Gears of War
Okay, I'm ready. The windows are closed, the phone is off. I have enough food and party favors to last for a solid 72 hours or so. Stocked up with water. I'm showered and clean (for now).
Have my copy of Gears of War, and am properly boxed into my apartment and plan to give this fucker a solid run through. Will it live up to the hype? Will I set foot outside before the weekend? How will I smell?
So many questions.
If you want to play some multiplayer, my xbox live name is "steveisaacs".

I'd say "it's too bad I don't have an xbox so we can play," but it wouldn't be so fun for me since you'd royally kick my ass. I stick to the cheesy racing games for a reason. Have fun, though!

Damn you even had a kind aura back then. Game on and take a pee break now and then and just light a candle for the smell :-)

Steve, Honey!
"You're the same age as my brother. He has just bought himself a remote controlled LEGO car....:o)
How is your cough? When game-time is over, you've had a shower and go out, just go to the first Pharmacy and ask for Ribwort Plantain or Narrowleaf Plantain (I think that's how it's called in English), in Latin it's Plantago lanceolata for sure. Here - on the other side of the Earth - it can be bought both as syrup and tee. IT's the best against cough! Forget about antibiotics, especially if you don't visit a doctor! Have a nice game and get well soon!"
Love, Liza

Let me know how that smelling thing works out.
I hit the XBox Live last night and umm, now I'm hooked. Let me know if Gears Of War is all it's cracked up to be so that I can get me a copy, too.
Enjoy! And kill all kinds of bitches!

I fall on and off the gaming wagon (currently off), but I've always wanted an Xbox so I could play Kung Fu Chaos. That game rules. I'm so far out of the loop. My newest system is a PS2 that my ex bought me like three years ago.

Let us know how it turns out! Hopefully you won't stink to bad before it's all over with! ;o)

Why does you weekend remind me of the "towelie" episode of South Park?
Don't let the government steal your xbox!

Omg I so wish I had an Xbox right now. Even though I hate them cause the buttons on the controller are really confusing, so I give up after a while. I only have a PS2(much more simpler). Wow i'd love to do what ur doing sometime. That would be mad! Anyway have fun. And be sure to tell us what happened.
Love, AnnaBanana

I was going to wait for Bullet Witch for my first FPS on the 360, but I might have to pickup Gears of War if I can get a chance to play with ya. I saw some gameplay videos, and it does look amazing..
i've been playing Dead Rising and Oblivion mostly. Once I signup with Live next month, i'm so there.. rock on..
p.s. She Won't Last has been blowing my mind lately.. love that song.. love your words man!
