Chrome Hounds High

A new day, a new war. My real Chrome Hounds experience started today. I have until January to get what I can. The servers will be shut down then. 1,000 for me is not possible. I wouldn't want to torture myself for 1,000 hours. Even not going for broke seems to be a very tedious affair. The only thing that makes this somewhat fun is that a group of us are trying to accomplish a goal. Win the war. I'll admit, I am still a nubcookie when it comes to this game. I am getting my wings, slowly but surely.

I was going to gun for an achievement a day for a few weeks. A nice slow pace suits me well with this one. I may end up pushing it so we can get a few of the harder medals once the war is complete. I am jaded when it comes to unlocking achievements in general, no doubt about it. Getting them in Chrome Hounds feels oddly satisfying for some reason. I can't remember the last time I got an achievement high. It could be the fact that I never thought I would play it. It sat here on my self for over 3 years aging like a bottle. Chrome Hounds...the finest wine.

What our squad must do:

For lulz. I had this stupid song in my head for weeks after playing that Disney Sing it game. I'm sorry sing it fans, but this is dog poo. I should have no business putting my hands in your poo. The crap and/or poo I touch for achievements...*sigh* .

Games that WILL melt your face

BattleField Bad Company 2



Why your face WILL melt:
Now that Dice has a few console FPS under their belt they have the experience. I still believe they will make the greatest console game EVER sometime in the near future. It might be Battlefield 3 whenever they unleash that. You will not find this type of destruction in Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. I know COD is favored by most, but Battlefield is the next best thing.

Blog turns 1, dies from old age

I started this blog up 1 year ago today. What have I learned? A blog is a good way to vent. I've probably converted a few people into becoming achievement whores over the course of this year. For that, I am truly sorry. Anyone that left me a comment, sent me encouraging mail, or hate mail. Thank you. I will continue venting here for the foreseeable future. Anything blog related I should do? Maybe a new sexy look? Get new blood blogging on here? I'm open for suggestions.

Interview turned article

Title of the article "Embracing your inner xbox360 achievement addict"

Here is a snippet of the article taken from www.stevivor.com & www.coolshite.net

"You find yourself boasting (repeatedly) to your friends that you’ve got the maximum 1000 gamerscore in the game…and log in to your console just to bring up the screen that proves it."

"Oddly enough, your friends don’t seem to care."

"The next day at work, you spend an hour researching the best ways to kill enemies, gather collectables, or glitch to make it easier to unlock more achievements in your next game. You continue to tell yourself you’re still in control."

"Next, you find yourself taking a day off work just to try to boost a game online; after all, you can’t finish it off without those pesky multiplayer achievements!"

"Stallion83’s current goal, to reach 1,000,000 gamerscore, began last fall (he’s aiming to have it done by December 31, 2014), and his website at www.1milliongamerscore.com chronicles his efforts. He identifies as a Hybrid addict: “I have different cycles that I go into during the course of a year,” he says. “My main cycle is to get the most out of a game and then move on to another game. I usually come back months later and top a lot of those off.”

To see the full article go HERE or HERE. Nice job Steve.

I had a few interviews lined up at the time but I was busy with the gamerscore league and only did one. UFC gaming and Australian 360 mag were the other two that contacted me at the time. I'm glad I ended up not doing the Aussie one. It turns out they focused mostly on the Aussie #1 guy who happens to be a cheater :(. Check THIS thread out for the lulz. I've heard that they are doing a follow up which is good news and I would be happy to do it now. Look out for something else soon.

Halo 3 ODST impressions

Will update throughout the day.

11:12pm -- I'll reserve further judgment on the campaign until I finish it up. If you are a halo fan you should enjoy firefight mode. ODST is not the next best thing, it's just here to tide us over. The campaign just doesn't have the usual halo epicness. The music and sound effects are really good and well above average.

6:54pm -- Not sure what to think about the campaign. It's good, but I had more fun playing firefight. Legendary is a cake walk in co-op.

4:07pm -- Firefight is sooo dang fun, especially with 4 people. I can't wait to try out all the levels. I'm about to check out the campaign. There is a weird lag freeze issue going on. It only lasts for a second and happens rarely, but it's still annoying. Oh, the graphics are improved, the framerate seems much smoother than that of halo 3 multi.

12:04pm -- Firefight mode is excellent. I only played a few maps by myself but it sure crushes horde mode found in Gears 2. I don't notice a huge leap in graphics, but the effects are still top notch. Just waiting for people to get online to play co-op with.

Character>Skills

3 years ago today I reached number 1 in the world for gamerscore, unofficially. September 22, 2006 is the day I passed up STtheking. It's unknown if he was still legit or even legit at all during that time. Everyone else ahead of me cheated at some capacity. The time could be longer but it's no less than 3 years. That I'm certain of. It came around the 52,000 point mark and I did it while playing the American version of Enchanted Arms. I'm not sure what happened to ST, but I do know whoever uses that gamertag now is not the same person. I have to give Kaens props for making that legit leaderboard back in the day. He helped tremendously with the non cheating movement.

My will to become number 1 overall is not the only thing that drove me. It has to do with character. My respect for xbox live and the system. I still don't get why people cheated the way the did. It's something I will always wonder about. It's a trait I wasn't born with so I don't know how it feels to be that way. The only way you can truly win is by doing things the correct way. When you have a fantastic dream at night it never involves cutting corners.

Most people don't know what it was like the very first year of whorefest. It was the dark days. Not a huge selection of games to choose from. The arcade games released then would be considered drizzle on your xbox live forecast. I reckon if I started over on a new tag today I could gain over 100,000 in less than 30 days, with ease. Just because of my previous knowledge of the games I would cut through them like butter. I guess that's sort of a shot at some people saying so and so would beat you if they started from the beginning.

Time for some Halo 3 ODST. :)

C.R.E.A.M.

I can't believe it's almost October already! 1MG blog is almost 1 year old. Halo 3 ODST is being released this Tuesday and I'm really excited about trying out the co-op and firefight mode. Not to mention the new maps for Halo 3 multiplayer.

I'm still working towards my goal of 400,000 and I hope to hit that by the end of the year. I am slightly off track but not by much. I have some games sitting here that I will be trying to get done before those slime bag publishers axe the online play. Chromehounds, FIFA 08, and Need for Speed Pro Street. Chromehounds I won't get done, but I want to get something out of it. The Chromehounds servers will be shut down in January. If you didn't get the memo, consider yourself served. As for the other two games, I'm not sure. With EA involved every online game is a ticking time bomb. DON'T CUT THE BLUE WIRE! Need for Speed Pro Street might have some life left to it. It was recently released for games on demand and touts mutliplayer features. It's recently departed sibling, Carbon, sings a different tune. No multiplayer features touted.

I'm really wanting to play Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 but the online co-op seems to be a buggy mess. I wanted to knock most of that out before Halo 3 ODST was released but that doesn't look possible. I've been entertained by WET. WET is fun. I'm not getting into good, great, or awesome talk. It's just FUN. It's like Max Payne, Strangle Hold, Kill Bill, and 007 movie intros. Not 60 bucks fun, an appropriate price would've been 40 dollar, dollar bills y'all.

The Party Chatter Chronicles

Sunday, September 6th.

The happenings inside the party chat.

Netflix instant que comes up and I mention the Leprechaun movies. Cru believes that in one of the movies the Leprechaun turns into a lawn mower with boobs to get some guys attention. Then proceeds to murder him with the boob blades.....

Piecing together her exact words: "Do you guys remember when the Leprechaun turned into a lawn mower with boobs and chopped some guy up?"

Here is what I found on youtube.


Sadly none of the Leprechaun movies are available on the nextflix instant que. :(

Omega Deez was intrigued by the whole netflix instant que thing he decided to try it out.





Majinfro and McTennis gang up on Rand al thor 19....They hate Barrack Obama... Rand defends ....Majinfro and Tennis continue to gang up on him saying Obama will turn into a robot and destroy the internetz...Tennis said, if Bush didn't fail so much he would've been considered one of the greatest Presidents of all time. This discussion went on for quite a bit. I probably missed half of it.
















While playing Guitar Hero 5 we let apple flex his golden pipes. Needing more diamond challenges, I ask him about Under Pressure and if he could handle it. He replied in a sincere but scared voice "that's David Bowie"

Apple can't handle the Bowie.

I also meet Ritalin pwner for the first time in Guitar Hero. I think he needs a higher dosage of the stuff.

A Perfect Circle

Gamerscore 360









Thanks to stophj for giving me the Zombie Wrangler viral achievement which evened out my gamerscore. I figured I HAD to hit 360,000. It is the xbox 360 after all. 360 gamerscore points is a pretty small amount and 36,000 really doesn't look that well. 360,000! Now that holds some weight because it kind of makes me reflect on everything I have accomplished over the last 3+ years. One big circle. Whatever you have to say or think about me, I like my circle. That's all that matters to me. Hexic HD was the start of the circle, Raven Squad is the end.

Now I'm on a singular path. No more circles!(Unless the next xbox is really called the "720") There is bound to be bumps and probably some forks. I'm just happy now. I will use this time to sit back and reflect. Like at the top of a waterfall, I am looking down. The climb was tough, but gosh darn it, the view, the sweet fresh air, the wind hitting my face. This makes everything I once hated, totally worth it. I would do it all over again.

To everybody that helped me along the way, OOOOOO. Those are manly hugs!

For me, hitting 360,000 is greater than 200,000 or 300,000. Getting to 100,000 was like chapter 1. Reaching 360,000 feels like completing another one. The next chapter starts shortly, but I have no idea when it will end. I will just know.

Dawn of the Downloadable

The horde's of downloadable content that's been unloaded is making those holes in my Swiss cheese gamercard even bigger. I'm pretty shocked at the amount of crap lurking on it for piles of monies. Most DLC is crap with the exceptions being maps for mutliplayer games you enjoy, some of the Fallout 3 stuff, and GTAIV. Everything else seems to be overpriced garbage. If you've played the Saints Row 2 DLC I hope you can agree.

Here is what I am missing and how much it would cost me to get these mostly easy achievements.

Gears of war 2: 3 achievements for 175 points DLC details: OWN it

Tomb Raider Underworld JP: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: 1600MSP=$20 (Need Japanese MSP for this)

Transformers 2: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: Not sure what the pricing is

Banjo Kazooie N&B: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: 400MSP=$5

Red faction Guerrilla: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: 800MSP=$10

Call of duty W@W: 20 achievements 500 points DLC details: 1600MSP=$20

Prince of Persia: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: 800MSP=$10

Halo 3: 20 achievements 500 points DLC details: Buy Halo ODST $60

Halo Wars: 8 achievements 200 points DLC details: 1600MSP=$20

Fallout 3: 18 achievements 450 DLC details: 3200MSP=$40

Tomb Raider Underworld: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: 1600MSP=$20

Mirror's Edge: 6 achievements 250 points DLC details: 800MSP=$20

Scene it BOS!: 8 achievements 250 points DLC details: 560MSP=$7

Marble Blast Ultra: 2 achievements 40 points DLC details: 400MSP=$5

Fable 2: 16 achievements 350 points DLC details: 1360MSP=$17

The force unleashed: 12 achievements 345 points DLC details: 1600MSP=$20

Beautiful Katamari: 3 achievements 250 points DLC details: It could be more but at least 800MSP=$10

Marathon: 4 achievements 50 points DLC details: 800MSP=$10 (BIG WTF)

Lost Odyssey: 6 achievements 100 points DLC details: 400MSP=$5

GRID: 4 achievements 100 points DLC Details: 800MSP=$10

GTA IV: 5 achievements 250 points, fixing to be a total of 500 points DLC details: 3200MSP=$40

Overlord: 1 achievement 50 points DLC details: OWNED

Mass Effect: 3 achievements 150 points DLC details: 400MSP=$5

The Godfather: 2 achievements 50 points DLC details: OWN it

Burnout Paradise: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: Not sure what you have to buy but it's at least 1400MSP=$18

Bioshock: 1 achievement 100 points DLC details: Not sure how much.

Band of bugs: 3 achievements 50 points DLC details: again, not sure. I know this is not free.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance: 4 achievements 90 points DLC details: OWN it

Samurai Warriors 2 XL: 8 achievements 250 points DLC details: 2400MSP=$30 (WTF)

Phantasy Star Universe: 5 achievements 250 points DLC details: 800MSP=$10

Kameo: 24 achievements DLC details: Not sure, it could be free.

Tomb Raider Legend: 10 achievements 250 points DLC details: 1600MSP=$20

Totals:
Achievemnts missing: 266
Gamerscore missing: 6,775
Cost in MSP: 28,920+
Cost in dollars: $361+ for MSP $60 for halo ODST +tax=$450+

I am in no way against DLC but I am against overpriced fluff DLC.

To get that 90% completion I eventually want, I would just have to spend roughly $450 on crap. That would put me right around 89% gamerscore completion.

You may want to watch what you play in the future. Any game can and will come up out of it's grave and unleash crappy DLC on your face.

The Big Kahuna

326

That is how many points per day I need to reach 400,000 before the clock strikes 12 midnight on January 1, 2010. For whatever reason, I want to hit 400,000 before next year. I told Rand al Thor I wanted to do it about a month and a half ago and he said it couldn't be done.

As I am writing this I have exactly 356,008. I need 43,992 in 135 days to reach 400,000. I feel like I can make it for a few reasons. The massive amount of games being released within the next 3-4 months, not to mention the overall quality of the games are generally better. Another reason being I am in a groove. A groove that has eluded me for years. I wish I could tell you "How Stallion got his groove back" but for whatever reason I feel like I could even pop pimp my ride in and swallow it whole without hating myself. I usually feel worn out after a gamerscore league is complete. I am going to ride this wave like the Big Kahuna.



I am also sitting on exactly 499 games played. I'm not sure when I will pop in another one for 500. It will be either Wolfy, Shadow Complex, BCF, or The new Batman game.

Completion % mumbo jumbo. I care and I don't care about it. I just think it would be silly to avoid a game that I know I would enjoy just because it is damn near impossible to complete. Before the gamerscore league started I was closing in on 90%. While the league was going on I somehow managed to drop it below 85%. I basically killed it with about 5 or 6 games I played for maybe an hour or less a piece. I've been able to resuscitate it somewhat and now it is back to 86.50%. I guess I will try to get it to 90% and keep it there.

The MachiNe Team wins H2H GSL Season 5

It's not official yet so I don't have the final scores. I will post stats and other things once they are made official.

I just want to thank a few people for making it possible. The MachiNes, Cru, Mango, Rand, Fro, Omega, Apple, and Tennis. Last but not least, Console Heroes. If you have been following my blog you may recall the bad taste season 4 left in my mouth. All that bitterness is now gone and Console Heroes has a good gamerscore league that I can highly recommend.

Not much is known about he future of the MachiNes, but I have a feeling we will be back in some fashion.

Smrnov hit em in the mouth on the final day and I thought this video might be fitting. Thanks to smrnov for providing the home video. I can't believe they ganged up on you like this man. The part where Danny Dibo tells Tommy to put you in a body bag was really uncalled for.


More info when scores become official.

Where in America is Stallion83 Winner

I thought it was interesting to see how this person knew my whereabouts so I'll share his messages.



















Screw all your messages, you get your own post! Btw, Excellent choice for arcade titles, it's just to bad amazon doesn't have 'splosion man. You will get your Alien Hominid code today. :)

A day in the life

Tomorrow I will have a day long running blog of my achievement adventures and whatever else goes on. This will not be a typical day, this type of extreme gaming only happens a few times a year due to the exhausting and stressful nature. Follow along tomorrow if you want to. I'm not sure exactly when it will start. The night before the GSL playoffs is like a child's Christmas eve to me, so I'm sure that little voice in my head will say, "time to whore" when I know I should be sleeping instead.
