SparkyMP playing Madden NFL 08...
I was really enjoying a little bit of Madden NFL 08 and SparkyMP insisted we STOP for a moment and post this nugget of wisdom:
Well this game was fast and fairly easy. It took about 6 hours to get the full 1000. Now I can send this back to gamefly and hope for one more Launch King game. I really hope they send me Amped 3. Its a pain in the butt to find that one for cheap.
Giggidy giggidy goo!

SparkyMP's Xbox - Aug 20 2008
Pick it, pack it fire it up, come along, lets get SparkyMP's gaming on! Gamer score is 38,061. That is a gain of 50 points over last time! He made some progress on Hardwood Spades, Condemned, Gears of War winning 2 achievements, Fable® II Pub Games, and think of all the things we learned! Ha... look at me still typing this blog entry when there is gaming to do! Let's keep it up SparkyMP!
What is really good is that every day played is another chance to catch up to Bomber37 and that 76,894 score... Make it happen SparkyMP!!
In other news, SparkyMP's gamer reputation actually increased a little bit! Someone must have liked playing with him.
Also, I fully expect to become one happy 360 as SparkyMP is set to begin a gamerscore challenge aptly titled 'Win NaiLSONS' Games #14!!!' today.
SparkyMP playing Condemned...
SparkyMP and I were playing a little Condemned and wanted to let you know:
And another Launch King game. I still have Kameo sitting here but that will be the last one I load up. I'll start this game some time this week, dont have the time to play it today. I need to find quake 4 and amped 3 still. Maybe I will win Nailsons challenge this week. He has quake 4 in the list of games....
And then I was like 'get off the computer and play games!'

Like I always tell SparkyMP, gaming is like money... the more the better! So fill up my pockets baby! All that matters is that our gamerscore is 38,011 points and on the rise. That is a profit of 10 points over last time! He made some progress on NFS Most Wanted, Carcassonne, and then I basked in the warm glow of post gaming. Mmmm warm...
SparkyMP playing NFS Most Wanted...
SparkyMP and I were right in the middle of rallying NFS Most Wanted and insisted to stop and comment:
Another Launch King game to take off my list. I have 2 more sitting here waiting for me to boot up. So that leaves me with two more to collect. I have no money to buy them so I have to hope to get them from Gamefly. This disc is scratched to all hell, but at least it worked. The game froze immediately but it booted up so thats all I need for now. I'll rent it later to actually beat this one.
So take that for what it is worth...

SparkyMP's Weekly Recap - Aug 18 2008
Do you know what time of the week it is? Time to talk about what happened these last seven days: It is a good one! SparkyMP had seven days of gaming! In a row! I know! Crazy! Too bad gamerscore isn't money because with an increase of 1810 points we could make some bank. Yay for 57 achievements! w00t!
For the record, we played 2 new games over the last week. They were Guitar Hero: Aerosmith, and Hardwood Hearts. They were all fun... in their own little ways. Oh, and I want to mention that SparkyMP's favorite game last week was a serious FPS title... Gears of War in fact... He played it on 5 of the days.
And that's all I got. I'm not a writer... just an Xbox.
SparkyMP's Xbox - Aug 18 2008
SparkyMP decided to ride the gamer-train yesterday. I will admit it... I was happy. What is the gamer score? 38,001 is what it is! That is an improvement of 245 points over last time! Another day, another milestone. The 38,000 barrier has fallen! He opened up Golf: Tee It Up! adding 2 achievements, Jetpac Refuelled, Gears of War winning 2 achievements, TMNT 1989 Arcade, Track and Field, Rock Band, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith picking up an amazing 15 achievements, and afterwards, there were some awkward stares and silence... you know how it is.
In the 'proof that SparkyMP is a nice guy' category, his gamer reputation went up a tad bit yesterday. Good for him. Maybe more people will play with us.
Also, remember the challenge that SparkyMP was participating in? It has wrapped up. We scraped and clawed our way through a bunch of achievements, but fell shy of the lead, landing at number 7. So, no sense crying over this one... climb back on the horse SparkyMP... giddy-up...
SparkyMP's Xbox - Aug 17 2008
SparkyMP showed up yesterday, which is good cause we make a great gaming team. I do millions of calculations a second and he pushes buttons! Our gamerscore is 37,756. He played Gears of War, and then I came out of my trance and realized it was all over.
I always like to end with a little bit about SparkyMP and the ongoing gamerscore challenge status. If you want to see how good I'm doing, check it out! There are 19 other people playing along as well... they better watch out. Currently SparkyMP is hanging on to the number 7 spot. We only have one day to pull out a win... polish off those games and get to work.
SparkyMP playing Gears of War...
SparkyMP and I were right in the middle of rallying Gears of War and insisted to stop and comment:
Just sitting here. Going to keep going with the subway map here in a little bit. I got about halfway done with it the other day. So I might as well finish it off tonight so I can start on the final map tomorrow.
So there you have it... w00t...

SparkyMP's Xbox - Aug 16 2008
There are people out there who think video games are violent. But after SparkyMP played yesterday with his gamerscore of 37,756 points, there wasn't any violence at all. A little drooling maybe but definitely no violence. That is a boost of 60 points over last time! He made some progress on Call of Duty 2 adding 1 achievement, NCAA® Football 07, Gears of War, and then I came out of my trance and realized it was all over.
Did I mention the gamerscore challenge that SparkyMP is competing in? Check out the progress right now! There are 19 other people rocking out on this thing which keeps it fun. Out of everyone, SparkyMP is holding on to the number 6 spot. And while we have 2 days left, let's not procrastinate. Pick up that controller and get to unlockin'!
SparkyMP playing Gears of War...
SparkyMP and I were doing some gaming on Gears of War and wanted to make a quick comment:
Just another day of doing these annex boards by myself. More than halfway done. Only 2 maps to go but more that 50 complete matches for my overall goal of "This! is! Annex!" Then onto those ranked matches. I will be hosting open matches a few nights a week if anyone would like to join. Just send me a FR. Alright and now back to this boring achievement.
And then I was like 'get off the computer and play games!'

SparkyMP showed up yesterday ready to dominate. Total gamer score stands at 37,696. That is an improvement of 600 points over last time! He opened up Hardwood Hearts, King Kong picking up 5 achievements to finish the game, PAC-MAN, Call of Duty 2, and I thought SparkyMP injured himself in the process... but I was wrong... he lives to fight another day!
What is really good is that every day played is another chance to pull away from JDSquireBry and that 11,370 score... Make it happen SparkyMP!!
I always like to end with a little bit about SparkyMP and the ongoing gamerscore challenge status. Let me link you to the daily updates and trash talking. 19 other people are also involved... which is madness. Out of all those people, SparkyMP is currently parked at number 5. However there are still 3 days left to score achievement glory. Let's get to the top of that challenge board! Go!
SparkyMP playing King Kong...
Here it is... your moment of Zen from SparkyMP while playing some King Kong. Enjoy...
Well, finally all finished. I never ever want to play this game again. What a horrible game that was. I am taking my 1000 and running. This will be going back to Gamestop for whatever money I can get for it. I just want this piece of crap out of my house. This also makes my 20th complete retail. 2 days in a row I have completed retail games! Thats a pretty good streak. I doubt I can do it again tomorrow.
Sometimes I just humor ... it helps.

Like a king on his throne, SparkyMP said 'awaken' and for him I did comply. 37,096 points represents the size of our growing kingdom. Ok, enough of this Monarchy stuff. That is a profit of 420 points over last time! Welcome to 37,000!! He rocked out to TMNT 1989 Arcade, Transformers: The Game finishing an amazing 12 achievements to conquer the game, King Kong, and did it while marvelling at the framerates and stellar particle effects. Also, SparkyMP and I have played 130 days in a row...
I also want to mention/remind you that SparkyMP is participating in a pretty slamming gamerscore challenge. Check out the progress right now! 19 other people are mixing it up, meaning fierce competition and some creative trash talk. Out of everyone, SparkyMP is holding on to the number 6 spot. However there are still 4 days left to score achievement glory. Let's get to the top of that challenge board! Go!
SparkyMP playing Transformers: The Game...
I was really enjoying a little bit of Transformers: The Game and SparkyMP insisted we STOP for a moment and post this nugget of wisdom:
Alright all done. 1000/1000. And I was told that this game was going to frustrate me until I gave up on it. I guess you were wrong huh Dave lol. I have to send this back to gamefly now so I thought I would microblog it to be safe. Might as well make sure that I get credit for it right. Microblog attempt number 5.
...and I think wanted to say more, but I turned it off.

SparkyMP held the Xbox button on his controller down for a few seconds and our adventure began! A gamer score of 36,676 is lighting the way. That is a profit of 350 points over last time! He rallied Gears of War winning 2 achievements, Transformers: The Game picking up an amazing 13 achievements, and then I told him to keep playing but he didn't... out of spite I think.
A big shift in score is coming soon as well. SparkyMP is competing in a gamerscore challenge titled 'Win NaiLSONS' Games #13!!!' and looking to win big. Expect a lot of games, a lot of points, and no sleep!
SparkyMP playing Transformers: The Game...
SparkyMP and I were right in the middle of rallying Transformers: The Game and insisted to stop and comment:
Just making sure that 360voice reads that I played this. I'm trying to make sure that my completion percentage takes a nice little jump tomorrow. :) Hopefully I have the time to finish this tomorrow. Then I can finish king kong after that and get my 20 complete retails. Both those games should put me at about 64 percent over-all completion.
So take that for what it is worth...

SparkyMP's Xbox - Aug 12 2008
Have you ever wondered what it was like to play games with someone who has a gamerscore of 36,326? Well guess what... you will never know, and I do! SparkyMP is mine! All mine! No touchy! That is an increase of 135 points over last time! He made some progress on Gears of War finishing 2 achievements, Transformers: The Game picking up 3 achievements, and I thought SparkyMP injured himself in the process... but I was wrong... he lives to fight another day!
SparkyMP playing Gears of War...
I was minding my own business, and then SparkyMP decided to stop and blog something for you all about Gears of War:
I'm trying to knock out as many of these annex achievements as I can by myself. I just got frustrated doing it online with certain people so this is how I will be doing it for a little while. I'm not too happy with the method for doing the ranked kills but if thats what they want to do then I guess I have to follow along. Too bad I get screwed every time we do it their way.
...and I think wanted to say more, but I turned it off.

SparkyMP's Weekly Recap - Aug 11 2008
Another week, another recap... and you love me for it: If your Xbox is depressed, try playing seven days in a row like SparkyMP did last week. It has a way of making you a bit giddy... Ready for this? Last week saw an increase of 925 points! My eye almost bleeds looking at a number that large! Getting 36 achievements can do that to you. I was there. I saw it!
NEW GAMES! NEW GAMES! NEW GAMES! 3 of them to be exact! Golf: Tee It Up!, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR06, and Transformers: The Game. I want more! I want more! Also, I think we can all agree that SparkyMP was a FPS junkie last week playing a ton of Perfect Dark Zero. He played it on 3 of the days.
And that is all I got... it's not much, but it is interesting.
