hey Rob, so how long exactly did you have Brink for? all of two days or something like that? must have been one excellent game... :laugh:

It is. :) Just not hard to 1k. I just haven't been bothered to finish up the maps on VS to snag that last one. And with LAN out now, it's gonna wait even longer.

full 1K on Portal 2? that i have to admire. nice one.

hey Jonny, BC2 SP? 2010 called, it would like to move on, please, if you don't mind. heh heh BTW whatever happened with your car, did you get a new one with the insurance claim? don't ask me why that came to mind now of all times! i'll prob start talking about your mono next :blink:

hey slane, what's the next big game for you, after your apparent love for Brink? i'm personally looking forward to FEAR3, everything i'll be playing on either the PS3 or PC...what the hell has become of me!

well, welcome to the thread, where have you been all this time? and there's no luck involved, just perseverence and consistency...just keep gaming if you enjoy it and that gamerscore will go up on its own. there's no magic or secret to it. of course there is the odd shortcut a la certain games we don't speak of around here, but those are by now ancient history. anyway, keep at it and that 5K will soon be behind you...oh the memories...5K gamerscore..the heady days of spring 2007...

yeah, harder for me to get achievements since i got no gold (saved up money to buy 3ds) im only a school student (actually grade 9), lol and one my friend's gamerscore was reset since he was modifying it, sucks to be him... I only got my xbox in october of last year...

yes, renting definitely helps. as for your friend, well, modding has its risks, he knew that. at any rate, the score will come with the games if you play consistently. you've only had your 360 for eight months or so, 5K is about right.

Working on LA Noire atm. Once I finish that, I'll go and finish that last cheevo in Brink. Then probally continue to work on Just Cause 2 and/or Phantasy Star. Finish both of 'em off before starting another game.

You should set up a rental account online if you can.

I get my games from the local library ($12 a year membership) unlimited take outs, the only games which I own are Forza 3, portal 2, Halo 3 and ODST and MX vs atv alive

He did know, he even got Gears of War 3 illegally, the flash drive thing... right now taking a small break from xbox to enjoy my 3DS :whistle:

yeah where is this so-called library? twelve bucks for unlimited rentals? is this a public library literally? some of them do game rentals, yes, but it's almost impossible to get the games you want on time. otherwise, i'm not sure what kind of deal you got going on over there...

Well, its the edmonton public library, in Edmonton Canada its free for people upto 17 or something (i am under that age) but my parents do pay..

its called the edmonton public library

yes it is possible to get the games, you can place holds, you can place as many holds as you want but only 5 gaming titles can be checked out at once...

Thats amazing value, do they have a good selection?

You could say that, they keep adding new titles, they have brink, portal 2 loads of kinect games about 180 titles, but remember, they keep on adding new titles like every second week or so...

Damn, the most I get from my libary is DVD's from about 2 years ago. :(

Wish I had could get games for less than a month membership of Gamefly.

Our library here is good, but the only bad part about it is you can only borrow it for 1 week at a time, you can renew the take out online, but provided the title has no holds...

wow that is one hell of a public library, i'm moving to Canada. the one i used to go to when back home is in Schaumburg, IL, and that one has a good selection of movies and some games last i checked, but forget about getting new ones. the line's from here to the moon.

Lol, just for games and such? Real good choice. /sarcasm

BTW, cant wait for tommorow (MAY 24), the library should be adding dirt 3 to their list...

Speaking of xbox games, these arcade titles, doritos crash course, harms way, and aegis wing are free on xbox live.

I know most people know this but just putting it out there...

Finally completed the original Dead Space, I know its taken me a while but I managed to get 815 Points out of it. I'm only missing 5 achievements but I don't think I'm going to do a second play through on Insane, although I am slightly tempted as I did really enjoy playing it.

That takes me to 101,797 GamerScore

Onto GTA IV DLC - Had both of these sitting on my HDD for far too long time to play them, hopefully be able to get the full 500 Points from them.

the DLC for GTA IV won't be easy as i recall. and about time you did Dead Space 1, jeez, three years ago almost...

SteelToast, thanks for the reminder, i think most people here have already played those. some of them were actually good, namely Crash Course and the one with the dinosaur...

Np :) crash course is especially fun, but i got 120 gs from harms way in 2 min of playing, quite literally.

If you got an extra controller you can snag the rest yourself. Aegis wing is an mildly easy 180GS that last 20GS is a PITA. Never bothered with crash course though.

There should be another arcade game on there titled, Yaris, I wouldn't play it. It's alright, pretty good for a freebie, and achievements aren't so bad, spare the million credit one. Which takes hours upon hours to get, though with the stuck glitch it's, as most glitches do, made it ridiculously easier.

Thinking of picking up the D&D arcade title that released today. Though that 'Master of Arms' achievement could end up being a huge PITA.

    • Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
