Last nights Gaming events, with your host...CREEPY! ^_^

Note, you'll have to excuse my bad grammer and spelling


The Setting: Creepys house, brothers room.

The participants:

Olli,My Brother:"The one who pieces about."

Tom:"The arrogant pro."

Gavin: "The Victim."

Creepy/Josh: "the Full-timer." ¬_¬


The events that take place are within 6pm til 10pm...


We started with some HALO 2 vs. 2 first to 15 kills, my brother and I went together and went straight for the warthog and started mowing them down. After some complaining and stamping of feet we got out and started getting pummelled by their warthog (¬_¬) the game ended up 15-7 to ME

After some team changing and then arguments over the stats we decided to do some all against all. The first game was just plain stupid, with all the vehicles and all human weapons, i headed straight for the tank and won:

Me: 15
Tom: 7
Olli (Bro): 0
Gavin: 0

classic.


We then moved onto some Topspin, and i tell you this game is HILARIOUS in 4 player. the teams were:

Tom & Josh

vs.

Brother & Gavin


After many aces by yours truly in the first set it started off well and then the sheet hit the god damn fan

2 1 1
0 3 3

We did the same again and we won

2 3 2
0 1 0


Then lost:

2 1 1
0 3 3

.....again ¬_¬

Classic moment: Olli Serves and Josh smacks it down the line thinking he's got it he slides back on his chair talking about his victory, but Olli returns it and it just bounces past me. oh how they laugh at my stupidity :P


After much bantering and laughing we decided to move onto some PGR 2, 4 player. I suggested we all went for the same group of cars...and they all went for different groups. typical.

obviously, I whooped there sissy a-holes (:P) and then the next race we all choose the same category ;)

And the track...why Nürburgring of course.

Josh: "This track is like 10 minutes"

Everyone else: "pffft! we'll do it in like 5"

Josh: "sigh"

After a loooong race it was:

1st by miles: Gavin

2nd: Josh

3rd: Tom

Dead freaking least: Olli

Tom and Olli just battled through the whole race, ramming into each other etc.

We straight away moved onto another game (LOL :P) the game being: Time splitters 2

Olli, Josh, Tom and Gavin VS. EVERY OTHER BOT WE COULD GET IN! :D

Capture the bag on ICE STATION first to 5.

we got raped -_-'

Back to HALO for some last 30 minutes of all vs. all the ice level.

Gavin: "josh isn't aloud the tank" ¬_¬

Classic moment:

Tom and Gavin battle it out face to face with pistols with a slight sound of a engine in the back ground, they still battle almost dead the engine sound getting louder...."NNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW" "SPLAT"

Josh runs them both over with a warthog :D Oh how i laugh :D

Had a bit of a palava with system link Halo last night - only one of the TV's would work! Mate "the beast" got a new huuuuge tv, except it was blatantly a display model, and it didn't have a remote (so we couldn't use SCART!), and the speakers were knackered - he wasn't happy. So we went back to the small tv.

We normally play either only rockets or only snipers, infinite grenades, and all vehicles, 25 kills, 10-second suicide penalty, 5-second death respawn. Not one to blow my own horn, but I normally win :) Last night was a particularly good night. Snuggly and Beast are both very good, but I managed to romp home in rocket mode with only 7 deaths to 25 kills! Hopefully Snugs will hurry up and get the sack from his new job, so I can go round and play some more system link - us student layabouts only get 3 weeks off for Easter, y'know!

I've got too an age where I'd rather go out with mates than stay in and play computer games, so online gaming is perfect for when I get bored of the same old AI opponents.

Yep Friday I played Turok Evolution, Red Faction 2, DOA3 and SWON all in vs modes.

Good stuff.

Wish Turok was online though.

This is why we don't need online gaming, at least on consoles anyway. Multi-Player with a few mates beats it hands down, I hope Nintendo never go online properly, it's the best for multi-player madness.

Heh. Pro Evolution Soccer 3 multiplayer - the phrase "Ah you've gotta be joking..." has been said by me and my mates to utter exhaustion :D

Abit i missed out:

On HALO:
Gavin and I got into an arguement (not a real one just a muck about) and he started shooting me with the rocketlauncher so I told him to stop and he laughs and stops and says: "damn my healths low now" so I said "hey come here and i'll heal you" so I walked up, walked up behind him
*smack* around te back of the head, out cold :D everyone falls about laughing then tom blows us up with a tank ¬_¬

This is proof that HALO multiplayer will never die out. brilliance
