A game, usually in RTS games, in which real-life players are pitted against more, less or an even amount of computer-controlled players.
Usually this involves playing the maximum amount of allied human players vs. one enemy computer because the computer is easy to kill when outnumbered. Unfortunately, during these kinds of games, BackStabbers exist, who will wait until the computer is dead, look unsuspicious and then attack the remaining players with a huge force, all under the players' noses.
"I destroyed a comp in a Comp Stomp last night."
"That unsuspicious-looking backstabber killed us all after we killed the computer!"

A great game made by Bungie for the Xbox. It was so hyped fans were expecting a life-changing experience and an ascension to the higher level of gaming. Many fans were sad when they found Halo 2 wasn't God's gift of gaming goodness, and Halo 2 was looked at as an over-rated game by many. Sadly, it was not looked upon as the great game it was by normal gamers, but Xbox fans see it as phenonmenal. They're right. The game sold way, way more than any other game ever. (That includes GTA: San Andreas.) And it made Microsoft 125 million dollar.
Guy: Halo 2 sucks! It's sooo over-rated! Wah, wah, wah!
Xbox Fan: Over 150,000 people disagree with you, idiot.

The sequel to the game in which you played as some nerdy scientist with a crowbar. Now, in Half-Life 2, you're a badass nerd scientist with a crowbar. It promises revolutionary graphics, physics engine, characters, storyline and quite frankly everything else. It will be an amazing game without a doubt.

An online mod of Half-Life (and a newer, graphical-focused version being a mod of the Half-Life sequel, Half-Life 2) which is about as addictive as every drug combined to the average PC gamer. It is also known to be the one game that has the ability to convert one hardcore console gamer into a full-time PC gamer within a few hours of play due to its sheer addictiveness.
The game pits Counter-Terrorists against Terrorists in a tactical shooter environment, though nowadays it is seen by the average gamer more as a pure shooter game with a simple goal: kill your opponents, then work as a team. Many see the community as a bad thing because of this. They also are stereotyped to use numbers in every sentence, a.k.a 1337 speak.
To this day, Counter-Strike alone has generated more Internet traffic than the entire country of Italy.
Steve: Thanks for getting me into Counter-Strike, Andy. Now I'll never be able to pick up Halo 2 again!
Andy: N0w 1t pwns j00r s0le.
Steve 10 Years Later: CS is tearing my life apart -- but I love every minute of it.

(Also known as H and P.) Hunting and Pecking refers to somebody who is extremely slow at typing. The way H and P-ers type is searching the keyboard row by row finding the key to press, then hitting that key and repeating the process. Some people such as myself find this extremely irritating because you just would like to get up, punch the typer in the head, sit down and began typing at 1000+ words a minute.
Nerd: Type faster...please type faster or I'll wound you!
Typer: Click...Click...Click...
Nerd: AGGHHHH!!!!

Microsoft's online gaming service for their console system the "Xbox." Living up to it's title "the best online gaming service," Xbox Live offers a variety of games including Counter Strike, Rainbow Six 3 and Halo 2. It offers clan services, a friends list, messaging system, a voice-headset communicator, online alerts and more. You can play with anyone from just about anywhere around the world.
It does have it's ups and downs. There are some Xbox Live gamers who act immaturely, but they can easily be overlooked. Thanks to the muting system, you can mute that kid who sings everytime he talks. (Then again, you can just tell him to shut up.) Xbox Live really allows Xbox owners to get the most out of their games.
Joe: I just killed you on Halo 2 last night. Do you know what that means, Daniel?
Daniel: Yes, a deal is a deal, and if it must be so then I will put on a ballerina's tu-tu and sing twinkle-twinkle little star into my webcam. Then I will send the video to everybody I know thus putting me in the middle of a humilation frenzy.
