It started out as a small group of friends holding Halo LAN parties and posting to Bungie.net’s 7th Column.  Today it’s grown into it’s a collection of websites and community.  We game, we hang, and we ramble.  We’ve been referenced by game studios and developers, industry news, and most often, ourselves.

Started: 2002
Headquarted: Huntsville, Alabama

One of Left 4 Dead’s first communities.  Definately the first dedicated server resource complete with community-made map and map packs for download and distribution.  Pioneer of the L4D dedicated server community.  Now pretty much strangled to death by lack of support from Value/EA.  Cummon guys. Gamers want dedicated servers.  Not restricted matchmaking.

First website for Microsoft Game Studios first crossplatform video game.  We were in the early, like waaaaay early, beta test for this game.  And we followed it from cradle to, well, grave.  Was such a sweet game.  Not many people know it was in fact a mod of Bungie’s Halo 1 engine.  But I digress.

This blog was there from the beginning and still tracks any Shadowrun first person shooter movements.  Was posts and guides were referenced by MS and FASA.  Shadowrun 2 gonna happen any time soon?  We don’t know.  ;)
