Official Online Gaming Engagements
 

So, sitting here, thinking I wanna play some Halo 2 with some drome-ites. But I kinda want a guarantee.

So I'm thinking we should try this, where someone throws down an invite to play something, other people agree, or throw down their invites. Etc, etc.

So, anyone up for Halo 2 tonight?

I don't have Halo 2, but I know this thread is gon' be poppin' when Halo 3 comes out, fa sho'! Fo' player co-op, boy-eeee!!

But nah, no Halo 2. Sorry, man.

It's a great idea for a thread. I should be up for some DS stuff whenever. Like Hunters or Mario Kart.

I'd be up for Halo 2, but I moved my HD set into my room, and there's no access to internet up here. Sucks.

Good thread.

My Pokemon Friend Code is 3479 9937 2839. I could use a Ditto for breeding purposes, anyone willing to trade? I don't have much to offer at the moment, though I have access to both versions in regards to exclusives. Once I'm able to breed I can hook ya'll up with either of the three starters as well as Totodile.

Can I get a sticky on this?

Cure and I just played some Halo2 for an hour. Was neat, especially since he hadnt played before.

sure thing

You so good to me, yo.

Does anyone wanna help me with Gears of War on insane? I was gonna start tomorrow in the afternoon. Anyone?

I'll play through it with you, I'm free tomorrow night (I think) but not Wednesday cause I've work, Thursday during the day should be good too. I nearly got through the whole thing on my own before but couldn't finish off Raam.

Cool. Thanks, man. But I am going from the beginning, so it'll be a while before we get to him.

That's no problem, Gears is one of those games that's always fun to play through. I don't have the Dom co-op achievements so can I play as him?:D

It's a date. ;)

Sorry Jed but I gotta cancel for tomorrow. I thought I was gonna be home all day tomorrow but as it turns out tomorrow's the day I gotta visit some relatives in Philly and yet no one wanted to tell me. :cry:

I guess we'll just have to go for it on Thursday. I PROMISE! :)

I gotta go to a friend's gig Thursday but Friday or Saturday should be alright (taking into account my girlfriend might have other plans for the weekend), I'll add you to messenger and we can figure out a day and time on there.

I'd love to play with you guys, especially since I've never had the chance to try Halo 2 online before.

Problem is the time difference though.

The 25th it comes. Halo 3. I'm putting this out early to get a day when we can ALL be on. We need to have a last hurrah on Halo 2. When would be best for everyone?! Times and dates people! LET'S ORGANIZE THIS!

Yeah, let's get this down. If you're on the Drome and own a copy of Halo 2, we've all got to get on for one last huge game before Halo 3 hits.

How typical my Xbox 360 blows up during the ONE GODDAMN MONTH I NEED THE FU*KING THING.

Canceling the Halo 3 preorder tomorrow. I won't even be able to send the machine out until after the 20th, and if its four to six weeks from then, there's no point in spending $70 on a game I can't play. I was only preordering it so I could be ahead of the curve and not get completely destroyed by the community right out of the gate, but since they're going to have eight weeks on me at least, there's no point. Hell, I'll be playing Super Mario Galaxy by then.

Just another $70 towards a PS3. We'll talk when Banjo comes out.

WTF are you going to buy a PS3 for? ROFL!

For Lair of course!

And the eventual better version of Bioshock.

ROFL! Ok, buddy. We all know the dual-shock is such a terrific controller for FPS's. And all of those 360 to PS3 ports have gone OH SO WELL. Also Microsoft pretty much bought BioShock for Windows and 360...that's why it's got the "Only For" tag on it. It isn't a timed exclusive anymore. You fail again.

You're not too talented at trolling, man.

Exclusives don't last anymore. Either way, I'm not going to be playing any more 360 games this year. I'm not spending $200 to get a refurbished time bomb when I could spend that money on things I actually want.

So would this weekend be good for everyone?

i'm down for playin halo 2 or gears of war anytime ya want, lol i'll be on this weekend (cept for when the huskers are playing wake forest....) but just add me on ur friends list Zee6 is my gamer tag easy enough...

I'd be down, but with an expired live until either next week or up until the 25th, it makes it difficult. So if anyone has an extra free 48 trial thing, and wants to hook me up?

Lets play this weeeeeek!

Yeah, yo. Everyone that doesn't play is a LOSER! A broken 360 is not an excuse!
OK it is, but you know what I mean.

I'll play as long as I'm not still feeling like ****.

Im down for Halo 2 as well.

Halo 2 sounds good to me. Just arrange a time and date, then invite me to the game. My gamer tag is Sam24007.:)

With college classes starting again, I won't have as much free time though.

I'll play too depending on if I'm home, if I haven't got plans or if I'm not up early for work.

My roomates are being d-bags and will be going straight into multiplayer. I wanna finish the fight before I do that.

Anyone wanna play some Halo 3 campaign tonight? I'm talking finish the whole thing, straight through. Anyone? It'll be faster and more fun the more people you have. That and if I play with random people I'm afraid they'll skip through cutscenes, like in Gears.

I would, but I'm playing through the entire thing by myself first. I don't want anything else involved in the experience.

Good call. Inconsiderate douche bags might show up online to spoil it for you.

Yeah that's a good point. It's just that it'll be faster doing it co-op and I wanna be done by 9 or 10am when my classes start. I dunno, maybe I shouldn't rush it.

Well that's not a possibility, because there is no drop-in drop-out in co-op. You get who you want to play with and you start the game, you can't just jump in and out at any point.

I just don't want to play it with anyone else the first time through. I want to be alone and play it the way I want play it, at my pace and doing what I feel like doing.

Yeah but people could make you skip through cutscenes right?

I'm not sure. I think it may only be the party leader that could skip cut-scenes. Either way, I'm not chancing it.
