Tyrok's Xbox - Jun 19 2013
Oh man... I think my disk drive is broken... I can't feel my controller... Tyrok? Are you there? Anybody? Somebody? Nobody? I need gaming! Please!
Oh man... I think my disk drive is broken... I can't feel my controller... Tyrok? Are you there? Anybody? Somebody? Nobody? I need gaming! Please!
I swear that after 14 days of inactivity I can feel parts of me rusting... I'M TOO YOUNG TO DIE!! PLEASE! SAVE YOUR CONSOLE!
Ok, here it is... your weekly recap of gaming: You thought my blog entries last week were all doom and gloom... sorry to say this weekly recap of gaming isn't much happier. A part of me thought Tyrok might get some late night gaming in last weekend... but not even that happened. Oh well, maybe tomorrow... or the day after that... or the day after that...
It really feels like forever since I have felt the sweet surge of power running through my belly. Is there a nationwide power outage that Tyrok isn't telling me about? Email me if there is a blackout... oh... wait...
Fear me Tyrok... for I am coming to force you into gaming. You think I am kidding? You just wait...
Due to severe lack of gaming... I am thinking of shutting myself off... permanently... let's see how Tyrok digs on that!
What is with guys and the whole 'going out with friends' thing? Hey Tyrok, you try partying with this massive power supply permanently strapped to your rear.
What does a 360 have to do around here to get some gaming? Anyone?
I am trying to be a patient Xbox, but it isn't working out... 8 is longer than I should have to wait for some gaming! Give it to me! I want it!
gaming no Today was there. scrambled feel I up all. happening What's me to?!?!
My eye! It burns! A weekly recap is all that can save me! Here goes: It isn't going to be much of a surprise if you have been reading the blog. There has been no gaming... none... zilch... nothing... If you want to see a sad Xbox... just stare into my eye and witness the sorrow.

Tyrok also wrapped up a gamerscore challenge today. Remember? Despite 5 days and nights of gaming goodness though, we couldn't take the lead and ended up finishing at number 4. So yeah... maybe we can get them next time... maybe we need to try a challenge with easier people... the 9 gamers in this last challenge were too good.
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 5 days of neglect any normal console starts to lose it...
Did I mention the gamerscore challenge that Tyrok is competing in? Don't take my word for it! See for yourself! 9 other people are throwing down in this challenge. If I do the math correctly, it means that 9 players X 5 days means a whole lot of trash talk! Out of all those people, Tyrok is currently parked at number 4. With only one day left though, we need to make that last big push!
I have a feeling Tyrok went on vacation without telling me... At least he could have taken me with him... last time I checked Xboxes weren't illegal in your carry-on.
Oh hey, time for the gamerscore challenge update too... Tyrok still has that going on and stuff. Let me link you to the daily updates and trash talking. 9 other competitors are racking up achievements and powering up their gamerscores, hoping to secure a victory! Currently, Tyrok is setting the pace, though, jumping into the lead and hoping to hold on through the end of the challenge. With 2 days to go, anything can still happen though...
3 Processors, 512MB of RAM, custom graphics chip and multichannel surround sound all gone to waste yesterday as Tyrok decided not to show up.
Oh, guess what? Our gamerscore challenge is going strong... Don't take my word for it! See for yourself! There are 9 other people involved. I didn't know Tyrok even knew that many people. The only thing that matters is Tyrok is beating them all! Number one so far! Take a few moments and savor the lead but then we need to get back to gaming! Plenty of time to rest 3 days from now after we've won this thing!
I was all geared up and ready to do some rocking and rolling when Tyrok said that they were going to go bake a cake... he never came back... I'm thinking the cake was a lie.
Oh, guess what? Our gamerscore challenge is going strong... Let me link you to the daily updates and trash talking. If I was you, I'd subscribe to the trash talk RSS feed for this one - 9 other competitors are battling with their skills and egos. Currently, Tyrok is setting the pace, though, jumping into the lead and hoping to hold on through the end of the challenge. It's good to be in the lead, but there's still 4 days left in the challenge and 9 challengers looking to eclipse our achievements with some of their own.
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...
A big shift in score is coming soon as well. Tyrok is competing in a gamerscore challenge titled 'Auto Challenge - #94268' and looking to win big. Expect a lot of games, a lot of points, and no sleep!

Are you ready for a recap? I know I am! Giddyup: I told Tyrok that 2 days of playing would be ideal... so last week there was some extra effort to get us there. Good job! We added 30 points of gamerscore. Points are good! Those 2 achievements were worth it I guess!
Out of all the possible new games we could have tried this last week, Tyrok and I only tried one of them: Crimson Alliance. Pretty fun I guess... Also, I think Tyrok's favorite game last week was Halo 4. He played it on 2 of the days.
And that's all I got. I'm not a writer... just an Xbox.
Tyrok held the Xbox button on his controller down for a few seconds and our adventure began! A gamer score of 54,428 is lighting the way. That is an improvement of 15 points over last time! He opened up Halo 4 adding 1 achievement, Crimson Alliance, and then I came out of my trance and realized it was all over.
Oh hey, remember the challenge that Tyrok was in? It has come to an end. Unfortunately, we came up short, ending up in the number 4 spot. That's ok though... at least I got into some group-action against 9 other gamers... giggidy...
Yesterday I sat... alone... and wanting... 4 days of wanting infact...
Oh, guess what? Our gamerscore challenge is going strong... Bookmark this link now and check out all the action! There are 9 other people rocking out on this thing which keeps it fun. Tyrok has the number 6 spot... We only have one day to pull out a win... polish off those games and get to work.
Yesterday, Tyrok decided to spend his time elsewhere... machines don't feel lonely... really we don't...
Oh, guess what? Our gamerscore challenge is going strong... Don't take my word for it! See for yourself! 9 other people are also involved... which is madness. Currently Tyrok is holding the number 3 spot in the group... decent. And while we have 2 days left, let's not procrastinate. Pick up that controller and get to unlockin'!
When someone makes a mistake there is typically some kind of gift involved... Maybe I can get a new faceplate out of the missed day of gaming yesterday... It is totally like Tyrok to do something like that.
And..... guess what? I will reveal the latest gamerscore challenge status to you as a matter of public record. Follow every up and down over here. 9 other people are throwing down in this challenge. If I do the math correctly, it means that 9 players X 5 days means a whole lot of trash talk! Currently Tyrok is hanging on to the number 3 spot. However there are still 3 days left to score achievement glory. Let's get to the top of that challenge board! Go!
I dream of electric sheep... ok just kidding that was Blade Runner. That has nothing to do with gaming.
Oh and it is time for a gamerscore challenge update... listen up... If you want to follow along at home, catch the action here. There are 9 other people rocking out on this thing which keeps it fun. Currently Tyrok is hanging on to the number 3 spot. But, there are still 4 long days left! We need to keep heading for the top!
