In some respects, yes. The shooting mechanics and raids are amazing. The pvp is amazing fun too if you don't take it too seriously. But there are others that smash it story and exploration wise, while also having solid shooting: Unreal was just amazing (the first one, Tournament was and excellent pvp addition), Half-Life too of course. Then the first Halo for it's large vehicle fights and perfect combat system. Then of course Doom and Quake for the monster overkill madness (Quake 2 was stand out for me).

Thank god, someone else (near) my age. I wasted more of my life on Quake DM than any other game made. My favorite iteration was Quake 3, but I had rocket jumping down to a science in Quake/QW. UT2003 was fun as well.

I miss rocket jumping! Quake pvp was insane.
