You're right. I'm just jealous of people who can afford to buy new games. I guess I'll just have to dine on the foetid scraps I currently have.

It's up to you - you don't need them for Halo night though. We'd only play on the new maps if everyone had the map pack and there were no objections.

Which reminds me - the map pack is pretty good. There are three new maps on it, a small one, a medium one and a large one. The small and medium ones are excellent fun, but I don't think much of the large one. Except the large one is also set up for the Invasion gametype, which is when it's actually really fun. For regular team deathmatch and stuff, it's ruined by the vehicles you can find in it, which allow the team who gets to them first to completely dominate the map throughout. I think it needs tweaking from that aspect. In Invasion though, it's better than the Invasion maps we have already.

I just bought Reach, and would be keen for some multiplayer fun. If anyone sees me online and fancies a game, send an invite. I'll try and be around for planned Halo games, but the timing could be tricky for me.

I have ordered Halo: Reachtime. Tuesday night is not the best for me, what with it being the designated clean-the-flat-then-eat-pizza-and-watch-x-files-or-house night around here, but I might possibly be able to join a bit later in the evening. Once I have the game.

Possibly about 9.30 now I'm afraid. Editing, food, then more editing.

Promise I'll pop on for half hour though!

Okay coolio! I'm on now by the way but it looks as though nobody else is! Fucking Jamie Oliver. I had a nightmare with a split bin bag and rubbish all over the kitchen floor as well. A proud night in my culinary career.

Good game guys, cheers for coming! We had an even four so we got to try out some matchmaking. Hopefully more people will fancy a game next week though.

Also, there's a new playlist full of community made maps, which is fun. We tried a few and they seemed half decent. Who needs map packs?

Yeah I should be on - but today and tomorrow we're having a completely new boiler fitted, so I might be staying over at the girlfriend's so I can utilise her showering facilities in the morning, so I might have to leave early! Having said that, I'm not sure if we're actually going to be with or without hot water for the night yet.

Amazon.co.uk haven't even shipped my game yet, it could be weeks before I have it. :'(

EDIT: Actually, the order was held up by another item. I cancelled that particular item resulting in instant dispatch, which means I should have the game before next week. Hurrah!

I've flicked the immersion heater on (which we never use), so hopefully that'll work.

Usually we play with randomers until everyone turns up. Just 2 people playing on a map in a private game can be quite hard. You really need 4 people to make it work.

The lag was quite bad tonight so I gave up and played on the Amiga instead. I could barely hear you talking. Half the time you sounded like a fax machine!
