Welcome to the month of February. The days are getting longer, the temperature is rising and you can almost feel summer coming. Also, as a quick reminder for all you forgetful people, Valentines Day is this month as well. Anyway, this member has learnt that persistence will get you something.....eventually. Most people will have noticed that the clans have made a comeback, and this has mainly been due to the nagging and hard work that this guy has done. No point in delaying this any longer, so let me introduce.........
Lets start by finding out a bit more about the man behind the GamerTag.
My Name's Alex, I'm a 15 year old sophomore at North Andover High school in Northern Massachusetts. I am a full time student and play Tennis, soccer and hang out with friends, as well as play 360 in my spare time. I was originally a PC gamer and spent over 1000 hours in the best game of all time COD2, as well as many other games in the 5 year run. I am currently trying to learn drum's but it is much harder than most people think, and i am already counting down the days till summer vacation starts.
What is your gaming setup like?
While it just improved greatly during this holiday season. I got a 37" Vizio HDTV for Christmas, but before that i was playing on a TV made in the early 1980's. I have an entire room based to gaming with 2 AK Rocker gaming chairs and a couch and many gaming posters and memorabilia
What is your favorite game on the 360?
Multiplayer i would have to go with Halo 3, it is just such an addicting game and i could play it for hours. But my favorite game of all time would have to be Call of Duty 4, the single player in that game just blew me away. I went thought the entire game on Veteran in about a week, and then went back and played though on Normal.
And the game that makes you scream?
Perfect Dark Zero, i bought it at my local gamestop for about $10, because it was cheap and for some achievements. I played it once and now i regret it, i may have to put it back in and get a couple of achievements but that game is truly god awful
What achievement are you most proud of?
I have 2 of them, beat the Mile High Club on Veteran in COD4 and beat the game on Veteran in COD2 those both took me a very long time.
Which achievement is the next on the hit list for you?
The full 1000 points in Madden 08, just borrowed it and that will be the next one i go for.
What was the last thing you downloaded from the Arcade?
Undertow because it was free
Do you get games mainly for achievements, or for gameplay?
If it is a cheap used game at Gamestop then i will buy it for achievements, but I normally buy for gameplay and use gamefly for achievements.
Is the 360 your only console currently? Do you have plans for any more?
My one and only console, my computer is Rigged up enough that it could be considered a console, but the 360 is my first console and my only until the next Xbox
Whats the next game that you will be getting?
I just picked up Burnout Paradise and Timeshift, the next one will probably be either Lost Odyssey or if i choose not to get that, Army of Two.
