So tonight was the big uk.games.video.xbox farewell to the Xbox, what with the 360 coming along on Friday.

It was great fun.

It just wasn’t really very organised.

In fact, it consisted of just myself and asktoby killing each other in very nasty ways.

But it was still great fun.

Even though I lost. Heavily. 25-3 when we played shotguns, though I wasn’t so bad with sniper rifles or rocket launchers.

So, just the two of us, but it was actually really good fun.

Highlight of the evening: being thrown across the map by a rocket hit and hitting my chin on a wall. Doesn’t sound like much, but it looked very, very painful.
