Well since this bad boy got revived, I guess I might as well share my experience with Big Daddy Annual. :rolleyes
One thing you've gotta understand, I actually can't play on Live at my house becasue of my satellite internet. Therefore, when I went on vacation this summer, and had a fast internet connection, I played for 7 days straight. Finally leveled up to a Captain and got a buttload of achievements. :coolThe funny part is, on the last day of my vacation, I was lucky enough to play enough grifball to get the Lightswitch achievement. So I figured, Why not try to get Annual as well? Dear Lord Jesus was that a mistake. I met a guy who didn't have it, and was nice enough to help me out. So when I found one other guy to play, we were still a man short. So we end up picking up this kid who was clearly not right in the head. We got all the way to the ghost part after 3 hours of nothing but frustration. Then all of a sudden when we're about to get to a critical checkpoint, this kid decides to jump off his ghost for what he calls, "Dramatic effect". Needless to say we were pretty pissed. So then after another hour of falling into holes, the game lags out on us. 4 hours wasted. Then my friend Lumpy The Hippo, who was just about the nicest guy I've ever met, decides to keep helping me. So we find another guy, and start over. One thing leads to the next, and we wind up playing for another 4 hours.
I have never been more excited to hear those melodic beeps in my entire life. 8 freaking hours baby. I doubt anybody can beat that. :lol
P.S. If anybody happens to know Lumpy The Hippo, be sure to let him know how much CRANKdatMoNkEy loves him.
