Pre-purchased, first game ever was in biotic's solo, jizzed over everything with my shotgun on easy... went online for the first time... got completely destroyed on office :<
Also when they first discovered how to break the 6 player server limit... and before it got down to a sensible 20-30 player's only, i remember this specific server had a cap of 122 player's all filled out... it was intense, if you died, you'd be sitting there waiting around an hour n 20 mins (No exageration) to get back in xD and you didnt wanna leave cause it was so popular it'd be full for hour's to come, and then the patriarch finaly showed it's face, and managed to wipe out.. 122, sodding, player's.. in about 15 minutes xD, with each player increasing pat's health / strengh, he was literally in-destructable... after a good day's gaming on that server, never saw it again :\
Im done rambling >.<
