Ever wonder what it is like being my xbox live inbox? Wonder no more.

WampisPL writes: how could you buy all of these games? PS, racing games are your weak point aren't they?

Answer
: I don't buy all my games. Racing games are really not my weak point, I'm actually very good at them when I put the time in.

Answer: Thanks Brian.

KING 4D writes: saw your post on x360 forums and had to give it up to you and that gamerscore, much respect. i was wondering how you know how many achievements you have, bc the new dashboard doesn't tell you?

Answer: Trueachievements has a total achievement tracker. I hope they put it back on the dash myself.

Kahnefan98 writes: R U Bill Gates

Very Huge O writes: First of all sorry 'bout the friends request Online trying send you messages If I was talking to Kobe I would say get those 3s But to you, you need some 1

Answer: Not sure what you mean here but it seems clever enough.

iMielke writes: i am prepared to give you 1 dolar for a friend request from you.

Answer: Sold. 99 more spots to be auctioned. Friends, don't get mad if you get the boot. I'd even stab Possum in the back for a buck. It's all about the Washington's baby.

Answer: First off, kiss my ass. Second, who gave you the idea I was giving up? Third, kiss my ass. I just read the message to possum, she said, "Kiss my ass you little twat."

S1N1S7ER writes: I challenge you to a guitar hero battle if i win then your gamerscore is for nothing and I think you have a paper gamerscore. You are my hero... not.

Answer: A paper gamerscore? When did gamerscore become a boxing event?

FFC LALIPRANDO writes: SUCK MY PENISSSSSSS!!!!!!! lol im so ******* happy!

Answer: Is this because I got passed by a few people on mygamercard? I'm guessing that's the reason you are so happy. Good, I'm glad you are happy. You will be sad again, it's just a matter of when.

Answer: Thank you. I need to see a picture of this custom T-shirt if it ever happens.

Puffy Funbags writes: Hey man. Congrats on the 300K. I helped a bit during our online matches for 007, where you fragged me endlessly on our way to the 500 kill cheev. I was GT Hollywood Child then. As a older gamer it's fun to watch all the young n00bs try & diss you. :)

Answer: I can't remember playing against you, but thanks for the congrats and keep on watching the young noobs diss. It will probably never end.

Swift Shadow UK writes:You are a filthy cheating c...... oh wait i thought you were StripClub DJ (the only legit part of him is his small penis) congrats on 300k =)

Answer: zero gamerscore would fall into the small Ewenis category.

VENOM MADNESS writes:Congrats on 300k but, don't you think it's a little tarnished by the fact that you have multiple copies of the same title? 2000 and 3000 points from Enchanted Arms. While I don't consider this cheating it does take something from your achievement.

Answer: No, I do not. There is a great deal of suffering involved when playing through enchanted arms three times. Damn you Rand al, damn you.

Daninthemix writes: you've probably been asked this before - how many 360s have died in your possession?

Answer: I've seen the red rings 10 times. A lot of those were off refurbished machines, but still.

Swiss Cheese

Changing the way I play for achievements...for now

Grinding game after game after game I've decided to take the whatever whenever approach to gaining achievements and gamerscore. In the past and present I solely focus on a select few games until they are fully completed. Sure, I'm still going to complete most games especially the ones I enjoy. In regards to completion percentage, that will take the hit. So for the time being I'm going to see how I enjoy the new approach. I will always be going back to games and completing them when I'm ready to do so. I just hate forcing the issue when there is something I could be enjoying much more.

I'll give an example of what would happen in the past and what I'm trying to avoid now. I beat a game one time and I hate it. The game has achievements for playing it twice. I could either suffer though the game again or go onto something else. For the time being I'll be moving onto something else unless the game is very short.

A game like Resident Evil 5 I will play to completion 10 out of 10 times.. What I'm essentially doing is picking fun and gamerscore over completion. I think this way I will actually gain more over a period of time because I won't get as stagnant.

Just a test I suppose at least for a couple of months. This is no way me getting sick of achievements, just a way to keep things fresh.

So expect my gamercard to look like Swiss cheese for a bit.

Thank yous

My thank yous.

Rand al Thor-Once called me the Madam of the achievement whores. I think he has tuned out to be a bigger whore than I am. When Rand first sent me a friend request I thought he was messed up in the head. All he played for a good week was over-g and time pilot. I think we first played Saints Row together. That guy with the pimp coat was cheating or something. lol While playing gears of war 1 I said "Watch out there is a sniper" Rand says " I don't give a **** about no sniper" Half a second later I looked down at rands body and he had no head. Probably the funniest moment in my xbox live history.

The MachiNes
Omega Deez- I'm sorry I got you into the world of achievements. I know my cousin now because of xbox live and achievements. I never got to know him before because we live hundreds of miles apart. We started playing over live in late 2006. I think he had like 16k at the time. Even though he liked achievements, he wasn't addicted. Sorry about that man. It's been fun getting to know you better though.

Majinfro- It's been good getting to know you man. I'll be watching afro samuri and eating steakhouse burgers before you know it. Screw sweet tea though.

Cracker AOD- You stole my best buy gift card. lol Nah, we had some good times playing tiger woods back in the day as well as other things.

Now onto 400k and beyond

Gave birth to 300,000










Yesterday at 5:34 PM EST I finally crossed the 300,000 mark. I did not hit it on the dot as I got it when I finished the campaign of H. A. W. X. on extreme and got 3 for 180. That put me over the top at 300,003.









I would say this was the toughest hill to climb thus far 200,000 to 300,000. I feel a little worn down, but I'm still looking forward to raising the bar and challenging myself in new ways in the year to come.

I'm looking forward to getting 333,333, which is 1/3 of the overall goal

Thanks to everyone that sent me a message. I tried to send everyone a thanks that showed me some love. If you spent the time to send me a message, I figured I would return the favor.

I have so many people to thank but I'll save that for tomorrow.

For now I'm getting some sleep.

For those that want to call me out for not hitting 300,000 on the dot. Omega Deez aka Eddie Winslow says that's Urkel shit.

Highway to the 300k



Footage of me flying to 300k. I reckon I'll be landing there tomorrow. Hopefully H. A. W. X. doesn't glitch on Omega and I like it did on other people. Wish me luck.

Mr potato head can go to hell. He hates me in Yahtzee, he loves Possum though.

MonkeyBoy2194 writes: How much gamerscore could you actually get from all the games put together, 289,468 out of ????. But that must take ages and get boring doing some of those achievements wouldn't it?

Answer: 296848 of 334445

JACKK1994 writes: Hi, I was on 1milliongamerscore.com and I saw you talking about achievements with the same names. It's just a hunch, but I think it may be "Pack Rat." It is an achievement on GOW2, Mirror's Edge, Dead Space, Jumper, Crackdown and Penny Arcade. Later.

Answer: I declare you the winner until someone proves you wrong.

I Crush All writes: Since you are on top of the "LEGIT" leaderboards I had to ask your opinion on a game and if you consider it cheating. Fallout3 PC was hacked and found out to have a built in ability to unlock any achievement you want. Is this cheating?
2nd msg:I know you have not done it, that is why I asked. I hope you take the time to respond to me. BTW I am an x360a member too and there are a lot of conflicting opinions on it. So I wanted to hear yours.

Answer: From what I've heard it is basically a cheat code within the game. I've had many friends use this to unlock their fallout 3 pc achievements. It's not gamesaving, hacking, or account swapping. If someone wants to do it, they shouldn't get grief over it.

Chugachea writes:Dude your awesome! Wow... and i thought my friend had a high gamerscore =D On average how many Gamerpoints do you think that you get per day? Just wondering.

Getting closer

I still need 4,500 before I crack 300,000.

I did finish up Pure and Dead Space. I loved both of those games, Dead Space was crazy good. Pure, i'm not sure everyone will like it, but it reminded me of when I played SSX for the very first time back when the PS2 launched.

NCAA Basketball 09 was another one I completed over the last week or so. It took forever to get 75 online games played but Rand al turd and I got it done while having some fun. Illinois center #54 owns in this game, nickname Godzilla. So if you want to be cheap like Thor, pick Illinois every time.

Sega UGC was also conquered and I had a pretty good time with this. Not thrilling, but it was okay.

Street Figher IV is very fun, but why put a cheap boss like Seth in the game? Why Capcom? I think I'm around 500 points right now, I still need to finish a lot of the online stuff.

Shellshock 2 Terrible excuse for a game. I would say it's probably one of the worst FPS I've ever played. The good is that it is quick and easy. Stay far away if you looking for a challenge or some fun.

Fallout 3 DLC Operation Anchorage overpriced for one since it only takes like 2 hours at most. Not really Fallout either as looting opportunities are completely gone. I just wasn't feeling this at all. Hopefully the next batch of content is better. I think if it was part of the original package I would of liked it more. Coming back to a game that you love for what it is and getting something completely different was not what I was looking for.

Banjo-Kazooie I played this game on my N64 back in the day and I loved it. I still love it, the game really holds up well after all these years. This is well worth the money.

Eat lead I really enjoyed my time with it. It's a mesh of Stranglehold, Kane and Lynch, Army of two, and Duke Nukem. The gun play and cover system is on par of what Army of Two has to offer. I thought the game was pretty dang funny, a good change of pace.

Next up is Halo Wars and Afro Samurai. I'm still hoping to crack 300,000 by next Wednesday. One week so I highly doubt I'll get it done by then.Bold

In the moment: Sonic UGC

In the moment thoughts of games while I play them.

Alex kidd: Mario look a like. A little strange looking dude that can kick cars.

Alien Storm: This robot character looks like the tin man and can shoot electric bolts. The graphics look like classic TMNT.

Altered Beast: I just turned into a ware wolf. Was this before or after Teen Wolf? I played this about 8 years ago, still stinks.

Bonanza Brothers: Eat door cop, eat door. The characters look kinda cool.

Columns: Crappy Tetris clone.

Comix Zone: Had high hopes at first, then meh. Well done turner. OH YEAH!

Decap Attack: Mario stole the jump in between two walls from this game....sorta.

Ecco: I just talked to a dolphin, sweet! I think I saw Leonardo DiCaprio's body under some wreckage.

Ecco: The Tides of Time: I can't figure out how to eat fish for the achievement.

E-SWAT: There are these big guys in the second level that do nothing but sit there, what is the point of them? They must have large E-wenis's

Fatal Labyrinth: I never found this type of game to be fun, even 18 years ago.

Flicky: My favorite game on this disc thus far. Who doesn't like getting chicks?

Golden Axe: Jeff Bells claim to fame. Was it this bad two years ago when it came to the arcade?

Golden Axe II: I thought it was much better than 1, this time I used the girl.

Golden Axe III: I can't say much about it because I just let the enemies kill me so I could use magic 10 times.

Kid Chameleon: My fave so far, braid stole this guys big head and look. Hockey mask ftw.

Sonic 1: Straight up classic, still looks good to me.

Sonic 3: It looks like crap compared to Sonic 1, I do like tails though.

Streets of Rage: Knifes, bats, chicks with whips, and knees to the gut. Still fun.

Sonic 3D Blast: Is this when it all went down hill?

Sonic Spinball: A lot better than I expected. Apple told me it was hard, apple is nub.

Super Thunder Blade: Not so super

Beyond Oasis: It seems like it would be a decent game.

Shinobi III: Not too shabby, True ninja skills is the name of the achievement which is a stretch.

Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine: The last game I played and probably my favorite of them all except for the true classic games such as Sonic. Rand is nub.

Overall: I had a good time with Sonic UGC. I think for a price tag of $30 your getting a pretty good deal. They need a disc like this with Dreamcast classics. Powerstone on arcade please!

My horse and me: The secret shocking past of Stallion83


It took a while to dig up some pictures but I came through. Yes, that is me on my old horse Oscar. I use to ride horses in shows. I did this for about 2 or 3 years of my life, 3rd to 6th grade I believe. The type of horse riding I competed in was Western Riding. It's not like a horse racing competition, it's more like how elegant your horse looks while being under control type of show. Every contestant had to dress up, chaps and all.

My sister started out doing it, but somehow managed to get me into it. Not many people know how hard a person has to work to do these shows. So much preparation and practice go into these things. We would leave home weeks at a time to attend horse camps and horse shows out of the state. When we were not at school, we spent hours training with trainers an hour away from home. The rest of the time we had to care for our horses. Groom it, wash it, work it out, feed it, and clean it's crap. When it came show time, we had to glam the horses up, paint it's hoofs, etc. So much detail was put into the horse, it would take hours just to get it ready.

A little bit about my horse Oscar. His barn name was Oscar. His show name was A Spot of Scotch. He was a big time World Champion in flying lead change, not while I had him, before my family bought him. I think we bought him for $8,000. He would pop his bottom lip when he wanted cinnamon. I would buy him cinnamon sticks at Cracker Barrel. You could lead him around without a rope, you could just act like you had a rope and would follow along side you. My biggest accomplishment while I had him was 7th in showmanship at State competition. Out of every horse I've been around, Oscar had the most personality by far. I'm not sure where Oscar is today, but I hope he is doing well.

We just got over our heads with this whole horse thing. Too much, too quickly. We got pretty big time a few months before we called it quits. If you are buying horse saddles that cost $3,000 a piece, your getting a little over your head. Those things had silver all down them like this. I wish we never started going to competition, it would've been fun just riding around the farm. I think we ended up having 20 horses when it was all said and done. It was a draining time but I learned a lot of useful things in my 3 years.

I know a little something about how horses are groomed and maintained. I recently played and got all the achievements in My Horse and Me 2. People want to laugh when you have this on your gamercard. For me, it brought back childhood memories while playing it. I remembered so much stuff, I actually ended up having a lot of fun with it. Most people will not like this game at all. Although, if you've played jumper and pimp my ride, you owe it to yourself to became the secret stallion for one day and ride. YEE- HAW!!!

























"It's important to comfort stallion. Stroke his neck, head, and body. They like this a lot and it helps remove a thoroughbred's tension"

That is my horse Stallion from my first play through of My horse and Me 2. The only thing missing from this picture is his extremely large E-Wenis.

On my second play through I named my horse Oscar of course. :)

Xbox America interview

If you would like to check out my interview over at xboxamerica it is up. Big thanks to them for setting it all up. I signed up a long time ago for the leaderboards. I recently browsed around a bit and it is a very nice site. I added it to my favorite xbox related sites. Sign up and see where you rank in your state. #1 in Tennessee baby!

Here is the direct link to the interview.

The 10k Plan



















I have around 10,000 to go before I crack the 300,000 mark. To be exact, I need 9,997 more. Here is a little outline of what I plan to do for the final 10,000.

Finish Pure and Dead Space: 855 Gamerscore

Fallout 3 DLC: 100 Gamerscore

NCAA Basketball 09

Street Fighter IV

50 Cent: Blood on the Sand

Afro Samurai

Sonic Ultimate Genesis Collection

Prince of Persia

Halo Wars

Halo Mythic map pack achievements

The maybes:

GTA Lost & The damned DLC

Need For Speed Undercover( Community race day will have to come up for me to do this one)

Call of Duty: World at War

Shel Shock 2

Disney Sing it: High school Musical 3(Ballin)

Eat Lead looks like a promising generic shooter.

Something else may pop up because there are a ton of games coming out soon.

Goal was to hit 300k by March 3rd which I don't think will happen because I'll try to enjoy some of these. My new goal is to hit it on March 10th or 11th, before I go out of town for a couple of days.

I want to hit 300,000 on the nose and my score is a little off at the moment at 290,003. I need either two 1 point achievements or one 2 pointer. I need some ideas on how to get it back in line.

I guess it's back to Dead Space for me. If you haven't played Dead Space, play it. I really missed out not playing this 4 months ago. When the sequel comes out it will be a day 1 purchase for me. Brilliant game in my opinion and the new face of the survival horror genre.

Brute Force

I just ran into what I thought was a little deja vu. I unlocked the Brute Force achievement in Dead Space and thought it looked familiar when popping. It turns out The new DLC achievement in The Maw is called Brute Force. I also unlocked that achievement earlier today. I don't remember unlocking different achievements that shared the same name on the same day. I'm well aware that there are achievements that share the same name besides this instance. Dead Eye would be my guess for most shared name across all achievements. Anybody want to look what would be the most? Have at it. Report back with your findings if what you find is worth reporting.

Speaking of Brute Force, am I the only person on this planet that thinks it wasn't a terrible game? It was way over hyped for sure, but I didn't get caught up in that. Yes, the voice acting was terrible and the characters were cliche but come on. No, It was not the next halo by any stretch. It had good co-op! The game was at least an 8. The multiplayer was actually fun but what killed that was the lack of online play. The reviewers seemed to like it for the most part with a metacritic rating of 77. I just remember hearing everyone talk badly about it.


I'll take this so called deja vu I experienced as a sign that Brute Force will be released as an xbox orginal very soon. On top of that, it will be the first xbox original game to include achievements. Hopefully with that happening it will "Brute Force" all other xbox original games to fall in line. I would be curious to see how much of a boost in sales original titles would get if this were to happen. Me, I would buy every single one of those suckers. I'm a sucker, I know.

Give me Brute Force or give me death. Come to think of it, I still have my copy sitting here.

* means the game has glitched achievements

The 27 day streak gave me a huge boost. I've only completed one since the streak died, MLB Stickball. I might let the completions take a back seat for a while so my overall score goes up quicker.

11,000 total achievements conquered, I'm sitting on exactly 11,011 at the moment.

A little bit about FEAR 2. If you are wanting another completed game on your gamercard, Fear the Fear 2. It has some ridiculously long Multiplayer achievements. I'm talking like 100 hours plus for these, you've been warned. You can get 800 quick points out of it and it is a good game. They really toned the difficulty down a notch, hard is more like normal compared to most shooters.

Since all the buzz is surrounding the GTA DLC dong cut scene, I give you the Omega deez "cute" dong. Enjoy.

93,000 missing stars and the sky is clear

Day 28

Complete a game a day streak is over. A streak which started on 1/18/09 came to an end after 27 days. So who won this battle stallion, the streak, or a new contender?

I started today with 17,000 stars in lips, around 83,000 to go for the final achievement which is 100,000 stars. As I am writing this I have zero stars. I fell victim to this glitch. I was around 93,000 when this little bug bit me. A mere 7,000 stars shy of 1,000 and another day for the streak. It was around 9:20pm EST when the glitch occurred so I had plenty of time to get it done. I dreaded finishing this game up, but I sucked it up and drove myself batty. I played the same song over and over and over again. 8 minutes long, just the chorus in loop.
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
Hey ya
The song is by Obadiah Parker, some of you may know the Outkast version. This way allows you to get 4,000 stars in around 8 minutes. I had ear plugs in, ear muffs on, and a toboggan cap on trying to drown out the sound that will probably give me nightmares for weeks to come. I was camped out in a lazy boy recliner inches from the TV for 5 hours with the mics up against each speaker. Flipping the mics back then forward every 15 seconds to activate star power or whatever you call it. It was a heart breaker on valentines day for sure and by a game called lips is even more of an insult. I was denied by the achievement Gods on this day or it was a sign to stop the streak and play better games. Lips is an excellent karaoke game, but if you try to force it like I did, it's no fun.

A picture of my missing stars and medals. The challenge wins didn't get reset back to zero, neither did the rank of superstar that you see in the top middle part. Superstar rank equals 100 of each medal and 50,000 stars. If I do decide to go back and 1,000 this game, I only have to worry about stars.











This pretty much sums up lips, better get use to it.


The only streaking I will be doing for a long time. Boogity Boogity


Complete a game a day streak ends at 27 by the hands of a glitch.

Stallion vs Streak

Day 27

27 days in a row with a completed game

2/13/09
Unreal Tournament 3: I went back and got the previous glitched like the back of my hand achievement. It took around 5 hours tops.

Final achievement obtained in Unreal Tournament 3













I feel the streak may come to an end very soon. I have the games to keep it going for at least another week, but it's getting the best of me at the moment. I need a break for a few days. Recoup then come back and make a mad dash towards 300,000. I have some really good games sitting here that I want to play. Dead space for example is tempting me. I can't start playing it if I feel rushed. I need 80,000 more stars for 1,000 in lips and that may be the last game to the streak. I realize that I will never accomplished another streak like this ever again, so it is hard to let go of. I'm not quite sure what will happen. If it does end, I had a good run and it got me almost back on track. Stay tuned.

200 in 30 minutes and sweaty men

Day 25 & 26

26 days in a row with a completed game

Wednesday 2/11/09
3 on 3 NHL Arcade: If you have 10 bucks, 4 controllers, and 30 minutes you have 200 easy gamerscore points. Not much more to say besides that. You do not need 4 controllers, but it is the most efficient way to complete the game. I'm glad this puppy fell into my lap during this streak.

Final achievement obtained in 3 on 3 NHL











Thursday 2/12/09
Smackdown vs Raw 2007: I had 990 in this one for ages and I finally gave it a good smackdown. Pinned it 1..2..and 3. Nobody could stop me, not even Hulk Hogan. The final 10 point achievement I needed was to Defeat every Superstar on the roster by pin or submission at least once on hard difficulty. Took around 4 hours to do and was less boring then I thought it would be. I basically just used the Rock and kneed everyone in the gut until they turned red.

Day 22, 23 & 24

Sunday 2/8/09
My Horse and Me 2: Laugh all you want but just wait a few days, this is getting it's own blog post very soon.

Final achievement in My Horse and Me 2












Monday 2/9/09
Secret Service: Yet another generic FPS that I somehow ended up enjoying. I know this is a crap game but there are reasons beyond explanation as to why I did enjoy it. Rent it for the easy points but if you do get desperate for the points it's only 30 bucks new. *Hint* Play the game on the hardest difficulty setting first. Make note of the missions you die on and the missions you used your night vision goggles on. Once you finish the game, just not die and don't use your night visions goggles on those missions. There is no need to play through the entire game again. For the night vision achievement,what are you a cat: Once you go back and reply the missions you used night vision on and successfully did them by not using it, reply the very last level for the achievement to pop.

Final achievement obtained in Secret Service





Tuesday 2/10/09
Crash Time: aka its not that bad Stal. I hate you Rand al, I really do. If I had the opportunity to use any crash time tactic on you it would definitely be a drone all up in your ass. I realize nobody understands what I am talking about, so do yourself a favor and keep it that way by not playing this horrible game. Even if a little Rand al fairy is on your shoulder whispering good things about it, DO NOT LISTEN. The game is not hard at all for points, just boring and sometimes frustrating with the trial and error.

I enjoy coke 'n bawls






















Not to be confused with the same coke 'n bawls Richard enjoys.

I'm talking about drinks of a hardcore achievement whore. When I need a caffeine fix which is often, I turn to these two drinks. Coke 'n bawls.
I drink a single diet coke with splenda on a daily basis. I love the taste of it, it is very smooth and refreshing. I don't like to drink regular diet sodas because of the aspartame found in them. Why? From what I know and read, aspartame is not so good for you. What it actually does is tricks your brain into thinking you are drinking something sweet. If you eat something after drinking a regular diet coke, it will taste sweet. Other health concerns are cancer related.

Bawls is the best energy drink I've ever tasted. I rarely get to drink one since Comp USA got shut down. It's just not mass market yet, but I believe you can find it at Target now and a few gas stations. I've only tried the original flavor in the bottle. I've had about 7 cases total, I got a case for the release of halo 2 and halo 3. For more information on bawls products go to www.bawls.com. I personally want to try a bottle of g33k b33r. I love me some root beer.

I also have a few cups of coffee in the morning, I sweeten that with splenda too.
