Anything that requires team work will often generate the forming of clans. We are currently playing Battlefield 2 and it mods.

I love fps games and I have played many over the years. My point is more about the benefits of joining an organised group. Also age should not be considered to be a barrier to computer gaming.

A bunch of friends playing together can have fun with almost any game. To my way of thinking the game is less important than the people you play with. It's got to be good, but with the right people it doesn't necessarily have to be great, to have fun...

For example next weekend we are going to have a fun night. We have found this crazy mod for BF:2 called Battlepaint. It's crazy because it Care Bears v Telly Tubby's with paintball guns. Could we play this full time? no way. It's limited and our interest in playing it will soon wear out, but for one night it will be an absolute scream.
