An Origins Story:

Do you remember the year 2004? I sure do. The video game industry, in my honest opinion, was in its "Golden Age". I mean, seriously, look at that sexy year and all of the amazing games that came out then. There was Halo 2, Half-Life 2, GTA: San Andreas, Star Wars: BF, Star Wars: KotoR, Doom 3, Metal Gear 3, Pokemon Leaf Green & Fire Red, FarCry, Killzone, Red Dead Revolver, Counter-Stike: Source, and Tony Hawk's Underground 2. Ok yes, I may have thrown in that last one simply because it is a personal favorite, because honestly that game was a steaming pile crap that was just recently microwaved for "about 20 or 30 seconds". But seriously with a lineup like that it seemed as if video games were just going to keep getting better and better. That couldn't have been further from the truth.
