krystyn, you got me good a few times with a sword! It was a lot of fun. I think the beekeepers are the best people I have met in Live and are the most fun to play with.

I did have a couple of extra people on my box. Most of them dont have their own xbox, so I though I would share. Anyway, Im totally down next time you are all online. Green team rocks!

Ok, I bought a controller with a headset yesterday, so I'll sign up tonight. Hope to meet some of you!

What kind of games are you guys playing?

Where are you people getting that sword???

Don't feel bad Kristen... I was right down there with you. Smile

Though I think I did get a few good licks in... Can I be AngryPacifist? (As long as AngryBuddist doesn't mind... Wouldn't want to make him... any more... angry...)

Getting started from scratch

As you know, I have been tracking the cheapest way to get started playing Halo 2 on Xbox Live. Here's a few ideas for other folks who haven't bought an Xbox yet.

The Xbox Holiday Bundle is $150 everywhere. Buy it from Toys-R-Us on Amazon.com, and pick up the $10 gift code, free shipping, and no tax. If you can, find one of the Chirstmas catalogs that Toys-R-Us mailed to customers. That catalog contains a 20% coupon for any one item. That would bring your Xbox down to $130 shipped or in-store, if Amazon/Toys-R-Us will take it for an Xbox.

Another option: Sam's Club has a slightly different Xbox bundle. It adds the DVD remote and a 2nd controller for a total of $187, plus tax. You could also get Halo 2 at Sam's: $45 standard edition, $49 limited edition.

RoboGRIFF tells me that there's a deal on the CheapAssGamer.com forums for Halo 2 LE for $50 flat, shipped by UPS.

Yesterday eCost.com was running Halo 2 LE in a bargain countdown for $46+$4 handling; now it's back up to $50+$4. Today, eCost.com is offering Halo 2 standard for $43+$4 handling in another bargain countdown.

$149.99 Xbox at Amazon/Toys-R-Us
$ 46.90 Halo 2 at eCost
----------
$196.89

Not bad. I have a relative that's going to check one more warehouse store for me today. If that's no cheaper, the deal above is what I'll buy.

He is Angri, though, so he might not send his Zen lawyers to come getcha.

Yeah, I loved that when I finally got focused and paid a little more attention (I was so tired yesterday, that I kept getting adrenaline rushes, and I'd just not know at all what I was doing), I could make some clean kills with that sword.

The worst thing? Running with the sword and seeing a red dot coming closer ... closer ... and there's nothing I can do about it except run and run, because I am stuck in the ramps, and if I jump anywhere, it'll land me in the deep abyss. While the abyss is pretty, it's not fun for very long. Sad

So then I get sliced. At least with the swords I don't have to watch you people continue to kill me after I was dead. Man, that made me mad! Someone would totally beat me down, and then shoot me for several seconds as I was waiting to re-spawn. Heh. Bastardos.

ETA: Oh, also? One of the best moments last night was a prox headset moment: I was at one of the highest non-jumpable points in Ivory Tower, and I was merrily sniping away, and as people would run by down below, I'd hear them exclaim, "Gahhhh! what was that? Where the hell is that coming from??? Aahhhhh!" Aw haw haw haw yeah.

Hi folks

Sounds like you had a rockin good time. I've been on a bit but haven't run across any of you guys/gals yet.

Anyway, I just posted in the guest book over on bungie.net while checking out the SPDR Ninjas clan. It's big! Which got me to thinking I may want to start up another one. I'm not sure who has or hasn't signed up for SPDR ninjas and as much as I would like to the mass amount of members has kinda turned me away. So, I thought, "Hey, if I start one we could get some nice competetive(yet FUN) games going on."

That's my idea in the birthing canal as of now. I thought of it because, quite frankly, I can't stand Incitatus an I don't want to join his clan. I'm not the best organizer so if someone else has been thinking about it and wants to take the lead by all means, go for it. I'll support you(I'm a great support person Wink )

If anyone is interested just say so and we'll get the cogs in motion. Until then keep your eye on the red dot.

~JP

Krystyn, are you going to be on tonight?

I should be hopping on live around 7 p.m. CST. My tag is MCO angelo.

I got to play with lilprincess, dane (what's his gamertag again?), DiscipleN2K, and a couple non-beekeepers that popped in every so often.
I was really ticked when I first set up my xbox and went to hook up my headset and found that the module the you plug the headset into your controller with was no where to be found. So the first few games with lilprincess I didn't have any way to communicate. After about three games I got tired of not being able to talk and decided to run across town and buy a headset. By the time I got back lilprincess and dane had already left. Sorry guys. Maybe tonight.

Latest updates:

If my last update was the same as the previous one, I apologize. I'm running off of two hard drives at the moment, one of which is half dead, and I couldn't remember which drive had the updated file. Hopefully this one will be up to date.

Ok, I was totally playing campaign last night, so sorry for all those people who added me and kept inviting me... now that campaign's done, I'll try some live gaming... I had to re-learn the contorl scheme because there's no jumpty button layout, meaning I had to switch from southpaw sticks to default... complete alteration of the control scheme I'm used to... I have train my right thumb now to aim, and that was rough... I still revert back sometimes in the middle of gameplay Razz

But look for me tonight, later, like 9pm on, ET... I want to finally be able to chat with some of these fellow beekeepers here Smile and get my butt whooped...
