The complimentary Halo 2 post
Nov. 15th, 2004 12:13 amSo, I've been playing much more of the game since my last post about the subject. Been playing online with my new clan called the "Frag Weasels" (not my choice!). In the clan with me is
sandroo,
furyfox, Lomax (who all live in the same house), and
utlah74. We've basically being taking advantage of the new ways of playing which Halo 2 has been advertising such as challenging other teams and people as a group and improving our level and stuff. It's been a right laugh, my only problem (as with all Xbox Live games) is the foul mouthed teenage americans. Fortunately, you can mute them so all is not bad. Seem to be getting loads of people on my Xbox friends list so it shouldn't proove too difficult to have a game with people I know, etc. I've added
nidonocu who I've not heard of before but appears to be a nice chap and the Halo obsessed
orona_red too so I look forward to playing them. I don't know why but the whole thing is just so much more fun than playing multiplayer games on the PC. One other great feature is that up to 3 extra friends can play on the same Xbox online and join games, however not on my TV, I've only a 21".
So anyway, the game is prooving to be very much worth my money and in the long term should serve to saving me spend any more. Really need to save money right now as I'm already too far into my overdraft and I've still got 2 weeks before I get paid :-/. Anyway, I should go off to bed now. Back to work tomorrow and I've got a cold. I just hate it how the common cold makes you feel snotty and uncomfortable but never to such a degree that you feel you can take a day off work without feeling guilty... maybe that's just me tho :P I am a mug when it comes to work afterall.
