D&D Xbox 360 thread -- TF2 is the game of kings!

So with the new Xbox Fall update that you should all be receiving the next time you turn on your console, it's possible to view a friends profile, move over to the right tab, and then view the friends of your friend that are online.

Which allows group networking to be muuuuuch easier, via creating a dummy account for this board! Which I have done!

Everyone on D&D who wants access to an online Live userlist of buddies, add "PA DnD" (sorry, no symbols, or at least not that I could find for the "&"). I will accept the friend request, and then by scrolling down to that account and viewing its friends online, you will be able to see who is online and what they're playing without having to go through the trouble of adding a huge list of accounts in the OP.

Add one account -- PA DnD -- get access to all of D&D.

Beyond that, we can use this to organize online gaming sessions. I've been on TF2 a ton lately and not much else. I have been curious about Halo 3, but I haven't really been interested in wading through the unwashed masses to find out what interest lay in it for me. If we want to organize a time to play that, I'd be pretty into that.

    Added.

    You guys know that you can add friends on www.xbox.com, right?

    edit: also, Orange Box was like the only online title that was left me after the robbery, so I should be playing some of that in between Mass Effect.

    Also: the WMP11 media sharing thing works for shit.

    Don't be concerned if the PA DnD profile won't be logged on much, as obviously I can't play games while using it, but you can still check it out in your inactive friends list and see which of its friends is online

    Beyond that -- anyone here interested in making a Halo 3 play date? I'm assuming that would be the game that the most of us have.

    I also have Bomberman and Puzzle Fighter in Xbox Live Arcade, and would love to have some people to play those against.

    Also Thursday night works for me as far as playing Halo 3 goes.

    I wouldn't mind some more Gears of War, either. I played that with strangers once and it was harrowing.

    Fantastic idea, cel, I'll be adding this in an hour or so (need to re-up my Live account).

    At the moment I'm only down for CoD4 and GoW, but hopefully I'll have a job soon, and monies for TF2 and Halo3

    Yeah, that was my first time playing Halo 3 online. I've logged like 70h in TF2 now, and switching gears from the one to the other felt really weird.
