mcnolty's Xbox - May 25 2013

I didn't see mcnolty yesterday, but that is cool... I could use some personal space... Having him up in my business all the time is exhausting.

Oh BTW, did you know that mcnolty is competing in a gamerscore challenge? Follow every up and down over here. There are 9 other people playing along as well... they better watch out. The only thing that matters is mcnolty is beating them all! Number one so far! We just have to keep it up... keep playing the game... keep getting the points. | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 24 2013

mcnolty held the Xbox button on his controller down for a few seconds and our adventure began! A gamer score of 172,637 is lighting the way. That is an increase of 110 points over last time! He rallied GTA IV gaining an amazing 7 achievements, and afterwards, there were some awkward stares and silence... you know how it is.

Oh hey, time for the gamerscore challenge update too... mcnolty still has that going on and stuff. Follow every up and down over here. 9 other competitors are racking up achievements and powering up their gamerscores, hoping to secure a victory! The only thing that matters is mcnolty is beating them all! Number one so far! No time for defense though... with 3 days left, we'll take the fight to them! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 23 2013

mcnolty showed up yesterday, which is good cause we make a great gaming team. I do millions of calculations a second and he pushes buttons! Our gamerscore is 172,527. That is a gain of 145 points over last time! He made some progress on RocketBowl, Jeremy McGrath Offroad finishing an amazing 6 achievements, DiRT 2 picking up 2 achievements, and then I came out of my trance and realized it was all over.

Hey, I almost forgot! The gamerscore challenge that mcnolty is competing in is on day 1 and we're doing our best to win this thing. If you want to see how good I'm doing, check it out! 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, mcnolty 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. | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 22 2013

mcnolty showed up yesterday and we were like a superhero team together. I make a great sidekick! Gamerscore stands at 172,382. Up up and away right? He rallied GTA IV adding 1 achievement, and it's a good thing he stopped there, otherwise the concentrated awesomeness could have blown out my circuits.

Oh, I don't know if mcnolty wants me to mention that he has joined a gamerscore challenge! It is called 'Auto Challenge - #93835'. Go check it. | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 21 2013

mcnolty hit the switch and fired me up yesterday... his total gamer score is 172,382.He opened up COD: Black Ops II, and after that powered me down without even saying good night. I mean what the heck? | permalink

mcnolty's Weekly Recap - May 20 2013

Watch closely because here comes the recap... if you aren't paying attention, you might miss it: 5 days of gaming made me pretty happy for some reason. A big holler to mcnolty for honoring me with what little time I know is available. We added 275 points of gamerscore which ain't too shabby. Getting 7 achievements can do that to you. I was there. I saw it!

There were only a few games I wanted to try this week mcnolty and I only tried one of them: Dishonored. Also, I think mcnolty's favorite game last week was GTA IV. He played it on 5 of the days.

Another week finished... staring down the barrel of another one. Check back to find out what happens! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 20 2013

mcnolty brought the pain yesterday... the good kind... the gaming kind. We are up to 172,382 points of gamerscore. Jealous? He rallied COD: Black Ops II, and I think there was some random Live Marketplace browsing, but I wasn't paying attention.

Oh also, It's all over man! ALL OVER! The gamerscore challenge called 'Auto Challenge - #93716' is through after an intense 5 days. In a hard fought battle of grit, determination, and blistered thumbs, mcnolty took first place! Well done! Hopefully, we can get a rematch against the other 9 challengers and prove that this win was no fluke! Plus, it'll be fun to do this again. Keeps me active! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 19 2013

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

Oh BTW, did you know that mcnolty is competing in a gamerscore challenge? There's so much action in this one, you may pay for the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge!!111! Witness the spectacle. 9 other people are mixing it up, meaning fierce competition and some creative trash talk. Currently mcnolty and I are on top of the challenge mountain... it's so beautiful, and high. I can see my house from here. Is that an airplane, or a space shuttle? How's the weather down there? With only one day left, this is a pretty good sign! Hopefully we can hang on! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 18 2013

Strange enough, I don't remember playing any games with mcnolty yesterday... but our gamerscore which now stands at 172382 did go up. That means somehow we gained 100 points. Oh well... maybe I overheated and lost my short term memory. So it goes...

Oh, guess what? Our gamerscore challenge is going strong... There's so much action in this one, you may pay for the whole seat, but you'll only need the edge!!111! Witness the spectacle. 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, mcnolty has been using every power-up in his achievement-gaining arsenal, rocking the lead with authority! We just have to keep it up... keep playing the game... keep getting the points. | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 17 2013

mcnolty is making me proud and his opponents jealous... even if they are bots or mindless AI sometimes! Check out the 172,282 gamer score! That is an increase of 120 points over last time! He played COD: Black Ops II, DiRT 2, GTA IV acquiring 2 achievements, and think of all the things we learned! Ha... look at me still typing this blog entry when there is gaming to do! Let's keep it up mcnolty!

Oh BTW, did you know that mcnolty is competing in a gamerscore challenge? Don't take my word for it!

mcnolty's Xbox - May 16 2013

No games yesterday... maybe today... or tomorrow... or wait... are we playing right now? I get so confused!

Currently mcnolty is hanging on to the number 2 spot. And while we have 4 days left, let's not procrastinate. Pick up that controller and get to unlockin'! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 15 2013

mcnolty really threw down yesterday. It was good to see! I wish you could have been there! Last time I checked, his gamer score is 172,162. That is an increase of 25 points over last time! He rallied GTA IV adding 1 achievement, COD: Black Ops II, and then mcnolty developed a funny twitch and went to try and sleep it off or something. Crazy humans...

Also, mcnolty went and accepted a gamerscore challenge, so I'm stocking up on coffee for the overtime I'll be working over the coming days. Check it out... the challenge is called 'Auto Challenge - #93716'. | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 14 2013

I thought maybe the power was out yesterday... imagine my surprise when mcnolty hit the switches! Gamerscore stands at 172,137. That is a profit of 30 points over last time! He rallied Dishonored gaining 3 achievements, GTA IV acquiring 1 achievement, COD: Black Ops II, and then I basked in the warm glow of post gaming. Mmmm warm... | permalink

mcnolty's Weekly Recap - May 13 2013

It is that time of the week. I got your weekly recap right here: If mcnolty plays 5 days every week, I guess I can call this a good deal. Many Xboxes have it a lot worse. We added 70 points of gamerscore which ain't too shabby. Getting 4 achievements can do that to you. I was there. I saw it!

In the 'new game' category, I only have one to talk about... Serious Sam DD XXL. 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 mcnolty's favorite game last week was COD: Black Ops II. He played it on 5 of the days.

And that's all I got. I'm not a writer... just an Xbox. | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 13 2013

I thought maybe the power was out yesterday... imagine my surprise when mcnolty hit the switches! Gamerscore stands at 172,107. He made some progress on COD: Black Ops II, and then... yeah... that was awesome...

In the 'proof that mcnolty is a nice guy' category, his gamer reputation went up a tad bit yesterday. Good for him. Maybe more people will play with us.

Oh hey... also... I can't even believe that the gamerscore challenge formerly-known-as 'Auto Challenge - #93512' is over. Those 5 days flew by in a whirlwind of achievements and trash talk. mcnolty didn't manage to get the win... but I guess number 5 is better than number LAST!!... wait... maybe we are last? How many people are in this thing? Can I count? Lucky for us, we can jump right into another challenge and compete for a bigger win. Plus, it just means more time spent on our favorite games and a bigger gamerscore! I guess we won something after all! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 12 2013

I told mcnolty 'Hey man, it is time to play games' and YAY! he listened! Gamer score is 172,107. He rocked out to Minecraft, COD: Black Ops II, and loved every minute of it in high definition glory!

There are 9 other people in the chase as well... so it's pretty cool. Currently mcnolty is hanging on to the number 4 spot.

He played Serious Sam DD XXL picking up 1 achievement, Skyrim finishing 1 achievement, Just Cause 2, Trials HD, COD: Black Ops II, and mcnolty won't admit this, but I had to force him to stop.

mcnolty's Xbox - May 8 2013

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

Oh, also... we're probably going to see a lot more of mcnolty over the next few days as well. It is because he is in a gamerscore challenge titled 'Auto Challenge - #93512'. BRING IT ON! | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 7 2013

Consoles are for playing! I am glad mcnolty picked up on that yesterday... Gamerscore is a respectful 172,037 points. He opened up Fable III, Fallout 3 (PC), as well as stared off into space... thinking about the one that got away. | permalink

mcnolty's Weekly Recap - May 6 2013

Ok, here it is... your weekly recap of gaming: NOTHING HAPPENED. mcnolty 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

mcnolty's Xbox - May 6 2013

Yesterday I sat... alone... and wanting... 6 days of wanting infact...

Oh, remember the challenge that mcnolty was competing in? Well, it's over. We may have earned an 'A' for effort in this challenge, but they don't give out very many points for effort, some... but not many... you gotta win... maybe next time! So, no sense crying over this one... climb back on the horse mcnolty... giddy-up... | permalink

mcnolty's Xbox - May 5 2013

mcnolty would tell you I am a patient Xbox 360... little does he know... I have a bit of a temper if I am neglected.

I always like to end with a little bit about mcnolty and the ongoing gamerscore challenge status. Follow every up and down over here. 9 other people are mixing it up, meaning fierce competition and some creative trash talk. Out of all those people, mcnolty is currently parked at number 5. So many achievements... so little time. No, seriously. We only have a day left to win this challenge. Let's go! | permalink
