Another week, another couple of achieves. Not many, but I made due. Now that my WoW time is expired I will be trying to get back to a certain game that needs to be played more. So let's just get this gamerscore train going! CHOO-CHOO! (I promise I will stop that now)

So can you guess what game I have gone back to? I'll give you a hint, GUNS! Anyways, I'm back on that game and I'm loving it still. I need to find more time but obviously school has been taken up most of my time. Also, I'm still playing MW2 multiplayer along with Spec Ops to round out those achievements. I need to find half of the intel still along with two stupid achievements like kill 5 guys with 5 different weapons or attachments, which isn't as much hard as it is annoying. But those will be finished soon and I will have my 5th S rank.
Until next time, that is so Borderlands. -GamerGeek360

I am back on my regularly scheduled day for an Achievement Update! Although after this week it will be taken back by Jay Leno so just a heads up. Don't worry about me, I have a ton of fans that will follow me to FOX so I should be all good and Jeff Zucker will burn in hell. Anyways, pop culture anger rant over. Achievements begin.

Well I really need to get achievements but since I'm in school if I do have time to play games the only game I ever feel like playing is Modern Warfare 2 with my friends. Speaking of MW2 I ended up getting a 24 kill-streak today. 24! One away from my nuke which I do have in my killstreak set. It goes 7 kills for harrier, 11 for chopper gunner, and then 25 for nuke. Anyways, I was sniping on Wasteland and I was just playing when all of a sudden I got a harrier, I thought, "Cool I'll just call this in and probably get my chopper gunner." Sure enough I got my chopper and called it in. It got shot down after what I felt was a decent amount of a kills when my friend said I was on a 21 kill streak. That tied my best so far so I was excited. I started getting kills again when I realized I was at 24. My heart was going crazy because I thought I was gonna finally get my nuke but right as I lined up the last shot to get my 25th kill, the game ended. I finished the match 27-3 so that was a great game but still, SO CLOSE!
Anyways, hope this update was good for you guys and I promise to start reading your blogs again soon I've just been very busy.
Until next time, my name is GamerGeek360 and I'm on Team Conan. -GamerGeek360

Well I hope everyone had some good holidays, I know I did. But since school starts back up for me on Monday I thought I probably should finally update my blog. I have been so distracted by WoW and MW2 over my break that I haven't got around to doing anything else. So without further ado, here....it....is!

So you can see what I have been doing all break. I have played MW2 non-stop but it's mostly multiplayer. I still need to get half of the intel and most of the spec ops done. In multiplayer, I just hit first prestige two days ago and I'm already level 26 in it with mastery on the M4 for the second time. I love how now prestige gives you something now other than a cool icon. Sure, I would've prestiged anyways because I'm not a pussy who doesn't want to lose my guns. But now it gives you more titles, classes, and challenges which add to me constantly playing the game. Anyways, hope everyone has been doing well and it's good to be blogging again.
Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I was busy with finishing my first semester of college and then I got sucked back into WoW and MW2 once I had time to play games again. This post is just to wish a Merry Christmas to everyone or Happy Holiday if you celebrate others. I probably won't have another Achievement Update until 2010 so to all of my friends, I promise, it's coming!

So there you have it, I beat Modern Warfare 2 on Veteran. Finally, I know. But I had things to do (college) and they just kept getting in the way. Now I will make sure I get all of the achievements in the game. Surprisingly the one I was worried about the most was Drive By and got that on the last mission so that was helpful. Now I'm worried about the one where I have to kill 5 guys using 5 different weapons and attachments in a row. That seems tough. Oh well, I'll update you guys along the way. Especially if you follow my Twitter.
Until next time, 22K WOOT!!!! -GamerGeek360

I would be farther in MW2 but the online is so fun and addicting. Oh well, I plan on S-ranking this just like I did CoD4. As for the Veteran achievements, so far they are much easier than CoD4 was. Maybe it's because infinite enemies are either gone or not that bad anymore. I'm not seeing infinite spawning, at least not everywhere. Our internet is slow today so I can't play online but I have work to do anyways. Guess I'll have to play tomorrow.
Until next time, remember, no Russian. -GamerGeek360

LATEST AVATAR AWARDS
This is going to be a new section that I will add to every Achievement Update. I got my first Avatar Award the other day in Halo: Waypoint. It's not a game but they have Avatar Awards so it counts on that front. Obviously, I won't get an Avatar Award every week but it's still a cool section. Also, if you're wondering why I have access to Waypoint, it's because I'm in the Beta program for the new update. Everyone else has to wait a little while.

So that is that. Right now, I'm just playing some Borderlands. That should hold me off until next Tuesday when MW2 comes out. Too bad I have classes from 9-9 on Tuesday so I won't get to play until 10PM Tuesday night. Oh well, I still can't wait!
This is actually #103 Round 2 because I typed this up on Wednesday, hit the "Post Blog" button and then the site crashed and I lost it all. I was pissed and decided I would type it up when I find time later so here we are. Here's the achievements!

So that's #103. Not a lot because I had midterms and I didn't have a lot of time to play games this week. Also, I am not buying anything anytime soon. I'm saving my money right now for until I get a job. The only new game I plan on buying is Modern Warfare 2 and that's because I already have the $80 version pre-ordered. But anyways, that is all. I hope you enjoy the new layout (that is, if Giant Bomb likes the HTML I put in) also LINKS!
Until next time, I'm in the Xbox Live Update Preview Program (again)!!!! -GamerGeek360 10 Comments
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)! -GamerGeek360
Well after I had Xbox problems and school bogging me down I make my (somewhat) triumphant return to the Giant Bomb blogging scene. Also after I post my achievements please read what I have to say and give me an honest opinion on what you think of it.

So there's the return of Achievement Update. Now, as I mentioned before I have something to ask of you guys. My question is, should I start doing video blogs? I have my new Alienware notebook (by the way, this was the first blog done on it) and the webcam is such good quality I could do video blogs on it that are super clear. So should I? Do you guys want to see my ugly face talk about games? Please post your comments below and I will decide in the coming days with an answer on Monday whether or not I'm going to do it.
Thanks.
Until next time, yes I'm returning to my normal schedule on Monday. -GamerGeek360
