10,000 Gamerscore

I just made this blog to congratulate my friend Tom for getting a total of 10,000 gamerscore and heres hoping I'll be there too soon. Also I've now finished Viva Pinata 100% and aim to complete more of my games. Just to make this more post worthy, whats the biggest achievment gain you have ever had in a day? (sorry couldn't resist). :oops:

Funniest Game Moments

I was just wondering whats some of the funniest things that have happened to you guys on games. One of mine for example was when one of my friends was telling me their was a guy behind me, I replied by saying "Yeh yeh, I've heard that one before" to be chainsawed 3 seconds later. Embarrassing I know :(.

Speak to meeeeeeee!!!

Music

Just wondering what you guys have been listening to recently. Also your favourite artists and favourite songs, myself have been listening to alot of Q.O.T.S.A lately (well duh). Also my XBL is temporarily down and I will fix it shortly. And l I may be moving back to Timperly but better yet next to a girl im really into :D. Lastly Harris is a freakin sharpshooter!

Anyway music, c'mon I dont have all day!

Back from Holiday!

Alrighty then, just got back from Cornwall and got 4 new games in the last week! (not to shabby eh?). So Quake 4, FNR 3, LOTR BFME 2 (Dam that's a mouthful) and F.E.A.R have now been added to my 360 collection and you should expect reviews from 'em some time in the future. Also, I am now ahead of my gamerscore rival Robot_Vampir3 and will remain victorious! Mwahahaha, christ I'm a nerd... , Anyway post anything I missed in the "whole" week I've been gone :shock:.

And for those of you who probably arn't wondering my holiday was freakin awesome :lol:

Halo 3

Just made this blog to hear everybody's opinion on the beta and with the recent addition of Banshee's and more people in matches, there isn't really a better time to ask. ;)

IMO (thanks Robot_Vampir3), the beta was great before they added the update to it. But this has made a vast improvement, although from  time to time matches take a while to find players, Bungie have made it well worth the wait. With new gametypes added like multiflag CTF (at least I dont think it was out before) and the others escape me, it keeps getting better and better. The only problem I can see with the large teams is on maps like Highground space is limited to say the least and its a struggle to stay alive for more than 5 seconds (quotes Wonderboy46).

Anywho, back to the point. Im very happy with the new update and would love to hear your feedback. :lol:

 P.S Having great fun with Madden NFL 07 and won't be on all of next week.

Tony Hawk's Proving Ground

Woooooooooooo! Another Tony Hawk's game to beat all of you guys at :P and then I'll put it in slow motion for ya! Im a big THPS fan and consider myself to be pretty good at them, well anyway post your views, ideas and thought on the game and get back to me. Also tell me your highest combo ;).

Thoughts and Opinions on Saints Row 2?

Ok, Guys now that new plans have been announced for Saints Row 2, I thought it may be interesting to see everyone elses views and ideas on the sequel? Personally I wouldn't put Saints Row in the same league as GTA, but I still think this game brought some new features to the FR gameplay style that they both portray so well. Besides every white boy wants to be ghetto at sometime in their lives..... BRAP!

Oblivion Review Up and GRAW 2 Progress

After about an hour of typing (yes that slow....) I have at last finished my Oblivion review, please take a read if you have some spare time on your hands. Also I've almost got 700 Achievments out of GRAW 2 and I will have completed it for the third time by the end of the day :).

God Bless Compulsory SAT's

Right boys and girls, For doing my Year 9 SAT's my Mum says I can get any game I want in the £50 price range (Sorry GH2), so Im just looking for suggestions because I cant make my mind up on this one guys. :lol:

Nintendo WiiMo?

For those of you that know me, Im not exactly a Wii finatic. However I have been told that if i had purchased a Wii (Not in this lifetime cream train), I would have preferred it to my 360. But then when my mind seemed to get used to the concept of everyone appreciating their own consoles, one of my friends starts whining! "The Wii has no good games", "It has rubbish graphics" etc.

I frankly find this ridiculous, how he enjoyed his Wii until I told him my opinion on it? If consoles didn't get criticized, then they would have never improved into the great unique consoles we enjoy today! I need your opinion on this 1 guys. :?
