Have they done away with the "Recently Downloaded" section under games? I can't seem to find it any more.

The true sign of desperation would be if they have all the achievement points in Yaris.

I want to say they show up at (or near) the top of your main game library list.

The only achievement that took anytime at all in that game IF YOU WERE ANY GOOD AND DID NOT STINK AT IT was the collect so many coins or something like that.

Oh yeah, I just noticed your other post MC, I definitely should be noted as one of the resident "achievement whores' on this site as well if we have a Mt. Rushmore for that title

Hi. I have 200 in PocketBike Racer. I just noticed you were the only one from here that actually finished it and pointed it out. Personally I didn't even download it.

And yeah, I didn't notice your overall score. As one of only 3 people here over 100k, and #4 being 30k behind, I'd say you qualify as one or our Resident Achievement Whores.

No worries MC obviously Honestly, as much crap everyone gives the game, yes it is very plain but since it was free it gave a decent challenge to finish it up. You should at least give it a try as they say.

So I moved on to Point Prometheus last night in Bioshock causing an autosave to occur. After a few seconds of "saving content", I got a nice little error from my xbox telling me to select a different location because my HDD was full with only 7MB free. Selected my MU and continued.

I really need my new hard drive

I saw you playing it. First time I assume based on your achievements. What do you think?

I like it well enough. As you know I'm not a fan of the genre, but I make exceptions for solid stories and experiences. I was interested in it before it came out, but I just never got around to it until the BS2 teaser came out and I was told (by you, I believe) to get off my ass and play it. So I did.

From that thread:

Makes sense now.

I totally missed it the first time but L&O had a brilliant choice of wording on that one.

You guys make me feel inadequate about my gamer score. It's like gym class all over again.

Kij is right in there with me on that one.

The wide release of Banjo-Kazooie is the only thing that hit. I think there is also a Marble Blast Ultra expansion as well.

Speaking of, having canceled my Nuts & Bolts preorder, $15 is highway robbery for a N64 game.

Looking on the Spotlight section on the dashboard, it says there are new avatar clothes available for Winter (coats and gloves and stuff), but I don't see them anywhere in the Avatar Customization section.

Anyone seen them yet, or know how to get them?
