I'm gonna use one of my 48 hour cards. I'd love to do a Gears night, that's my fav. But Halo, Carcassone, Undertow, or essentially anything other than CoD4 I could be up for. Sunday could be a great day for it since there's nothing on TV and no football.

If I'm around I'll be game... just say when.

I'm stuck here all night waiting to do a remote upgrade for work tonight.

Hahaha.. I said that as if I actually go out normally. I crack myself up

I sold Gears, so I'm in for Halo or Undertow (haven't played it yet though). Going to see Ozzy Saturday, but Sunday would work.

Sunday....say 6pm good for everyone? That way we can get in some serious gaming time, a good 3 or 4 hours

What did you want to play? I'd be late either way but curious if what you want to do warrants ditching my other plans ;)

Gears or Halo for me. I'd love to do some Carcasonne as well and I'd be into some multiplayer Undertow but not all night

I've got gears, halo, COD4, and Undertow as well. I haven't played gears for a million billion years, so playing it elicits both feelings of excitement and fear to being so rusty (or never actually ever good at the game to begin with).

Bovine was the only one who came on last night....

Sorry, we HAD to have a Rambothon. I've never seen any of them and wanted to before going to see 4.

I played lots of Carcassone online then go to watching movies by the time Bovine messaged me.

It's so much more fun playin' against real people in that game. I had a blast

Sorry man, I ran into a bunch of distractions that didn't let me get on.

I can't. My 48-hours (why can't it just be like 24 hours of game time or something useful?) runs out tonight.....

Although I now have all but one achievement in Carcassone. The one where you beat someone by 50 points. That's a hard one to get if the other person is decent at farming unless you get lucky. I ALMOST had it yesterday but I kept fucking getting road pieces for about 4 turns in a row which allowed the other guy to catch up a bit

Anybody up for some Haloz/Rock Band tonight?

It might be possible to pull me away from Sins of a Solar Empire for some Halo... maybe

I might be, I'll let you know

Let me just point out... for all the RB hoopla that was going on here, the multiplayer seems to be non-existant. Cant we agree that the game works as an in house multi and thats about it? In fact, any game that touts 'You can play with friends from all over the planet!' isnt exactly a fantastic feature since it is virtually impossible to get 3 or 4 people around the globe online at the same time.

I've only played it online the first couple of days it came out here (around Christmas. At that point, I never had any problems finding a drummer and somebody else on guitar/bass. Can't speak to how hard it is to find randoms now. It's not even that appealing an idea to play with strangers anyway.

Well, I'll be on there.

Luckily, he has plenty of dead girlfriend.

I almost lost my shit when I saw Kupek post in this topic. Alas, it is a trivial post. Too bad dead girlfriends can't play Halo.

Alright, fine. I'll cave. I'll go get COD4. But you assholes better be ready to go.

seriously.....it wasn't a joke. dead girlfriend jokes are not funny.....ever. want to know why? I'm pretty sure it's probably in the archives. It involves snow, driving, and um. girlfriend dying. so yeah....want to make a joke fine.....but the dead girlfriend thing.......shut the fuck up

No offense Chris, because obviously that's something to avoid talking about... but you ARE the one with an avatar of a chopped up girl in a fridge which is how the topic came up. So if that's such a touchy subject maybe you should update your avatar.

That's like me putting up an avatar for MILF hunting or something then getting offended when anyone makes jokes about my promiscuous mother. Just saying.

What's your mother's number?

Wow, we've entered the realm of "Yo Momma" jokes.

BTW, ditto on Tessian's quote, Chris.
