  3. Hey I have a question for Rand al Thor 19 but do not posses this thing called Facebook. My question is:

    Do you want to see The Wheel of Time series as a TV Show, A series of Movies, or an amazing game?

  4. How did NG3 get hardest game of the year so far? Surely it must go to Max Payne 3. You used TA as a reference, so I will too.

    0.37% of people who have played NG3 have completed it yet only 0.24% have completed Max Payne 3.

    Surely an oversight by the Popcast crew.

    1. Just an FYI, the REAL Wingman709 did not post this. Its funny how people like to hide behind the Internet. If you want to say something, have the nerves to post your own name or gamertag. I have never even been to this site by my friend Moroniccow and EliteEdawg420 thought this was me. Good thing they know me better then that. So lets see who is man or woman enough to admit they posted it. Just figured I would come and post since my good name was being used in a bad way.

      The REAL Wingman709 from Xbox Live and Host of the now gone This Xbox Life Podcast.

  6. The evidence is clear, over 50 games with .000 milisecond issues on Phatal1ty's gamercard, go to xbox.com and view the evidence for yourself. Kick her out.

  7. Yes, the evidence is clear. There are cheated games on her tag. I checked myself in detail on xbox.com. I don't think that necissarily means she needs to be removed from the podcast. She has a lot of knowledge about Xbox. If she denies that there are cheated games on her card then that would be pretty difficult to let slide (the evidence is overwhelming). So far it seems she is basically lying to all of her supporters which must be pretty frustrating for them.

    Here is an explaination for how to see the millisecond time stamp on xbox.com

    THere is no legit reason to have so many achievements with zero milliseconds (unless it is a Windows Phone game).

    Frankly I wish she would make a new tag and come back to TA. She was such a great contributer to the site!

  8. Hmm, I just followed the steps to check out my .000 millisecond record on games. Turns out I have 2 achievements with .000 and both unlocked in the same game about 24 hours apart as well, what are the chances of that happening? These two achievements are easy as pie to get (maybe 5 minutes?), unlike some of the others in that game, and I have not cheated to get them. I didnt go through ALL my achievements so there might be even more out there! (it's a chance of 1-999 so with the number of achievements I should only have about 2)
    Based on her stats she can easily have 25 with that time stamp, 50 doesn't seem that far off to be honest. Turns out I already had 2 before I hit 100 achievements, and two of them on one game with one day in between! She might just be very unlucky, and can it not be some sort of issue with xbox live registering the times? Anyway, I don't like to judge someone without proof, I can't see her achievements myself since they're blocked, and I think it would take more than timestamps to judge someone at all (unless you have multiple full games with all .000).

  9. It turns out for technical reasons the odds are 1 in 300 for each achievement it will hit .000. Follow the link and check the comments for more info. Apparently the only legit reason you would get .000 is just plain luck (or for some Windows Phone games). She did have at least one game I saw with ALL .000. And in some other cases it was just the last few (i.e most "difficult") achievements that were .000.

    1. Might I suggest you go and get yourself a life?

  10. Best thing to do is this - anyone who thinks anyone else is cheating should try and get to a million points before them. Take the moral high ground.

  11. On behalf of Wingman709 (The Real Wingman709) he did not post that comment about Phatality. He didn't even know about this site.

    1. Exactly. Grow a pair and use your own name. Today is my first time on this site only to clear my good name. I don't listen to this show, don't know what the comment even pertains to. The REAL Wingman709 is not about achievements so that in of itself shows the falsity of the original comment. Thanks Rav for having my back and knowing me well enough to see a fake.

  12. We address what we know in the latest episode. A lot has changed since we recorded due to someone making US clean up THEIR mess. Deflecting the issue at hand.
