But first-person shooters... those are memories that last a lifetime.<BR/><BR/><STRONG>Paulius</STRONG>: I gripe, but the majority of Halo players probably aren't all tea-baggin, mouthbreathing, racism-spouting troglodytes. Still, it just takes one encounter with them in a night to sour the evening. Common wisdom is that the Social playlists are where you'll find less asshatery, which may be true, but you also find the guys who sing or won't shut up for two seconds, the guys who kill you if you don't let their butt-buddy get on the gun of the warthog, and the kids asking to "play for achievements". So, it's a crapshoot. Maybe I'll just play in charity tournaments from now on--I lose badly, but the people seem nice.<BR/><BR/><STRONG>Angela [FD]</STRONG>: Music games are not only great "couples" games, but also great "couch multiplayer" games. Jamming out with your significant other or just your best bud are equally rewarding experiences. Just don't forget which one you kiss when you 5 star that song.Katohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228307619229587737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10824187.post-18954096347101341202009-03-06T00:14:00.000-05:002009-03-06T00:14:00.000-05:00As I read these Blog Banter posts, a lot of people are saying that music games are a great way to have fun as a couple. My boyfriend and I have never tried to play Guitar Hero or Rock Band together but maybe we should try!Angela [Feralis Dawn]http://saveinprogress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10824187.post-82935671751216294332009-03-03T09:49:00.000-05:002009-03-03T09:49:00.000-05:00That's why I've almost completely stopped playing Halo 3. It seems that about 80% of the people you'll meet while playing consider talking trash /teabagging/generally acting like a gigantic ass to be the MAIN part of the game.<BR/><BR/>If I play Halo at all, it's with my headset unplugged and everyone set to mute...which makes any kind of tactical play completely impossible.<BR/><BR/>It's also the reason I've not even bothered trying to introduce Sunny to the online FPS genre, despite how much she used to love Goldeneye.Pauliushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01709405037488442948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10824187.post-3425282454173061752009-03-01T14:58:00.000-05:002009-03-01T14:58:00.000-05:00Just FYI I don't want flowers, candy, chocolate, or especially a fuzzy stuffed animal. I want the latest first person/third person shooter. duh.Cdawgowndnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10824187.post-38971097362876142792009-03-01T06:44:00.000-05:002009-03-01T06:44:00.000-05:00I <I>loathe</I> teabaggers.Hojihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07515912009905837179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10824187.post-53958286310064155432009-02-28T17:16:00.000-05:002009-02-28T17:16:00.000-05:00The image accompanying this post originally spotted at <A HREF="http://halo3screenshots.com/2009/02/14/corpse-heart/" REL="nofollow">I Love Halo 3 Screenshots</A>.Katohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228307619229587737noreply@blogger.com
