    Just to say that there is ample couch space if a sleep over is required, I can ferry in the AM if peeps have trains or buses to catch

    Do you have two controllers for the Neo Geo, I bought King of Fighters XIII but it didn't arrive and I'm in a mood to play some SNK fighters!

    No, fat ghosts scare me :(


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,567 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Fat Ghosts?
    I don't think I've anything with those.
    There's some rotund zombies in House of the Dead, do they count??


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Are they the ghosts of fat people who died or ghosts who ate too much after death?

    Hard to imagine fat being stored after death has occurred, must be the former....

    I imagine Weightwatchers: Afterlife Club is under subscribed to be sure.

    What's the latest head count for tonight?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,120 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Depending on my car still running I'm going with 3 lucky passengers.

    I'm not sure where we are, if no one turns up I'll be eating a lot of party food on my own!
    Hopefully there'll be 10 or so, the more the merrier!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭CosmicSmash


    I should be putting in an appearance once I don't fall victim to the rule of EnterNow.

    Right, have 4 GC controllers, a Gamecube with all the wires, Mario Kart DD, a memory card with all MK DD completed on it and a Neo Geo controller. Anything I'm forgetting?

    Also found while I was up there my second PS3 controller and where my mam hid my sailor moon costume! Oh joy!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    forgot Calling, no fat ghosts :-(


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,120 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Bringing 1080 Avalanche as well since it's apparently LAN compatible. Only noticed it has no manual. Gamestop sticker on the front of it, ****ing typical.

    Oi!

    Why are they lucky, will they get a hand shandy in the back for a blowout sale price of a fiver?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,567 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I have a copy of 1080 here as well, should have a manual with it...

    I'm equal opportunities when it comes to reach arounds.

    Guys sorry but im out

    After getting sick in college and im feeling really **** at the moment

    Im sure Enternow will have a law that covers this

    Thanks Retro for the offer of a lift but i dont think it would be a good idea to spread whatever the hell i have to all you guys

    Play some Boulder Dash for me please :o


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,567 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Halo: Reach (around)...

    You know, topical game title jokes, they are popular and everyone knows them then, over a little time, everyone forgets about it as the next game comes along with a joke about it's title.

    I mean, Retr0 may be doing Halo: Reach (around)s now, but give it a little while and it'll be Skyrimming to beat the band!

    Bugger, sorry to hear it man.

    Hopefully see you at the next one.

    The rule of Enternow covers this alright.
    Never thought you'd be falling into that category!
