SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 20 2008
I thought maybe the power was out yesterday... imagine my surprise when SpeleoFool hit the switches! Gamerscore stands at 95,636. That is a boost of 230 points over last time! He rocked out to Marvel Ult. Alliance, Beowulf acquiring 3 achievements to complete the game, Chessmaster Live adding an amazing 8 achievements, Command & Conquer 3, and after that powered me down without even saying good night. I mean what the heck?
This is really good stuff... the more we play, the more chances we have to leave AxGryndr in the dust. Call me crazy, but a 80,251 point cushion is not nearly enough for me...
Oh also, It's all over man! ALL OVER! The gamerscore challenge called 'ZeroDesolation's Challenge 02' is through after an intense 5 days. We scraped and clawed our way through a bunch of achievements, but fell shy of the lead, landing at number 4. That's ok though... at least playing against the other 19 gamers was enough incentive to get more points! I like points.
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 19 2008
SpeleoFool needed a friend like me yesterday... I could see it in his eyes. I am there for you brother. Remember that. Gamer score is 95,406. He rallied Battlefield 2: MC, Beowulf, and before I even realized it, he was finished and I was sad.
Hey, I almost forgot! The gamerscore challenge that SpeleoFool is competing in is on day 4 and we're doing our best to win this thing. If you want to follow along at home, catch the action here. There are 19 other people involved. I didn't know SpeleoFool even knew that many people. Out of everyone, SpeleoFool is holding on to the number 3 spot. With only one day left though, we need to make that last big push!
SpeleoFool's Weekly Recap - Aug 18 2008
This entry is a little different than the others. It is a recap of the last week of gaming. Check it: It is a good one! SpeleoFool had seven days of gaming! In a row! I know! Crazy! This wasn't just low-key gaming either... our score bounced 2965 freakin' points! Can you believe it? In one week? YES! Getting 104 achievements has that effect.
I prodded SpeleoFool to try 4 games last week: Battlefield 2: MC, Beowulf, Chessmaster Live, and Scene It? LCA. It was a mix of good and bad. Also, I think we can all agree that SpeleoFool's favorite game last week was Beowulf. He played it on 4 of the days.
So that's it for now. It was a good week. On to the next one.

He rallied Chessmaster Live gaining 3 achievements, Rainbow Six® Vegas 2, Beowulf gaining an amazing 13 achievements, Battlefield 2: MC finishing an amazing 9 achievements, and SpeleoFool won't admit this, but I had to force him to stop.

He made some progress on GRAW 2, Lost Cities, Beowulf acquiring an amazing 7 achievements, and afterwards, there were some awkward stares and silence... you know how it is.

SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 15 2008
There are people out there who think video games are violent. But after SpeleoFool played yesterday with his gamerscore of 94,171 points, there wasn't any violence at all. A little drooling maybe but definitely no violence. That is a profit of 30 points over last time! He opened up Beowulf adding 1 achievement, and I think there was some random Live Marketplace browsing, but I wasn't paying attention.
What is really good is that every day played is another chance to catch up to Stignob 10K and that 105,065 score... Make it happen SpeleoFool!!
Also, SpeleoFool went and accepted a gamerscore challenge, so I'm stocking up on coffee for the overtime I'll be working over the coming days. Check it out... the challenge is called 'ZeroDesolation's Challenge 02'.
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 14 2008
SpeleoFool rocked out with 94,141 points. That is a profit of 25 points over last time! He rocked out to Scene It? LCA winning 1 achievement to defeat the game, and almost cried with joy. I have that effect on people. Also, SpeleoFool and I have played 330 days in a row...
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 13 2008
I saw SpeleoFool walk by yesterday morning... I was hoping he would come play and he did. 94,116 points and climbing. That is an increase of 440 points over last time! That puts us above 94,000 points! He played Scene It? LCA finishing an amazing 17 achievements, as well as basked in the glow of my great blade navigation interface!
Oh hey, remember the challenge that SpeleoFool was in? It has come to an end. It wasn't even a challenge really. It was more like a declaration of experience and skill as SpeleoFool won it all! I am king of all the land! Bring me the finest meats and cheeses for the victory feast (and some new batteries)!
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 12 2008
I thought maybe the power was out yesterday... imagine my surprise when SpeleoFool hit the switches! Gamerscore stands at 93,676. That is an improvement of 1,235 points over last time! That puts us above 93,000 points! He made some progress on Lost Via Domus finishing an amazing 16 achievements to master the game, Scene It? LCA finishing an amazing 24 achievements, and did it while marvelling at the framerates and stellar particle effects.
Did I mention the gamerscore challenge that SpeleoFool is competing in? Don't take my word for it!

I've made a wager with the 29 other Xboxes in the Challenge -- let's not blow this thing...
SpeleoFool's Weekly Recap - Aug 11 2008
Watch closely because here comes the recap... if you aren't paying attention, you might miss it: If your Xbox is depressed, try playing seven days in a row like SpeleoFool did last week. It has a way of making you a bit giddy... Too bad gamerscore isn't money because with an increase of 3115 points we could make some bank. Yay for 137 achievements! w00t!
I feel a little spoiled getting 3 new games to play in the same week. With titles like Kung Fu Panda, Lost Via Domus, and WALL•E, who can go wrong with that right? Also, by my expert calculations, SpeleoFool's favorite game last week was Viva Piñata. He played it on 4 of the days.
Another week finished... staring down the barrel of another one. Check back to find out what happens!
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 11 2008

SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 8 2008
When you want to get on the cover of the gaming magazines, you have to play every day! I keep telling SpeleoFool that as motivation... yesterday it worked! We went for a spin... played some games... ended with a score of 89,761. That is a boost of 220 points over last time! He made some progress on The Darkness gaining an amazing 12 achievements, and then... oh wait... no and then!!
Oh, also... we're probably going to see a lot more of SpeleoFool over the next few days as well. It is because he is in a gamerscore challenge titled 'ZeroDesolation's Challenge 01'. BRING IT ON!
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 7 2008
Have you ever wondered what it was like to play games with someone who has a gamerscore of 89,541? Well guess what... you will never know, and I do! SpeleoFool is mine! All mine! No touchy!

SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 6 2008
I had to set aside my plans for world domination yesterday when SpeleoFool decided to game. Our score is 89,476 and always improving! That is a boost of 150 points over last time! He opened up The Darkness acquiring an amazing 13 achievements, Viva Piñata finishing 1 achievement to defeat the game, and it's a good thing he stopped there, otherwise the concentrated awesomeness could have blown out my circuits.
SpeleoFool's Xbox - Aug 5 2008
SpeleoFool decided to game yesterday and we rocked out like the three musketeers, except there were only two of us... 89,326 points of total gamerscore and counting... He played Viva Piñata, and after we were done, SpeleoFool hugged me with his eyes. It was one of those platonic hugs... you know...
Good thing SpeleoFool and I got some play time in! Every day we play is another opportunity to pull away from deadinside247 and that 43,667 gamerscore!
SpeleoFool playing Viva Piñata...
Here it is... your moment of Zen from SpeleoFool while playing some Viva Piñata. Enjoy...
Whee! I hope I didn't kill my streak. I played Viva Pinata all day long, but I didn't get any achievements and didn't load a second game, and now it's after midnight. That should be a shame.
...and I think wanted to say more, but I turned it off.
