Title: Xbox Live Party Thread
Description: Watch this space...


Manny M - September 10, 2004 02:35 AM (GMT)
Hola,

So I created a thread over at Hyper to "easily" organise Xbox Live gaming nights, and figured I should do the same here. But in order to keep it simple, i'll just give you the link to the thread at Hyper, and we can all use that thread for organisation.

If there are a few of you who want to attend, but don't have a Hyper account, or don't want to visit Hyper, then i'll post all the info here aswell.

I'm currently in the process of organising some BO3 gaming, so check it out.

Comrade Natrak - September 10, 2004 01:57 PM (GMT)
Funny thing is I was thinking about getting in contact with Xamer about arranging some Evo/Hyper Xbox Live games earlier today. Well, you know what they say about great minds. ;)

DJ-Civic - September 10, 2004 02:30 PM (GMT)
Yeah, great idea. Lets hope we get a lot of people signing up. :D

Manny M - September 11, 2004 03:57 PM (GMT)
Yep, first game we had (although with only 3 participants), was a blast, and I hope it to only get bigger.

Like I said, i'd prefer all organisation to go in the one thread, but i'll be posting confirmed times and dates for all Live Nights here as well.

I can't wait for a BO3 night.

DJ-Civic - September 12, 2004 01:39 PM (GMT)
You got that right. Just don't expect to last too long. :P

Lordage - September 12, 2004 02:42 PM (GMT)
I'll be up for it provided I have the game. :)

Manny M - September 13, 2004 01:04 AM (GMT)
Ok, Civ is posting in the party thread over at hyper, are you going to do the same Lordage?

Right now, discussion is on the table for a BO3 night some time this week.


***EDIT***

Disregard, I noticed your post in Hyper. :D

DJ-Civic - September 13, 2004 02:32 PM (GMT)
Is there a day in mind? I don't see one...

Manny M - September 14, 2004 12:03 AM (GMT)
Well no one has bothered to respond, so I think i'll be making it thursday night.

DJ-Civic - September 14, 2004 01:45 PM (GMT)
Be there and be square. :P

DJ-Civic - September 15, 2004 12:55 PM (GMT)
Ok, so we're still set for tomorrow at 8? If so, are we going to name our room something and have it locked with a password?

NismoR34 - September 15, 2004 01:48 PM (GMT)
Hm, seeing Civ and co playing the game would be pretty sweet. Is it possible for any of you to record the antics and upload them?

BrotherEstapol - September 15, 2004 11:23 PM (GMT)
Manny, you have a capture card. :cheese:

Manny M - September 16, 2004 12:42 AM (GMT)
Yeah, but it aint gonna happen. Mainly because I couldn't be arsed connecting my Xbox to my monitor etc etc.

I'll be posting the exact details later on.

It was great fun indeed, despite my 99.9999% winning ratio. Funny that I was "cheating" just cos I was winning. :P

I taped the whole event and when I get my new digital camera next week, I'll post some videos for all to see. :)

Comrade Natrak - September 16, 2004 01:40 PM (GMT)
Bah...99.9% my hiney! :P

More like 97%! Give us some cred! :P

Seriously though, perhaps if Civic had've put a series lock on the game instead of leaving us in the dust with his spiffy little Champ car that noone ese had things would've been even. <_<

Dirty Cheat. ;) :P

You need a headset badly Civic. I cannot stress that enough.

Anyway, it was a great fun session had by all, with lots of banter thrown back and forth. I look forward to doing it again. :D

Manny M - September 16, 2004 02:02 PM (GMT)
:lol:

Great fun had by all, and a bigger turnout than I expected, which was a good thing.

We all enjoyed paying out Civic, with no chance of him being able to reply because of the lack of headset.

Damn Civ.... <_<

NismoR34 - September 16, 2004 02:09 PM (GMT)
Sounds like you all had an awesome night. Who's the best at performing Takedowns?

Congrats Civ, guess I was right in thinking that you will provide some competition when I finally verse you. :P

Yeah, just you wait until I get a headset. No more Civ bashing! :hitler: :P

Manny M - September 16, 2004 09:49 PM (GMT)
I'll be waiting for a while, you cheapskate!

Nismo: No one really shone in particular with takedowns, pretty average across the board, although I was pretty much depended upon when it came to team road rage. I came so close to knocking civic out, then ended up smashing myself just before i hit him.

_MetalliX_ - September 17, 2004 04:47 AM (GMT)
Hang on, how do you get Live without a headset? Doesn't it come with the kit? :huh:

~DC - September 17, 2004 04:57 AM (GMT)
There were some special vouchers released with certain Microsoft published games that allowed two months Live service for free.

Manny M - September 17, 2004 11:09 AM (GMT)
Thus the appropriate use of the word, "cheapskate".

:D

Pauly - September 17, 2004 01:22 PM (GMT)
Damm sounds like you guys had fun. Not long now till I finish the HSC and get LIVE. Then I can join in on all the fun :thumbsup:

Cheapskate my ass! I got the 2 month trial in PGR2. I had to pay for that didn't I? :P

I just hope next time we have a BO3 session, people have unlocked MORE cars then the Compacts... :angry:

I got that on tape! You'll be able to laugh at Manny's misfortunes sometime next week. :lol:

Comrade Natrak - September 17, 2004 01:59 PM (GMT)
I think there were only one or two players with just compacts.

Manny M - September 17, 2004 02:45 PM (GMT)
yep, it was bronze and shadowknight, as they only had the game for an hour before joining us... so it aint really their fault. Was still fun though.

Yeah I know, my bad. :P

I actually raced ShadowKnight tonight again, but I was good enough to lock the races to compacts. ;)

NismoR34 - September 17, 2004 03:15 PM (GMT)
Did you still win? :P

Manny M - September 17, 2004 03:49 PM (GMT)
I'd say so.

I was actually going to venture on tonight, but got caught up playing UT2004 with Estapol instead.

Yeah, good fun, that. I was on a roll in that Party Crash, until i screwed up in the last two. :(

Oh it happens. I had a shocker run after you left when I versed someone. I managed to do $9000 total damage in 2 crashes! I was kicking myself there. ;)

Manny M - September 28, 2004 02:48 AM (GMT)
Ok guys, planning to do another one on thursday night.

Who wants to attend?

Manny M - September 28, 2004 05:12 AM (GMT)
Scrap that, it's now on on Wednesday night, at 9pm..

So, who's coming?
