I'm not dead

Yes, the rumours of my demise are greatly exaggerated.

It has been some time since my last post but that was mainly due to the fact that the servers where I work took an unholy dump, meaning we've had no PC access for over a week. The fact it was Easter and our technical support are apparently incompetent didn't help either. Oh well - such is life. I tend to post while I'm having lunchables at the old office as I'm never really in the mood once I get home.

Still at least that gives me a bit more to ramble on about.

I'm still plodding on with my goal of attaining 90% completion, and I've just hit the 89% mark too so that is a minor victory at least. Though I will still require about 3k more points on games I've already started in order to get over the finish line. Whoop de doo!

Thankfully I've managed to polish off NHL 09 which was a fairly major scalp as it has been on my card for over a year now, I spent the last week grinding out the 150 Be a Pro wins I would need in order to get my Legend card and snag the last two achievements. Thank the Lord that is over. I like hockey games and it does make me proud to have completed all four of the NHL series on the 360 - but at the moment I'm kind of sick of playing it, ha ha!

I'm also finally back on the path towards Seriously in Gears of War. There were a few weeks of uncertainty where we had to reshuffle the team, but as of this weekend I will be at 7,000 kills. Yay! Though considering no one knows the exact goalpost for the achievement unlocking then who the hell knows how close I actually am to finishing it off. Not to mention the fact I also have the dreaded Annex to occupy my time.

Other random tasks including finishing off pretty much all of the Lips DLC, leaving me with just one achievement for 200k in stars to complete the game fully, and all the regular stuff on Castle Crashers - online boosting will take care of the rest. Boo!

I've also made some major progress on Resident Evil 5 and hope to get it all wrapped up in the next couple of weeks. Though I'm not looking forward to grinding out the team games online as it is a soul sapping experience.

The only new game on my tag was Prison Break and I can safely say it is the worst game I have played this year by a country mile - a stealth game where you can get spotted through walls and by people looking the opposite way (trust me - as the camera zooms in on the person that has allegedly spotted you) is quite simply broken. My review is less than kind. Still I managed to get the full 1k so it wasn't a total loss.

Next up...........well I don't really know. I'm hankering to get Left 4 Dead done with once and for all, but I'm also tempted to push through something easy like Brothers in Arms or just focus on Annex maybe. I've also still got Damnation and Operation Flashpoint to mop up as well. Ugh, why can't I just play one thing at a time?
