Weekend Update: The Diablo II Edition
November 25, 2007
Mike ended up having to work yesterday so there was no Dungeons and Dragons this weekend - instead I was apparently supposed to go up to Miniature Tonka Ville and hang out with James and Andy. Alas, I slept late and totally didn't realize our plans - but all was not lost! For you see, we are connected by a series of interconnecting tubes through which data and kittens flow!
When we made the giant Draz head a few weekends back, James introduced me to Skype. It looked like an interesting program so I decided to give it a shot to establish some voice chats with James. Skype lets you essentially use VOIP for Internet to Internet calls for free which seemed like quite an offer. With the recent discovery that my 360 headset worked with my PC, I was quite excited to give voice chats a go.
Anyway; A few hours later and James and I were off playing through Diablo II (circa 2000 baby!) complete with voice chat. Good fun was had rescuing [C|K]ane from the evil clutches of Diablo's minions. Somewhere around 2100 we decided to call the quits so that I could get other work around the house done, but all told we probably spent at least three hours with some delicious click-festive action. Om noms!
So this weekend has been happily split amongst Mario Galaxy, DDO (download the trial client already James!) and Diablo II. What have you guys been playing this weekend?

as usual.. it's been a mix between CS:S and the newly purchased COD4. Quite fun :) I do want to get Mario Galaxy as well. Maybe for the upcoming holiday ;)

David! Hello there good sir. Long time no see. Hopefully all is well. We should get together for lunch sometime. I can't even begin to calculate the value that you've gotten from your copy of CS:S. How is COD4? I've contemplated picking it up for the 360 but there's so many other games demanding my attention.

COD4 is actually surprisingly fun. I didn't care much for its predecessors, but this one is fun. I can't quite pinpoint what I like better. There aren't many games that I keep playing after I buy them, but this is one of them.

I actually kind of liked CoD2 - what with there being potatoes as grenades in the beginning of the game and all. So uh... did you get CoD4 for the PC or the 360?

Aah, I thought so. I was just probing to see if there was someone else that I needed to add to my friends list! We'll have to invite you over the next time I host a LAN party.
