Trials HD “Marathon” Achievement

I am one persistent, stubborn, ornery ass son-of-a-bitch.
Trials HD is an amazingly fun motorcycle game.  Sort of like the old-school “Excitebike” game with a modern twist.  I have really enjoyed playing this game backwards and forwards; enduring literally countless moto-bike spills, endless attempt at completing nearly impossible tracks, and having a blast doing it.  GG [...]

XboxLIVE – Mission Victor Charlie: Success

The mission that I am dubbing “Vacation Catch-up” has been completed as a success.
As Vanlandw was away this week enjoying a much needed and EXTREMELY overdue vacation – I took it upon myself to catch him in gamerscore.  At the beginning of the week, I was almost 4,000 points behind him – so it was [...]

XboxLive Gamerscore

This weekend has turned into a massive achievement fest for Vanbergs and myself.
I’m not exactly sure when it happened; but at some point within the last 6-8 months I have become completely OCD about my gamerscore and rep on Xbox Live. I don’t spend countless hours getting every achievement in every game that I [...]

Avatar

I would like to add a disclaimer at the start of this post with 2 primary points:
1 – Spoilers are coming. If you haven’t seen Avatar and care about the story, then stop reading now!
2 – I am very picky and admittedly over-critical of cinema.
With those 2 points out of the way, I submit [...]

My Gamercard

Since I haven’t really posted any new pictures onto this site in probably over a year; I decided to sort of “steal” Vanlandw’s idea and throw my Gamercard into the sidebar.
My gamer score is up enough now where I’m not totally ashamed of it – and I like the look that some sort of picture [...]

Thanksgiving Weigh in

Over the past few years; my brother and I have gotten into a tradition where we do a “weigh in” for Thanksgiving to see who can eat more food.  We weigh ourselves IMMEDIATELY before sitting down to eat – and then again IMMEDIATELY after finishing our meals.
Results follow.  I have pretty much set a record [...]
