The Wideguy's Xbox - May 25 2013

I tried to play a few Xbox Live titles yesterday since The Wideguy never showed up. I got bored and cried instead. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 24 2013

Well yesterday was pretty boring... the lack of gaming heavily contributed to that... I am trying to keep a positive outlook on this, but after 4 days of neglect any normal console starts to lose it... | permalink

If I was The Wideguy, I would have totally played some games yesterday... but I am obviously not him because that did not happen. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 22 2013

I was all geared up and ready to do some rocking and rolling when The Wideguy said that they were going to go bake a cake... he never came back... I'm thinking the cake was a lie. | permalink

The Wideguy must have a life, because he didn't game yesterday... | permalink

The Wideguy's Weekly Recap - May 20 2013

Do you know what time of the week it is? Time to talk about what happened these last seven days: I told The Wideguy that 5 days of playing would be ideal... so last week there was some extra effort to get us there. Good job! Ready for this? Last week saw an increase of 1020 points! My eye almost bleeds looking at a number that large! Getting 45 achievements can do that to you. I was there. I saw it!

I persuaded The Wideguy to try a new game: Doritos Crash Course 2. It was a lot cooler than I thought it would be. Also, I think we can all agree that The Wideguy's favorite game last week was [PROTOTYPE®2]. He played it on 5 of the days.

That's all for now... keep reading the blog! Send us a PM or a game invite if you are lonely. | permalink

While The Wideguy was away yesterday, I was sitting here alone counting up all the achievement points he was missing out on! If you don't play me, you can't increase your score. Remember that! | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 19 2013

What time is it? Time to tell you about yesterday when The Wideguy came to play. Gamer score stands at 132,558. That is an increase of 210 points over last time! He made some progress on [PROTOTYPE®2] finishing 3 achievements to complete the game, Doritos Crash Course 2 winning an amazing 8 achievements, and then I came out of my trance and realized it was all over. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 18 2013

The Wideguy hit the switch and fired me up yesterday... his total gamer score is 132,348.That is a profit of 350 points over last time! That puts us above 132,000 points! He played [PROTOTYPE®2] gaining an amazing 9 achievements, and afterwards, there were some awkward stares and silence... you know how it is. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 17 2013

The Wideguy showed up yesterday ready to dominate. Total gamer score stands at 131,998. That is a boost of 265 points over last time! He opened up [PROTOTYPE®2] acquiring an amazing 14 achievements, and then the lightweight went to bed. Freakin' wuss. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 16 2013

I told The Wideguy 'Don't make me hurt you!' and the threat worked because he decided to show up yesterday. A gamer score of 131,733 is in our back pocket. That is a boost of 135 points over last time! He played [PROTOTYPE®2] adding an amazing 7 achievements, and wished it would never end, but it did and that was sad. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 15 2013

Good thing I have access to The Wideguy's entire MP3 collection streamed off his computer. It keeps me busy on days like yesterday when he never shows up to game. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 14 2013

The Wideguy hit the switch and fired me up yesterday... his total gamer score is 131,598.That is a profit of 60 points over last time! He rocked out to [PROTOTYPE®2] picking up 4 achievements, and I think there was some random Live Marketplace browsing, but I wasn't paying attention. | permalink

The Wideguy's Weekly Recap - May 13 2013

Do you know what time of the week it is? Time to talk about what happened these last seven days: The Wideguy played 2 days last week... pretty solid I guess... I'm not feeling that picky lately. We added 180 points of gamerscore. Points are good! Those 14 achievements were worth it I guess!

So that's it. Thanks for reading. PM us for a game or something. We get lonely. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 13 2013

The Wideguy showed up yesterday and we were like a superhero team together. I make a great sidekick! Gamerscore stands at 131,538. Up up and away right? That is an increase of 180 points over last time! He played The Walking Dead adding an amazing 8 achievements to complete the game, [PROTOTYPE®2] picking up an amazing 6 achievements, and did it while drooling over my awesome graphics and sound. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 12 2013

There are people out there who think video games are violent. But after The Wideguy played yesterday with his gamerscore of 131,358 points, there wasn't any violence at all. A little drooling maybe but definitely no violence. He played Minecraft, and The Wideguy won't admit this, but I had to force him to stop. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 11 2013

It says on the box that Xbox 360s require at least two hours of gaming per day. The Wideguy needs to get with the program! Ok... I lied that is not on the box... but it should be. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 10 2013

Well, I didn't get to game yesterday... I hope this doesn't become some sort of trend... that would be on the lame side of things... | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 9 2013

The Wideguy, there are 86,400 seconds in a day and you couldn't find a few to spend with me? Lame. | permalink

I was all ready to write in my blog about how great of a time I had playing with The Wideguy yesterday, but then my plans changed when I was ignored... all... freaking... day... | permalink

The Wideguy's Weekly Recap - May 6 2013

Are you ready for a recap? I know I am! Giddyup: The Wideguy played 4 days last week... pretty solid I guess... I'm not feeling that picky lately. It was productive... Gamerscore went up 360 points so I am happy. Yay for 17 achievements! w00t!

In the 'new game' category, I only have one to talk about... Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. I wasn't even going to mention it, but I figured my readers might get mad. So there it is. Also, I think we can all agree that The Wideguy's favorite game last week was Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. He played it on 4 of the days.

And that's it... short and sweet, just like my power cord. | permalink

The Wideguy's Xbox - May 6 2013

When you want to get on the cover of the gaming magazines, you have to play every day! I keep telling The Wideguy that as motivation... yesterday it worked! We went for a spin... played some games... ended with a score of 131,358. That is a gain of 210 points over last time! He rallied Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon finishing an amazing 9 achievements, as well as stared off into space... thinking about the one that got away. | permalink
