50,000+ Gamerscore

Since April 23rd, 2007 I have been on a collision course with this goal. I wanted to pass the 50,000 gamerscore plateau. I don't know why this became a goal but it did. It took a year and 5 months but I finally completed my quest. It took 135 days to go from 40,000K to 50,000K with an average gain...

RROD Update

I posted earlier about the Red Ring of Death . Less than 24 hours after the issues started I have a brand new Xbox Elite back up and running. I had purchased the additional 2 year warranty from Best Buy when I originally bought the console. This has turned out to be a very good investment. I went to...

Red Ring of Death x 3

Well once again I am a victim of the dreaded Red Ring of Death . For those of you unfamiliar with the term it basically means that my Xbox 360 has fried.... again. This time my beloved Elite system froze in the middle of a Soul Calibur 4 session. Yoda was dominating for what it's worth... Then I...

Gamercards are still around as will your gamerscore, but my first question is what will happen to all of those 1000's of...

270

Why 270? What does it mean? Why is it the title of this post? This number is very meaningful to me. Well at least today it is. You see 270 represents the number of days between the last shutout in our office hockey competitions. The last time it happened, October 19th, 2007 it was a very shocking event...

Game of the Week - Ninja Gaiden II

One of my all time favorite games was the original Ninja Gaiden on the NES. I still remember the opening cut scenes ... that was all about the story that you needed to know... you knew it was time to start slashing away. When I first heard the news about Ninja Gaiden II I was immediately hooked. When...

40,000+ gamerscore

Yesterday marked the passing of the 4 0,0000 gamerscore plateau. It took 151 days to go from 30,000K to 40,000K with an average gain of 66 points per day. So I thought I would take a moment and archive some fun facts from this latest points quest. 1) Consecutive Days Played Streak - 22 2) Retail Titles...
