I thought squidpunch just wanted to listen to music or watch a DVD. Turns out he was there to game. With a gamer score of 52,395, I should have known that was the case. That is a gain of 10 points over last time! He rocked out to Condemned 2: Bloodshot acquiring 1 achievement, and then he started getting all these friend requests because of high awesomeness levels.

I always like to end with a little bit about squidpunch and the ongoing gamerscore challenge status. Follow every up and down over here. 4 other people are also involved… which is madness. squidpunch has the number 3 spot… With 4 days to go, anything can still happen though… get on it!

Crazyness!

Well this blog is hosted on the same site as 360friendspot.com. If you didn’t the site performing a bit slower then usual it is because we got some serious media coverage about our site and tools for a change, which drove a TON of traffic our way.

The unscripted interview was completed and available Here, in addition to that we were Dug which was picked up by xbox360fanboy.

Traffic has seemed to slow down a bit, and all of our sites are back to functioning again. It was exciting to say the least - and we have picked up quite a few more Live Eye Members, and hopefully some more active members for the forums.

PS. If you listen to the interview, dont be to harsh - it was probably the most nervous I have ever been in my life.

Sayswap Update

Just a quick update, I did in fact just recieve my game (Import Tuner Challenge) from Sayswap.com today. It looks like the member that sent me the game had to pay some extra shipping (they include a printed label from endicia.com, but there was a us postal sticker for more postage too). I have to say its pretty amazing to get a game for only about $5 thanks to the free points. Now next time if I give the service another try in the future I will have to ship in a game (or spend $30 on points - which is just like going to the used store downtown). Just wanted to blog that it does in fact work - at least with the member that agreed to ship my game =)

Live eye on Unscripted

Just got done having a chat with Deaconblade 360 about the live eye, and 360friendspot in general. I have to say that if I sound like a fool, well I was very nervous! Had a blast talking with him, and I think I got the word out about the site at least relatively well. As soon as the episode is up and available for download I will obviously provide a link.

Wordpress Update

well being the n00b that I am, I just upgraded wordpress, but since I was using a default template for my theme I lost all of the mods I have put into the site. I am currently trying to fix that problem, the only thing that seems to be outstanding is the ability to show ‘Tags’ instead of categories.

Trial run of SaySwap.com

So a number of days ago a member over at 3fs asked if anyone had used this game trading website ‘SaySwap’. This was the first I have heard of it, as well as other members of our forums but strangely enough I orignally wanted to build a service like this, but a bit different.

I figured I would give the site a try, you don’t have to pay anything to create an account, so why not. The site rules are a bit complicated if you ask me but it works something like this:

  • You select games that you want, they have a point value and you must have this many points to request this game from another user - additionally you need a trade token which will run you about $5.
  • Trade tokens can only be purchased from the site, there is no other way to recieve them, except if you get a token from a referral - so if anyone wants to sign up let me invite you for some free tokens =)
  • the points that you need to trade a game can be obtained by either bying them $1 for 1 point, or by sending a game to another member that wants that game. They also give you 30 points for simply creating your account.
  • Games are valued at 30, 20, and 10 points, this is loosely based on the current MSRP of that game, so considering they give you 30 points to start you should be able to recieve a game trade from a willing member for only the ~$5.00 fee.
  • Apparently the site pays for the shipping for all members of the United States - which is a definate plus.

Crackdown Demo on Marketplace

It’s officiall the crackdown demo is on the marketplace. Unfortunately I only downloaded about 50% before I had to leave for work, so I can’t provide any input on the actual demo yet.

Look!! My name in lights!

Just got done listening to the latest episode of unscripted360 and was shocked to hear my gamertag mentioned quite a few times. I mean I all ready knew the interview was going to happen for episode #26, but I was shocked to hear Deacon promoting it. So my gamertag will be showcased on two unscripted360 shows. Hopefully I can do the Live Eye tool (and 3fs in general) justice for the upcoming interview. =O

Keep an ear out for Squid on Unscripted.

I was contacted by DeaconBlade 360 a little while back asking me to be on his show over at Unscripted 360. We have had a few discussions back and forth through various means and he is currently planning on having me on for episode #26 - which should be recorded and available next week. Why in the world would he want to chat with me? I was wondering the same thing, but he has been trying out our Live Eye application and wants to discuss it. He’s a great guy and I enjoy his show - so I am very honored to be a part of it.

Gaming Recap 01/18/07

Well I am writing another recap of my gaming - mostly because I feel like I should keep blogging about something and most of the time I just dont keep up with xbox news enough to actually post about that here. My reviews and guides have died down - I will be writing up something in that regards soon I hope.

Last night was a marathon gaming night. I started the night with some Heavy Weapon, first some multiplayer with Heavy Weapon session i gained a couple achievements:

Then I switched gears and played some Gears of War . First I played some of Act 3 on co-op with Antediluvia. After he left for bed I played a couple rounds of versus, and then it was time to switch games again.

Then was about 30 minutes of Enchanted Arms which ended with me forgetting to save, and finding a battle I couldn’t win, so I am in the same place I was before that. Time to change games.

I haven’t given much time to Progect Gotham Racing 3, I still have it from gamefly but I just seem to put it below many of the other games I am playing right now. I picked up a couple of the achievements, all of which were the ones that dont really take any actual gaming effort.

yeah they could have actually spent some time and came up with different pictures, heh.

I ended the night with about 10 minutes of roboblitz, and I was beat so i went to sleep. It was a 4 hour session of straight gaming, more then I usually play thats for sure.
