Lol for your sake I hope you get the 1000 points, I wouldn't wish to replace your Charmin with 60 grit sandpaper :P Hopefully when the time comes we can start up horde mode sessions much like Onyx's Castle Crashers coop. Gears 2 will be huge :p

Guys, I need some help.  I've been playing Puzzle Quest, and I'm one achievement short of them all (not counting the expansion stuff).  Either way, for the life of me I can't figure out how to get it.  It's the one where you have to forge a Godlike item.  I've tried everything I can think of, and it hasn't worked yet.  I even went to xbox360achievements.org and looked it up, crafted an item with the runes they said, and nothing.  Could anyone please give me some help?

Here's five other achievements they didn't list for Gears of War 2.

It seems like gears will be an easy 1000.

Is your difficulty with finding the items to combine for a Godlike item? The information at x360a.org is faulty. I think I used Rune of Axes + Rune of Gods + Rune of Poison. It should tell you the level of your item before you begin forging it.

If your problem is with the puzzle itself... good luck.

The only "trick" I can offer is to make matches vertically rather than horizontally. It seems to make for better cascades and help prevent a deadlock.

Edit: It would appear the 1,337th post in this thread is mine, gentlemen!

I joined the Too Human race 2 days ago. I got a used copy for about $40. I played some coop with a friend for about 5-6 hours the other night. It was pretty darn fun. I can see why some don't like it but should have gotten better reviews than it did from some places.

I myself got the game yesterday and just had a great co-op session with Darc Requeim for 2-3 hours (thanks man, had good fun talking about VGChartz and console sales as well!). Yes I finally went Gold.

They really should have made more co-op Achievements to encourage these sessions. If anyone else wants to co-op Im usually game on Saturdays and GMT night times (should be around late afternoon/ evenings for Americans).

After this weekend I might hit you up on the co-op Eagleseye. I saw you on the other night but didn't know you had gold. One of my friends checked the game out from work but he has to return it on monday. I won't have any coop partners for the game after then =/

Nice! I've got my hands on Tales of Vesperia: Special Edition and a 2800 Microsoft points card. I bought Castle Crashers, Galaga Legions and Alien Hominid HD.

So far, I have to say that my favorite game of the 4 I've got is Castle Crashers. It's simply amazing: stunning art style, fits-the-action soundtrack, great difficulty level, lots of depth for a XBLA game, etc. So far, I've tried the Blue Soldier and the Alien from Alien Hominid (magic shot abuse, hehe). I have to say, The Behemoth really got the feel of the beat 'em up genre and it reminds me of Guardian Heroes a lot! I wonder which genre and game influence they're going to take on for their next game, maybe something à la Gunstar Heroes (Alien Hominid was a bit of Contra and Metal Slug, but we haven't seen a world map one yet)?

Galaga Legions is a very fun little SHMUP, and manic too (but not like a Cave shooter)! I have to say, it's pretty hard, but once you get used to the various Galaga spawn points, you just got to place the satellites in the good way! So far, I've only completed Area 3 in Adventure Mode, and I'm going to take on Area 4 and 5 in Championship Mode. Be careful EaglesEye379, I'm coming for ya! ^^

Alien Hominid HD is, well, Alien Hominid! Same good game I've played on the GameCube. I'm only missing the hats and head chomp achievement, which is fricking impossible by the way... >_>

I've started Tales of Vesperia late last night (Castle Crashers sucked all my time), and I'm liking it so far! The only big complaint I have is Yuri's voice acting... Why is he not expressing any emotions? I've only noticed a bit more in the skits (I love them!), but other than that, he's pretty annoying in my opinion. I better get used to him though, because he's the key character in the game! Some other lines (and animations) are cheesy as well, but hey, it's a translated JRPG, so what else can I expect from it? The gameplay is still like the old Tales games, fun, addicting, fast-paced, skillful, etc. I have yet to try the Skills system, it looks a bit like Final Fantasy IX's, so that's a good thing. So far, so good!

With all that said, I'd like to play some 4-player co-op in Castle Crashers sometime with you guys! It could be fun, but I don't have a headphone so I won't be able to chat though...

Thanks, got it.  Way to contribute to your own downfall, fool!
