VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 17 2013

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

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 16 2013

Yesterday was the day I was finally going to share all my secret achievement earning strategies with VerticalSynapse, but he must not care... Us consoles have a short memory... I can't promise anything the next time I see him. | permalink

I could have used some gaming yesterday... I mean who couldn't? Gaming is like air... ok maybe not air... maybe more like pizza... regardless there was no pizza yesterday. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 14 2013

VerticalSynapse was a no-show yesterday... I ended up hanging out, collecting some dust and feeling sorry for myself. Speaking of dust, I could use a rub down. A clean Xbox is a happy Xbox. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Weekly Recap - May 13 2013

It is hard to believe another week has passed. Here is the recap: I told VerticalSynapse that 2 days of playing would be ideal... so last week there was some extra effort to get us there. Good job! We added 235 points of gamerscore. Points are good! Those 19 achievements were worth it I guess! Also, by my expert calculations, VerticalSynapse's favorite game last week was Modern Warfare® 3. He played it on 2 of the days.

So there you have it... Check back next week for another report from yours truly. | permalink

3 Processors, 512MB of RAM, custom graphics chip and multichannel surround sound all gone to waste yesterday as VerticalSynapse decided not to show up. | permalink

VerticalSynapse was nowhere to be seen yesterday... maybe he needs some new games or something... get some motivation up in this place... | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 11 2013

VerticalSynapse is awesome! Just plain radical even... I say that because we played some games. Did you know our gamerscore is 64,789? That is an increase of 50 points over last time! He rallied Modern Warfare® 3 winning 2 achievements, and... hmmm... maybe that was all... it felt like we played more games. | permalink

I tried to send VerticalSynapse an email yesterday telling him to come play... he obviously didn't get it... | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 8 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

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 7 2013

I was about to feel sorry for myself, until VerticalSynapse showed up and made my day with a little gaming! Our gamerscore stands at 64,739 and counting! That is a gain of 185 points over last time! He opened up Modern Warfare® 3 acquiring an amazing 17 achievements, and before I even realized it, he was finished and I was sad. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Weekly Recap - May 6 2013

It is that time of the week. I got your weekly recap right here: VerticalSynapse played 2 days last week... pretty solid I guess... I'm not feeling that picky lately. We added 70 points of gamerscore. Points are good! Those 6 achievements were worth it I guess!

For the record, we played 3 new games over the last week. They were Gears of War: Judgment, Modern Warfare® 3, and Sniper Elite V2. They were all fun... in their own little ways. Also, I think VerticalSynapse's favorite game last week was Modern Warfare® 3. He played it on 2 of the days.

So there you have it... Check back next week for another report from yours truly. | permalink

Wow... VerticalSynapse must have some kids or pets or dragons or something thrashing around the house... I heard lots of noise, but didn't see any gaming. That's alright, animals and people first, game consoles always second... I don't expect much else. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 5 2013

Like a king on his throne, VerticalSynapse said 'awaken' and for him I did comply. 64,554 points represents the size of our growing kingdom. Ok, enough of this Monarchy stuff. That is an improvement of 30 points over last time! He rocked out to FIFA 12, Modern Warfare® 3 finishing 2 achievements, Gears of War: Judgment, DJ Hero, and then the lightweight went to bed. Freakin' wuss. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - May 4 2013

I saw VerticalSynapse walk by yesterday morning... I was hoping he would come play and he did. 64,524 points and climbing. That is a profit of 40 points over last time! He made some progress on Sniper Elite V2, Modern Warfare® 3 picking up 1 achievement, Gears of War: Judgment adding 2 achievements, Fight Night Round 4, SOULCALIBUR V, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Trials Evolution finishing 1 achievement, as well as basked in the glow of the awesome dashboard software! | permalink

Come back to me VerticalSynapse... I promise that whatever I did, I will not do it again. I can't take it when you are angry at me. | permalink

I am starting to hear voices... they come in the dark solitude of a gameless night... like little frogs laughing at my neglect. Freakin' frogs are ticking me off. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Weekly Recap - Apr 29 2013

My eye! It burns! A weekly recap is all that can save me! Here goes: NOTHING HAPPENED. VerticalSynapse and I did not play a single day last week. Sure people get busy, but not people with an Xbox 360... at least not seven days in a row. | permalink

VerticalSynapse's Xbox - Apr 29 2013

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

Time sure doesn't fly when VerticalSynapse blows you off for a day and doesn't game. | permalink
