and I’d like to have some friends from the Dope. Look me up if you want to play some Halo 2. Username: **MyDarnSnakeLegs** I’ll eventually be getting Mech Assault 2, but Halo is all I play for the moment. -Mike ---

Miltonyz I play Halo2 a lot, mostly rated games. If you send a message telling me you are from the board I’ll jump in some custom games with you. MechAssault2 occasionally not often. NFS2 Starwars Battlefront. ---

Find the **Haus Rocka** on any given Sunday afternoon and he will lead you to the promised land. Or at least blow a bunch of stuff up trying to get there. ---

Good times. I’ll send out some firent-requests. I really only play the ranked games too. I like Team Slayer the best, so I spend most of my time there. I haven’t really ventured into the rumble pit very often. Maybe I’ll give that a try. I finally got my headset, so I’ll be talking smack at last. 🙂 ---

Since the game was so damn popular, it attracted every asshole on the planet somehow. I still enjoy the game a great deal, just be prepared to deal with a lot of freaks. If you’re interested, there are two games that I’ve found to have awesome online communities, they are Crimson Skies and Burnout 3. ---

I used to play Quake and Diablo II for hours on end. I’m not worried about jerks. I’ve actually found that there are a lot of pretty cool folks on there. Plus, if you play durring daylight in the US you get to play with the Kiwis and such. They are usually pretty polite and team-oriented. I would like to play with some civilized guys for a bit though. ---

Cool, team skirmish is my favorite also. Was level 13 for a while but a string of bad games took me back to 12 I believe. I like to pretend like I’m some great sniper but the truth is I kinda lost that skill after I took a long break from the game. The smack talk can get pretty bad, but most of the time if you just ignore it, it goes away. ---

My gamertag is: cisco md I’ve been informed that it won’t work without the space. I’ve got it unhooked at the moment, so you probably won’t see me on until _Forza Motorsports_ or some other compelling game comes out. When I’m on I’m on though, and always up for a game.
