that was quick slane! first that one dies, then you get an Elite right away. congrats.

thanks for the wishes remy and jianbing, will be taking my 360. lots of Americans there so US versions are not that hard to come by, but are much more expensive than here.

xiong di would be like brother bear or something jianbing, you mean shundi. ge ge is just little brother, more a familial term. not for your buddies. but you can call me da ge if you want!

that's weird about Wolfenstein jianbing, it saves quite regularly. but then it's only software.

nik, you indeed should get working on that gamerscore. i'm not one to preach tho, won't be adding anything myself any time soon.

knew you were talking about Up...Prototype is anything but easy. i loved/hated that game, it was great but the boss fights were infuriating so i gave up. the story was amazing but collecting it piece by piece was so random and frustrating so i gave up etc etc. but being in NYC for the week makes me gigle whenever i drive by sights that they tried to capture in the game, they did a pretty good job of it.

Got a nice 710 points out of Dirt 2, might go for some more (winning on every event) if I find the time/courage to do this :p Also got Viking: Battle for Asgard again for which I need only one more ach. for the 1000/1000 so I'll give that another spin. that would make my third 100% completed game. :D

Almost done Wolfenstien. Have to say, it's actually pretty decent. I was expecting it to be terrible based on what a lot of people here said, but I'm having fun with it. Not as good as RTCW of course, but it's well worth a play. Can't comment of the supposedly terrible MP though as my live account is currently suspended :p

Lost: Via Domus is in the mail courtesy of Gamefly. That'll be another 2-3 hour game for the full thousand.

Gotta say Prototype is one sick game. Think the movement/controls are a bit sucky but once you adjust it's all in all not to bad. Only 3(4) achievements are difficult with the rest just being time consuming. Fairly certain I can get to the 900 mark within the week. The Au/Pt (achieve gold and platinum on all events) seem to be the hardest to me (control issues). Beating the game on hard is defeintly going to be challenging but probally can be done in under 10 hours if you don't do anything else. And then a third playthrough on easy to beat the game without dying (screwed it up on the current playthrough). Fun game. Anyone who hasn't played it should, it's really good.

I liked it, but I found the bosses too tough. I eventually gave up on it.

>_< finished Brutal Legend on normal difficulty but halfway through I changed the subtitle settings and I accidentally also moved the difficulty to gentle. But I changed it back to normal before exiting the menu, now I still only got the achievement for gentle :( lame.

    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft offered a look at the upcoming Halo: Combat Evolved remake at the Xbox Games Showcase today. The Halo Studios-developed title is not only getting a fully remade campaign, but also new content in the form of a fresh story arc featuring Sgt. Johnson. Fans don't have to wait long, either, as Halo: Campaign Evolved is releasing next month. The new content joining the original campaign consists of three new missions that have the name "Operation: METEORITE" attached to the full project. Aside from ground-based combat, space missions are also included here. These prequel missions will take players to events set before the original campaign, where the Master Chief and Sgt. Johnson duo team up for a clandestine UNSC operation aboard a Covenant research vessel. The studio says that the story for these missions was written in collaboration with award-winning sci-fi author Troy Denning. "Operation: METEORITE gives players a chance to expand their experience with new locations, new enemy variants, more weapons from across the Halo series, and new ways to play within the Halo sandbox, all while getting to spend more time with beloved characters and witness a new event that adds to the legacy of their heroic history," adds Halo Studios. Today's new trailer showed off the game in action, including the new missions. Catch it below. Halo Campaign Evolved is coming out on July 28, 2026. It will be available across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 price tag. A digital premium edition will also be available for $69.99, offering five days of early access, extra in-game skins, and a digital art collection. A $199.99 physical Collector's Edition is also incoming, bringing a Master Chief statue, a Cortana chip, a Steelbook case, and more.
    • To give context to everybody, I bought about 2 sets of RAM, ddr4, 3200, 64 gb, 2 years ago. It costed me 150 usd for each set. If you buy RAM now you only incentivate companies to sell you expensive stuff, as Nvidia did.
    • 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.
