Hey guys,

I've been lurking for a while now and I feel like I know most of you! The majority of my posts are in the politics forum, but I read the majority of the sections.

Anyways,

I've been playing XBox live lately, but I'm kind of tired of always joining games with 13 year old brats that scream "PWNED!!" every time they kill me or something.

I got a couple of games that look like fun in Live and I was just wondering if I could add any of you to my friends list. Most of my Real Life friends don't play XBox, so I'm kind of SOL.

My tag is hoyaspook

If you're bored, or just wanna be nice, add me to your list or hit me up!

I know, sad post, but I'm lonely

why did you bother to ask if you don't have Live anymore? obviously, you wouldn't be playing.

I like to play Splinter Cell 2 PT, but damn when I get online. I get my A** beat. Its like the people I am forced to play with spend 99% of there free time on the BOX, and here I am "Mr. I play my BOX now and then" getting my a** beat. I just don't have the will to sit there for 10hrs fraging others. though my acct name is "puremacman" if anyone wants to play come Splinter Cell or Mech assault. I suck at both so you have an easy win

I think it's only worth it if you just get it... or have favorite game.

It's also great for people with no friends.

Unfortunately, you're going to have a hard time to avoid the 13 year olds on Live, especially in a game like SC: PT. That game seems to attract those little brats like **** attracts flies.

I'm on every now and then. Gamertag is xx237xx. I like to play SC: PT and Crimson Skies.

Yarg, nothing worse then using a keyboard for a controller, or fusing over tweaks to get your frame-rate up.
