Feel like a challenge? Try out the DLC in Operation Flashpoint: Red River and go for the 1,000,000 points in last stand achievement, which is called Millionaire's club. And I want it like Veruca Salt wants a pony.


In the meantime some Angry Birds are calling my name. Why So Angry?

Now that leapfrog is officially dead I'm not sure what's next. Obviously I'm looking forward to reaching 600,000 in the next few weeks, but then what? I'm still going to stick with new releases but maybe I can come up with something else to keep myself going beyond 600,000. What that is? I have no idea.

I'm really pleased with how this leapfrog went down, but thinking I could keep it going  forever was a bit naive because every time I've done a leapfrog, I always seem to hit a wall. In my mind, climbing the leapfrog ladder all the way to 100 was and is doable.

But a little math shows to get that done in 97 days (10-100 achievements with 7 failed days=97days) is almost impossible as the number to pull off such an epic feat is 4,995 achievements. I just don't see that being possible for me, maybe if I started from scratch it's likely those numbers could be reached.

Failure is an option if you reach for the stars and give it your all.

Okay, maybe I lied about yesterday being my last day of leapfrog. I started to really get into Shadows of the Damned and nothing could break me away from it. It's a nice 3rd person shooter that is not only under the radar but is corky as can be. I really enjoyed it a lot but it doesn't have much replay value whatsoever. Unless of course you are going for the full 1,000 gamerscore points because to get all the achievements, it will take 3 full playthroughs as the difficulties do not stack.

It may be my sleeper hit of the year, I may need to check those facts but it's in the convo.


















Portal 3 totally needs anus warps.

After a few hitches and a lot of suck, I finally got you #47! That may be it for this leapfrog, I just feel like I've run the course.

So much here but I'll just say F.E.A.R. 3 didn't impress or interest me until about Interval 4 or 5. I'm starting to warm up to it and the co-op is at least interesting. Punch/melee the hanging beef for the YO, Adrian! secret achievement. The meat is found in interval 3 and is hard to miss.

I had this one in the bag but then my power went down for 12 hours. It happened and like most things in life, it's best not to cry over spilled milk.

On another note, Cars 2 is not that bad of a game, more like Mario Kart or Blur this go around. I'm not recommending you run out to the store and buy it asap, just saying that you will not hate yourself one bit for playing it. Most of the achievements come within the flow of the game, an excellent set of achievements to unlock.

I may of hit a wall with this current leapfrog challenge. I just didn't have it in me today to scratch for 47 achievements. Maybe tomorrow will turn out better.


I did have a nice little run in Full house Poker last night, I guess my poker face worked after all. I finished 4th place out of the thousands that were playing Texas heat and won over 2 million chips.
