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.

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...

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...

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.

      It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?
