Halo, CoD, Clans, etc


There's an interesting blog post over on the TTL Gunslingers website worth reading by any Halo fan. Xerxdeej made some really good observations about the effect CoD4 is having on most Halo groups and clans.

Really, though, this effect is the primary reason Xbox Gamers Inc (XGI) was created. Previously I had pushed to have RCG, a Halo group I belong to, expand into more of a clan role. After my efforts resulted in little to no change in the group dynamics, Dez1013 and I decided we needed to create an official clan in that we would not be tied to any one game title or franchise, but invite gamers from all games into the fold. With that goal in mind, I never intended on alienating members of RCG by doing this, but rather would invite any and all members to join both RCG and XGI. Have RCG for the custom Halo games and gamedays. XGI is here to support all your other games too. Call of Duty gameday? That's why XGI is here. Gears of War gameday? That's why XGI is here.
