yea I play source sometimes it's not as good as the old ones they made the game require less skill but I can show you how to play if you'd like. Counter-strike source is ten times better than SOF2 :P. I play that with coworkers sometimes too, puria. We usually play day of defeat (ww2 game).

Byrnie, I used to use "Roger Wilco" as a chat program. It works great and is free and its always good to talk ish on.

Honestly I never got into Half-Life, Counter Strike, Doom cause it really gives me bad migraines. Maybe its all the colors and ish. Even starcraft takes a toll on me but I love that game. A buddy of mine has the same problem but he wears sunglasses when he plays and thought I'd do that too because my eyes dry up and I dont blink?

Funny is that I can play Madden on my widescreen all day - maybe its my big flatscreen monitor and me sitting close thats the problem...

Anytime you boys wanna play Starcraft hit me up! Its $5 at your local EB Games and still 100000 games online every night. Crazy.

why not pick up warcraft 3 and get the expansion and we can play that? I don't want to play a game like starcraft that hurts my eyes, the graphics are too old for me.

I actually have Warcraft 3 already. Just never got into it as much. I was a big Warcraft 1 and 2 player and thougth 3 just took it to a whole new level of things that just weren't necessary. And that stupid Upkeep on Warcraft 3 drives me nuts.

As for me, I still think Starcraft looks great. It functions perfectly and units handle the way they are supposed to. The example I always give is there's gotta be a reason Blizzard never came out with another version of Starcraft. Even almost 10 years later, there are newbies that still go out and play the game. You'll be surprised how many newbs you'll face on Battle.Net. That to me is pretty impressive on a game that can last that long - it must be doing something right!

Pratik, yea it's still one of the most popular games I believe. I don't like warcraft 3 the regular game so I play this custom map in which you just control heros and buy items and build them up and stuff. It's really fun believe it or not and there's still a ton of strategy in it.

Puria I have Generals, great game just it crashes on you sporatically me and my buddies from college would play all the time before we'd go out.

Anybody that gets there first or early try and reserve a spot outside! Today would be a good day to chill outside. I should be there by 5:30.
