    How does it work?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,618 ✭✭✭Mr Freeze


    you have to set up an account on the site if you haven't one already..

    Then just join a challenge, and for the duration of it, just play your xbox, getting achivement points, and that site tracks each person in it, displaying a line graph and an update each on everyones progress...and the person with the most achivements gained wins...(No real prizes)...

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,661 ✭✭✭✭Helix


    dont get to play games properly enough for this to be worthwhile :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    Signed up there but my Gamescore is pretty poor. Still always good to have a challenge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,213 ✭✭✭Keith186


    Is this not kinds crap. Do you have to play certain games or anyones you like?

    If you can play any game you could just rent out some crap games that are easy to get points on and it wouldn't be too much of a challenge.

    Its a badge of honour (supposedly) to not have played Avatar....it shows it on your 360Voice profile 'Played Avatar = No'...

    I've pretty much played all the games i want to play that are out already.

    Glad there's a million new games out in the next while! :)

    Where do you find the time?

    How long would you play the Xbox per day, roughly?

    If it's a work day, i'd play for 2 to 4 hours, if i'm off work, anything from 4 to 9 hours i suppose!

    I likes my gaming! :)

    Do you just play Xbox?

    Me? yeah, I tried other consoles (PS3, Wii, PSP, DS) they just don't cut the mustard for me. I sold them all after 4 to 6 weeks! There are a 3 or 4 games i would like for the PS3 but that's not enough to warrant buying one again.

    What about PC gaming, die-hard gamers are always saying it's THE format to play on...

    Thats what i used to say until the girlfriend bought me an xbox at christmas last year, i would never go back to PC gaming now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭silvine


    ...but the Xbox is awful for RTS games. You can't install user made mods and you have to pay for maps for games like COD4. And a keyboard and mouse give you more control in FPS games.

    I never got into PC gaming, i'd much rather be sitting on the couch chilling out whilst gaming rather than sitting at a computer. I know pc gamers will also say a keyboard & mouse is the ultimate way to go but i much prefer a controller, the 360 one is the business!

    Also i sit at a PC all day at work so the last thing i want to do when i get home is sit in front of a PC again! I have a 42inch plasma hooked up to my 360, way better than a pokey monitor! :)

    King Kong is similar. All 1,000 points in 5 or 6 hours!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,618 ✭✭✭Mr Freeze


    I played King Kong for the 1000 points around 6 months ago, it was the most boring thing, never again will i play one of these easy 1000 points but crap games again, it was a nightmare..
