I buy and basically hoard every [suspected*] point-and-click adventure game I can find in order to support the genre--since it's not guaranteed that I'll be able to find them later in-store and buying from a third-party doesn't benefit the creators--but I rarely sit down and play through them, just because I feel like there's generally something ( Read more... )

That's how many XBLA gamer points I have right now =p WTF.

Puzzle Fighter HD and its ludicrous "6 points for playing as Akuma" achievement! XB

from me =p

So, at ugly_x10's insistence, I picked up the game, but though I fought my way through crap interface to finish Episode 1, I got no achievement for it. I have no idea why, and it's baffling ( Read more... )

Okay, I's still a novice, but I FINALLY GOT THE ROCK BAND 2 CHALLENGE ACHIEVEMENT ARGHHHHH XB

I can't believe how long it takes to play through, what?, 20 challenges? Most of them have at least one song that's boring/awful/both, too, which makes it feel even longer.

Next: Finish the challenges on Hard 9_9

or some decimal thereof.

Aggravatingly, I only cut a minute off my prior best... discounting that one time I'm pretty sure I got 48:something, but it was on a not-Live account, if so. That one's likely deleted by now =p

I finally sat down and found all 80 [16 Stages x 5 Levels] hidden diamonds in Lode Runner--some were a downright PAIN to get without dying, and some I did in fact have to die to get them due to a convergence of enemies and/or collapsing blocks. I don't get a particular Achievement for getting all the gems, just the note in my statistics, but it's ( Read more... )

That's my record to beat, for that 3/4ths random set list for the Roadies thingie.

I'm getting there.

Hey, it's been a while, huh ( Read more... )

So when I cleaned out my closet and packed away most of my toys [not nearly all of them, though], I found an old Lupe "Pocket Neopet" handheld electronic device I apparently got long ago and forgot. After $7 in batteries, it works again, though I have no idea what the criteria are to unlock the code for it because the games are exclusive to this ( Read more... )

I finished the game with Yugi, much to my surprise. I suppose I shouldn't have been, considering the option to play as Yugi or Kaiba is the first thing the game offers, so I really just finished half the game. Kaiba ends up being "New Game +" this way, since I retained all of the monsters and items I earned with Yugi [perhaps appropriate, oddly ( Read more... )
