  • Xbox Live Milestone: 30,000 gamerscore

    Just over 2 years ago I crossed the 10,000 mark.  Yesterday, I hit 30,000. The achievement that put me over the top? One Bad Gato from COD: World at War.

  • N+ Music – Problem Solved

    I asked some folks I know over in the gaming division (Hi, Don) about my previous question about the music in N+, and he was able to track down people who knew the answer.  Turns out I was wrong (yeah, shock of shocks, I know).  The music was actually done by Joris De Man of […]

  • Home from work sick: day 2

    Still out sick, and the TV is still boring. I’ve even turned it off. Xbox is offline for maintenance, so no fun there either. I’ve been fairly producting in the whole e-mail department, though, so that’s good. The good news is that the chainsaws/wood chippers/weed eater sounds from yesterday are gone. The bad news is […]

  • Xbox Live Milestone: 10,000 gamerscore

    This evening, I broke the 10,000 mark on gamerscore on Xbox Live. The achievement that put me over the mark? The Chapter 9 Silver Bird Award in Condemned: Criminal Origins. I finished off the game tonight, and while impressed with the fear factor of the game, the plot really went downhill after chapter 4 or […]

  • Sony News Conference at E3

Even the audience seemed underwhelmed — I don't know if it was just that the microphones weren't capturing it, but there was very little applause and cheering […]

  • First PGR3 Tournament Tomorrow

    Ok, so part of the tournament was today, but the semi-finals are tomorrow night at 7PM Pacific Time. Full details here. I'm interested in seeing how well followed this will be by the Xbox Live community.

  • Gamerscore Addict

    I think I'm original in this, but maybe not. I came up with a new word today while browsing my Xbox Live gamerscore in comparison with friends. I submit to you: gamerwhore. I think to be a gamerwhore you should compare your gamerscore to others frequently (I do), but you should have also played NBA […]

  • Kameo Co-Op on XBL

    Ok, grievance with Kameo on the 360 – why can't co-op games be done on Xbox Live? I suspect it was going to be, but was dropped to make the game ship: The manual, when talking about setting up a cooperative game, talks about logging into Xbox Live profiles. The game, has a menu to […]
