Hold on tight! Here we go!! The Gamerscore Challenge known as 'The Challenge of Euphoria' is in action with 7 people duking it out. Everyone's dusting off their old games and picking up some new ones for this challenge. Who is the favorite? Who is the underdog? Who is going to win? In 30 days we will know!
Indeed.
Yes indeed it was! XD
It's so much fun when there's a lot of people....too bad most of them weren't real serious about it.
Haha, wow.
That was a great challenge.
Good game! I actually had some competition this time.
VICTORY SHALL BE MINE!!
I hope you guys have got some some popcorn, because this is getting good.
It's going to be a close race for 3rd, it looks like.
To Amanda's comment, I would be pi$$ed.
:P
Curse you band camp!!! You're making me unable to gain anything. XD
That would just be so wrong....XD
Wouldn't it be hilarious if Walter came back from his trip and had like...3,000 points to add? XD
Good lord, Kern.
You're a freaking beast!
Hm....I'll need to put mine in and see if it has problems now....I hope it doesn't. >_<
No it's neither, It's all the damn problems that the game is having in general. It wasn't this bad when it first came out, then an update hit and screwed everyone's copy up, now... it's pure crap.
Well I've never heard of that before....sounds really weird. Is it your internet lagging the 360 in some way or is it the 360 not able to process all those things at once? o.o
It's not that the disc can't read the game, it's that the game can't be played with my xbox plugged into the internet without it crapping out. NG2 has some serious issues that have yet to be resolved.
As for the challenge overall, I might be getting a new game this weekend but I'm not sure, so better watch out.
Not exactly what I was implying, but okay. XD
And the victory wouldn't be BS, I've just been working hard on the gain. =P
Why? So you can lock in your bs victory?
*shakes head*
Not gonna happen again.
Urgh....this is fun...right? I wish I could have made it shorter. XD
Well this sucks. If "Green Grass and High Tides" wasn't such a hard ass song, I'd have beaten Rock Band on expert by now. ><
Damn. All I'm getting now are lousy 10 point achievements.
*frustrated face*
I hate it when it can't read the disc....it's such a pain.
I can't even play one of my games that I was hoping to play during this contest...
Microsoft sucks.
With Insane mode....anything is possible! XD
Hey man, I'm earning my achievements too.
Hehehe, except I'm earning all my achievements the hard way. XD
Not buying new games and actually working to get the hard achievements for games. XP
... Kern, Caboose... I dislike you right now. lol
I doubt it.
There's still 21 days left, I'm sure you'll be able to catch up. XD
At this point, it's just a battle between me and you, Kern.
And I'm not even sure if I can catch up.
Nyan~ X3
I hate you, Kern....
Watch out, Kern....
The achievements I'm getting in Rock Band are taking a while...I'll keep playing Scene it? to see if I can get anymore achievements.
Hehe, curse Turok! XD
And Caboose has new games, so you guys need to watch out. lol
Damnit kern! I thought I was doing good too....Turok doesn't have enough achievements.
Hehehe.
Iis are going to own you guyz.
Keep it clean guys....no quarelling in the challenge. I think I'm going to delete these two comments due to the fact that they have nothing pertaining to the challenge.
fu#k and i have to go on a 2 day trip tomorrow so i wont be geting points then!!! good job kern
Oops! XD
What was that you were saying, Spartan?
Jesus H, Kern.
I wish you'd quit pulling all these achievements out of your ass.
XD
Just you wait, Spartan.....
Eventually one of us will catch up. XD
LOL I is still wining
I hate you, Spartan.
there's my point's
sh*t i have not got 1 achievement today. :(
We shall see! XD
You f***ers are going down!
Oooo....look at the pretty lines. XD
Haha, spoils of war! SPOILS OF WAR!!! XD
Riiight, Chris. You just keep telling yourself that.
Yes good luck to all, and to the victor go the spoils. What spoils you ask? Well you'll all find out once I win.
Honor Rules, no Avatar. lol
lol
Rawr!!! We're going to have fun, I'm betting. Good luck to all. ^_^
BLAAAAAARG we have to wait a day? Today's my day off work! ><
