So i finally got round to d/ling the DiRT demo. And gorgeous and awesome as it is. There's a reason i don't get these games.. because i suck at them.

Seconded. I fail at driving the cars.

[Hero-of-Time]

Looks like the Halo 3 achievements have been found!

I'm buying shadow run, just to let you know.

 

I'll also be plauing GoW tonight if my xbox arrives today. >_<

[Guest Stefkov]

Just got my Gamerscore to 7777...

 

Just got another achievement now though, its up to 7807

[Tellyn]

Will Asshat ever achieve the elusive 1337 achievement points? That should be an achievement in itself.

 

EDIT: I played Small Arms yesterday at my friend's house (on my own account to get achievements ) and got the 'Six Degrees of Small Arms' achievement. Look that up if you don't know, but it's a viral achievement. It also has a value of 0GP, which I thought was rather pointless.

Is the 360 HD-DVD drive region free?

[Daft]

This is the cheapest place I've found for it.

From what I hear they deliver the day before launch consistently and you get an extra 10% off your first order.

 

Damn I only just saw this and they've stopped taking pre-orders....damn, damn, DAMN!!!

[Tellyn]

I'm 90% sure it is.

 

There is no Region Coding in the existing HD DVD specification.

 

100%.

[Calza]

It's pretty cool when you two or more achievements at the same time. I got '2 for 500g'.

 

It's annoying though because if I hadn't got the boomshot achivement I would of had 5555.

[Guest Stefkov]

2 for 500?!?

What did you get?

[theguyfromspark]

There's a rumour going round that Microsoft are going to reveal a new product at midnight EST. The division of microsoft doing the reveal is the same division that owns the Xbox and Zune products so could be something interesting!

I want GRAW, because there's a 2 point achievement. Which would take me to 1337 achievement points..

Then you must stop playing the 360 altogether, for fear that you'll get one more achievement point...

[Caris]

Gears now.

[Tellyn]

I thought you'd never ask.

 

EDIT: I've run out of gold time on Bauer888, so for tonight I'm going to use USABauer888 which is my American account.

What did you get?

 

NBA 2K6

Get 20 Rebounds

Get A Triple Double

[Guest Stefkov]

Lol.

 

I got a few achievements on VT3 before. Get a Turkey in that Pin Crusher. Really easy to get in the end..

[gmac]

NBA 2K6

Get 20 Rebounds

Get A Triple Double

 

ah NBA 2k6 the achievment gatherers game of choice

1000 gamer points in less than an hour

[khilafah]

spent few hours on Blue Dragon. From what I have played it is a solid RPG but it isnt a classic. storyline is a bit weak!!

[Marshmellow]

I believe I got all NBA 2K6 achievements in one game... Made me happy:D

[theguyfromspark]

Nothing much to do with Xbox but: Microsoft Surface has been announced

[Bluejay]

Someone on my friends list was playing Shadowrun. How is this? It was an Irish man, I think. I asked him but to no avail.

 

EDIT: That surface thing is badass.

[AshMat]

That surface thing looks awesome!

[BlueStar]

New stealth drive firmware has released which has been successfully tested without people being banned from live.
