    So I've decided to make an NBR thread for gamers to connect and play games with eachother. Post the multiplayer games you play as well as your usernames/IDs, and communication software IDs. (skype, vent, etc.)

    Games I have so far: Minecraft, Counter Strike: Source, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, League of Legends, Team Fortress 2, and Garry's Mod.

    Games I plan on getting: Homefront, Crysis, BF: BC2, BF3, MW3, Black ops, COD4, L4D series, HALO series, NFS series, Burnout series, WoW, GTA series (multiplayer mod), and a bunch more. I play pretty much all games that are well made and fun.

    Minecraft: StaticThunder, NBR MP server (thread in this forum).
    Steam: ChaoticAnarch
    Skype: ChaoticAnarch
    League of Legends: StaticThunder

    I usually work so I play around 9pm-3am PST. On my days off I'll be on anytime during the day.

    Add me on everything you play/have, and post your own. See ya!

    Easy way:

    Join Steam/Xfire, add other members here from NBR. When other members see you playing a game and they want to play, click 'join game'.

    Much easier.

    Of course it is, their is a thread here with a number of people and their steam/xfire info/id's.

    Add the people you want. When you are playing or they are, join or ask them to join your game.

    It isn't exactly rocket science here.

    I dont recommend getting HomeFront for PC, its hacker infested. D;
    But if you ever grab Section 8: Prejudice for PC, add me as a friend on Xbox Live.
    We can probably do some matches, either in MP or coop.

    My Steam: Dont laught but i think i gotta use my super old account name, "homieman".
    Origin: DEagleson
    Xbox Live: DEagleson

    Minecraft: deagleson
    Raptr: DEagleson
    Skype: sgt.deagleson

    I recommend Raptr, its enables ingame chat (Multiple IMs) and tracks game time.

    Battle.net: LaFleur

    I don't recommend getting COD4, Blops, AND MW3. Kinda overkill on the COD there. I also don't recommend BC2 and BF3 this close to release.

    Unless you're buying for the story lines... Then I suggest COD4 and MoH 2010.

    Also, I recommend checking out some of the Indie games, the developers put a lot of love into them, and they are fantastic.

    I still have never played terraria, even though I own it. I'm kinda busy lately, and more so now that college is starting up again
