Luxor 2

Sega Superstar tennis (whatever it's called)

Feeding Frenzy

is what I'm working on until Thursday night!

Luxor 2.... :angry: I just finished playing that game for good so that I could bring balance back to my gamerscore. Thanks the OCD in me, I couldn't accept a score that didn't end in 0 or 5.

It's sad, I bought puzzle fighter just because it had a 7 point achievement for the same reason. OCD FTW!

[DR3AMxCATCHER]

0 and 5's are the best. I will finally get unlazy and get it back to even sometime today or tomorrow night.

:rofl: that's great. That's worse than me!

gotta say both Fallout 3 and Far Cry 2, although very enjoyable games, are lousy for achieves...oh well, i may not make 30K as planned by the end of the year. let's see if 28K is possible. any news from other people?

With Mirrors Edge, World at War, L4D, Gears and a few others, you'll make it. I don't know how many of those you plan to play, but I expect to be well on my way to 50k by the end of the year. I'll make my "40K by 12/1" goal very easily.

[neoadorable]

welcome, Andrew, and thanks for joining the club.

rookas, i thank you for the encouragement, let's hope you're right. of those you mentioned, only L4D isn't on the list...yet. tuesday should be the last batch for me...COD, Mirror's Edge, Red Alert 3. so you're thinking 50K for you by year end? wow, ambitious, i like!

and congrats to DM for finally making 12K. i think last time he turned a digit we were still talking about Bioshock.

It probably was yeah lol. I have a pile of games to get through since then :/ and not enough time..

[MightyJordan]

Good to see this has been going strong for over 2 years now! I'm glad I'm still in the top ten, but I've dropped down to 6th now. :(

[Guest]

I've Gears 2, Fable 2 and Fallout 3 to play through, as well as countless over titles that have built up over the past year.

Can anyone spare me some free time?

+1

I'm so gutted I haven't got into Fable 2 more :(

[Rookas]

No, that's not happening. I'll be on my way to 50, but I don't expect more than 43K tops but the end of December.

I just noticed that I moved up a spot, #7 now!

Just joined, rank 79 just behind DM in 78 :p

How's the view back there ;) :p

[neoadorable]

great hearing from you Jordan, you should post and help rally the troops more often. and welcome to Brad, although not sure about that avatar...oh well, sack boy's pretty cute. but that name...

time is always against us. there's never enough and we're always running out. so can't help you with that jonny - just think of it like this, in a hundred years, our collective gamin days will be long over :cry:

forget that and just focus on all these great titles we have here. like i told munky, this is a freakin gamegasm.

so no matter how many points you contribute, it's all good - the holidays are almost upon us!

[Vykranth]

Jesus, I am completely smashed, I spent the entire week-end playing Gears of War 2 but I crawled back to 13th

The worst thing about that I ordered GoW2 from Amazon.co.uk because I prefer to play my game in English (and I really hate those French traductions made by school-boys and 3rd rate voice actors).

It turns out that UPS has somehow lost the package or it fell from the truck.

On Saturday, I bought a game from a local store and it turned out that the English track is also on the dvd sold in France, so no need to bother ordering from the UK and the game is almost welded in the drive.

Still, I am so going Hammer of Dawn Style on UPS butts.

Gosh, I really need conselling.

[neoadorable]

no counseling needed my friend, you're entitled to your fun, this is the festive season after all. congrats on 33K btw, and didn't know the French versions were done by schoolboys heh heh.

anyhoo, 13th place is pretty good - look at me, stuck there below neyo, that never-poster. arrrggghh.

[Glorious]

Mirror's Edge seems to be good for achieves. If I can only work out where to do some of the combo move ones hehe.

[neoadorable]

true, the chievos come in fast for this one, at least the level ones. it's also a decent game, although a bit on the tough side.

[Glorious]

Yeah, I've gotten stuck a couple of times so far. But it's quite fun finding your own way around. :)

[neoadorable]

seriously, i was this close to giving up on it - it's so trial and error, you need to do jumps fifty times before you get them right...but it's a gorgeous game anyway.

have to say this is the most gaming bliss i can recall - there's so much to enjoy, i'm pretty sure we'll still be playing all this come Easter.

At least, I doubt I'll even get to Far Cry 2 by then. I've still got Mirrors Edge and Left 4 Dead to pick up, and gamefly finally shipped Dead Space today. My PS3 is getting ignored right now, and I recently bought 3 new games for it that I haven't played yet. I've probably spent around $300 in the last month on games. I don't know why I have to buy them when they're new when I know I won't have time to play them all, just a compulsion I guess.

I remember everyone saying that the 2007 lineup could not be topped, but personally I think 2008 has been a much better year all round. There's just so much to play.

[neoadorable]

jonny the jury is still out on 2007 vs 2008. i think it's just that this time it's over a shorter span - pretty much everything came out mid Oct to mid Nov whereas last year it took four months. however, for us Gears 2 is a deciding factor which wasn't there a year ago, while for those with the other console Resistance 2 fills that niche.

Rookas, why are you feeling conscious of this? it's not like you're buying heroin off a pusher, they're totally legit entertainment products. don't feel bad, you're not addicted, it's called being a hobbyist and it's a good thing. at least we're passionate about something.
