 Failed, If there are two Weeks a month spare on Saturday's, How about making one of those Retro night, Maybe picking a game from Yesteryear.
 I bet everyone has a few games knocking about that they don't get to play online with, I'm thinking the likes of: Gears 1 (keep GM happy ;)) Halo 3, Prey, Far Cry 2, The Darkness, Quake Wars or many more, Even something like GTA, Not necessary these games but you get the picture just older games to play once a month.
  Considering you could probably buy the older games for around a fiver people might pick them up if they think they will get played by the community.

It's just an idea, Would like to know what you think Failed and other members.

Great idea, especially the Gears 1 part  :)


dfusioness

im for gears 1, still need a load of cheeves

Dankinia

I will see if I can borrow Gears 1 from my nephew or get it cheap at a local store. 

dfusioness

you should be able to get it cheap , let me know x

Failed

we play enough Gears 2, Gears 1 is the same game but you can't tag grenades.

I was thinking something we've probably all played SP but no MP.

Prey
Darkness
Frontlines
Lost Planet
Unreal Tournament 3
FEAR
Turok
Perfect Dark Zero
Stranglehold
Red Faction Geurilla

I avoided games like Bad Company, Gears and PGR3 because they have sequels we could play instead. All games above are around the 5 mark to buy $ or £.

I've got Unreal Tournament 3, I can get FEAR, always liked that game, I only have the Colonies version of Lost Planet which doesn't carry over my online level from the standard version  :(  still need to get the standard version again. 
The Darkness is crap online but you can boost for all the achievements, same goes for Perfect Dark Zero, always a good thing.   :)

i have none of the above games  :'(

Bold for those in my current collection. Some of the others, if they're on the cheap, I'd be interested in hitting up at some point.

NODAK

You can count me in for BF:BC2 on the 21st.  :)

As for the retro theme, I would join a Gears 1 gamenight just out of curiosity.  I still haven't ever played an online match.  Gears was the 2nd time game I tried on Live and I quickly learned newbies were unwelcome.  Gave up after trying to join a dozen games.

And, as recently as Nov, I still played Red Faction: Guerrilla weekly.  :D
In fact, the recent official game night with the Volition devs was a lot of fun.  I don't think there'll ever be that many people in matchmaking lobbies ever again. I'm a little weary of that game now, but I'd happily join if you need some warm bodies to frag.

I have prey and darkness, they are super cheap so we could get you a copy of them too vicki. I would also be willing to buy two copies of some of the others too, they really are cheap as chips now. great idea!

Failed

Great turn out Friday, let's keep this up and i'll be a happy Failed!!  :-*

dfusioness

i will always try to attend, if i have the game, if not will p chat, and of course it depends on work x

Dankinia

As long as I can escape work early enough, I will be there for most of them.

Failed

If anyone would like games changing for Febuary, let me now, i was thinking of swapping in a Call of Duty for one of those games!

sambo

I'd be up for a bit of Blops, Need to get my money's worth somehow.
