The Month of May

May 7, 2007

May is a big month for Xbox 360 users. We are getting a major dashboard update, 4 new Gears of War multiplayer maps, Halo 3 beta, Crackdown DLC screenshot, and more! I have missed a couple of days due to… laziness. So I am going to make this count. New info on Devil May Cry 4, Crackdown, and more… I will be updating this post through out the day so check back as info is added. Here we go!

Real Time Worlds has released a screenshot of the Crackdown DLC that we have all been waiting for since the release. Team Xbox got the scoop on it. It shows 4 dune buggies on the beach. What does this mean? Four player Co-Op? maybe. They saw it will bring new vehicles and a new game type. I do not know what to expect. No word on the achievements.

Devil May Cry has a new face! And it will not only be seen by PlayStation enthusiest. The loved Donte has been replaced by Nero in Devil May Cry 3! The gameplay is still the same just improved. We are told that we won’t be disappointed. Team Xbox has the screenshots.

more to come… hopefully.

Gears of War Training Day… and more to come!

May 3, 2007

Well im guessing you all know I play Gears of War almost everyday. When I found out the new map pack was coming out I know it was a must have! As most of you that I game with regularly, I live in Texas and I am in high school. The school I goto starts at 7:30 am every morning and I get up at 5 am(exhasting). As soon as I got up is started downloading the map pack so I could have it definitly by the time I got home and I did! When I got on later that day I was talking to my friends and they said they bought the maps but they couldnt download them… bummer I like playing with my friends. So I resorted to playing random player matches. The maps are very nice. I played the bridge one first and then the green house one and the process one. All nice! lol I forgot what the other one was opps! After I played the bridge one again I found out you can go to the side of the bridge and go straight for torque bow and I guess the other teams I played never figured this out so I kept getting carzy kills. When my friends m4rk0551, Stealthy Wizard, and Big Z 009 got on I played single games with all of them. Stealthy helped me a little on my much needed weapon skills(everyone that has played with me know im better then average but have no skill with anything but the shotty). If anyone wants to help me on my snipe, torque… boom… hammer.. skills please let me know I need practice bad. I am ashamed the I am good but can not use any other weapons.

At the end of almost everyday I try to get on UNO. It’s a nice way to relax after a good day of killing on Gears and have nice conversations with people. So if anyone wanted to join me nightly just drop by or message me.

The Rundown on Crackdown

May 2, 2007

As my first post I would like to detail what I intend to put up here daily. The plan I have for this blog is to post what I did and who i played with and making their gamertags into catagories so that they and you can see when and what i played with them. Also I will refer to everyone using their gamertags.

Me and m4rk0551 showed Xbox Live what team work was all about in Gears of War… with friendly fire on haha. He also helped me with a little boom and sniper training that I really need. I admit right now that I suck with every weapon but shotgun. Dont hate on me even tho I use the shotgun you can ask anyone I have played with I can definitly hold my ground.

So today I was aiming for the Ring Leader achievement along with help from Skyless Day. They are quite challenging but it is the last achievement I need for Crackdown. That means 100%!! til the expansion!! Right now it is storming rather bad here in Texas so I put the games down for a little while just incase.

 360gl.com got a new feature today: The New Hottness. It is a member of the month kind of thing that I am hoping to receive soon. Right now it is Mrs Achievement and she really earned it for all the help and information she supplies to the 360gl community.
