lol, how sad is having to lie about your e-penis??!

I completely agree about achievements, the best two things Microsoft has done for gamers is Achievement points and Xbox Live. Those two things alone have really helped to reshape console gaming for the coming years.

But I know I send mixed signals about Achievements, I DO love them and I DO try for them... but it just has to be a game I really really like for that to happen. Since I play way too many games, mostly on a whim, and make purchases without renting I still end up with lots of games I never begin to deem worthy of trying that hard in. I mean, my list has plenty of games with 5 or 10 achievement points and that's it.. It's not that I suck that much it's just that I played it and didn't like it so much. So, my completion rating will always be shot. Plus there are stingy games, like Fear, you can beat Fear on Medium and having like 85 points. That's just silly. Beating a game on Medium should at least reward you with 400-500 points. Perfect Dark Zero is the worst. I beat it multiple times, single and co-op and on hard. I also played plenty of games online and lots of offline bot matches. In the end I have 215 points. I hate these games that only fully reward the player who plays nothing else, at all, and just grinds the same game for a straight year, screw that unless the game actually deserves it. End rant :)

That's it, I'm officially done with Street Fighter 4. I'm also boycotting all Capcom games that don't have Dead Rising in the name or Resident Evil 5 because I already pre-ordered it.

Seriously though, since when does tough AI have to equal, uses it's computer brain to perfectly counter every single move you do?

That is not fun, it is in no way even amusing.

I'm tired of games thinking they have to be so hard you do the same thing over and over and over again just trying to get lucky and still die repeatedly. I want a game to be a fun stress relieving activity, not the opposite. And games now days get off way to much on their ability to kick your ass no matter how seasoned you are.

Wow look at how many people are picking up Halo Wars. http://www.mygamercard.net/clboard.php?id=qfxsTIZa&g=702

Im surprised due to the fact that other RTSes dont normally have enough members to have a decent race.

It's Halo what do you expect? It could be Master Chief Cooking Sim and people would still buy it off the charts. On top of that it's supposed to be really good.

^^^ I'm really enjoying it myself right now. I haven't touched SFIV since I bought it lol

Whew! Would've had a pretty bad week, but I was saved by Sonic!

He really is a better video game hero than that lousy Mario, who has never given me any gamerscore.

Great update... too bad I wasnt bothering with FEAR2 multiplayer to move up the Tournament. Finishing the GTA4 DLC will only net me about 200 more.

By the way Resident Evil 5 achievements have been revealed - http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/resident-evil-5/achievements/
