Achievements this week

Achievements this week

It was interesting to see just how many achievements I ended up with over the week (a lot less then I thought :) ). I think I may continue doing this once a week and see if it catches on or not.


Last week I ended up picking up 10 achievements for 150 points. And yes, I did just start at the top of my list and play through some of the games I've bought and didn't finish.

This week I'll be looking to beat 10 (with a new title, that shouldn't be too difficult)

How did you guys do?

Once I saw your post saying

Once I saw your post saying to try and do that for a non-release week, I did just that and did rather good....picked up Undertow after initially playing it back when it was free, and am down to needing only 3 achievements for that, when I only had one to begin with. Also finished up Arkadian Warriors last achievement I needed, and got one each in Worms, Small Arms, Carcassone, and Brain Challenge as well.

Woulda tried to check out the developer gaming night for UT last night, but unfortunately that's the same time as some tv viewing/general hanging out goes on here with some friends and I. Gonna shoot for next week though if they're still going on!

Edit: Thanks T for the Frenzy tip on Undertow. Was trying to do it alone and kept having a pain of a time. Gonna hafta bug people now to get them to play this more if they still have it!

And for this coming week, I'm shooting for finishing stage 100 on Gauntlet finally, and maybe, just maaaayyybbbee getting that 800k in Streets of Rage 2. If it comes down to it though, still got plenty of Sonic achievements to get, and every Bomberman one!

Last week I played Undertow,

Last week I played Undertow, Worms, Rush N' Attack, Contra, Feeding Frenzy, and Boom Boom Rocket (and pretty much all the XBLA titles that came with the Xbox 360 Arcade console) and snagged about 350+ points. I know it was over that number, but I don't know the exact number.

This past week I've gotten

This past week I've gotten 105 points, with Aegis Wing, Carcassonne, Bliss Island, and Rez HD. Most of it was Rez, I just plowed through Areas 3-5 with one life whereas I had gotten stuck at the Area 3 boss before. Great game.

Boy getting this 800k in

Boy getting this 800k in Streets of Rage 2 is such a pain in the arse. More than halfway there though with 8 lives to spare still! Finished my last achievement I needed for Crystal Quest yesterday, and also got a new E4 one (died on stage 70 of revenge, boo) and Brain Challenge. Does anyone that has Heavy Weapon still need the achievement for beating the game itself? I have my save file on the last stage, but can't for the life of me seem to beat it on my own. Just too many damn missles n crap to dodge....guess more would come from more players gaming though. I'd still like to try that sometime soon if anyone's down. Also need the lvl 20 co-op Gauntlet one if anyone needs that and wants to work on it sometime as well.

Aegis Wing has to be one of the most boring free games I"ve played. You can add Undertow to that list as well.

Since my post a couple days

Since my post a couple days ago, I've only managed a couple more XBLA achievements....2 more for Carcassone, and finishing the main Band of Bugs campaign. I just keep trying too hard for that last SoR2 one, which I will get....it's just tedious.

I'm all ears Tomacco.
