This is my big complaint with consoles. I loved LAN parties. Sometimes we'd have 10-12 people in our house, all in the same game.

Now to do that you all have to have the same console, whatever premium anal-rape membership lets you play online, and headsets. And you can't split into teams.

We played more Beatles Rock Band ourselves. I love love love my George Harrison guitar. I'd hit a limit of capability with the Rock Band guitar, so now the frustration of a poor tool is gone, and I can focus on my technique.

It would appear that if you play songs in Quickplay, the score doesn't overwrite the score you got on that song in Story. At least it didn't replace our star counts.

In My Brute news, anyone who feels like getting their ass handed to them by Maleficum should step right up.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Raq, did you mis-spell that because I thought that Brute of yours was a higher level than 5. Scola, you might have to go another round...

Anything for a weird life.

Yeah, it's Malificum, two I's. Looks kind of hobbit-y and has a cute and fuzzy widdle pet BEAR.

Yeah level 14. That's more of what I expected. My best brute - in terms of win/loss ratio is only level 10, but he gave it a good shot... [link]

Three other brutes of varying levels did so-so. My best defensive Brute, Ill Omen fared better... [link]

Kinda makes you think you won the right to take the bear by his leash and make him yours. Naming George is optional. Alas, My Brute doesn't work that way.

In more MyBrute news, this match starts with something I've wanted to see Peeeeeeeeev do for a long long time - [link]

Ill Omen handed Mal his first defeat in ages. Nicely done. Have a bear.

Omnis, yes I wish I could save it in slow motion.

Raq, ta very much. Ill Omen is pretty good with that shield.
