Clan night tonight. 9pm PT. Halo 3.

Exactly one week to Reach.  We have a full team signed up for a midnight campaign run: gtdroptop, OmniscientDeath, TimMAY 1023, Fishbone10.  If there are others who want to commit to a 7 hour campaign run at midnight, have pre-ordered their game at a retailer open at midnight, and are looking for friends, I'm happy to help coordinate.

Clan night tonight. 9pm PT. Halo 3.

JUST TWO MORE FRIGGIN' WEEKS LEFT!!!!!!!

Clan night tonight. 10pm PT. Halo 3.

I am out of town traveling, but can host clan night for those that want to log on later at 10pm. We had some good sack action last week, may be our choice of playlists until Reach Falls.

Have the clips of Reach gotten you excited?  Less than one month away!

Clan night tonight. 9pm PT. Halo 3.

Clan nights will more regularly start at 9pm now.  Hopefully this helps to consolidate attendance.

Clan night tonight. 8pm PT. Halo 3.

6 weeks to Reach.

Clan night tonight. 8:30pm PT. Halo 3.

Good attendance last week and fun times, thanks to all who showed up.  I'm traveling today and might not be able to get on until  8:30pm or so but plan to be on.

Clan night tonight. 8pm PT. Halo 3.

I'm going to need to see critical mass attendance for H3 if we are to stay on this game.  Even though it got the most votes, people aren't showing up in enough numbers or at the same time to make it worthwhile.  Many thanks to the Mean Monkeys for being the most consistent participants of clan night.

Clan night tonight. 8pm PT. Halo 3.

I call BR.

Clan night tonight. 8pm PT. Halo 3.

Pretty much everybody should be back in town at this point.  Back to our regularly scheduled Halo 3 programming.  Use your H3: ODST multiplayer disc for best effect.

Living Dead Double EXP Weekend

Zombie playlist this weekend.  Is a good chance to pick up the "Delicious Brains" and "Zombie Repeller" achievements, each worth 25G.

Clan night tonight. 8pm PT. Left 4 Dead 1.

While attendance is still low due to summertime silliness, I'm planning to host an L4D1 tonight.  Campaign is still good times, and Versus mode works better with 5 people on L4D1 than on L4D2.  For all you goons that voted for H3, I need you to actually show up on clan night to make it work.

Clan night tonight. 9pm PT. Left 4 Dead 1.

Please let me know if you'll be playing tonight.  We have a few regulars out and want to make sure we have critical mass.

Clan night tonight. 8pm PT. Halo 3.

Per popular vote, we'll be playing Halo 3 multiplayer moving forward.  Please use your Halo 3: ODST multiplayer disc or make sure you have purchased all the DLC maps if you don't have ODST.

The Next Five Months

While it was fun, the Halo Reach multiplayer beta is officially over.  The full game doesn't come out until "this fall" which is likely five or more months away.  I just posted a poll at the top of the page where you can voice your opinion about what we play next.  Here are the descriptions:

• Halo 3: This is an older game, but keeps people in the mindset.  Plus, it's free.
• L4D1: We could revisit this since people had so much fun with the original.  Or add the new DLC which links the two games in campaign, plus adds new maps and MP modes.  L4D1 is free since most people have it, the DLC is relatively cheap.
• L4D2: We could go back to this, but it had gotten somewhat stale.  There is DLC that links it back to the first plus new maps and modes.  The DLC is the same price for either game, but is different for each game.
• Rainbow Six Vegas 2: We skipped this because it's release date was too close to Halo 3, even though we really enjoyed the first one. It's really cheap now, and could be a nice distraction for the summer.  But the MP community is probably really small now.
• Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2: Still one of the most played games on XBL and some of the clan already has it.  Still pretty pricey, and would be a really crappy learning curve at this point since most of the community is much better at this point.
• Battlefield Bad Company 2: One of the newer games out there so it's still pricey, but has good XBL community support and everybody would be starting on the same playing field.  This is another shooter, and is the #3 top game on Gamespot right now.
• Red Dead Redemption: Extremely new, from the makers of Grand Theft Auto 4 (and similar in game type).  This is a sandbox world kind of game, but has GTA4-style multiplayer...is the #1 top rated game on Gamespot right now.
• 2010 FIFA World Cup: A popular game on XBL right now, this is EA's latest FIFA soccer game.  Like all their other sports games, it now supports much more extensive multiplayer with 4 player co-op, or what appears to be 4v4 multiplayer versus mode.  If folks want an alternative to the FPS staple.
• Other: If you have another game to suggest, please leave a comment here.

GT wont' be on tonight

For those that get this on RSS and e-mail, I won't be able to make H2 night tonight at 10pm. A 6am meeting got scheduled after I wrote the post. I did verify during the day today, however, that the downloads are all available and that matchmaking is working correctly. Today is the last day you'll ever be able to play Halo 2 on Xbox Live, so get it while it's good! I sucked pretty hard, so wouldn't have helped you guys anyway.
