Late to the Party
So I got my Xbox about a year ago. Getting it so late in the life cycle of the system has put me behind in the online shooter games. I was out of gaming for several years and now I feel that the online games have passed me by. As a father of three, I don't have the time to invest to improve my skills and become competitive in games like COD and Halo. (From what I have heard, I am not even going to attempt to play Madden, too many changes in the game will put be way behind compared to other players). Don't get me wrong, I am not looking to dominate, but I would like to be able to at least be helpful or competent when I play online.
My hope in joining 2o2p is find other frustrated gamers that are on my same level.
On a different note, one good thing about being late to the video gaming party is the wide array of games that are already available. The catalog is so large and there are so many great deals out there, I refuse to pay $60 for a new release. For example, I just picked up Gears of War 2 for $40 which included all of the map packs. With so many great games I haven't played I don't see any reason to pay $60 for a game.
Hopefully this site will let me get even more enjoyment out of my gaming console.
