Only because i wasnt there to kick you butt.

[CJF28]

yea, because THAT happened alot :rolleyes:

[oaktown2000]

Wife demanding some attention? *wink*wink*nudge*nudge* ;) :D

We're still what some would consider newlyweds...so that's a given....however, this particular reason is due to work. I can no longer wake up whenever I want and stroll into work (for example...this entire week I never made it in before 1pm). I'm taking over some expansive duties that require me to actually put in a 9 to 5 day....i know..conformity sucks ;) :p

[avsfan21]

Come on there could still be a day or so that you could put in a game of late gaming. I believe you could manage a day on a few hours of sleep once in a while.

[Rick Geer]

Now evey game I put in is saying unreadable disk. Anybody have a problem like this???? I double checked and the games aren't scratched

[avsfan21]

Sounds like it is time to call the lovely support line so you can talk to Max than to an agent.

Funny mine pretty much looked exactly the same. I have the second highest level DSL as well, I know there is one that gives you like 6000 for a bit more. Although I still wouldnt trade it for cable because personal I feel that DSL is a lot more stable.

[CJF28]

i dont know what they mean, and i dont know how to post picks, but my connections are always around 5000download and 300upload

I wish I had the option for their highest level DSL...not even available yet down here :mad:

[avsfan21]

Basically what you have to do is divide those numbers by 8 and it will tell you how many KB you get per second. Since this tells you Kilobits.

[avsfan21]

I wish I had the option for their highest level DSL...not even available yet down here :mad:

That sucks I think it is like 49.99 here too. The 3 MB dsl here is like 35.

[supertim]

Tonight was awesome, guys. Thanks!

[CJF28]

it was my please, to kill you guys all nite long

[someguy6000]

Face it, all of you were bowled over by my newfound skills;)

[Lord Magneto]

so i started playing marvel ultimate alliance...man is that game friggin cool... i bought the heroes/villian pack so i can play as magneto... friggin cool as hell... i just wish more of the environment was destructable like in the old xmen legends games

if by 'bushleague" you meant beating the living snot out of you every round no matter what weapon you went for, then yes, I guess it was bush league. If your implying cheating was needed, well "its a poor craftsman who blames his tools"

cory

[someguy6000]

billy bush league is me getting on the troyka when it was 3 on 2 :p

[supertim]

Speaking of league, is anyone going to be on tonight? The wife thumbed through Harry Potter all day (got it from amazon), and read the very end first off, natch...and now she must study since she didn't during the day. That means SuperTim games tonight:)

[someguy6000]

i'll be on of course i have no night life

[avsfan21]

I wont be on of course. I will just have to read Harry Potter. :p

[oaktown2000]

Whoever was looking for the Gears of War faceplate.....my local FYE has the package combo...it has the face plate and two different "skins" you can apply to the top of your 360....it was $29.99. If you want it...just let me know.

[someguy6000]

keith that was me does the faceplate have the blood red cog symbol on it or is it the one with dom a marcus on the front?

[XSsoCX]

Dom is where it's at. If you aint down with Dom you aint nothing. ;) :p

Keith, COJ is going Mon.

[avsfan21]

Dom is a wussy. He is always freaking dying. I hate having to go pick up his stupid ass all the time.

[XSsoCX]

You will bite your tongue Mike! God damn it, to speak ill of Dom is blasphemy.

[avsfan21]

Well Dom shouldnt make it so easy for his head to get popped off.

Matt - thanks for putting up with those lameasses...is something wrong tonight? For awhile there I had more kills than you did...definitely weird:)

[Chugga]

Two Worlds is just around the corner are we going to have enough boardies interested in slaying mythical beasts? Last I knew keith and cory were both game, anyone else wanna whoop up on some wizards this august?

Damn straight bro. Ive been waiting for this game since I think March?

[Chugga]

Awesome I want a full team of 8 out there beating the crap out of things. I think pyrrhonist said he was in too...so that makes 5.

[XSsoCX]

I wonder how that multiplayer is going to work. Is it a co-op storyline or co-op do whatever the hell you want.

thanks for the game the other day, was fun, haven't played online in a LONG time, not since halo 2. But yeah i had fun, def hit me up if you guys see me online again, i'll get better at it the more i play ;):D

[Chugga]

Last I heard theres a single player game then an online multiplayer game...same world, you can carry your characters over and gain weapons playing multiplayer then use them in your single player game and back and forth. But to be honest the whole online part of Two Worlds is so cloudy that for every time I've heard thats how it works I've heard from someone else thats not how it works at all. So who knows.

[avsfan21]

I cant say yay or nay at the moment. I would like to get it but I will have to see when it comes out.

[XSsoCX]

[fluxcapacitorsandwich]

ha, after we played, they finished a few minutes after i started downloading them again. So i got them all now :D

yeah i thought that was pretty ironic with you saying show me how it's done then you end the match with more kills than me. :eek: as for the ******s we feel in with yeah it was fun killing them but to bad when the two girls were on my team that friendly fire wasn't on.

and yes i think kids are getting dumber now adays they were talking in the dead lobby weather or not drinking to much pepsi will make you drunk:rolleyes:

anyone try the stuntman demo? It was pretty fun. I dont know if its $60 worth of fun, but definitely a long rental

I've been waiting a long while for this one. Count me in on that. :)

[supertim]

Two Worlds look cool, but to me has a WoW kind of feel to it...I guess that won't be too bad, seeing how people like WoW so much...I'll rent it first, but will be more inclined to purchase (if I like enough) knowing that I won't be running around an online environment with a room full of complete choads.

[supertim]

Not to doubt my slowly improving skills, but I was sitting there thinking to myself "sweeeet!" when I was cleaning the room up for a bit - especially the 3 kill one. Don't worry, Matt. I suppose it was my turn to carry you during the game. I see what you have to put up with from me so often...bless you, sir. Bless you all!!! :):):)

Regardless, it was still fun playing with familiar folks...those kids sure were braindead, weren't they?

If you drink too much Pepsi you won't ever get drunk, but may have a good chance at a diabetic coma...well, maybe.

[Chugga]

Two Worlds online only supports 8 people as opposed to WoW's thousands upon thousands of people. I believe the PC version of Two Worlds has hundreds of people but we are talking about the 360 version and thats definately locked down at 8. You can password protect your online game too so none of the idiots get in, thats why I'm trying to get 8 boardmembers together to max out the online game and go terrorize trolls and maybe hobbits if they are in the game.

I'm down for sure. Well...when I say "for sure"...I mean...I will wait two-three days after it comes out and see if everyone says it absolutely sucks. If that happens...no buying...if it doesn't happen...I'll run out and get it.

anyone try the stuntman demo? It was pretty fun. I dont know if its $60 worth of fun, but definitely a long rental

I tried it...pretty damn tough to get through without the "X"s. Although kinda fun...I don't think I'd even rent it.

[meatgoat]

Anyone here have one of those Datel Transfer Kits? I bought one cause the rosters for ncaa 08 I bought off ebay were just emailed to me as a file. My problem is I can't figure out where I'm supposed to put them on the memory card to have them show up on the 360. Doesn't seem to matter which directory I put them in they never show up. :confused:

Plus the rosters I bought seem to be too big for my 64 MB card. I had to find another roster file on the web that was smaller so I could even fit them on the card.

[someguy6000]

keith pm returned

[PrimeBane]

I'll be picking up Two Worlds :)

What's the official release date? Mid Augustish?

[CJF28]

[XSsoCX]

What did you find out that Dom is g ay?

[pyrrhonist]

Awesome I want a full team of 8 out there beating the crap out of things. I think pyrrhonist said he was in too...so that makes 5.

I should be in, as long as I catch up on the unfinished games I have. I need to put the finishing touches on Oblivion (just the main quest and DL content to go), and also on Saints Row (side missions and Rollaz missions...unless there is more---NO SPOILERS, please!). Plus, I scored a cheap copy of the "Gold Edition" Marvel: UA this weekend, so add another. What's killing me now is besides my free online Lackluster coupon I can use for a game rental in-store, you can now trade your online envelopes in the store to get games for $4.99. Much better than the over-priced $8-9 they charge. I've been renting too much. But, if I can get those games mentioned done (or at least caught up), I should up for it. I don't want it to be like November/December/Jan all over again, where it's just the 1 game all the time. :D

Is it still a challenging game? I remember the PS2 one being a pain in the ass to play.

lol...if it's anything like last night...you're gonna need more then a game or two.....



that was terrible....and embarassing...thank god I returned it today. Before I play any multiplayer online game again...I'm upgrading to cable. Someguy's numbers are just ridiculous with a cable connection, I still cannot get over an upload rate of close to 3k....I wish I had a 100Xs better shotgun :(

Hey, I did just fine in most games last night... even came out on top for 1 game (I can't remember the last time that happened). :D

the only complaint i have with my cable is it goes out of sync at least once or twice per day most of the time i don't notice it cuz i'm not on at that point but it's annoying because when my internet doesn't work neither does my phone then i have to ask my self...self why are you paying 100 or so per month to have service that works when it wants to?So did anyone manage any Gears achievements Friday night?



I know I certainly added to my numbers, but I think I need another night or two before I hit some that magical "100"...

i need about 8,000 more kills before i hit the magical 10,000 kills other wise i still need the annex achivements

[fluxcapacitorsandwich]

I'm up for some GoW on tuesday night if anyone is interested.

[PrimeBane]

i need about 8,000 more kills before i hit the magical 10,000 kills other wise i still need the annex achivements

I could play for the next 2 years straight and never get than 10,000 acheivment. :(

I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever get any of the new map achievements... it's 20 wins for each one right? I think I added 1 to my total last night. :(

i have to ask my self...self why are you paying 100 or so per month to have service that works when it wants to?


So that your shotgun fires something other then cotton balls...like mine does


You know what would be crazy...if they added the "kill-cam" from COD2 to Gears. That used to show exactly how far behind the other players you were. Running around the corner of a building...blam...dead...thinking..."how in the hell did I get shot from that angle around the corner of a cement building".....you get to watch the "kill-cam" replay of your own death from your opponents point of view....only to see that you were 2 feet away from even rounding the corner on his screen when he popped you. That would be great in Gears ;) People would be freaking out..."I shot you 6 times and you shot me once"....."look at that...I hit you with the boom shot point blank and nothing"....that'd be great

[XSsoCX]

I agree Keith a Kill Cam would be nice for Gears. But at sometimes it would be very bad I could see how bad I was missing.

[PrimeBane]

If you die first you can always watch the live kill cam. :)

My parents have cable at their place. I cant stand it. Sure at times the speed is faster, but the connection is so unstable that it just sucks. The way cable works is that you share your connection with the entire area for that cable box. So it kind of depends on how many people have cable in your area as to how fast your speed will be. Plus I have had a lot of packet loss issues on cable. There are also times where it just decides it doesnt want to work. DSL at least is a connection for your house alone.

Actually I didn't think it was that bad at all.

I dont think I'm good enough to play Gears or R6Vegas w/ you guys, I just dont play that often to be good. And I may get hammered for this one, but I'll ask anyway.
Does anyone plan on gettting Nascar 08???

[rugbyplayer11]

i plan on renting it

[rugbyplayer11]

how does this multiplayer thing work b/c i just got my 360 and I have Rainbow 6 LV. Is it like Counter strike

[avsfan21]

I am thinking of getting it Nascar 08, but not 100% yet.

[PrimeBane]

I dont think I'm good enough to play Gears or R6Vegas w/ you guys, I just dont play that often to be good.

I wouldn't worry about it... it's for fun and the more you play with us, the better you'll get. :)

Plus the comments after getting killed are worth the price of admission alone :D

[avsfan21]

Yeah nothing beats being in the lobby when Scotty or Keith gets killed Although since Keith traded the game in you have to treasure the times you get to hear "You have got to be ****ing kidding me man" or "That is ****ing ridiculous"

[avsfan21]

Also if you do play just make sure you dont play as Dom because I heard he plays for the other team. Only people that lean that direction use him.

[XSsoCX]

Also if you do play just make sure you dont play as Dom because I heard he plays for the other team. Only people that lean that direction use him.

:rolleyes:

Your really big on this Dom is g@y thing lately. Are you really that bored since your 360 kicked the bucket that you are trying to figure out which videogame character are straight or not?

[Lord Magneto]

Question for all you Marvel Ultimate Alliance fans - Whats your favorite Team Cominations?

Currently I'm running with Magneto, Wolverine, Iceman/Cyclops, and Sabertooth (you get that nice x-men bonus as well)

[someguy6000]

i''ve been using wolverine sabertooth cyclops and i switch out the last guy every now and again between dr. doom nightcrawler and hulk. i guess i really don't have a favorite combo at the moment but as soon as i unlock ghost rider i'm gonna throw him in the mix

[Lord Magneto]

I unlocked the Xorn costume for magneto... pretty dang cool that they added that in there. I'm interested to see what some of the other unlocked costumes are.

[PrimeBane]

I've been using Wolverine, Cyclops, Magneto and Colussus... if someone bite it (usually Wolverine) I swap in Sabretooth.

[someguy6000]

i'm going to try the fantastic 4 as a team tonight see what kinda bounus that gives out

[Master Windu]

Anyone else having problems with live? So far I've lagged out of games (which never happens until today) takes forever to send a game invite/decline them, people can't join or even sign on to live. wondering if it is just areas or the whole network.

[Moe Szyslak]

The cool thing about Nascar is up to 12 players can race, and you can practice on the track while you are waiting for guys to join the race.

Also, how much is the update on Marvel Alliance to get the new characters, like the Hulk?

[PrimeBane]

800 MS points to get both packs together.

[Outkastxleo]

do you guys know if there is another support number besides the 4myxbox one? i cant seem to get through......

[pyrrhonist]

800 MS points to get both packs together.

Either that, or get yourself a Gold copy of the game. I finally bought the game...broke down. It's actually not that bad, considering when I first saw it coming out, I decided not to, since I figured after playing through both X-Men Legends games, it'd be more of the exact same thing. The bad news, though, is apparently you can't continue a saved game with the new content. Crap, as I am already in deep on Act 3. :mad:

totally worth it as well... So far ive only used Cyclops, Hulk, Magneto, Sabertooth, and Venom

I found out lastnight you can select precreated teams and you can create your own team then assign attributes to that team... that go to all of your team members... pretty cool...

[Lord Magneto]

The bad news, though, is apparently you can't continue a saved game with the new content. Crap, as I am already in deep on Act 3. :mad:

Not that I know of... I was on that under water level when I bought the new characters and I was able to continue without starting over...

Has anyone beat the game yet? When you beat it can you play the game again and your characters stay at the same power level? Or does it get reset?

[PrimeBane]

do you guys know if there is another support number besides the 4myxbox one? i cant seem to get through......

It's the only one I know of... keep trying and you'll get through (try early morning or late at night for the best results)

[PrimeBane]

Either that, or get yourself a Gold copy of the game. I finally bought the game...broke down. It's actually not that bad, considering when I first saw it coming out, I decided not to, since I figured after playing through both X-Men Legends games, it'd be more of the exact same thing. The bad news, though, is apparently you can't continue a saved game with the new content. Crap, as I am already in deep on Act 3. :mad:

Damn, sorry man. I know it was a problem for some losing save game data. :(

i believe you keep the same levels you were at when you ended the game.

Yes. Yes. It's up to you...you can play with your current stats..or reset them.

[avsfan21]

Nope 1-800-4myxbox is the service number. Make sure you are typing it in right. I did it wrong the first time.

[Outkastxleo]

yeah, im typing it in right, just takes forever to get through....also is that a 24hr line? im going to have to call on my way to work in the mornings.....

[PrimeBane]

Yup, 24 hours... you usually get a nice gentleman from India after you put up with the automated system.

Actually it isnt 24 hours. It is from like 10am to 1 am est I think.

[avsfan21]

Well microsoft has gotten my 360, so now the wait for them to fix it and send it back. Then hope that they fixed it right.

Might be able to make it for some Gears. I was going to hop on last night but no one was really playing.

[Smbdyfnkillme]

Any Gears tonight gentlemen?

I'm back from vacation so I'll be on later tonight. I was actually looking to play last night, but only Cory was on.

[Lord Magneto]

Yea i should be up for a round or 7... If I'm playing something else just hit me up and i will switch on over...

I unlocked the Xorn costume for magneto... pretty dang cool that they added that in there. I'm interested to see what some of the other unlocked costumes are.

i forget where i was looking them up, but i think it might have been wikipedia.org that had the full list (and pictures) of all the variant costumes. If not a little research and you can easily find them, i know they are out there i just forget where :D

that match was embarassing so was the crap match billy was playing i couldn't shoot the broad side of a barn took me 4 rounds to get one kill

[XSsoCX]

Man, I just played in the g@yest Gears matches ever! My two teammates were downing me and our other team mate and then "pretending" they were doing the downed characters. And the other would go to the front of the downed character and pretend well you know..... I can not believe people are this f***king lame. It is pretty much pathetic in all ways of the word. They were loud annoying and laughing/joking about it the whole time. Saying totally obnoxious things like "Oh you like it when I f___ you dont baby". etc. I may get banned for this post. But I am in shock I guess that some people have to act like total ******s. Maybe they were picked on alot as kids or are total outcasts in high school. And when they are on Live they feel as if they are "cool" or "untouchable" so they can act like this.. I dont know sorry, I guess I had to just vent about these two jack*****'s.

From Bungie with reguards to coop online:


The Internet’s hair was lit on fire this week and in between running around the kitchen screaming and waiting for the faucet to fill up with the cool water of logic a bunch of hair got torched. Have you ever smelled burnt hair? We’re not recommending you go out and try and A) burn your own hair or B) burn someone else’s hair, but just take our word for it – the smell of burnt hair is the smell of a thousand failures being vomited from the gullet of a tentacled creature hiding in a wet hole. It’s gross.

We didn’t start the fire, but a series of reports that spread from an unfortunate leak of an upcoming issue of U.S. enthusiast magazine Electronic Gaming Monthly spiraled out of control and suddenly reports on the Internet included salacious headlines like “Halo 3 Co-Op Heads Offline” and heads needed to be dipped in ice water in order to prevail.

All we confirmed to EGM for their sweet, mind-twitterpating Campaign reveal (and other massive feature reveal) regarding Cooperative Play in Halo 3’s Campaign is that System Link co-op will be included in Halo 3. Just like we told EGM, we’re aware that people want co-op online but the challenge of getting our complicated A.I. systems, huge game world, and gargantuan encounters neatly packaged and transferring across the Interwebz is a mythic undertaking. Nonetheless, like other elements of Halo 3, online co-op is a feature we’re wrestling with somewhere in a muddy and muggy Florida swamp against a ton-toothed Alligator, but, what we haven’t really talked about is how big the knife we brought to the wrasslin’ match is.

All that said, EGM doesn’t really know whether or not Halo 3 will ship with online co-op, only Bungie knows. The only thing they did know is that co-op was available for split-screen and System Link. As we approach the tail end of development, we will have a clearer picture of whether or not that online feature will be included. Assuming either way would be foolish at this time. We will say more when we feel it’s prudent. Because that’s how we roll.

[MofoEd]

Movies..yeah...video games...not so much...at least in my experience...they are always $59.99
Yeah I rarely see sales on video games during thier release down here in the states. But I did get a decent deal on a HALO 3 Pre order for 39.99 :)

[PrimeBane]

Movies..yeah...video games...not so much...at least in my experience...they are always $59.99

You guys definately get better deals on movies now... we're lucky to get $5 off the first day.

Oh well, I guess they have to throw us Canucks a bone considering how hard they screw us over on consumer electronics prices compared to the USA.

Since the designs of these cars are "locked" by the original artist, I cannot gift them to anybody. Only the original artist of locked designs can gift the car or sell on the Auction House.

If the design was unlocked I could copy it all sorts of cars and gift them to anybody.

You do need the game to get cars gifted to you

If you get the game, let me know and I'll help you out. I can gift some cars that I don't need anymore.

Also, visit http://www.forzamotorsport.net People have lots of cool designs out there they are selling for game credits.

so, when you call for a box, what do you need for the warranty? just the serial #?

[avsfan21]

They will ask for the serial # and I guess some how they know if it is under warranty or not. I told him the serial # and he was like yeah that is still a warranty on it. I was thinking how the hell do you know when I bought it, but I didnt argue since he said it was all good. I just thought it was kind of strange. Although I had previously registered my 360, but that was a while after I bought it.

Simple - ever notice when you buy a game system, they ring up the serial number? check the receipt. That tells Microsoft exactly when the system was purchased.

[avsfan21]

I havent bought a system at a store but the normally from what I could tell is just ring the bar code on the box not the serial number on the system. I ordered my 360 off of amazon so I have no idea what they did.

[PrimeBane]

so, when you call for a box, what do you need for the warranty? just the serial #?

I'm not even sure you need that... if you registered your 360 with your LIVE account they'll already have it on file.

They still ask for the serial # though I believe. That is how they pulled up my other info.

[Sbells]

I havent bought a system at a store but the normally from what I could tell is just ring the bar code on the box not the serial number on the system. I ordered my 360 off of amazon so I have no idea what they did.

Stores scan both, I'm sure Amazon does the same. That's why there is a hole in the box to offer access to the serial number. Had the store not scanned it, Microsoft wouldn't have had a purchase date on record.

2)Is it easy to download extras like characters, cars, maps, etc????

3) I am not very up to date on my user account for regualr play on xbox 360 so is it easy to then become online with my current info?? (what i mean by this is I see some of your sigs in here contain your profile and I am not very knowledgeable about the profile)

You don't need to do anything else to your Live profile. Just get the router like Sbrooks1 mentioned and just follow the instructions after you hook it up.

"Shun" and "sold" are 2 different terms, Scott! :D

I've never once had the lag issues in R6 games that I had with Gears of War. Plus, I've still got single-player stuff to accomplish in R6, whereas between Keith, David, and KillaB, I've played through the miniscule campaign (If you can call it that) of Gears' more than I'd like to admit. :p

Plus, the community in R6 has always treated me well (even going back to the previous Xbox incarnations). You can get rooms where it's pistols-only, and people agree to these versions. In Gears of War, it just became shotgun-city....but you know this, because we've all said it, ad-nauseum.

I was thinking about getting Nascar 08, but I am not sure. Some things scare me about it.

[Oiler_Fan]

Such as?

[avsfan21]

I dont know I have been hearing some bad things about it like a lot of bugs and things. Plus the whole flipping all the time thing. Just seems like another one of those EA Exclusive license games that they just put out knowing you cant get anything else.

[Oiler_Fan]

Hmmm...

I've only flipped once in about 25 races now and I've been crashing alot :D

Haven't noticed any bugs so far but time will tell.

[avsfan21]

I have time to make up my mind or not. I dont have the 360 plus I dont think I afford it until the around the 2nd week of august.

[Lord Magneto]

Deal if you have a Circuit City close by.

Maybe it's the fact that it's NASCAR. Isn't that enough to scare anyone?? :p

[avsfan21]

I have liked nascar since I was like 10 so that doesnt scare me. :p

Although I am not as big a fan as I use to be. I use to never miss a race now if there is something else on I am lucky if I just flip to the race once in a while.

[avsfan21]

Plus I would rather play a racing game than a NCAA football game that doesnt even have the create a school feature.

[Oiler_Fan]

:D

[someguy6000]

If you want to play Gears tonight add me(XSsoCX) and/or someguy6000.
thanks for thinking of me:D

[avsfan21]

Blah I beat Zelda now I finished off RE4. I am running out of games that can hold me off until I can get 360 back.

[XSsoCX]

thanks for thinking of me:D

np. Hey, where'd you go? Did you get into trouble with the wife?





RESIDENT EVIL 5 Trailer is up in the marketplace.

[someguy6000]

np. Hey, where'd you go? Did you get into trouble with the wife?
no she got home and talk literally for an hour straight by the time she was done it was 3 a.m. and i've got to work today. i don't see much of her during the week (she works days i work afternoons) so friday nights are kinda the catch up day on what's been going on

[supertim]

Anyone playing tonight?

[avsfan21]

Not me :(

[PrimeBane]

It's too hot to sleep again so I'll be on playing something... so many games to finish. :(

[PrimeBane]

"Shun" and "sold" are 2 different terms, Scott! :D

What I really wanted to play against you in was NHL2K7, but alas, I've sold that now, too!! ;)

Too bad... I never thought when the west costers got together that the lag was too bad. Plus you're missing out with the new Maps :)

I can tell you how the NHL2k7 would have gone... Buffalo 42, Edmonton 3. I got the game with my 360 and I've never played it. The kids really enjoyed it though.

[Lord Magneto]

I'm surprised you didn't leave when the "Oh Canada" and "Mounties" jokes came out.:p

[PrimeBane]

Wouldn't say much about me if I did.

You guys would have to be way worse to get me to leave. :p

[Smbdyfnkillme]

We didn't want you to leave. It was 2 in the morning and I had to do something to stay awake. I'll learn the rest of the words for next time.

I'm new to Gears terminology....what is "booming" and why are you apologizing for doing it?
