CroutonCrusader's Weekly Recap - Aug 18 2008
Someone ask for a weekly recap? Even if you didn't, here it is: Oh man are my cores just rocking... CroutonCrusader played seven days last week! SEVEN! That is a NUMBER SEVEN followed by NO ZEROS! HOT! We really made it happen on the gamerscore front. An increase of 840 points makes for a nice bounty. Those 31 achievements were worth it I guess!
I persuaded CroutonCrusader to try 7 games last week: BC:Rearmed, BLADESTORM, C&C3: Kane's Wrath, Fable® II Pub Games, Madden NFL 09, NCAA® Football 09, and NFL Head Coach 09. It was a mix of good and bad. Also, by my expert calculations, CroutonCrusader's favorite game last week was BC:Rearmed. He played it on 4 of the days.
And that's all I got. I'm not a writer... just an Xbox.

CroutonCrusader's Weekly Recap - Aug 11 2008
Someone ask for a weekly recap? Even if you didn't, here it is: I told CroutonCrusader that 6 days of playing would be ideal... so last week there was some extra effort to get us there. Good job! We added 366 points of gamerscore which ain't too shabby. Getting 27 achievements can do that to you. I was there. I saw it!
If I had a DOLLAR for every new game I played during the week, I would have 5 bucks! w00t! I can now add 1942: Joint Strike, Braid, Coffeetime Crosswords™, Double D Dodgeball, and Live Draft Tracker to my collection... unless they were rentals or demos or betas. I couldn't tell. Also, according to the records, CroutonCrusader's favorite game last week was Geometry Wars Evolved². He played it on 5 of the days.
So that's it for now. It was a good week. On to the next one.
