    Man, I'm just getting worked trying to get into this multiplayer business. Maybe I should just take my friend's advice and just play unranked lone wolf until I learn the maps. 4 on 4 shotty/snipers on that map that looks like a construction yard was just an exercise in frustration.

    God, I wish we could rig this somehow. I've only even had ONE chance to get the Triple Kill with Sword achievement and I blew it. The Four Kill one I'm sure I'll get through dumb luck if I play enough but, man, I'm not very good. If only Social Games counted I'd have it by now from Infection alone.

    I got SO lucky and someone let me get a 4 kill, because we all sat around in a circle and took turns. Best pug ever.

    I have that skull, and now want to find all the easter-eggs. He's not listed in the credits, i noticed. Interesting.

    edit: the Tank Marine people are talking about, is Wash from Firefly/Serenity. Reportedly, anyway, since i'm rubbish at identifying his voice.

    Yes, it's Wash (Alan Tudyk). Also in the game are Nathan Fillion who is Malcom Reynolds (Reynolds out.), Adam Baldwin who is Jayne Cobb (HERE'S VERA!), and Katee Sackoff, who is Starbuck from Battlestar Galactica.


    Also, let's see here...gotta still get the metagame scores for the fourth, fifth, and last missions. Not too bad.

    i knew the Firefly guys were in there, but i'm pretty sure apart from hearing Wash on the tank, Jayne somewhere in Voi on the way to the AA gun, and Mal a couple of times, the rest of the cast was voiced by the Aussie. At least, that's who i heard whenever i was listening.

    *shrugs* I went to MLG 2005 Las Vegas for a SSBM tourney and had an absolute blast. I got my ass kicked (didn't even survive the round robin preliminaries), but it was a lot of fun. Granted, a good deal of the entertainment was admiring the skill of other players (holy crap, watching Zelgadis play his Fox), but the Halo and various 2d fighter tourneys going on at the same time were fun to watch as well. It was also a huge DS hotspot.

    People give pro-gaming a lot of shit and I can understand why, but the events themselves are still a lot of fun even if you don't care about the tourneys.

    Hey, I got nothing against gaming events in general.



    It just seems presumptuous, to me, for some organization to just sort of declare themselves to be the "major league" of my hobby.



    Much like the US government and Hamas, I do not recognize the MLG to be a legitimate body.

    A few of the guys from the MLG forums (and some of the pros) I played with were pretty alright guys. Most of them, though, were pretentious dicks...and they really got mad when I'd dual-needler them to death.

    Go read the Bungie forums and listen to them whine about not having their own playlist. They truly are a bunch of holier then thou assholes. They expect special treatment just because the are the self proclaimed "Major League Gamers". Nevermind they only account for a fraction of the player base but that wont stop their sense of self entitlement from throwing a bitch fit.
