The Official XBox Live Gaming Schedule Pt. III

This is Pt. III of our Xbox Live schedule, I assume the first one got too long. Please remeber to check back to this page for future updates and a general feel for what will be the game to play on any given day.

Part II, here

The Schedule as it stands is as follows.......



No set schedule presently


It seems this thread has turned into a kind of gathering place to garner interest on each particular night. Which is probably the best thing since there are so many games out currently.

Start Times are 7-8 P.M. EST to whenever people stop playing.

XBL Gamertag list by Golucky http://forum.dvdtalk.com/showthread.php?t=425666

Use the gamertag list to send friend invites if people don't have their gamertags in their sigs. Make sure to let people know that you are from DVDtalk when sending friend request.

If anyone has suggestions for changes to the schedule, please post them here, also we can discuss the prior nights events here and that sort of thing. As a game lacks in popularity and new games come along I will change this list accordingly, so let me know when you all think a certain night is no longer necessary for a specific game and we will replace it with more popular title. If there is a title that everyone thinks we don't get to play enough maybe we can even dedicate a second night to it.

Also if anyone has Ideas for events and things that we could have that would be cool.

True. I was saying last night COD3 and Gears are both quite different and worthy of equal and separate gametime.

Looks like there's been a change in management. Definitely add GOW in there somewhere. I'll play poker and or uno anytime as well.

I'm gonna say(again) we need a Gears of War Day,and is there gonna be a game today/tonight/Friday/tomorrow(I say this because its after 2:00 am here)?

Oh and can someone that has beaten GOW go through it with me? I suck on story mode That way Both I & whoever goes through with me can get gamerscore points(Me-Beating Acts,Whoever-The "Dom...." points) Mostly because if I don't find someone I will never be able to beat the game I have tried going in with random people and they are ASSHOLES!)

Whoever might want to help me,post here or send me a Message on LIVE.

I'm only on Act 1 (near the end though, I think), but I'm eager to try out co-op. If you see me on Live playing Gears and there aren't any MP games going, send me an invite. That goes for anyone else here that wants to play some co-op.

I wanted to get it back up and to the top as the other one was closed, and no one had gotten to it yet.

I'm sure Martin won't mind that I posted it.

Besides, I was partly responsible, with others as well, for the schedule concept in the first place.

It wasn't solely Martin's brainchild.

But he did do a good job of the implementation.

How about Tuesdays and Thursdays on the Schedule for GOW?

Monday and Friday for COD3?

Sounds good to me Canis, although Gears i don't think is my cup of tea but when they get CoD3 working better for ranked matches i'll be in those when others aren't on.... must get the medic achievement

Sorry about last night TNA and I think Ex Prime. I tried to join you guys when you sent me invites for GOW but I couldn't join for some reason. We'll meet up soon though because GOW kicks ass online.

Oh ok, that's cool. Yeah I had just got in on a GOW match when the invites came in so I pulled out but I guess not in time.

Great matches last night West, Jason, Ruben & Xtreme. That was my first experience in MP and wow, definitely lives up to the hype. Good stuff. Seemed like we were pretty closely matched also, worked out rather well.

You guys had matches? Thanks for telling me!

Anyway, who here is excited about Emergence Day? I know I won't be playing all 24 hours tomorrow, but I bet I'll be playing a lot. At least to get a shot at those hourly prizes.

Oh and Jason, I'm still up for co-op in GOW tonight if you are. I would have been on earlier but my entire building was o ut of power the whole day and they just fixed it five minutes ago.

If anyone needs some help with GoW send me an invite. I'm currently on Act 3 on Hardcore, so I don't mind helping anyone else out.

Of course not man, we had some great games too. I just wish I didn't suck so much when I play with you guys. It's a little embarrassing because you all are so much better then me right now. Although we did do pretty well on that noisy ass train map when I used that turret to distract those guys while you snuck up from behind and snuffed them out. That was sweet and must have pissed them off.

Sucks that whenever we play, we can't seem to get a full room. I guess we play too late for some folks. Then again, if I try to play earlier, most people seem to prefer COD3 anyways.

Hey guys, thanks for inviting me in tonight. Was my headset coming through? I couldn't tell if you guys could hear me. Count me in for any GoW multiplayer matches you guys have if you see me on Xbox live.

Nope, I wasn't hearing anything you were saying.

It was fun to actually play in a room that consistently had 8 people.
