Brainboy said:Shake and I already take part in Monday games of Halo with people from Eurogamer, although the numbers have been rather low lately.
But I would definitely say that we should arrange some Euro games once the beta is here.
I've been extremely busy lately, which is why I've yet to partake in any customs =(
For the Beta, I have no classes every other Tuesday, but of course Tuesday 4th I'll have 8h... Thursday 6th I'll be available all afternoon, and then non-stop from Friday evening to Sunday night

I would definitely play in EuroHaloGAF games, as the only reason I don't play customs currently is the time. (Also, they're on a Saturday night?! Don't you people drink?! etc.)
I gave up videogames for Lent, though, so it'll be a little while yet before I could play.

So I haven't played serious Halo 3 in about a year and a half but the beta video has me tingling!!
I was wondering what type of tv you guys play on, for me HD and Halo 3 multiplayer simply do NOT mix well. Its a cut above Halo 3 for sure but there is still definitely aiming and video lag issues. What TV do you think I should invest in for Reach? Maybe a monitor you guys could recommend. I just want something that is responsive as an SD tv. I played on my friend's monitor and I was pleasantly impressed..

I game on PC monitors exclusively, I'm using a 21.5" Samsung screen right now. http://www.samsung.com/hk_en/consum...s/LS22EFVKUV/XK/index.idx?pagetype=prd_detail No sound, but I use my Astros anyways.

You guys do know we have Euro Customs every Saturday, right?
Not in the last few weeks though, since no one shows up
When we did have Euro Customs, I'd have a lot more fun because we'd just try weird/comical maps instead of trying to play competitively
Regular Customs are awesome, don't get me wrong. But going to bed at 6:30 am is kinda exhausting

Ya I'm gonna be living in student housing next year...
That looks pretty nice, compact and portable. I already have a small HDTV for my room so should go with this
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00213QXFA/ref=nosim/6580890-20
or this
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0019HGTLC/ref=nosim/6580890-20
and why are crt tvs still so expensive I thought they'd be like $50 max for a 20 inch.

Slight derail incoming:
Going through all the montage clips right now (slightly scary looking at the number) and there's a few Gamrtags I don't recognise. Hoping the owners see this post so I can put your GAF name with your clip. Unless I'm stupid and the GT is your GAF name, in which case I've forgotten and apologize in advance. So here goes:
Complexxxxxx
I be BuTTerZ

Add another vote for Euro customs to be back on!
Regular customs just start waaay too late for me, I dont mind staying up till like 3, but that seems like the time it takes for regular customs to just get going :lol Also sucks a bit that I cant really talk too late.
Customs yesterday where a lot of fun though, but god those Atlas maps were awful!

Hopefully I'll be on form. I started getting tired last night and it started to show. I'll no doubt make some bad jokes along the way bt it should be fun.

I play on a 22inch Acer Monitor that I run through the MS VGA cable. It supports 1680X1050 but I have it running at a lower resolution because of my stream. Tube TV's are always great to play Halo on. I used to play on a 23inch tube and it was fantastic.
Also Bladed, you better dominate in this Forgehub Humpday match. You're representing the MLG crowd over here at HaloGAF. Make us proud, son. *a single tear*

I agree with him. That gun does look like the Covenant beam weapon. There aren't any needles protruding from that gun image.Justinian said:

None of those names are on GAF. They might be somebodies alt. Not everyone on GAF uses their GT as their username. Those are the Gamertags the clips were captured from though. If nobody owns up to them they might get left out.

Customs were fun last night. They kind of ended too late though.
After customs Bagel, Juices, and I played some Team Mythic. Played 4 games... 3 were one bomb on Longshore. The fuck?

I use the same model with TV cable, a Mac Mini, and my 360 plugged in (+Hauppauge HD PVR soon), then use the controller to switch between the 3 inputs.

For the team: I'm heading out now and won't be back until 8ish GMT. I'll be back by then anyway.
I had an ancient Sony tv that I used to always play on. So happy with the Panasonic 32" HDTV I got for my birthday.

I don't recognize any of those gamertags, from the Halo 3 GAF Friends List or the Firefight friends list nor have I seen them in any of the custom games. I don't think they're a part of GAF. Just leave them out if nobody owns up to it.BladedExpert said:

Interesting.... 250. Hmm. Shall check how money is after a few upcoming events.
Need a TV with HDMI in for my PS3, sick of 360-onlyness at college.

I don't know what it was but I was in a really bad mood when we started and those maps really weren't helping. The makers could not have taken even one minute to think about how the maps would play. At least it led to a few laughs.
FFA snipes on whiteout - so good. Apart from everyone spawning at elbow while Merguson was in BR 1.
Also, if I'm needed as a sub I don't know if I'll be available to help out. My knuckles have all ceased up at the moment so wielding a controller might be out of the picture. I'll see how my hands fare when the time comes. =/
