Weekend Confirmed 87 - Zelda: Skyward Sword, Halo Anniversary, Skyrim
by Garnett Lee, Nov 18, 2011 11:00am PSTLink's next adventure, the Legend of Zelda: Skyward sword kept Billy--who also penned the Shacknews.com review--enthralled for over fifty hours. Jeff also dusted off his Wii to play it and the two of them have plenty of praise for the game to get the show started. Xav also returns to round out the rest of the cast joining Garnett this week. He's been adventuring in Skyrim and rediscovering Halo, in the ten year anniversary HD remake. With the momentous time on everyone's mind, we look back at the original Xbox, and lest we be remiss, Billy makes sure we remember the GameCube as well as it too turns ten. Along the way we also talk about how the big games of October fared at the register, which of them now reigns supreme online, and more before wrapping it up with Finishing Moves and weekly football tailgate.

If they aren't on or willing to jump on, I pass on multiplayer more often, and play something else. The experience with friends online is just as fun, as you are still in a group chat, still exchanging comments and verbal jabs like you would in the same room. It also saves me the sore upper arm from everytime a buddy would punch me for every time I killed him in Goldeneye. Playing with friends in a party chat certainly makes a match that I'm struggling in a lot more enjoyable for at least myself.

In terms of multiplayer gaming with strangers, the fact that you're not all in the same room together, means that players are effectively hiding behind their gamertags, and a nastier part of their personality is far more likely to come through.
The only solution I've found is to set my XBox Live dashboard settings to mute everyone apart from friends, then the other players just become decent bots!
