Subject: Looking to play Marathon and Myth? For Carnage, Apply Within

Fac Fortia Et Patere

Hey, human beings. What better time could there be to join your fellow gamers here at For Carnage Apply Within for, well, carnage?

Well none, because ever since the Aleph One team released version 1.0 of the Aleph One engine and corresponding versions of the Marathon Trilogy, there seems to be a renewed interest in Bungie's classic titles. Chalk it up to Bungie's current darkness, a fond remembrance of years gone by, or whatever, but it's there.

How FCAW works is that every month, we switch our focus between the Marathon and Myth series. On Friday nights we play the game of the month. Plus, on Tuesday nights, we play a random Bungie game, and once a month (just to keep things fresh), a non-Bungie game. Past Tuesday Night Specials have included Marathon, Myth, Halo PC Custom Edition, Halo 2 via Xbox Connect, Halo 3, ODST, and Reach, and even Valve's Half-Life Deathmatch and Team Fortress 2.

Friday games begin at 9:00PM Eastern (8 CST, 7 MST, 6 PST) and Tuesday Night games begin at 8:00PM Eastern.

This month, our focus is on Marathon. In addition to that, we're holding the annual "For Carnage Apply Within Winter Olympics," a yearly tournament that consists of Marathon 2: Durandal (XBLA) and Marathon: Infinty (Aleph One) on the 28th, Halo 3 on the 29th, and Myth II: Soulblighter on the 30th.

As for how we gather outside of the group, we use Skype to communicate when playing on Mac/PC, with "matchmaking" for Aleph One Marathon and Myth ran on Mariusnet.

If you have any questions, contact either Atomsk A33 or Sardonic13.

Thanks, and See You Starside.

Want to play Bungie games old and new? For Carnage Apply Within

"Don't mistake your rank and number for superiority.

Only problem is that when I made that video we still played on Wednesdays, but now we play on Tuesdays. Guess I'll have to make another one.

For Carnage Apply Within - We played Marathon before Marathon was cool!

Keep it authentic...

For Carnage Apply Within is a great group! Myth and Marathon are older games so there is not many people playing them online anymore. It is harder to find people to play these games with nowadays. Joining FCAW is a great way to be assured you will get to play and enjoy these games with a great group of people. Also, experts on these games get harder to find every day, if you have a question about the story of an older Bungie game or how to get the game to work on your computer, look no farther than FCAW! The people there are very friendly and always willing to help. Lastly, the guys in this group have a great sense of humor and are just plain fun to be around!
