Mein schwarze! Halo 1 was my favorite split screen FPS, and my friends spent hours using that inexplicably scoped pistol. I hit it big with CoD during World at War and MW2, and was in a top 100 clan for a bit. I used LMGs mostly, so you were probably the guy I called a mother fucker when I got blasted while mounting up in a window.

I tried the Modern Warfare MP trial since they released it to the Warzone crew. If you're looking to feel any sense of nostalgia, don't bother. Apparently the MP7 is the only gun you're allowed to use, because the meta has already crystallized around that gun. I don't know why I expected a brief glimpse back to the glory days, but I got exactly what I stupidly deserved.

I don't even bother with the xbox anymore. I want to, but I drive and have kids so I don't have the time or energy.

I was around 12-13 when halo came out. That pistol caused arguments. I would play with my adult brother-in-law and his friends. He would have Lan parties and what not. I remember, as a preteen mind you, having grown men yelling at me that I must be cheating or screen watching or something. It got to the point that I was put on my own TV in my own room to play them. After that, I remember my brother-in-law dieing laughing because his friend, a grown ass man, got so angry he just packed up his xbox and left.

Sorry. This is just bringing back memories.

No worries, fren. Glad you are only a couple years older than me, and have kids that take your mind off the shitshow that is online gaming. Working on that side of the equation myself.

I never got "pack up and leave" angry with my friends. I had a Mario Golf Gamecube tourney in my basement once, some of the most non-alcoholic fun that anybody below the legal age could have asked for. I think I got smoked the first round, but I just let it carry on.

I'm just glad I could reminisce briefly with another person. You keep doing you, because I couldn't ever head glitch or peek advantage what you have going for you.
