Engineering is my least favorite. It's definitely one of the hardest levels in the game, given where your abilities are at and what you can do. The respawning enemies and very limited resources makes it a steep learning curve, especially so early in the game. These days I can usually breeze through it even on Impossible, but the first time I got the game back in 1999 this was the level that made me stop playing and try something else. I didn't get back to the game until early 2001 because of it.
Funnily enough, that was my reaction too the first time I played. However, now that I actually know how to play the game, that level is actually one of my favorites (the kick-ass coolant tubes music certainly helps ;)).

Not that anyone cares what I think, especially ZB... ;)
But I liked the vertical variations in Engineering's level design.
Each part of the whole did have distinctive charm, though.
Now... if we could manage to bottle ZB's caustic enthusiasm,
we could clean just about anything.

Because these sort of "post an ordered list!" threads are only slightly less tedious than reading sheets of actuarial details. Who in their right mind would actually read every single slightly-different list in threads like this? Nobody, that's who. As far as internet stupidity goes, these things rank right up there with "Post you system specs! OLOL" threads. It's pure ego spam. Thus, they deserve nothing more or less than mockery and derision.
That post was pure ego spam, and your angsty attempts to be the cool kid in this thread put you somewhere between cynical hippies and the poor dude from The Breakfast Club. Mock and deride, etc.

Christ, do we really need more flaming a month after the fact?
