    Agreed, I dont think ranking really means much, I generally dont have the time between college and other work to play online as much as I would like to, I think the highest I got was a 30 on lone wolves, my friends would have far too much time on their hands and therefore would be a lot higher than me, and we do play a fair bit of LAN games aswell when we get the time....

    Yh i know , ive won a load of gow , cod4 and mw2 lans in Ireland as well . Planning on completing the big three and winning in Halo as well . Reckon this team will win and i will be disappointed with anything less . Hopefully we can get a nice easy round 1 so we can warm up on the game.

    Im on now if anyone wants to game...

    Can I ask where this launch party will take place?
    Would love to be present to feel some of the buzz, or is it invite only?

    Searching online so far has only got me 'Dublin, Ireland'

    Random gametypes will be the death of me


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    Yea, it's invite only I'm afraid. I'll do my best to update this thread from the event with results, not sure if live broadcast is allowed from it or not.


  • Registered Users Posts: 671 ✭✭✭scar 101

    One hour till we meet up, Dav and I will try to keep y'all informed as to how the team is doing through the night...

    DeV.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    Teams are here, rules have been explained, we now meet the celebs.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    games start at 8.30. plenty of serious contenders here, it wont be a walk in the parl!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    Our team were quite convincing in their warm-up with a 2:1 score count. They seem confident :)

    Having spoken with Steven and Jamie on the celebs team, they're not so happy at being the finale having seen the competition...

    looks like ours will be the last of the first games versus techtv101 , ironically! i am going out on a limb and predicting a finale of us versus shamrock kings!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    First game is about halfway through and Shamrock Kings are pretty much running the show :) Even the non gamers in the audience can see the smack down being delivered.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    Second game is done and the winners are the Pub Crawlers who had a pretty convincing win and never looked like there was any doubt.

    Idris has just been talking smack to fire up the crowd :)
    Next up is Extreme Gaming vs Team Boom.

    It'll be TechTV101 vs Boards.ie after that in the final Slayer match.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    second game the winning team brought a secret weapon of Drunk Guy who apparently has never seen someone frag in halo. Pub Crawlers won so we will be seeinh (and hearing) more from them and their mascot. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    We're off and have a 15-2 lead after 3 mins :)


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    boards in the house! (mostly shooting other people in the house!)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    76-20 to Boards.ie, brutalising the lads from TechTV101.

    Second round begins soon with Shamrock Kings against Pub Callers in King of the Hill.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,840 ✭✭✭Dav


    2 mins remain, Shamrock Kings are once again dominant. We're seeing a lot of the new armour special abilities of the game coming into play. The hill is stationary, so it's *very* busy in that small room :)

    As I type it ends, 216 to 117, Kings take it.

    Boom vs Boards begins...
