me.
he made me learn how to play it [this was before i started playing fps] so that i could teach him how the controls worked and the like [it was the first video game he'd played.] buuut, then he got mad if we played against each other and he didn't always win.
apparently he thought being raised on rpgs would make me incompetent with other genres.
