I've had a stable connection, granted I haven't played a whole lot this week. Two of my friends who I play with seem to have semi-frequent issues, they're both on the same network, different consoles at their house.
They're going live with some "events" this weekend. To me these sound just like the challenges from Halo: Reach. XP Bonuses and things like that to play certain things or play the game in a certain way.
I was at home, I had gotten my drivers license 8 days earlier and decided to capitalize a bit on my new found freedom and not go to school that day. I was at my grandmothers with my dog helping her out and my dad and asked me to put on the news because he heard something about a plane and the World Trade Center and as soon as I turned it on the second plane hit.
I had absolutely no idea what I was watching or the gravity of the situation. Once the news of the plane crashing into the Pentagon came out is when panic set in. My aunt, the only daughter of the grandmother I was with works at the Fed in DC and when my grandmother heard about that she was borderline hysterical and I tried calling ym aunt only to have all circuts be busy for I don't know how long.
I had a part-time job at a local store working in the hardware department, we sold little American flags there and that's all anyone came in for that night, nothing else. One thing I remember really clearly is listening to the radio on my drive home. Every station had gone commercial free and the hosts seemed to be working around the clock trying to vocalize what had happened.
@zolroyce: It's honestly growing on me. I wish I stuck with the change earlier, for whatever reason the first few minutes after switching make reading a little disorienting prompting my switching back.
I find myself gaming alone because my work schedule almost never coincides with any of my friends. I don't mind doing matchmaking with randoms or working my way through campaigns solo. Online communities can often provide some good co-op partners if you need them. GB's community is usually pretty active with that type of thing. If you're planning on playing Destiny join Lincoln Force, the GB Destiny Clan.
Don't worry about your youth fading, games don't have age limits for enjoyment. Just have fun and go with it, duder.
Holy Moly, Mojang is valued at $2 Billion. I wonder what, if any effect this would have on the PS ports of Minecraft. They must really just want to go all-in with Minecraft.
