Woot I got me a job. So after I finished paying off the 12 grand I owe (lol not) I can start with newer games. Nah, just need to work for a month or so and see what kind of money I make (restaurant business, working for tips :( ) and I'll start getting my score up.

Currently playing Two Worlds, trying to finish that out, nearly got all the non-main story achievements.

way to go slane - congrats on the new job! hope it goes well.

i'll think about Prey...it may work for me, maybe not, honestly not sure if i feel like playing it now. told ya i was a hypocrite!

good going ynnoj, that's pretty good. maybe you;ll make 10K before the 720 comes out ;)

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the Gears of War 2 Gods, and to the Achievements for which it stands: one achievement under love, indivisible, With Liberty and Justice for all.

Gotta say due to the Horde gametype and the achievements, I might pick this up and play it.

Gears of War is the franchise of the Xbox console. Halo is not the king anymore. I can't believe no one would pick this game up unless you get motion sickness.

Personally thought Gears had a brillant campaing, but everything else sucked. With the changes to MP, and the fact that campaign will still be solid and improve, it makes it more intriguing to me. I've gave both Gears and Halo there shots, but each disappointed me on the 360. Halo 3 just failed in all areas, spare easy achievements (and now they going to make me play more to get 'em all), Gears succeded my expectation for a SP experience (until Mass Effect), but the MP was just horrid, IMO of course.

Gears of War 2 with the continue success of the SP, and revamp MP, including a sexy kill-or-be-killed (horde) gametype sounds pure sexy.

there's no doubt we're all getting Gears 2. and slane, Halo 3 sucked? comon what are you PMSing or something, it wasn't like that at all! i loved that game, and i'm no Halo fanatic. have great memories from fall of last year...oh the nostalgia.

meanwhile, we need to start planning to play together - COD5, Gears 2 and Far Cry 2 come to mind. it's time to take the I out of TEAM, people, and get with it /self appointed motivational speaker role.

Sign me up, i'm always looking for good people to game with. I'll be getting Fable 2, GoW2, CoD5, FC2 and filing bankruptcy by Christmas. I've been buying the PS3 versions of multi-plat games lately, but it's time to start giving my 360 a bit more love, my gamerscore hasn't budged for weeks. Feel free to send me friend requests if you guys want to game.

Left 4 Dead!

I keep forgetting about that one, that's a definite purchase as well. We definitely need to team up for that one.

Edited by Rookas

good hearing from you rookas, and sure thing, i'll coordinate the MP sessions from here as best i can.

will overlook your affiliation with that other machine, as well...

and yes, got like ten titles to buy before thanksgiving alone, paying cash. otherwise some more banks will fail.

My score'll be increasin, with all these games soon releasin'. I'm number 8 at this time, but up the boards i will climb. With Fallout and Fable, you best believe I am able. Now I'm not egotistical, but I'm coming for ya Mistical!

edit: I had another look, don't worry about Rook. Your score's much too high, I'm not even gonna try. I'm happy in eighth, your lead is quite safe.

whoa what did i miss, a small dosage of postin bliss? now lecturing you fools seems so crass, i must come across like some sort of azz. great input from rookas and slane but this rhyming nonesense will eventually drive us insane.

so better cut this and hope for the best, coz my scoring lately cant keep up with the rest. am proud managed Bourne on assassin, but it's only 100G, no great cause for spazzin.

ok almost at the bridge now Slim...check you peeps later, but a rhyme from Vyk...it's my dream!

Nice edit. :) Hehe. It will get even higher now. I was busy a lot of September and most of the beginning of this month. Playing Fable 2 right now, great game by the way but looking at achievements, most seem quite easy.

    • KillerPDF 1.4.2 by Razvan Serea KillerPDF is a lightweight, portable PDF editor for Windows built for users who want full control without subscriptions, installers, or telemetry. It runs as a single executable, making it ideal for USB use and field work. You can view PDFs with smooth PDFium rendering, navigate quickly with thumbnails, zoom, and shortcuts, and reorganize pages using drag-and-drop. It supports merging multiple PDFs, splitting documents, and extracting selected pages. KillerPDF also allows inline text editing with font matching to preserve the original layout, plus annotations like text boxes, freehand drawing, highlights, and reusable signatures. You can search full text, copy content easily, and print documents with flattened annotations. Designed as a free and open alternative to bloated PDF tools, it works fully offline on Windows 10/11 x64. No runtimes install. Everything needed is inside the EXE (targets .NET Framework 4.8, which ships with every supported Windows release). KillerPDF key features: High-quality PDF rendering via PDFium Edit PDF text inline (double-click to modify text) Page thumbnails and fast navigation with zoom and shortcuts Merge multiple PDFs into one Split PDFs and extract selected pages Drag-and-drop page reordering Font matching to preserve original document appearance Text boxes for notes Freehand drawing tools Highlight overlays with adjustable color, size, opacity Undo actions and clear per-page annotations Create, draw, and save reusable signatures Click-to-place signatures anywhere Full-text search with highlighted results Drag-select or Ctrl+A to copy text Print with annotations flattened Portable single-file app (~10 MB) No installer, no admin rights required No account, no telemetry KillerPDF 1.4.2 changelog: What's new PDF form filling. Interactive PDF forms now render their fields (text inputs, checkboxes, radio buttons) as live controls. Fill them in directly and save — field values are written back into the PDF. PDF outline (bookmark) navigation. A new OUTLINES tab in the sidebar displays the document's bookmark tree. Click any entry to jump to that page. The sidebar auto-fits its width to the longest entry on open and can be dragged wider; switching back to PAGES snaps to the pages-mode width. Fixed Page rotation no longer reverts after saving. Rotations applied via the sidebar context menu now persist correctly through the save pipeline. Copied text words were out of order on PDFs where glyphs are stored in non-reading order (Issue #66). Text extraction now sorts words by position and uses a dynamic line-grouping threshold so both drag-select and Select All produce correctly ordered output. PDFs with malformed or non-standard XRef tables now open in read-only mode instead of showing "Invalid entry in XRef table" and failing entirely.

    • "...a low price of just $340..." I don't think it means what you think it means.

    • The very fact that a TPM (v2.0 specifically which is part of the issue I suspect) is now a baseline for any supported Windows installation will naturally mean other vendors will start to leverage it as they know it'll be there. It's called progress, and it's always been the way. A TPM isn't a windows thing, it's just a module designed to securely store keys. Secure boot isn't a Windows thing (although MS are the TCA as I recall hence the upheaval this year as the 2011 certs expire), it's just a way to verify a bootloader is signed. Windows simply leverages them.
    • It's a local account with the ability to reset a password at a very base level. I really don't get the issue that gets whipped up around it But you do you
