I feel so left out. I can't believe it's been almost 2 months since I last played. Yeah, it took me over a week to ship my 360 off after receiving the packaging, but c'mon Microsoft! They've got me looking like a big slacker.

Jeez Neo, you've almost caught me. I can't believe you guys hit 60k so easily. Nice work!

sleep, don't worry, we'll handle it from here. Hmm maybe i should get COD4 and slap on some achievements too. I got about 2200 total GS i havne't unlocked yet from the 3 free games i got. Marvel Ultimate and Forza 2 and that free Live is 5ive Arcade they gave away. i See it's the top 5 most played from our bunch so maybe i should fire it up and see if i can get some achievements from it too.

Carcassone? It's actually a fun game, nothing I would play in the long run, but the achievements are really easy to get, just one that's time consuming (5000 points all games combined). Other than that I got all of them in a few hours of gameplay, and should only be 10-15 games away from 5k since I'm averaging 110 points per game.

Forza 2, you can get 970 withint 40-60 hours of gameplay, and probally another 40-60 to get the 1 million online credits (unless you boost which is still hours). Haven't played Marvel Ultimate though.

vyk, take five and then back over the edge, soldier, we're running straight at those MG's.

COD4 is OK for achieves, i'm just getting tired of looking for collectibles in every game now...

dnast...you mean to tell me they still haven't sent you a new machine?@ that's impossible, i thought you had a new one last month or something!

and three five (sorry i'll always think of you as three five...) - forget about Forza it's a pain in the butt to get points out of that one. play it for the great game it is, not the points. i put like 40 hours into it and still only 250GS! other than that, i think it's time you bought/rented more games. what kind of patriot are you anyway? :ermm:

Nah, I got a new one during the summer and the disc drive went bad on me the day after Halo 3 came out. MS is looking into it now so hopefully I can still get a few achievements before we reach our milestone.

@Dave MB: A corrupted profile shouldn't mess up your game saves. My profile was corrupted once and all of my saves were still there after I fixed it.

CoD4's single player is so intense and captivating that I was exhausted after completing it.

Then I tried the Veteran mode and the game took me, slapped me silly for 10 minutes and I have never get some much spanking.

It's like playing Halo 3 with Raven Shield dificulty.

As far as Carcassonne is concerned, it's really my favorite XBLA game: a lot of my friends that played UNO have downloaded it and they are really enjoying it.

If only MS would add the extension of 24 cards to the game, that would be totally awesome. 4 players game with 65 cards is very short.

Some of them were still there but Forza, Sega Rally and Vegas saves all went.

slane that's like 60 hours.

vyk, the SP for COD4 was a big let down for me. on normal it was OK but kinda tepid. however, the story was good and the two POV scenes (Fulani and Jackson) were basically groundbreaking in games.

anyway, haven't gamed since sunday and won't be able to do any gaming till saturday night...already suffering from hallucination, the shakes and explosive rear end discharge.

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.

    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
