XBL Night Tonight (4/1)

Post by erilar »

Download them free H3 maps! If we end up with 4 or less and everyone is game, Cory requested to work on the Halo campaign in co-op.

Also, remember to pick out and trick out a Class D car for FM2 if you have time. (You have to stay under 400 pts for Class D, so it doesn't take much fiddling or cash.)

I'll probably log on a little earlier than our normal start time if I can get the bills finished. Want to get past a point where I'm stuck in CoD4. Man, what an awesome game!

I still have some housework to do, but I should be on by 9.

I however will be working on an Italian AB 41 armored car (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AB_41) done up in RSI markings. In fact the color illustration in that link is the very vehicle!

I'll try and be on tonight, but I may just skip out. I've been going to bed earlier so I can get up earlier in the morning. By 9 I'm usually pretty tired.

Damon -

If for some crazy reason you might deign to take a break, I wanted to point out something truly amazing. You know that one colored cable plugged into the back of your Xbox? I'm not sure whether you knew or not, but it goes the whole way to the Internet! It's crazy, I tell you!

Wait - that's not everything! I know you've said you like Halo. Well, you're in luck, my friend! Microsoft hired some scientists from the future to put the power of Electronical Fun-Time Projection Technology (TM) in our Xbox 360s. One can actually play their favorite game over electrical wirings - with their friends! From the comfort of their own homes! (I think it uses steam power somehow, or maybe witchcraft.)

Remember about model glue - think about your health, man. Taking an hour break to play video games with us may prolong your life by maybe seconds or even minutes! **

I can see why you like doing these tanks and vehicles - they are really cool looking. The third, higher set of wheels - those are just spares, right? Not on an axle??

Its a spare that is free-turning, so it offers some support when negotiating bad terrain...

Not all vehicles had this; the AB 41 was unusual in that it did.

I've downloaded the maps for Halo, and have a few D class cars ready to go.

I'll be on by 9pm at the latest.

Yay Xbox night! :)

That's what I was wondering - looked like it would help the vehicle from bottoming-out if it could turn.

So come play Halo with us already!!

Were you having connection issues, or were you just being silly?

The latter.

Also Kaylee doesn't want to go to bed anymore, so every night is a struggle to convince her she should go to sleep...

OK. :) Well, hope you can join us sometime soon! Last night was very fun. We're not all hardcore - just get together and blow stuff up and laugh our butts off. :D
