    Well this is shocking, isn't it? I'm late again with my Achievement Update by more than a week! College has been sucking up my time so don't think that I have forgotten about you guys. So without further ado, LET'S DO THIS!

    So this was a Guitar Hero-themed week (or weeks). Also, my birthday is on Friday! I turn 18 for those wondering. To be honest, I don't really care. The only thing I can't wait for about it is the fact that it will be easier for me to get a job now that I'm 18. I did have an interview at Wendy's today though so hopefully that comes to pass. If not, I just try again. Another good thing is that I might get some games, movies, and most importantly cash! I will be getting at least $50 which I will be using to pay off the rest of my $80 MW2 pre-order. The rest will be used for my tough, tough decision of Assassin's Creed 2 or Borderlands. However, I have just about no time for games right now so I may just save the money until I have time to play some games again.

    Until next time, expect a blog on Friday (my birthday)!

    @RHCPfan24: Really all of the songs work for that game. As much as I was hoping "Play That Funky Music" wouldn't be good, it kinda, sorta is. And thank you.

    Happy early birthday.  Also, save that money for eggs and bread, sir.  I will guarantee you that eggs and bread will make a huge difference when you run out of food.  It's quick, easy, and if you've got a little cheese laying around, then you're good to go!!!  Unless your family is loaded and/or you are just living with the family still...because that means you're lucky as shit. 
     
    THEN AGAIN...I smoked a fuckload of pot in college...so I was always broke outside of money for bills and pot. 
     
    As for achievements, I broke 38,000 this week.  Don't know if you've gotten to play ODST yet, but that's some good achievement points to pull.  I haven't done my Legendary run yet, but then again, I've got a ton of games going at once.  How you feelin' about those GH5 achievements?  It seems like they won't be nearly as difficult as they have been, and I'm generally pleased with that list.  I haven't gotten as far into the career as you have, but I'll pick up on it eventually. 
     
    Piece out, achievement brethren.  May the cheevs be with you.  Nanoo nanoo.

    I had a really productive achievement week, S ranking Pure. Now I'm working on Nuts & Bolts (925/1250).

    @StarFoxA: DOOD!  I think I'll need to pick that game up so we can whore the multiplayer cheevs!!!  I've just gotta buy another copy of it. 
     
    Also, how hard is Pure to S rank...and why haven't you S ranked RFG yet?!

    @jakob187: Pure just takes some time and effort, but it's not that difficult of an S rank. X360A has all the information you need.
     
    And dude, I have all of the Banjo-Kazooie multiplayer achievements except one, which requires the DLC.
     
    Oh, and RFG? One word: Revolutionary

    I'm living with my parents right now but once I get a job, then I'll be moving out. Congrats on 38k! As for GH5, the achievements look really easy so I'm happy with that.

    Congrats man! I wish I had more S ranks but I guess 4 isn't a bad number since two of those are Call of Duty 2 and 4.

    @GamerGeek360: I only have four retail S ranks myself: Call of Duty 4, Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, The Bourne Conspiracy, and Pure. I have five arcade S ranks, though.
