Yeah, I know. I was having internet issues last night...and I was drunk. That was fun though.

Picked up Battlefield 2 last night...I plan on playing tonight.

JoD...it's time to snipe.

Word! You're not going to see me until tomorrow night, I need to finish taxes first.

Go start leveling your sniper up, you'll want the nicer scope and guns.

I'm digging this game...I'll probably be on tonight

Nice, I'll be a little toasted from end of taxes office party, but I'll probably play tonight too.

I'll be a little toasted too...I don't know how to join a squad, but we should get plenty drunk and headshot ourselves.

so is this like MW2 multiplayer?

If so, how does it compare?

Hell yea, I was toasty too...I was a huge SOCOM fan (looking forward to SOCOM 4)...but this was a ton of fun. I was cracking up that you would spawn behind me as a medic and drop medkits (I think you gave me 50 over the course of the night)...I still don't know how to pick them up.

The controls are great, the graphics are impressive, the destructible environment is awesome, and the sniping is fun.

I just need to lean the maps better.

What was the verdict on Dragon Age? I've had this gift card since Christmas and need to burn it.

Is it really, really long? FO3 was one of the best games I've ever played, but man what a comittment. I still need to finish all that.

I thought it was pretty long if you do all the missions and side-missions (80+ hours). Plus, you can choose who you want to play with at the beginning (elf, dwarf, human, ...) and the first few hours of gameplay are different for each roll. I think you'll really dig it TM, the decisions you have to make aren't really clear cut right/wrong...and sometimes those decisions lead to different storylines and missions...but the overall main storyline stays the same.

There is a lot of material in this game, and it will make you rethink every decision that you made along the way.

Oh boy, that'll drive me nuts. I'm gonna go get it @ dinner break. I'm getting burnt of FPS games.
