When the crap did we ever say we cooperate?

On a sidenote, I'll be away for about a month starting next week. I'll probably be back before Krook gets his box fixed.

Nice CoD4 session. Jags is pretty good. Hades didn't join.

Good times indeed. Too bad Hades wasn't around to play with us. Not for the lack of invites, though. Playing Halo with Mr Dev was pretty cool, though we were a bit all over the place in terms of what we were playing. After you losers backstabbed us, Nick and me went through another session of Metal Slug 3. That game will never get old. Bring on MS 1-6, SNK. We also saw Krookie log on, but we ignored him.

If you want something to use a flightstick for on the 360, get Ace Combat 6. It's an arcadey-ish flight action game, not a sim. But playing it with the flightstick is awesome. The multiplayer is loads of fun. Though, you'd have to get a 360 flightstick for it. The bundle runs at about 140-150 bucks. I easily found it worthwhile, though. The game plays so differently with it. In any case, try the demo.

Nickiepoo got his share of name-calling in Halo3.

I think I like Carcassonne so much because it's such a nice contrast to all the fps we end up playing online. Oh, and next time we play it, Llyranor, the kid gloves are off!! Bring it on. I'll keep mopping the floor with you for as long as you want. EDIT: Also, we should change our clan to MCA!

Hey, if you morons like fighting games, get Virtua Fighter 5, it's supposedly the best 3D fighter in years. I don't usually play the genre, but the game is pretty awesome. If you meant beat-em-ups, XBLA has at least a decent selection from old arcade/console titles. I agree with space games. There needs to be a space sim (that uses the Ace Combat 6 flightstick). Maybe if Lucasarts wasn't a steaming pile of Hades nowadays, we'd get something. Or a mech sim. Like Steel Battalion 2 ^___^ We need to play more NHL 2008 co-op. If you guys like board games, you should try Catan (XBLA). I have the real board version, and it's pretty nice (economy/trading-based). If it doesn't turn out to be the free game, it might be something worth getting, if we're all willing to invest in it. Also, try the Culdcept Saga (will be a budget-priced retail game - not XBLA). It's a mix of Monopoly and M:TG (or whatever other card game). It's awesome. You guys should also try Puzzle Quest (XBLA). It's a mix of Hexic with RPG elements, and it works masterfully. Arguably one of the best games last year. There's also 1v1 online. I don't have it since I already have the DS version, but Nick has it. The beauty of Live is that you can just simply try the demos of all these games.

Oooh, more stalkage afoot. Also, this applies for both Gold and Silver members.

Highly unlikely, even though that'd be nice. If it's anything like the last free game they handed out (a great overlooked game - Carcassonne), then it could be pretty nice. Something like Catan would be very cool.

Just finished Metal Slug 3 co-op. So. Awesome.

You'd probably see the difference, but I find DVD movies still look fine. I'm in no rush for HD-DVD or bluray or whatever. Nice session we had there. METAL SLUUGGGGGGGGGG 3

I'm glad you got Yaris, Hades.

Zoma is absolutely right, but that's just secondary to the game being mediocre on its own, even disregarding the setting.

Nick has this, ask him!

METAL SLUG 3 METAL SLUUUUUG 3 METAL SLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG 333333333333333

Krookie is pretty easy to mop the floor with once you realize he's just a camping sniper loser. I've knived him in the back at least a couple of times. In any case, yeah, CoD4 mp is pretty awesome. I wouldn't say it replaces Halo3, since they play pretty different. Then again, you losers haven't really been playing H3 much at all (aside from that one camping sniper loser with no life). My main gripe would be lack of splitscreen guesting. The campaign on Veteran is pretty cool. It's a tad frustrating at times, since the game can be pretty cheap (as opposed to being fair and challenging). Some parts of the design are just outright bad. The endless respawning enemies can be pretty annoying sometimes. For the most part, though, it's very nice. I'm nearly done. Kor doesn't actually do anything, but he's useful in that he follows you around and acts as an additional bullet bag for the rest of us. He even avenged me once! ..... He even killed me once.

Metal Slug 3 will be on XBLA next Wednesday with online co-op. 800 pts. SOLD!

Krookie, get in the game now, you tool.

I like Gears of War and all (fantastic co-op campaign), but you don't see me defending the story. Then again, the story doesn't need defending. If you're going to criticize bad storytelling, do it for games that have tons of mediocre writing and proclaim to have a good story, like Oblivion.

Well, we had a nice search & destroy CoD4 session with Monkey. Krookie mysteriously died on us. It almost seemed like one of us planned his untimely demise, and it sure wasn't me.

Kane and Lynch only has local co-op, and NO ONE will be playing the PvP online.

Your dog ate your face.

Or you need a wire.

Yeah, you're banned from our zombie sessions.
