Testing the Waters: Mini 360 Arcade Gaming Night

April 10th, 2008 · 10 Comments

Many 360 owners may have noticed a thread in the forums asking which Arcade games they owned. While it was partly out of curiosity, I wanted to see if there were enough Arcade players to justify a community gathering once a week. I believe there is.

On Saturday April 12th, I’ll be kicking off the first Arcade gamer night on the Xbox 360.

The game will be Texas Hold ‘Em, and invites will be sent out roughly around 5 PM EST (subject to change).

If you don’t have Texas Hold ‘Em or would like to play a different game, just state so in your post. If everyone in the room has Bomberman, for instance, I don’t see why we couldn’t just switch over. Also, the Gamer Night is a chance for the community to get together and play, just because the main room is playing Hold ‘Em, doesn’t mean you can’t meet up with a few people in the thread and play Worms.

Post your gamertag here.

Update: The forum members have resoundingly chosen Saturday afternoon before the PS3 night to play. So unless all the Thursday players come out in droves and vote, it looks like Saturday around 5 EST is our time. Post has been edited to reflect that.

      Damn you, why do this during the week. :(

      @ Trickster15 - ‘What time is this in british’
      Im guessing you mean GMT? :p
      It’ll be at about 3-4am, I’ve forgotten which though because of daylight savings time.

      This should definitely be held during the weekends.

      Oh, and the game HAS to be Undertow.

      @trickster: 10:15 pm CST is 4:15 am BST.

      @Animathias
      I would post there but I’m not allowed to, I can sign in but I may not post new threads, I may not post replies, I may not post attachments, and I may not edit my posts. What’s the deal?

      RK1, seems like you need to validate your email address. I don’t remember if the forums require activation beyond the email verification, though I could be wrong.
      Double check your email and junk folders, if you don’t have the validation email, stop over at http://www.sarcasticgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2564 and DDL can help you out.
      New members can still post on the Help forums.

      In any case, just leave your gamertag with your next message and you’re sure to get in :).

      No problem. Is RK1 FaMiCuS your Forum handle? If so, I’ll point DDL to your problem.

    • 10 RK1 FaMiCuS // Apr 10, 2008 at 7:31 pm

      No, for the forum is just FaMiCuS.
