Most Memorable Online Gaming ExperienceMarch 29, 2014 by

For those of you who play online, I'm sure you've made online buddies; Playstation friends, Xbox friends, Nintendo friends. Whatever system you're playing on, at least the more recent generations, has some sort of friend capability. Personally, I love playing online because I get bored and lonely playing games alone. I don't have any one to locally play co-op with, so I turn to the online world. Of course, certain games are harding to make friends on than others.

I've grew up with Nintendo systems since the Nintendo 64 to the Wii, but then switched over to the Xbox 360 my first year of high school. My first online Xbox games included Left4Dead and Gears of War. That same year I switched systems Left4Dead2 came out and I'd like to thank that game because I met most of my long term Xbox friends on there.

Any who blah blah blah, my life story. Over the few years I've had my Xbox 360 I have acquired a pretty decent gaming library (at least 30+ games; mix of single, co-op and multiplayer.) But the one thing I love about multiplayer and co-op is that it can be experienced with friends. I remember so many gaming moments that we've shared together and some of them just make me laugh.

So here are my most memorable online gaming moments I've shared with friends; I'm not going to mention any names, but if they do read this they'll know who they are XD


The Good


This game was great for multiplayer. Of course there were a lot of d-bags on there, but it was fun to just ride around and kill gang members (and of course the occasional player). I personally don't like killing other players because I want to be left alone, but my friends get much joy out of it. You know once one member of the gang kills another, everyone gets involved! Surprisingly, this "good" moment actually has nothing to do with PvP.

One day, I joined my friend's game of Red Dead Redemption. It was him, his other friend and me. They wanted to show me this new "game" they created. So we all get on our horses and rode into the sunset...just kidding...we rode to a train track bridge. They said the were going to "joust"...

Now the rules for jousting is that you mount your horse. Each player goes to one and and charges in a straight path towards the other. You're mainly suppose to use your knife (not the throwing knife) to try and slice each other.

We manipulated the weapons rule because obviously the rules aren't official.

Just for story sake, I'll be referring to my friends as Friend 1 and Friend 2.

So I watch from a distance on a nearby mountain and become the referee. Friend 1 went to one end, Friend 2 went to the opposite side. I said when to start. They both pull out their tomahawks and charge at each other. All of a sudden I hear Friend 1 screaming "Yesssss", as I see Friend 2's horse fall down and him fall onto the tracks with it. But then, I hear that "yes" turn into a "Nooooo" as Friend 1 loses control of his horse and gallops off the bridge to his death, inevitably leaving Friend 2 to win.

I was in the mountain just watching the whole thing and laughing hysterically. I think we all were. We do the dumbest sh*t in games, but that's why multiplayer games are fun. Afterthat...I think we tried jousting with molotovs and throwable weapons. :p

The Bad


This event probably happened a month ago when Civilization was free to Xbox Live Gold members, "Games with Gold". I downloaded it because my friends were raving about it, so I was like sure I'll give it a try.

Somehow this first game turned into a 6hr game that lasted until 4am. I was so tired the next day, I had owl ringlets under my eyes.

Any who, again for reference, I'll be referring to my friends as Friend 1 (same guy from the RDR moment) and Friend 3.

So Friend 3 was telling me the how the other day Friend 1 screwed him over in the game. That Friend 1 and another player basically gang attacked him and destroyed his city nonetheless. Basically morale of the story, don't trust Friend 1!

So then us three decided to play the game. I've never played any of the Civilization games before, so I really did not understand what was happened or how to win. Of course Friend 1 over there was like a huge Civilization fan and knew what to do, Friend 3 got some experience the day prior and then there's me who is clueless about what to do. I think I played a single-player round before that, but was still confused.

Any who, the story goes that all 3 of us made an alliance. The AI's at one point in time constantly kept attacking us. I had to constantly keep killed Americans because they kept attacking me. While I was having my AI war, Friend 1 & 3 were having a war with the English. So eventually all the AI's were eliminated and the game was about to end in a few turns (goes up to 3000AD).

I stuck to my word and so did Friend 3. Friend 3 had basically been giving me warnings not to trust Friend 1, but I did anyways. LESSON LEARNED! Friend 1 decided to be greedy and broke our peace treaty. I figured something was up when he said, "Hey Missy, Beijing's looking pretty nice." 5 minutes later, oh hey look at the pretty nuke....well you can pretty much guess what happened.

My friend totally decimated my city. His excused was that he destroyed Friend 3 (they are brothers) the other day, so it just wouldn't be right to do it again. Friend 3 initially thought that nuke was going to his city, but the second he saw it heading south to Beijing a great weight was lifted. I just became silent. I stayed up so late just to be annihilated by a nuclear bomb. I went from 1st place to last place. I still need to get revenge on Friend 1. Not only did he destroy my city, but a few weeks prior to that he stole all my blue hybrid Violets in my Animal Crossing game. ... someday I will get my revenge!

The Ugly


I am so excited for Trials Fusion to release on April 16th, that game is going to be amazing!

I got this game during the Christmas sales specials and instantly fell in love with it. It was challenging, very frustrating, but at the same time extremely fun. Honestly, I was never really any good at it and could barely pass the Hard levels, I think I just needed more practice.

What I really enjoyed was the user created tracks. Some of the scenic ones were really beautiful; I remember playing an Alan Wake themed one and a Jurassic Park one. And then of course there were the extremely difficult ninja tracks, where I personally just did not have the skill to complete them.

One of my other friends, Friend 4, was a huge Trials fan. So we played it online. I was really good at Supercross, not so much the Trials XD

We both downloaded this user created track called "Water Works". I swear this track was so difficult. My friend was really good at the game, like he could complete those user created ninja tracks where I would inevitably have to give up because I couldn't figure it out. But even this track, freaking "Water Works" stumped him. I actually got farther than he did, I'm pretty sure we didn't even make it to the halfway checkpoint and already had like 100 faults. Whenever we did make it to the next checkpoint we got so happy. If one of us made it before another we would try to explain how we did it. Some of them were so complicated, like right in the beginning you had to like wheelie onto your back so you could bounce off the water upside-down and then flip yourself back upright. This track was ridiculous. It was extremely frustrating, especially because we were at it for at least an hour. It's quite embarrassing, but I will forever remember that moment. We were both struggling XD


So tell me;

What's your most memorable online gaming memory?

For those who don't play online, what's your most memorable gaming memory?

Call of Duty: Game Chat NightmareMarch 7, 2014 by



I've heard,

"I will find you and kill you in your sleep"
"Your mother should've aborted you"
"A kid with down syndrome is smarter that you"



Most popular insults;

"Get back in the kitchen"
"Make me a sandwich"
"I bet you're 500lbs"

And then I'm like;

Spongebob Meme





Guy: "Does anyone have a mic?"
Me: "Yes"
Guy: "Omg, is that a girl?"
Me: "Yes"
Guy: "You have a sexy voice"






So tell me;

What are the main derogatory comments you hear online?

What do you think of the people who say them?

Thank for reading :)
Happy International Women's Day!
I'm hoping the Titanfall community doesn't become sour.
