Pre-Pax Multiplayer Gaming for the Summer Times

BadNews65BadNews65 Data Solutions AnalystArkansasRegistered User regular
Hey fellow Paxers, I had an idea that I think would help us forumers become closer friends and have some fun while doing it, way before Pax ever gets started.

We are all obviously in to gaming so why don't we all game together? In this thread we can share our user names for our respective online venues of choice. Looking for friends to play psn games with? Perhaps xbox live, or a Nintendo game? Not in to consoles, no problem list your steam user name or user name for the MMO, or online game you may be playing.

Any games that you would like to find people to play with, or would like to get in to, feel free to list them here. I greatly enjoy meeting new people and playing video games so I figure this is an amazing chance to meet some awesome people and make new friends while doing the thing we all love (gaming.)

What this thread is not for:

Let's not turn this thread in to a social media share, lets not share facebook links, youtube links, or anything of that sort. I would like to keep this just about friends and gaming together.

I think this is a great opportunity to break the ice and meet friends before pax, and could help all of us be a lot more social. For first time Pax goers, or those of you coming to Pax alone this is an awesome way of making a group of friends that will already be waiting for you there to enjoy the convention with.

So I will go ahead and get this thing started as sort of a template.

PSN (p3,ps4,psvita) - User name: Badnews65
Xbox live (xbox 360) - User name: Badnews65
Nintendo (3ds,WiiU) - User name: Badnews65
Steam (pc) - User name: Badnews65

Games I currently play online:
Call of Duty Ghosts (ps4)
Killzone Shadowfall (ps4)
Border Lands 2 (steam)
Dayz (steam)
Mario Kart (WiiU)

We could even post games we are wanting to get in to but don't currently have anyone to play with, for example I have always wanted to try Mine Craft but never had friends that played it.

I am certainly open to play any other games online, so I look forward to seeing what other games you all are playing and am certainly looking forward to playing those games with you all.

    I think this thread is a great idea. One more point though, we have a vast Games and Technology section on the PA forums (with a huge subsection for MMOs). If you want to discuss a particular game, that's the place to do it. This is just for connecting with other paxers :)

  • RiDERiDE the WORST! Hotel CaliforniaRegistered User regular
    I really love this idea, it can be really hard to meet other gamers (apparently we all just sit around waiting for PAX :D) so this is awesome.


    XBox 360: post rapture

    I have: Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Red Dead Redemption, Borderlands, Borderlands 2, Minecraft, Dead Island


    My husband and I usually play games together so there'd be 2 of us.

    This is such an awesome idea!

    I have both a PS3 and a PC with Steam. That being said, I'm almost never on my PS3...while I'm on Steam pretty often.

    I also have a 3DS and I'll update this post when I'm able to see what my friend code is.

    I play Animal Crossing, Mario Kart and Pokemon X for 3DS.
    On Steam, I play Defiance, Borderlands, Watch Dogs, Assassin's Creed, aaaand etc. Any popular game that has MP, I probably have.
    I also play games like Diablo, Starcraft and WoW. I'll update the post when I'm able to retrieve my friend ID # for that. Same with the game SWTOR.

    I used to play defiance and Swotr, perhaps I can dust those games off. If anyone else has borderlands 2 for steam/pc we can do some 4 player co op.


    Rhea, I have watchdogs for psn as well. Is there any co op multiplayer on there? I know you can be invaded sort of like Darksouls. I will be happy to add you to PSN to see if there are any other games we have in common to play.

    Great idea, BadNews65. I'm looking forward to adding some PAX attendees.

    I'm mostly on my PC, so you can find me on Steam - Zombicus (Pibson is my display name). I use the same account name for Xbox Live. My Battle.net tag is Pibson#1286, for anyone playing Blizzard games.

    I own plenty of PC games, but I'd love to fire one of the Xboxes up for any Halo title or some Titanfall with any of you.

    Sweet. I'm mostly spending my time on PC these days since. I'm up for Titanfall, CS: GO, Borderlands 2, TF2, Starcraft 2, L4D2... lots of things. If only FTL was multiplayer! I've also played more Dota 2 than I care to admit, though that has been like a once a week deal lately.

    But like BadNews said, I'd be up for expanding to some other stuff with a group--I've had fun with Minecraft but only played it for a few hours with my nephew. And my brother's been trying to get me into Hearthstone...

    This is a fantastic idea ! I'm often PC gaming with my girlfriend mostly games like Dark Souls 2, elder scrolls online, counter strike and the such.

    Xbox360: Gamaknight007
    Steam : gamaknight

    ( I know the spelling is off, I made these accounts when I was about 14 7 years ago with the help of my older brother. Unfortunately neither allow you to change it without cash. (Or in steams case not at all))

    I game mostly in the night pacific time so if you want a hand with getting through a hard boss in dark souls sign me up for some jolly cooperation!

    Bonus I play with my significant other so more likely then not you will get two for one!

    Oh yeah isn't that ridiculous? Thankfully I was able to change my xbox gamer tag when the 360 1st came out (I believe they gave everyone 1 free name change) since I got tired of people thinking 'Heihachi' was 'Hitachi' and of course getting heckled all game since at the time Heihachi was a Tekken character only on PS1 / PS2

    Good friend of mine (goes by AMJacker on most networks) hosts Friday Night Magic at Earl's on the Ave (21+ only.) It's not an official bar function (Earl's is a dive-y sports/college bar known for strong drinks), but he usually has at least two large tables claimed and a Twitch stream going the whole night. Starts whenever friends show up after work; 5, 6ish, sometimes 4ish. All (21+) are welcome.

    Sorry for going tabletop in this thread, but I think it fits the ice breaking theme (for locals, at least.)

    I have a 3DS but the only games I currently own for it are Animal Crossing and the latest Zelda. I own Minecraft but it gets kind of dull without someone to talk to or feeling uninspired to build something.

    That is a great idea Elderborn. I have not played even 1 second of Minecraft but wouldn't mind getting in to it, are we talking PC or console version? I have been slacking on my friend adding since I have been out most weekends these past few weeks. Also for all of our PS4 friends the Destiny Alpha has been extended. I will be on there tonight. Feel free to join me.

    so there actually already is a fairly substantial minecraft server run by forumers. Its activity comes and goes, but there's a lot there.
    http://paxcommunity.net/minecraft

    it's a couple steps behind the official release because we run bukkit and the multiverse mod usually lags behind a tad. There's two survival only maps, a creative only map, and then our map with pax on it. We have a fully done up BCEC, and a mostly constructed WSCC. the "seattle" around the WSCC needs a /lot/ of work though.

    hey guys, there is now a steam group that allows the people who posted their steam name on this site (by invite on steam) to to be in one group so everyone can get to know each other better and have game events done more effectively. It would be a bit more organized and also gives a chance to see who is coming to Pax this year! If you don't won't to be in the group that is fine, but i think be a good idea to get more people included in games that allows at a lot of players to join at once more easily.

    Everyone who posted a steam handle here will get invited, but please let me know if you haven't got one yet. I will check back from time to time here to keep the group updated.

    So I've been suckered into the Steam sale, I so far have purchased Dragon Age, Skyrim, Long Live the Queen, and Windborne. I'm really intrigued by the last two as one is a dating simulation game of a sorts where you try to make it to your coronation day without dying.
