Kids these days eh?
 
My little brother's birthday party is in a few hours, and I just found out he is hosting a lan party!:o

His friends are all going to bring their wiis to my house, and they are going to game! When i was 9, I didn't have a lan party, we went to play laser tag!


And just to add to my surprise, my little brother will recieve his first laptop in a few hours.


I hope this title has drawn your attention, and I hope some of you guys can help a friend out here. Please help, and play SH5 with me:DL

I will be waiting with a copy of SH5 1.2 in the ubi lobby

and remember! Call the_tyrantx on skype for a good time:03:

When I was in high school, a LAN party meant a bunch of PCs and Quake, not Wii.

Kids these days indeed :dead:

we had lan parties with our pcs and Call of Duty UO. and that was something we did on summer nights. for birthdays we went lazer tagging or something like that. either way , wii parties aren't my bag.

When I was a kid we didn't have PCs, so we had LAWN parties instead!

When I was a kid, we had no PC's but I DID have LOTS of board games. We used to play board games like crazy when we were kids. My birthday parties always consisted of board games all day. Then, later on in life, when we discovered Dungeons & Dragons, it turned into D&D or some other role playing game all day and night. :rock:

You were there? You saw this? Your word is not sufficient evidence to convict me of being "older than the hills and twice as dusty". Beware, you are in danger of being called "old" yourself. :O:

Lawn? You were lucky to have a lawn! We got evicted from our lawn and had to go play in a landfill! But it was a garden to us!!!

We played outside all day. No PC's, no consoles. Head round to the neighbours with my air rifle and we would go shoot rabbits on the farm. Now its head round to the mates place and play the PS/Xbox. And kids! They think they know it all when it comes to computers they are so right and geeky and all that geeky stuff! Well I got news for them! Some blardy well are! :rotfl2: I once had this ten yr old turn up home with my son one day saw I was using windows 98 back then and ranted on about redhat linux and unix. I listened :o. That kid grew up and writes code for a firm.
