So I was thinking it would be nice if quite a few of us could could start playing an online FPS together again. I'm not interested in doing PS again, and I know a lot of other people aren't interested as well. So I was thinking something like CoD: World at War as a possibility. Goffin has a vent server we could use and it would be really fun to play with the midgets again.
Anyone like this idea? Have recommendations for a different game? Lets get a discussion going.

I don't own any COD games. One thing that makes other fps's difficult is that is isn't always easy for everyone to get in the same game on the same side. Something cheap and easy would be a good idea, like TF2 even, many have it plus it is like $20.

TF2 is what Goff suggested as well. I will totally buy it if enough people will commit to it.
This seems like the best deal: http://store.steampowered.com/sub/469/ - http://store.steampowered.com/sub/469/

I don't have any certain schedule. I would think most poeple would be like me and get on whenever they don't have something to do.
I was on last night learning the maps and classes.

Xen,
I think you have vent issues lol. I was screaming into vent last night "xen!?! xen!?! XENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN?!?!?! " and got nothing. I heard you ask me if I heard you once to witch I said yes and never heard you again. I was trying to get you to fire stuff last night screaming on vent lol it was freaking classic.

HaHa, yeah i just installed vent a few days ago since I installed RC1. I saw you light up so i figured I need to fix it but I was more worried about TF2 at the time.
I'll fix it tonight, I will probably still ignore you though.

I haven't picked it up yet cause I am in that non-playing game mood.

The mood was actually caused by me finding the Xbox 360 Game Creaters Club. I been messing around with XNA and Torque X because of stumbling acrossed the club.

I was in that mood Mid. So I picked up a game that I can start and stop easily and will entertain me for a little while. TF2 is just that game right now.

Posted By: Midnyght
Date Posted: 23/June/2009 at 2:16pm
well I will see if I will pick it up.
I am content right now learning some C# and building my first game in the little free time I got and saving for a good crossbow before September since they finally made it legal to hunt with crossbows in PA.

May as well. I think your comments in general game conversations are worth $20.
Whats you xbox tag btw? What do you think of the upcoming racing games? I know you have an opinion on them.

i have a friend request pending with you for 6 month now. :p my tag is fideelio.
forza 3 and need for speed shift both look good, but the one i'm really looking forward to is dirt 2.
also fuel looks like a good time as well, which is out now.
if you wanna throw $20 at something maybe you wanna pick up burnout paradise for the 360. it's a platinum hit now and i just grabbed it. haven't played it yet but verdant has max achievement points on it so at least one person liked it.

I have it. It may just be me or my TV but its hard for me to see upcoming turns in that game even glancing at the mini map.
I bought it for the ps3. My xbox RROD'd. I fixed it by taking it apart and using arctic silver 5 on the cpu and gpu then overheating it. Kinna scared to buy games for it now, though it worked fine for my wife with Guitar Hero.

you know for rrod it's a 3 year warranty so you should still be covered? i'm also guessin we can't multiplayer cross platform. :(
i haven't played it yet so dunno if i'll have the same problem with the turns, but when i do, i'll let ya know.

Definitely, I have played solo to the last boss but never beat him. PM me your cell, lost my numbers a while back, same for any of the rest of you. I finally accepted you last night fid, I have never really used the xbox menus for more than streaming video.

you can laugh at me trying to play a shooter on a console anytime you wish. just give me a time and i'll be there.
i'm sure if we can get in game the first time we'll figure something out more reliable than txting on a msg board.

I really doubt you are any worse than me at console shooters. We may not make it past the opening level.

It took about a week to get adjusted to console controllers again playing halo 3 but now I am ripping them up! Only problem is its still nowhere near as accurate or as fast as if I was aiming with a keyboard (Nostromo) and mouse. Still a ton of fun to play. I saved a really good video of me getting my first open season achievement the other day you guys should check it out! I can send it via 360 dashboard once your friended.

I haven't seen fid online in quit sometime (xbox 360 online) xen, I saw you on the other night and lol'd. I'm with you both in the sense of aiming on a console. I'm horrible at it myself and crack up sometimes trying to shoot at somebody have completely miss the whole clip. Keyboard/mouse > console controller.

Its a secondary account made for my roomates GF but she never plays anymore. The xbox 360 belongs to my roommate as well. As for playing videos I don't think you need the game. It's saved and used through xbox fileshare. I can try to send it to you sometime. We will see ![](smileys/smiley2.gif)

i bought an xbox 7 months ago and am now on my 5th console. i know reliability issues, but i also know it smokes the wii for single player and kills the ps3 for multiplayer and game library.
besides, if it were always there when you wanted it, it'd be as exciting as your ceiling.

Halo 3 still has the Best Co-op out of any game so far i think..
gears 2 comes close, but its only limited to 2 players are there are too many gay undertones for me (not to mention the one night stand and Friends with benefits acheivments)
quick story, heh
I had a chick over a couple weeks ago, she wanted to try gears but had never played before.. so i took her through the totturial erea.. little did i know it was the last place i needed to get the "friends with Benefits" achievement, and since she was on my Family account that had never played gears, she got "one night stand".
she doesnt have an xbox, so she doesnt know what achievements are, so she got up and almost walked out of the room. i had to stop her and tell her what was going on :P

I liked the gears 1 co-op, Halo co-op is turning out to be fun as well. I think I prefer gears just because I can pick up fid when he dies. I find myself turning around a lot.
