Killing Spree

Got my 5G added to my gamerscore with this killing spree. Hehe.

Sorry about the Silverlight.

Edit: Fixed video.

My Mongoose Mowdown

There's Doin's a Transpirin'!

I downloaded and played on the new Gears of War maps last night with KBB7769. Good times. Pure pwnage was handed out...by him. The new maps are pretty sweet. Worth $10? I guess. I paid it since I didn't want to wait till September for them to become free.

My e-mail was read on the Xbox360 Fancast this week. I criticized Knuckles Dawson for talking to fast and saying FTW too much. I have to admit I was a little drunk when I sent that. I hope he didn't take it wrong. It's hard to convey sarcasm in an e-mail. He's obviously a winner.

The Basics

I read a post on Xbox360Fanboy about the new GRAW2 game hitting stores in March and they mentioned a feature that it will have that not many other 360 games have had before it. An achievement tracker. That got me to thinking about other features that should be no-brainers when it comes to 360 games.

• The ability to save anywhere. Pretty much the anti-Dead Rising save system. Quake 4 and Crackdown have done this right.
• The aforementioned achievement tracker. I want to know how many kills I need to get that 10 points, dammit!
• Halo 2 matchmaking. I would play Gears of War day in and day out if it had decent matchmaking.
• Free themes and gamertiles. Have them be unlockable with the achievements so I can show how awesome I am with my gamertile. Is that too much to ask for my $60?
• More uses for the Vision Camera!

I might think of more later, but that's all I got right now. They've done so many things right. Microsoft just needs to do some fine tuning.
