Our "new" friends at 360gamer

I have just had a e-mail from the chaps at "360GAMER" asking if we wanted to be in there mag, they asked for a bit about the CODDAY clan so here it is.

CODDAY CLAN
www.callofdutyday.blogspot.com


Founder members:

PAWNKING (THE BOSS)
MGB Dude (THE TALENTED ONE)
footfall (THE KEEPER OF THE PEACE)

Number of members
12

A quick history of the clan
We all got together through Xbox Live playing Burnout originally in 2005 and then numbers grew as we all started to play C.O.D 3. PAWNK1NG suggested a get together at WARFIGHTERS.CO.UK to celebrate his birthday in June 2007, where we all met in person for the first time The actual number of regular players in “the clan” is about 6 as some of the guys do not have an Xbox but are our ‘real’ friends and they wanted to join in.

The games we play regularly
Call of Duty 3, call of duty 2, G.R.A.W , G.R.A.W 2, Rainbow 6, Test Drive, Burnout Revenge, Forza & Crackdown

The clan philosophy
“Gaming is not your job, stop taking it so seriously, have fun and play games like you did when you were a kid” “gamerscore and achievement monkeys not welcome”

Whether you are recruiting and what you look for in members.
More the merrier, as long as they share our philosophy, and more impotantly, actually use the headset to talk, we tend to kick players who don’t chat - it should be a social friendly thing.

A couple of paragraphs from two members on your opinions of Gamerscore, the best game to play on Live and the last thing you downloaded from the Marketplace.

Its fun sometimes trying to get that one achievement or nuging up the gamerscore, but 99% of the time to me its just having fun and getting chance to play with old and new friends.the best game on live mmm that’s easy Call of Duty 3, you have a great game, lots of people ready to try and kill you, and you meet lots of new friends. The last things I downloaded from live was Blue Dragon, maps for COD and halo beta.

Gamertag: MGB DUDE
Gamerscore and achievements mean very little to me, one of our guys has a score of about 97 and always kicks arse! I’m more interested in simply enjoying the games, can’t really be bothered to ‘compete’ with strangers for bragging rights demonstrating how little time I spend with my family! Our favourite game on Live is without a doubt Call of Duty, big lobbys, great social game with a brilliant set of options, it is also a game which you can ‘break the rules’. We do quite a bit of Burnout style destructive racing on the COD maps with the jeeps, with one person standing on a high point with a rocket launcher trying to take out the other ‘racers’. The last things I downloaded from the marketplace was the demo for Ace Combat 6, more maps for R6, and Missile Command (the first video game I ever played).

Also if you could provide your Logo in the highest res format possible and a recent photo of some of the members that would be great.
Any graphics and photos of us can be “stolen” from our blog at www.callofdutyday.blogspot.comyou will find some great group shots of us at the warfighters event, as featured in the current issue of Official Xbox Magazine on page 38 (also featured on our blog).

let me know what you all think!!!!!!!!!!!!!
