Next week (April 15) Xbox Live support will be removed from Original Xbox titles. This Friday, I'd like to play some Halo 2 (Xbox, not Vista).
Who's with me? ;D
Afterwards, we can play whatever game is suggested the most on this thread.
I don't have Halo 2 so i'm out, Gears 2 sounds nice however ;D
No Halo 2 for me either, sorry. I was going to buy Bad Company 2 today so I can join in on games nights again but I just can't bring myself to shell out £40 for it. I also want to get the GOTY edition of Batman: AA but that's retailing at £35!
I'll be up for Gears 2 though :)
So far it looks like we'll be playing Gears 2 after I'm finished playing Halo 2 by myself. :D

Game Nights start roughly 10:30 GMT (5:30 EST).
I think we can probably consider our entire Halo 2 session a "warm up game". We're all going to be shite, which will be fun. ;)

10.30!! that's perfect!!! Yeah sounds like a good laugh considering I put like 2 years into that game :D
Yay Halo 2. Although if my child carries on the way she has been doing I wont be playing. She hasn't slept through the night once since I came back from Wales :'( Over the past two days I have slept for a maximum of 4 hours :'(

I'm always up for BC 2 i don't have halo 2 anymore (not had it since 2006) if there is a gears match i would be up for that too.
The only xbox game I have anymore is.... Guilty Gear X2 Reloaded Remasters Regenerated Remix.
I might be in for some Gears 2 though. Or Modern Warfare 2, but then I know you fellows hates it.
Unless, of course, someone is up for being pwnzered by me in Guilty Gear.
I've got Halo 2 somewhere as well and never played it online.If I can find it I'll have a blast with you.

Battlefield is the way forward after some battlerifle poonage on halo2.... by the way we may get proper dominated in Matchmaking as my friend told me only the hardcore and the best of the best still play it :(
I'm a little scared... maybe some custom games? :D
I wont be online tonight. I need sleep. I will catch up with you next week instead :)

So nobody will be playing tonight then, what with our complete lack of organisation when you're not around ;D

I'm playing halo2.... haven't teabagged someone in ages :P
I'll begin hosting Halo 2 around 10:30 GMT (5:30 EST).
For anyone that doesn't have Halo 2, feel free to host BFBC2, Gears2, or whatever you want.
If more than 2 people join me, we'll do some private / custom matches.
After a few matches and we're bored with Halo 2, we'll join whatever other game is being hosted (Gears 2 ;)).
I'll join you for some halo action,then it's BF:BC 2 for me.
I have just found my Halo 2 so i will play that, i've never played it online so that'll be fun, Gonna play some Gears or BC2 or whatever after we get over the nostalgia!

Is anyone likely to be playing Gears 1 or 2? If not I'll just carry on watching season 3 of Battlestar Galactica?

I've been meaning to watch season 3/4/5 for ages, had them on DVD for over a year and have finally started to watch them. The one thing that really annoys me about the program is the Baltar "dream sequences" but the last two episodes I watched have started to explain that.
I have one complaint though so far from season 3, changing Boomer's call sign is just wrong!!!
thats because she's not boomer, she's athena( a completely different cylon) :)

huh? because she' now a "good" cylon? Or have I missed something (or just not watched enough of the season yet)?

boomer and athena are 2 different cylons. think of them as identical twins. they look the same, but each has their own consciousness.
im not sure how far you've gotten into the series, but if you've seen the New Caprica episodes yet, boomer is on the planet with baltar and athena is on the galactica
Oh yeah, I've seen 7 episodes of season 3 so far. I'd watch the New Caprica episodes about 6 months ago, so just started re-watching season 3 from the episode where they almost kill Gator. Am slightly confused about the Boomer situation. The Boomer on board Galactica now is the one who gave birth to (and is married to) Helo right? The original Boomer is the one that shot Adama? As I haven't seen it for a while where did she end up then?
Edit: If I remember rightly Cally kills the original Boomer but she gets downloaded in to a new body. After that I have no idea what happens to her. If she was on new Caprica what happened to her after Galactica rescues the colonists? I've forgotten :-[
Regardless I now realise why Athena is Athena and not Boomer :) Thanks :)
