Aww come on didley, you should be like me, run cat5(because its better than wifi), then "find" movies online. I just have to find 3 movies a year, and I've saved the cost of my xbox live subscription. I got into the xbox, because it had live before PSN came out, and the halo series(early games not reach), are arguably the best multiplayer of all time. Seriously though, if you need some cat5 let me know, I've got ton of it and as long as you're in a single story, its almost always super easy to wire.

Dave thanks for link, I'll let this one die and bump that one.

I normally run it wired if I'm gaming (better latency), but I have next to no time to myself now; especially time to myself with the TV.

Halo was HUGE for Xbox in getting their market share. I don't know a single person who had Xbox from the start who didn't buy it for Halo (primarily). I was never into that franchise, but I respect what they did with it (at first anyways... they of course had to drive it into the ground). Now there's a Halo 4 coming out? Geez.

Blu-ray player sold me on the PS3 to be honest. Back when you couldn't get a dedicated blu-ray for under $200, it was just economical, so-to-speak, to get a PS3 with a blu-ray in it.

I have both an OG XBox and a 360 and have never owned a single Halo game. I've played 1, 2, and 3, though.

I guess I just didn't get in on the Halo thing soon enough. I'm unbelievably competitive and getting my ass handed to me over and over was no bueno. I was a total boss at the first CoD, though. Was a server administrator and part of a team... now I have this crappy thing called a job and I grew up a little. Playing with my son is way more rewarding!! :P

The only thing I have played online recently was BF3. I planned on doing a little of that this summer, but my Charter connection really blows....so, no BF3 multiplayer for me.

And each one is worse than the last. That is how it goes with the once truly competitive games. They dumb them down to gain a bigger market share of the casual once a month gamers, by crapping on the ones who plan to really log some hours. Perfect example is the support killstreaks in MW3.

LOL, I was probably one of the people on the other side of that equation. That's to be expected considering halo 2 was middle/high school for me(mega spare time). In hind sight this is a bit embarrassing for me, but I was actually sponsored to go to MLG chicago in 05, by gamer graphix.

Didley said:

Yeah, I run and gun, so high kill streaks for me usually doesn't happen. I don't mind the support killstreaks as they generally suck for what I want to do. Advanced UAV made assassin pretty important. I tried to play without it, but I just like the ability to surprise people who relax when the UAV pops up.

Aren't you on my friends list already?




Yeah, I mean I like MW3, but the dominance of dual wielding machine pistols, the people running UAV/counter UAV with no 3rd streak on support with hardline pro, really makes me stay on MW2. The noob tubing is bad, but it doesn't happen often, and as long as you don't have the DLC maps, you usually get a good map. I had a 4 nuke 143 and 8 game on rundown today.
