There's been something on my mind for quite some time. Here in Lahore we have a lot of gaming meetups but most often than not they've been phadda meetups. Street Fighter, Tekken, it's like these people know nothing else. We'd always plan a Halo meetup, a COD meetup but it'd never come to fruition. I've finally decided to take the initiative and make this thread.

The game of choice will be Halo Reach (This is still a WIP as it's the people that'll decide in the end though I really want to just play Halo, Black Ops is also a viable option)

The venue will be Project X9 in Model Town - alternately Eclectic Vibrations in DHA but I'd prefer the other venue

We could even make it a fortnightly thing if it picks up.

So what do you guys think? If I get enough favourable responses we can try it out this Sunday. If there's no response, this thread shall die in obscurity.
I only need serious people to reply, no "I'll be there most definitely" and then no where to be seen on the day in question.
Interested people pm me cell no.

I literally fumbled with the mouse to click this thread as quickly as possible when i saw "The Halo: Reach meetup thread" written on the latest threads in front of the chitchat section.

I opened the thread, only to find out that the title goes on further...

....I cried inside :'(

No LAN on KZ3 and both locales only have 360s. Anyways I love Halo, always have, never got to play Reach as much as I'd have liked so I thought why not.

That is if it succeeds, I'm not expecting much right now but I hope in a week or two there are some people that get interested in the idea. It would be amazing if something were to happen by Sunday but highly unlikely

when do we do this?
Make it a Sunday.

And Omy, make a list of people who have confirmed they will come. They only have a limited number of X360s at EV. Plus we might have to book the whole place beforehand.

Are there really no people on these forums that play Halo? How is that even possible?!
Anyways had our first session at a friends place, played some 2V2. The game is still as fun as I remembered.
The regulars were there but I want some new people to join in too dammit, I want some 8v8 mayhem!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
