I swear Xbox Live is the worst online community I've ever come across - not the network itself but the people.

That ain't no shit.

Bots are better than fucking Xbox Live players because they don't shoot the goddamn cars nearly as much and they don't bolt and run for the safehouse because they're not fucking morons who have a complete and utter lack of understanding of anything whatsoever that might possibly constitute a fundamental part of the game design.

That's why I always play with at least one friend, and we vote to kick anyone who joins our team. 2v1 votes always pass, so we never have to put up with bullshit.

Yup, I've seen people on Xbox live run right past a survivor who needs help, it's the worst.

I really wish Rock Band 3 would come out already. It's menu's and options are starting to become outdated with each new GH disk coming out.

Did you do the export thing? Where you combine the songs from each game? That's one thing made me want Rock Band in the first place, having all the DLC in one game.

That sucks. Probably no way to upgrade my card either I imagine. So much for getting back into pc gaming.

Fret not, you'll still be able to play smaller games like Plants vs Zombies and Samorost 2 and old games like those from GOG.com.

Quake Live is worth a shot too, being free and all and check out this feature, written for netbooks but they all should work on your laptop.

I'm considering getting a low spec laptop or a netbook so I can play smaller/old games on the move myself.

That's pretty much all I've been playing on it. Though I am really interested in Company of Heroes as well as Dawn of War 2.

I own both of those and haven't played them - Steam's sale give you ipod syndrome.

I haven't even finished Secret of Monkey Island yet and already I'm eyeballing KOTOR and Beyond Good & Evil as games I've never touched.
