The Last Story

i'm up for the voice chat but nope.jpg to marathon it LOL

edit: though i'd prefer teamspeak over skype, not a fan really. i have a teamspeak server if needed 

What is teamspeak? If its free and easy to use I'm willing to give it a shot.

I couldn't Skype unless there's a phone app for it. My comps in my room and our only Tv is in our living room.

Teamspeak is a popular voice chat service.  It isn't free but you do get your own server dedicated to voice chat.  http://www.teamspeak3.com...Y=google_its3_teamspeak-s

If we can coordinate a skype call across various time zones that suits people's schedules, skyping while playing would be awesome.

Otherwise, I suggest we just play up to a predetermined cut-off point then on the discussion date get on skype, the forum, or a chat room and talk about our experiences.

There is the RFGeneration Chat Room, you know... it's IRC, so you guys can chat while playing too. You can even mix/match, where IRC and Skype/Teamspeak are used. There's also Ventrilo for another option.

to clarify, it's free on the client side. it only costs to rent a server, which like i said i do have one already . it's really simple to use and a small lightweight program to download/run. it's specifically intended for people to use while gaming, just like Ventrillo.

edit: i just remembered my server is only a 10 person max (you pay per user slot). so it's an option with less than 10 people, but otherwise skype will have to be it. or the RFG chat like shadow said, but i much prefer voice chat while gaming, i'd rather not have to be keeping an eye on a text chat. not to mention my keyboard would be too far from my tv whereas my headset has extension cables so i could voice chat much more easily

I'm up for trying it out if others are as well.

Whether we end up going to Teamspeak or Skype would kind of equipment is needed?

I've used Skype before to chat with distant relatives, but I only use the built-in camera and microphone on my laptop. It seems like I have to get some gear for this.

If you've got a Guitar Hero/Rockband mic around the house those work good with Skype and any old pair of headphones. You'll just need to figure out a way to mount the mic close enough to your face. I use a camera tripod and just wrap the extra cord around it to keep it there. Your built in mic will work too if you dont have anything better, just plug in some headphones to reduce the extra noise coming into it.

ya the most important thing for the sanity of everyone else listening is to use headphones, not speakers...hearing your own voice echo through someone else gets annoying really fast.

I know that problem all too well. After some rummaging around the house I found a Skype compatible USB headset.

I'm ready to rock!

Totally awesome game, my favourite Wii title. What chapters people play will be interesting. Having only played it once it'll be interesting to hear about what quests and decisions people make since the game isn't entirely linear and each side quest also gets its own chapter number.

Sounds like it might get messy in here. Can't wait!

[techwizard]

this should be fun! just let me know if anyone wants to try my teamspeak server instead of skype and i'll pm the info to whoever needs it. if everyone prefers skype that's fine though, i'll go with whatever most will be on.

Everyone pumped to tear open that cellophane tomorrow?

What's the game plan for the chat? I'll be free tomorrow before 4pm or after 10:30pm EST. The latter would be best for me because I won't be preoccupied with anything else.
