Rarely have we seen the addictive effects of gaming take hold so quickly as they have with our new co-op student who we will refer to as C Lowe.

Command & Conquer: Renegade has consumed his mind and it’s all he thinks about day in and day out. His will is strong but he must now contend with 5 seasoned veterans who have not only worked up a nasty bag of strategic maneuvers but also played the maps time and time again. The most recent smackdown was as follows: Mike G and I took on C Lowe 2-to-1. To make things fair, we gave C Lowe 20,000 credits and gave ourselves zero. Mike and I launched our footsoldier attack quickly, placing bombs in his base and giving the finger to his Hand of Nod as we shot out its window panes. After gaining enough credits to build vehicles, we launched an air assault which involved flying together to C Lowe’s base, waiting for him to build a helicopter, stealing said helicopter and flying it back to our “motor pool”. This happened more than once…

We’ve Got More Rides Than Six Flags

The round ended with C Lowe clean out of money from building aircraft and with TEAM ALLSTON flossin’ like Funk Master Flex. Kudos to you, C Lowe, for spending credits at an unprecedented pace and for seeing it through to the end.
