2006 FIFA World Cup (360) - Now do I grind through the challenges? Or do I use the achievement exploit that was said on TA? Questions, questions....

More Chivalry, getting better but there is a large random element to the game that gets frustrating. Also playing an archer is REALLY hard and I want to unlock the weapons for it but yeesh, I can't hit the broadside of a knight.

The last game i played as an archer it was probably the most broken class. You were fastest had awesome range and never missed what you were aiming at.

Exploit. Before it was common knowledge that game had a massive ratio because of the difficulty and once you have certain achievements unlocked the exploit is no longer usable if memory serves.

Played Out Run 2 SP (or some other Out Run 2 version) on a real life arcade machine today!

I remember that while on holiday 2 years ago, there was an OutRun 2 arcade cabinet that still had credit left.
I got two free plays.

On SEGA machines, if the credit button is flashing, press it and claim your free play.

Angry Birds Space Win8
All i have left is 250,000 blocks smashed, 5k birds fired 30 hours play time.
I think i should be around 60k blocks smashed. No clue how many birds fired and very close to 30 hours played since you can idle the game and it still counts time.

Ended up playing through the first stage of meet the robinsons.

Got in about 45 minutes of poker. Forgot about it... Hopefully tuesday night is the end of it.

Some more Angry Birds Space.
Helped a couple friends and their friends with Reach multiplayer stuff.

Did 2 stages in Voodoo Dice. Debating doing runs of the US versions of this and Castlevania SOTN so i can try and do the JP versions.(So if i decide to sell my JP box i only have one incomplete game left)

Got gold on the last of the stages in Red Bull Cracked Ice. I think i am going to have to take a break on this game for awhile. My arms are killing me.

EDIT
Went back to Aqua.
I have one achievement left in it. I have struggled and failed on the same stage every time i come back to it :-/

EDIT2
BEAT AQUA!!!
I actually died on the final stage right after activating my special that rains down shells from the sky(Naval Combat twinstick shooter) and almost threw my controller but it gave me the achievement! Must have finished clearing out baddies before my ship sank

finished borderlands 2 main story. took about the same amount of time as the first game, but i still have a lot of side quests to do. the first one i had finished up most of the side missions in about the same time as i'm up to in the 2nd now.

Gave ZombiU another shot last night. My experience was much better than the first time, now that I actually knew what I was doing. Reallllly intense!

Started and finished Monster Island Win8 last night.
Second person to finish it. I got cheated out of another 1st place completion :-/

Working on Braid on XBLA. When i initially played it i was just running through trying to get everything as fast as i could. No that i am treating it like a puzzle game instead of a platformer i am having much more success getting all the puzzle pieces.

Finished Braid. Still have 1 achievement left in it (for doing a speed run which i don't plan on torturing myself with) though so it doesn't go on the completed games list.

Loading up Age of Empires to make sure i am up to date on patches per Tynstar request.

Then i guess more Angry Birds Space...
