Bolt, Eat Lead, some of those Sega Arcade games, Silent Hill, Ghostbusters, Jericho and a few more that I can't recall. Wall-E too, I think. I had a load of older games, such as Jericho, that I've had for ages so I just focused on finishing that and getting the majority of achievements. If you look at most of my recent games, they're 80%+ completed.

Yea there's no way i'd catch this guy!

I'm only playing games i wanna play, rather than games just for the sake of gettin Points.

Haha my gamerscore is only 5,200:eek:

I don't have regular access to Live. Xbox upstairs - no phone line. Phone line downstairs - no Xbox. As was said at the start of the competition. I assure you that no cheating was done. What's the point?

I didnt read that. In that case, fair play to ya.

You know, heaven forbid someone actually win the competition. Between people moaning and accusing me of cheating, this will be my first, and last, entry.

Cant understand the moaning and accusations either. Its a gamerscore competition ffs and you clearly stated your case before it started. If someone had a problem with playing certain games then they should have said it before it started like we did for the Xmas one.

The winner in that one had almost 10000 also...

If I sign up now will it count the achievements I've gotten since the start of the month?

chrislad

Nope. There's going to be one in July so you can enter that when it's set up. Sign up for this month ended on 30th May.

corcaigh07

looking forward to the july challange, sounds fun.

docdolittle

wow... not one point gained by me.... I'v about 6 games sitting here still not played, so hopefully the july challange, I'll do a bit better Dam CoD4 taking all my time up!!

AdMMM

I think there'll have to be a 2 or 3 day signup period for July's competition to allow those who participated in this months competition to sign up for the next one as you can't enroll in more than one at once. Will post up the details as soon as Junes race wraps up.

With 2 months to go, are we all playing for second already?

chrislad

Can you just run it from, like, July 3rd to August 31st and be done with creating one each month?

AdMMM

I can't set it up like that, but I've asked the powers that be if they can manually create a challenge to cater for our needs. Hopefully will find out by tomorrow.

Mr Freeze

1.wanosd: +13,105
2.The Batman IRL +5,410
3.limerickred: +5,350


The 360voice page probably wont update them around until it updates later today and sends the auto mail out.

Sign Up For July HERE

This one will start on Saturday morning, giving people plenty of time to sign up, as well as other people who didn't take part in the June one to give it a go.

I think there should be one condition though; if you intend on playing most of your games offline, or don't have continuous access to Live, then please give regular updates either on here or the shoutbox on the challenge page.

That should stop certain persons whinging.

TheChrisD

Since I've already "used up" all those new games down in Cork, I guess I won't be scoring all that much this month.

Although then again this big fat bank account might have other things to say

I have to say I was a bit disheartened to see someone score as many points in as little as two weeks, as I had gained in 2 years playing. You machine!

chrislad

That won't be happening this month. I had 2 weeks off so I just finished games I had. I'll try to just keep my lead more than anything this month. Have 14 days straight at the end of the month so that's gonna hurt!
