Section 8 is clearly a game made by people who play a lot of online shooters. It's a game designed with its players first and foremost in the developers' thoughts - it's considerate to the needs of the many rather than the wishes of a few, and it shows when you play the game. This is an accessible first-person shooter, yet it's also splendidly flexible, offering plenty of character customisation without bogging down players with meaningless options.
