Does anyone else think it would be really fun if we had like one night a week where we would all play some steam game together or something?
Cause I do.
If anyone is interested, let's make this happen.

Giant Bomb Steam game nights?
" I'd be down. What's the game? Should be an indie-game if possible. "Indie games + multiplayer = Does not compute.
Well everyone in existence owns The Orange Box so TF2 should work." @TheMustacheHero: I dunno... I guess Plain Sight or Altitude may work. I don't have either of those, though. I'm just thinking indie because they're cheap. "
" @JJOR64 said:I remember those, yeah some random user hosts his own server and we get together on that on a random night. Unless someone can provide a regular BG server, I would so down for that." Didn't there used to be TF2 nights when this site launched? "We've had a few TF2 nights in the past, but I don't think they were ever a regular thing. "
" @Dipstick: Well that would be sweet. If we start to get more people interested we can look in to getting a bigger server. So yeah, we'll play TF2. That's pretty much what I had in mind when I made this. What time would be best for everyone? "what day will this go down? (I could live stream)
I'd be down for some, I own a tonne of games aswell, bar CS:S. Though if it's a mod (Apart from zombie mod) I can download it.
Ima throw Sven co-op out there as an option.
" I would totally buy M&B Warband if there was going to be an official Steam game night. Just keep the Valve FPS games off the menu. I'll be happy if I never see the acronyms TF2, L4D, or CSS ever again. So far this is just a TF2 thread. "Hate to brake it to you,but when someone says "I play a lot of PC games" You can wager that most of them sure as hell aren't talking about M&B :D
I also would do this and think its a great idea. Some ideas that i think might be good:
Start first week with tf2 since most people have it and it's generally like.
Do a poll type thing the week before so we can vote on what games the most of us have and want to play together. (I see this heavily dominated by steam sales or valve games because of how prolific they are.)
Maybe some half life 2 mods since most people own at least one steam game so it'd be free. It could be interesting since we could all check out some mods that don't have a community that play it otherwise anymore.
In a similar fashion, we could have some classic gaming nights once in a while. Warcraft, diablo, homeworld, the skies the limit.
What day and time are you guys planning to have this thing? It could be nice to have it on thursdays since tnt is already that day. Maybe we could even coerce dave or mike into joining us on occasion.
But anyway, i'm down for anything, even if it just turns out to be tf2 once in a while.
Well the great thing about new Steam UI is that when we add each other to friends, we can see what games each other own. I'm totally down for a TF2 night, M&B Warband is really fun with lots of people in vent or something.
At first I thought you'd be good (like pug.na experience and whatnot) but after looking at your stats...you have some lobby experience....nice :D" i hope you guys are ready to get destroyed at TF2. add me up my steam is: 6ZZA EDIT* we really should make a steam group for this thing. and if nobody else is going to. i will go right ahead and do it. and dish out admin to anybody who wants to organize this. "
We need all the people who have league experience (myself and turbomonkey) to start scriming and whatnot.
