yeah i checked, but will try again. it won't take my password even though i definitely remember it, and it won't send me a confirmation email to change the password...it keeps telling me i'm already logged in, but at the same time i'm not :blink: this is weird.

slane loves this thing...he swears by it. it gives you a "real" gamescore based on how rare or difficult the achieve is. no idea who does the math on it, but i just look at the actual gamerscore. and yours is still too low!

Mine has crossed 5K on true achievements, but my xbox just was recieved on the xbox repair status side of things, it still has these stages left, 'repair in progress','repair completed','console shipped back'...

i don't count that as actual gamerscore...but nice turnaround on your console, that's like one week door to door. pretty fast.

Yeh, don't quite recognize TA's GS as actual GS, Probably one week door to door, especially since the console has been shipped back as of Friday, so Monday is the earliest I'll see it. :)

So I'm finding the downside of playing as a completionist. I don't wanan play any of the games I got left. LAN was/is a great game, but I can't bring myself to finish it (though I need to, i'm like 3 missions away and 3 cars). Brink, I still have that annoying achievement to win on all maps. Thinking Imma leave my box on when I leave for work today, and just let it play through continuously and hopeful whatever team I'm put on, I'll win. PSU was fun online, but fairly certain I don't want play through the SP, though it shouldn't take long.

I gotta suck it up, so I can pass Neo.

Got the full 1,200 on L.A. Noire, just got the other 200 points to get when the release the next DLC's the second of which will be when i'm in Africa so i'll have to play it in September.

Duke Nukem Forever is a pile of sh*t.

I'm upto 103,727 so close to 104k might hit it tomorrow.

hey slane, you knew the risks when you decided to go for a completionist approach. it means playing through stuff that isn't necessarily fun. i'd advise against it in the case of Brink, that sounds like a lot of bother. you're completion rate is already impressive, leave it be.

Rob - Duke isn't that bad! at least you got the points out of it, i'm playing it on PC! when are leaving for Africa?

I'm off Friday. Going to try and finish of LAN, and maybe progress further in JC2 or try to get that last Brink cheevo. Haven't decided, but I am going to finish LAN at least.

edit: 3000 posts :)

hey Rob, that's coming up, and Turkey along the way! i'll be on the road myself and out of internet coverage for a while, so let me take this opportunity to wish you safe travels and all the best!

slane, make the most of that Friday...let's see if you can beat my 70K finally after so long heh heh

many congrats on your 5K my friend, nicely done. why did you change you name, i liked SteelToast.

The only reason I changed my name on Neowin is because SteelToast and Steel Toast were already taken on xbox live, ok so i'll keep my name here in neowin SteelToast then. (I got the gamertag change for free btw since my name was in it, just had to call microsoft support and talk to them 'nicely' to get the job done)

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
    • with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
