Now.... not so much. Dude, methinks you missed the irony. I read that as headshot on *you*, not the gametype. But then I've been wrong before... And to add my .02, I agree with Six that DM/TDM/CTF in their pristine form are still the best way to enjoy UT. IMHO, comparing the original gametypes to the heavily-modded gametypes is like comparing a six foot breaking putt at the Open championship to hitting the ball between windmill blades at your local putt-putt. *headshot* :)
