yeah slane, he's right, that's almost impossible from what i figure. you can't get them all in one go.

and nik, if you want some extra points get your hands on dark sector - OK game, by now really cheap and you'll get around 400 points guaranteed just from the single player...

[Slane]

@Neo:

It is. Make a new save file at 7, 13, 19. Go kill a bunch of towns (you need to play as good) till you hit neutral. Save on that new file you just created. So you would have one file where you were good but freshly 7 and another where you were neutral and how ever much XP it took ya to get to neutral. Go do Knock-Knock's XP glitch or turn in a quests to make you level. Re-load the neutral save (if you have the XP room) keep killing towns until you get bad karma. Do XP glitch/quest turn in till you level. Re-load the first save where you were good and level like normal.

Then the quest you receieve at paradise falls. Save, do it w/o saving. Re-load save and just keep in your log but never do it to snag that achievement.

The rest just require making sure you don't go area X before you were suppose to, so you don't skip anything.

But Alas due to those screw ups and friend leaving Halo Wars at my house the whole 1k in a week didn't work. :( Think I managed almost 500, not sure.

I finally managed to get my hands on Resident Evil 5 for a week or so. Planning on ploughing through the campaign a couple of times.

[DR3AMxCATCHER]

Added like 100 or more GS yesterday thanks to the Snowblind mappack.

[NikBrooks]

Im just finishing Resident Evil on Veteren when I get home from work, then me and a mate are guna try Pro. Then Ill hunt down a few more of the achivments.

Oh and I got a nice 10G for getting to rank 5 on Gears 2 :p

[neoadorable]

ynnoj, keep me posted on RE5, thinking of getting it for the visuals because honestly i can't stand Capcom's "if it ain't insanely hard it ain't a game" attitude.

slane - that sounds like a lot of work! might as well get a couple other games and get 200-300 points out of each in the time that'll take!

nik, are you still waiting to get on the leaderboard? because i think someone quit, we're down to 249 members again.

Not to bad. It would have been alot easier then having to play a new game once I snag the rest. And besides I like going for full thousand in game's not getting points to get me to X milestone. Rather have 30K points with 30 games played then 30K points with 100+ games played. But that's me. :)

Anyways nearly there, friend left Halo Wars over and I'm totally glad this wasn't done by Bungie and more an Ensemble game. It's awesome.

Yeah might be nice :) It could motivate me to get that little extra GS and bump me up the table :p

To be honest, I don't think it's a particularly difficult game. At least that's the impression I'm getting from the stages I've done so far.

The controls are annoyingly awkward though. It just doesn't feel natural to me and as I've said numerous times, it's a poorly implemented way to introduce tension into the game. Because lets face it, RE5 isn't scary in the slightest.

Good game though ;)

[GameOverRob]

Yeah good game but seriously a screaming two year old child is more scary than RE5!

[neoadorable]

knew you were aiming for 1000's rather than total pointage...well, in that case you don't have a choice, you need to max each game you get your hands on. part of the joy of this hobby, it's got plenty of ways to go about it.

nik - just drop PabUK a line, he'll take care of you.

thanks for the RE5 comments all. Maybe i'll give it a go later, not sure - the demo was truly offputting. Jonny, are you playing it on normal? I mean the demo, again, was really hard. That dude with the sledgehammer...i don't have the patience.

It's not hard once you play the game and realize what you have to do. I thought the demo was killer hard, but the game itself isn't too bad. On co-op it can be pretty easy. In single player your partner won't stop wasting ammo and then expects you to give her some of yours!

I'm running through on Normal first, yes. It's definitely meant to be played cooperatively, so give me a shout if you pick it up :)

[neoadorable]

looking more and more like i'll give RE5 its fair chance...will look you up on that offer ynnoj.

You can hit me up as well, I don't really like the "friends" on my list that have the game. Waiting for someone who's not a complete moron to get it. Perhaps it's time to spring clean my friends list.

[NikBrooks]

RES isnt that hard. I played through it on normal on Co-op and we never got stuck for more than a few minutes. The last chapter was obviously the hardest.

Im upto chapter 6-2 now on my own in Veteren. But I think the unlimited ammo helped alot!

[GameOverRob]

The Savanna Level on professional is insanely hard! I swear the boss at the end is almost impossible!

I've sent you a friend request ;)

[Rookas]

I've sent you a friend request ;)

Cool, accepted. RE5 soon I hope!

[GameOverRob]

Resident Evil 5 - Just finished getting S ratings for every chapter, so I've unlocked the figurines acheivement. Only veteran and Pro to get now, and I'm about halfway thru my campaign on pro.

[neoadorable]

sounds like a lot of work...that game is all graphics to me. is the story any good at least?

meanwhile, i've quietly added some 2500 points in two weeks...muhahahahahaha.

[Guest]

Hit 11,000 with a lot of games still to play.

[ThePokedPenguin]

Well i blasted thru 5000 then 6000 and i havent even played RE5 much either

[Mathachew Veteran]

Another 1000 down thanks to Fallout 3. I'm surprised I spent so much time playing the game. Now I'm debating on getting the expansions... $30 more for a game (including the 3rd one) that costs more than that, don't know if I can justify it.

Also want to note that I got all 1000 on my first play through. I did have to replay several of the main quests to get back to Raven Rock so that I could collect the bobblehead. I was none too pleased when I realized I reached a point of no return in that area.

i applaud the dedication, for sure. you're making good progress.
