  1. A-Thon X A Dream fulfilled

    Player Chronicle -- Posted on Jul 23 2009

    If you read my Bio you know that i've wanted to play an online game for some time. I got my Wii online but i don't have any multiplayer games, plus Nintendo Club is giving me problems (which is a whole other chronicle) But over the Holidays i went to visit my folks, and while i was at my brothers house i played my first ever online game. It was Halo 3, now, i've played all the Halos and i love'em (in fact i just purchased an original xbox so i can play Halo 1 and 2) And the warning rings true, experience may change during online play... it was Awesome! I got hooked. I'd wake up, go to the living room and turn on Halo before i even ate breakfast. one day i woke up, turned on Halo, stopped long enough to watch Scrooge (the musical version) then went right back to Halo and then went to sleep for the night. My brother who's a Halo fanatic and a microsoft fanboy said that i may have a problem. LOL Which i probrably do. I also made a character on his account for World of Warcraft. I didn't have time to get a feel for it over there so i got the Trial Version once i got home and went off the deep end here too. I'm definetly getting this game. I don't know what it is about being online, maybe its the community or the fact that it feels more free and less boxed in, or the fact that all your enemies and allies are actual people. Either way, its great. My only gripe is that the horror stories i've heard about xbox live are not exaggerated. Some of these kids need to be made to EAT a bar of soap, but guess what, MUTE! LOL My exposure to online gaming was definetly the beginning of a shameful downward spiral that will no doubt result in a loved one stumbling upon my crusty and emaciated body slumped over on my keyboard/controller. BTW, i go by A-Thon X on both WoW and XBox live, look me up.
