Welcome To Containment

After a gnarly day of traveling yesterday, Tenlin and I made it to Vermont. Now we're having a multiplayer Christmas with her family. Luckily they have wireless Internet access in the condo so I'll be checking up on your gameplay while drinking fresh maple syrup straight out of the bottle.

Suicides on Action Sack Matches

Here is Mondo's typical performance in a heated Action Sack match on Live.

Happy Holidays

Hope everyone has a great holiday break. Tenlin and I are off to Vermont on Thursday to visit her family. Here's a little present for you guys. Thanks for all the good times.

Kong is Cool but the flick is not King

Jenny and I just got back from King Kong and I had to get my opinion on the blog fast.(getting a few(3) hours away from the kids on a Thursday night is always good, but not so much for this movie) Now I know why the video game demo seemed lame. The first hour is lame, the next hour is very cool CG and worth the buzz, and the last hour is just plain plain. If you read a good review, it is in my opinion way off. The Skull Island scenes are very good and the movie has much more than dinosaurs to see. Kong totally kicks arse, but the movie starts too slow and gets pushed over the edge to make it in a three hour window.
My pic is Frat House Attic with little to no ventilation and full of seeds. It'll get you buzzed, but not for very long and you won't take another hit.

The previews for Mission Impossible 3 & Da Vinci Code looked good.

360 is 'it' on the Daily Show

Get the 'it' gift Mondofresh.
Gotta love the Daily Show.

Xbox 360 Linky Roundup

In case you haven't had enough of the Xbox 360 talk by the clan, here is a list of links bound to tickle your fancy.

First, IGN takes a very comprehensive look at the X360 games coming in the next few months. There are some real gems here, so I recommend EBGames gift cards for your X360 friends and family for Christmas.

Already a classic for the Xbox, the Xbox 360 version of Burnout Revenge (coming March) looks even more impressive as GameSpot sits down for a Q&A with the executive producer.

An update on Sega's racing game, Full Auto.

I WORK at home...

Armleg and Tenlin hard at it at 10:00 AM Thursday....

Any 360 Pirate Games?

Clanmember, Mondo, wants to know if there's any Pirate Games in
the development queue for the 360. Arrrrghhhhh!!

Big shout out to J. Mickett, Esq - master of all things pirate.

360 Google Map Mashup

One of my favorite features that Google has developed is their maps. Even better - it's an open API so that anyone can customize the look and data that feeds into the map. What you get is a mashup where crazy data, practical data and freaky geeks collide.

The latest mashup: The Xbox 360 Inventory Tracker!!

This is 360 siting data and overlaying it on a Google map!!

I just wish Google would hurry up and add Zanzibar to their maps so I could start mashing up my brother, Mondo!

Rollin the Benz

With the help of my little red friend, I was able to get through the solo career on PGR3 last night. I went through on silver level difficulty (the middle), so I still have plenty of racing to do. The game is really fun. As a driving game, I think they hit the perfect balance of fun arcade style driving, offset by real world physics and handling.

See you on the track

Shark's new Baby

The newest member of the Shark family was delivered by my Nissan Xterra last night at around 10pm. She weighs 80.6 pounds, is 56 inches wide, and is a healthy happy baby named Samsung DLP. The father is doing well also.

Well, I made the jump into the HD era -- fuled by my love of the Xbox 360, Hockey, and HD...The downstairs living room is coming into shape. This is the next to last piece of the room (next up -- lighting).


To the right, a picture of the newest arrival next to the previous gaming box (the stand is coming today). In the center, the Xbox 360 and DishNet DVR.

And, for salivating, a pic of it with the 360 logo. Playing H2 last night was incredible. Unfortunately, I suck now because my view area has increased so much --- I'll have to retrain. :)

Adding an External Hard Drive to your 360

Anybody have the balls to try this mod on your precious new toy?

Halo Still Reigns

Today is one of those days where I'm still talking about the Halo 2 matches of yore. Well, not yore, but last night. What an awesome night of Haloing -- and all of it in "Awesome-Res" for those of you with the X360+HD combo. We should call that the "Free Combo" in honor of his impulse shopping.

At any rate...here are several games sure to put a smile on your face if you didn't get to attend last night. And, for those of you missing clan members, drop some calls to the guys, wish them happy holidays, and then drag their butts online to play!

We started out with a Multi-Team battle as we worked our way into 2nd. Not much to mention here, except that the red team was really obnoxious and loud -- but they backed it up.

You think we would have won a one flag match on Zanzi, but alas, not even a flag score. I blame this loss on the lame matchmaking teammates who all left the base.

A little Team Shotguns? Yep, in team training we split apart with some other guys and had a "blast" blowing each others heads off. 23 kills for me in this match, Mondo got his requisite sticky kill -- it was on me, his teammate.

Team slayer on Foundation. Um, yeah. It was just slightly unfair putting Armleg and myself on the same team, but I turned in 27 kills (best of the night) off 5 assists from Arm as the red team pulled away by 10. Free had 5 assault kills in this match (wow).

Round 1 against this bunch of folks -- a little slayer on Warlock. Beat them by 6 in a closely fought battle, 15 kills for Armleg, 22 for myself again. Kudos to Mondo for 3 beat downs.

Then round 2 against the same team. This one was much closer, with our team trailing most of the match, right up until the final 5. We had issues unseating them from the sniper tower on Lockout, but once we did, we regained the lead and won the match by 3. Another 23 kills for me, and mentions to Mondo with 3 assaults, but 2 jumps off the map.

The rest of the bunch continued as Rhyno took my place in the party and the group lost a close King match on Terminal before beating up on the other team in Fiesta on Ascension. Kudos on the last game to Armleg turning in 11 headshots. But, he was killed by a 6 year old.

Once again, drag those not-oft-seen clan members out of the closet and plug them in. Halo is just as good as ever and with Snow coming to Portland tonight -- you just may see some of us on all day Thursday. :)

First 360 LAN for the 2130

Chillin' with the circles of light last Friday.















All the effort to get the next-gen and we're playing Halo.

Free's Review: Multiplayer Functionality

Call of Duty 2: We'll start this by saying COD2 has the best singleplayer game of anything I've seen on the 360 yet. It's extremely engaging, realistic and fun to play. The multiplayer functionality however, sucks even worse than Battlefield. There's no way to set up a private game. No way to set up a group match with friends. No pre-game chat. You can't invite a friend until you're in a game, but the games typically don't start until they're full. What? If your friend does happen to join you, they don't follow you to the next game so you're back to square one. Yea, thanks. Once the game starts, it is pretty fun but very simple: run, jump, shoot, melee. You can't drive vehicles and I couldn't figure out how to talk to anybody. Why don't they want us to play together? Just like Battlefield, this is a missed opportunity for greatness. Free's multiplayer score: Mexi-grade with lots of stems and seeds.

Perfect Dark Zero: Much more potential for the clan here. I was able to set up a private game and invite friends to play quite easily using the Guide. Since Termas and I were the only ones playing, I populated the game with AI-controlled bots to fill out the map. We chatted before and during the game. A miracle! And there is an option for choosing weapons. The gameplay was fine, but the colors and graphic styling of the game are more comic-like versus the realism of COD2. No jumping, but the roll is good for evading fire. There's also a cover function for walls but it's very slow to engage and disengage. You can melee, and even use both fists for pure boxing. There are jet packs but we didn't get to use them. Nor did we play an objective game. That said, this game so far is the best option for 2130 interaction. Free's multiplayer score: chest-high and peeling with only a slight trace of onshore wind.

Armleg Scores

Quick update: Just as Armleg was about to drive up north for the weekend, his local Game Crazy called his house and said they had one 360 available because the person who pre-ordered it couldn't afford a second box (they got one at Zero Hour). Needless to say, he now has his very own 360 and is sitting in holiday traffic somewhere stroking it lovingly. Hopefully, he'll give us the full story later and some insight on what this really means to him and his son Jack.

On another note, If anyone has a lead on a hard drive please let me know.

Anyone Want Another Wireless Controller?

Somehow I ended up with one too many. MSRP is fifty bucks. No tax, no shipping, no hassel.

Make an offer!

Termas

Woody & his Pike not 360

Woody found this 36" - 15 lb Northern Pike near his house. Nice work Woody, maybe the 360 will have a fishing game that we could play sometime. Crack a few beers on our boat of choice at any lake or ocean. I'm liking this already.

Launch Day Looked Like a Scene From Omega Man

On Tuesday, GameSpot staffers witnessed even more chaotic scenes at the local Target in Colma, on the peninsula south of San Francisco. There, a lone security guard spent most of the night shooing an increasingly unruly crowd away from the parking lot. The situation nearly spun out of control around 7 a.m., when the guard left his post for five minutes, prompting a mass influx of would-be customers eager to receive vouchers good for a 360.

When he returned, the security guard's attempts to get the 100-plus-person crowd to form a line were rebuffed until the arrival of police and a California National Guardsman around 8 a.m. A trio of veteran GameSpotters witnessed the Guardsman quickly take control of the situation and move to the head of the line--where he promptly turned around and asked for a 360 voucher himself. The Guardsman then promptly fled the scene, voucher in hand, leaving police, Target employees, and a visibly agitated crowd to fend for themselves.

Even more underhanded events were afoot at the Target in the East Bay suburb of Pinole. There, voucher-scalping was rampant in the parking lot prior to the store's opening, with some vouchers selling for as much as $300--not including the price of the 360. More enterprising profiteers purchased units and immediately resold them in the parking lot for as much as $800--over $400 more than the higher-end Xbox console's $399 sticker price. By midday, the console was fetching well over $3,000 on eBay.

How'd You Get Those? Wasn't Easy!

So Timo and I spent the night in front of Toys R Us in Ventura to get our consoles. We took off from Tim's house at about 10 pm to see if there was a line at Target, and sure enough a good 20 people were camped already. So after striking out at WalMart, Best Buy and Fry's, we found a nice small group in front of Toys R Us. We hung out with them from 11:45 pm to 9:00 am this morning. Timo got the last Premium system so I had to get a Core. Let's be clear: For the purpose of launch day, the Core system is a hassel. I had to buy all the accessories from multiple stores and I still don't have a hard drive, which means no backwards compatibility. However, it was still worth it. The system rocks, especially on my new 32" LCD TV. It's nice to see some updates to the gamer cards. Hope you all can get a hold of a 360 soon.
















Our home away from home at approx. 6:30 am.















The "not so" Core system, accessories and phat new TV.













New vs. old: There's just no comparison.

I should be on tonight, if Free doesn't come by and steal it first!

Our Anniversary

Interestingly enough, November 7 came and went without us remembering anything about it. For a bunch of guys, forgetting an anniversary isn't totally out of the norm, but it has now been over 1 year since this silly little game called Halo 2 brought all of us together for our "bowling nights". Bungie celebrates this occasion with an extensive article on Halo History, and reveals some of the benefits of running H2 on the new Xbox 360.

I will have to say, I have NEVER played a game that I was still playing nightly one year later. The game has so much replay-ability and the Live integration is so good, I can't wait for Halo 3 to astound us again next year. Until then, continue to chuck those nades right on into year 2!

Also, another occasion, this is the 100th post on our little clan blog! I think both occasions call for a holiday Lan Party at someone's place with plenty of Egg Nog.

More followup on X360 backward compatibility

One of my favorite techie bloggers, Rory, provides commentary on the Slashdot posting on X360 backward compatibility.

On a side note, I'll be traveling to California for the Turkey Day weekend, so I will be canvasing all of the electronics stores on I-5 from Portland to Modesto for an X360 on the 22nd. I'll get my X360 somewhere -- preorder or not. I'm on a mission from god.

29 no-nos for gamers over age 30

I pulled this list off of a post at Joystiq. I fear that 2130 may be quilty of breaking some of these rules. Make special note of 1, 6 & 9.

Old people with nintendo revolution controllers in handThe ESA says that the average gamer is 30 years old. It’s time that those of us who are 30 or older realize that some of the things we grew up doing as gamers are no longer really appropriate, cool, or kosher given our new demographic bucket. Here, then, is a helpful guide to 28 things a gamer should never do past the age of 30.

1. Participate in LAN parties with minors
2. Quit your job to pursue a pro-gaming career
3. Start a Star Wars themed PC case mod in the living room
4. Ever use the jargon OMG, BBQ and WTF together in the same phrase
5. Pirate games - shouldn’t you have an income by now?
6. Find the idea of teamkilling funny
7. Choose a female avatar so that you can try to upskirt her
8. Refuse to play games that are rated lower than mature
9. Tea-bag a downed opponent in Halo 2
10. Play any game with Princess Toadstool in it
11. Choose a gamer handle including any form of the words “hell,” “killer,” “death,” or ”-inator”
12. Yell “pwnt” in a public virtual space
13. Play a female character in an MMOG in order to troll for “Crying Game” victims
14. Disconnect when losing at Starcraft or any other RTS
15. Ninja loot
16. Get your gaming news from a print publication
17. Replace the letter S with a dollar sign when writing Microsoft, Sony, or PlayStation
18. Live in your parents’ basement to support a gaming habit
19. Break mice in a fit of rage after being served in an FPS game
20. Try to win an argument in a gaming forum
21. Pretend that movies like Doom and Tomb Raider are anything but crap
22. Carry softcore anime porn on your PSP to show the guys at work
23. Hadoken someone as a greeting, complete with hand motions and sound effects
24. Play competitively against anyone under the age of 10
25. Read or write fanfiction
26. Yell or type, “Laggg” when losing an online game
27. Bogart the controller
28. Work at GameStop “just for the discount”
29. Type liek JeffK

2130 to represent at Zero Hour in the Mojave

Check out xbox.com and enter to win tickets to the 360 Zero Hour party in the desert of So Cal. I'm going to win and take one of you in my side car to the desert. I would expect anyone else who wins from the 2130 to side car a clan member too. I really just want that Zero Hour Xbox 360 faceplate and to get dizzy playing all the new games for 24 straight hours while peeing in the 2130 Endurance Apparel so as not to lose my spot.

Don't Cash in Those Vacation Days Just Yet

I just confirmed with my local EB Games that I will not be in the first group of Xbox 360's shipped for the 22nd release date. Free and I reserved ours in early August, and were 48th and 49th in line. Last week, they anticipated 75 consoles as an intitial inventory, but were informed recently that they will only be getting 35. They expect the next inventory to arrive within 2 weeks. Looks like there will not be a 360 LAN party this Thanksgiving. The bastards.

Timo

Happy Halo-ween

Here's a little halloween treat for you guys.

Gamer Cards

To customize your gamer card, go to xbox.com and click on "my xbox." Apparently, they will update themselves once we start playing games on the 360.

Battlefield Tips

Here's a link to a pretty detailed set of game facts and tips for Battlefield. Looks like it was created for the demo so there's nothing about setting up games, etc. Great gameplay tips though.

Update: I just read another post that said there's an update to download that helps the lockup/buzz problem.

Halo 2 is Still King of the Hill

Here's the scoop. Fore those who have read this rant via email, please excuse me, but I wanted to get as much mileage as possible from all these key strokes. The game play in Battlefield 2 did not disappoint me, but the online interface is horrible. Moreover, I am fairly certain that there is no way to set up a private game for just our group. The game play is perfect for having some tight cohesive team play, but there is no ready room before you launch to assign roles for a mission or an easy way to get everyone on the same page once the game has launched. You can hear your teammates when they are close to you, or use the white button to talk to your whole team -- much like H2-- but the game demands a super fast pace to capture objectives that prevents a good attack plan from being made. In the end, once the game starts you feel like you are on your own. The vehicles are great. I played 4 of the many maps. I think there may be as many as 12, with rumors of more downloadable maps in the works. The maps are really good. The Maps are very three dimensional, with great places to snipe, lots of cover, and different terrain. We played on one map that had a large bay and canals, and the patrol boats were super fun. We had four guys in one and made a run around the back of the map fragging lone enemies on the way, and ran the boat up on the beach and took the base in seconds. The Tanks, helicopters and jeeps are well done, as well as the weapons and different individual unit types. In the end, the game has huge potential, but the online play just is not there. I'm guessing that the lack of private games as an option stems from the fact that EA hosts the games on its own servers. I would be much happier to have a 16 player max via peer-to-peer and be able to set up private games, than have the additional 8 players. I am not giving up on the game. There is the ability to make a clan, and there may be a ready room in the clan matches, but cannot feel disappointed about the game. Halo 2 is still the King of the Hill.

Timo

New Xbox Live Endurance Apparel

No more skipping a match to use the restroom...

Battlefield Buildup

Here's one more teaser before Battlefield 2: Modern Combat is available on 10/25 (ships on 10/24 so I'm assuming it'll be available in stores the next day). Dare I say this will be the title that surplants Halo 2 at the top of Xbox Live's top 25?

Got Tokens?

It's starting to look like the Live Arcade feature on the 360 is going to be the sleeper hit of the console, especially for aging gamers like ourselves. And it'll be even more fun if we can play while video chatting -- a feature that's supposedly possible. Joust has already been confirmed as one of the games, but now a huge list of publishers has been released and the potential for more retro classics making their Hi-Def return on 360 is very good. One of my favorite old-school video games was Star Castle. What former token-eater would you like to play on Live Arcade?

Hardware Check

Major Nelson posted a link to a podcast that Geek Speak Radio hosted with Jim Barber, the cat that runs the Xbox Live Hardware Certification Program. It is very interesting, and lists some tools for checking our your existing network, and how it gets along with Live. He also goes on to describe some new Wireless technology on the horizon.

I encourage everyone to check into your network, so we can get rid of as much lag as possible.

Timo

Live 360

Looks there are some very nice improvements to the way Live is going to function with the coming of the 360. To check out the video, start here and then click on the link in the upper-right corner labled "Feature: Xbox 360 Close-Up Episode 2." By the way, EB Games is now sold out of their pre-order 360 bundles. Do you think they'll go for a premium on Ebay?

STYLE

Before you get your Xbox-360 and REALLY have no life - check out the following personal style advice site.

http://dodoempire.com/rubberburner/

Ask yourself this - Do you feel that a great personal appearance (style) and a huge personal interestin heavy-duty motors (engines) seem like a contradiction? Well, good news! It isn't!

Make sure to watch the Tiger (Master Gold Edition) video repeatedly...

You and your honeys can thank me later...

Thanksgiving Doesn't Stand a Chance

Two days before T-day. I'm hoping most, if not all of the Clan will be online for what could be an amazing holiday weekend of gaming. Lets pick a new 360 title or two and hunker down for some serious online action. Be sure to caffinate while you wolf down that Turkey. We don't want that triptophane to cut into your online presence.

See you Cluckers online!

More 360 Details

Here's a summary of the announcements at the Microsoft pre-show press conference. There should be a lot more details tomorrow after their official Tokyo Game Show presentation.

T-67 Days and Counting

As published on every other website around the world, the X360 North American launch is November 22. :)

360 Launch Date Announced

Let the countdown begin: North America - Tuesday, November 22, 2005

As you can see, I was able to sneak inside one of the factories and check out all of our boxes being made. This guy was nice enough to let me burn each of our names on them with a laser beam. So, what game will we be getting with this puppy?

How to Increase Your Ranking and Keep It

I decided to check these guys out, after Major Nelson said that he co-hosted their podcast. They are not nearly as polished or concise as Major Nelson's podcast, but over the 1+ hours of mostly nonsense, they did throw out some good tips. Such as throwing a grenade at the top of a doorway when someone is following you, and describing the location of a vulnerable spot on the ghost that will cause it to explode with one BR burst or one shot from the sniper rifle. They also when on at length about the pros and cons of close combat with the sword vs. shotgun. If you need something to listen to while you work, you might enjoy it.

Greetings from Zanzibar

Pics from the Labor Day Longboard LANfest are slowly starting to creep in. Here's one taken on the beach at Zanzibar (aka La Conchita). From L to R we have BraindeadWolf, Scott (Armleg's friend from the OC), Tenlin, Free420, ARRSTDVLPMNT, Timo9000, Armleg and SleepyCoyote. And that's not a modified Ghost in the background, it's Timo's outrigger canoe.

We had beautiful weather and some fun waves this day. Turns out Armleg's children are quite the anglers. His son Jack caught a nice corbina and his daughter Ellie landed a baby perch. What a great dad. But later that night, the real Armleg showed himself.

Look for more photos from the rest of the day coming soon.

Carney Holes: Do They Smell Like Cabbage?

I was browsing Bungie.net recently and came across the term Carney Holes. Carney Holes are not homes for circus folk -- nomads, you know, smell like cabbage, small hands -- they're spots on the map where a player can have a distinct advantage. Clicking on the link brought me to the Halo version of Wikipedia, called Halowiki, something I was vaguely aware existed but never really checked out. It's got a wealth of information, including tips, and is a must-read for anyone wanting to improve their skills and knowledge of Halo.
