Xbox360Achievements.org - Member of the Month

Welcome to June, home of the longest day of the year and also the longest delay on MOM so far! Webby and myself apologise for this- we've both been super busy and this months pick was hard! This months MOM is a member that not many of you will recognise, but you all recognise his work. He has become a skilled Achievement Hunter- finding the lists we don't have and submitting them. On behalf of the site, I say thanks. And now, allow me to introduce you to..... Himself0890

Lets start by finding out a bit more about the man behind the GamerTag.

My name is Mike. I live in Austintown, OH. My gamertag is made up of the last part of my alias "Mike Himself" (made over MySpace, ha). I just turned 18 at the end of May. I'm single, currently. I love movies, video games, computers, going dancing and hanging out with my friends. I am a Cleveland Browns, Indians & Cavs fan. Currently, I am a Graphic Design & Marketing Intern for PageFlakes Inc. and love web programming. I am graduating June 15, and next semester I will be attending Youngstown State University (with KRAZIE!! :P) Yup, that's it....

What is your gaming setup like?

Right now, 29" Magnavox Standard TV and my Xbox 360. By end of summer I am hoping to get a 42" Vizio Widescreen TV, Surround Sound.

What is your favorite game on the 360?

Guitar Hero III or Rock Band, they are just fun to play. Recently, for our senior cookout before school started; my friend, CJ, and I set up my 360 with his TV and power generator and all the seniors had some battles on Rock Band.

And the game that makes you scream?

Scream as in frustrated, Call of Duty 4; but thinking back trying to play Gears after playing all the new FPS, it is hard to try and play on Insane. Scream has in terrified, I'd say Bioshock gave me a couple chills, haha.

What achievement are you most proud of?

Beating Rock Band on Hard; I failed Flirtin' with Disaster probably 7 times before I beat it, definitely frustrating; btw, I thought Green Grass and High Tides was easier.

Which achievement is the next on the hit list for you?
Probably 1000 on The Simpsons, this is my first GameFly rental and certainly not my last. After that, I will maybe go back and try to 1000 GTA.

What was the last thing you downloaded from the Arcade?
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved, I really didn't think it was that hard of a game; until I played it. Not sure if it was worth the money, achievement-wise. But nevertheless, the game is fun!

Do you get games mainly for achievements, or for gameplay?
I got my 360 in August of 2007 and didn't really know about achievements. I didn't really start paying attention to them till about March 2008. I look for games with easy achievements, but that won't stop me from playing challenging games like Ninja Gaiden 2!

Is the 360 your only console currently? Do you have plans for any more?
NI have a Gamecube that doesn't get much play anymore. Also, I have a Sega, PS1, N64, and NES.

Whats the next game that you will be getting?

I am looking forward to Madden 09 and Smackdown vs Raw 2009; although I am not a fan of WWE anymore, the new career system looks fun! Oh, and the new Tales of Vesperia and Banjo Kazooie look great...(I was a fan of both Nintendo versions).

And final comments….

Weezy for President

Downloadable content - achievements or no achievements - will you buy it with or without them?
	If the content is good, or for a game I love, I'll buy it regardless of whether chievos are included
	I'll still buy and play the downloadable content, but achievements would be nice.
	Who the hell cares!?
	No achievements, no sale ... and that goes for any game ... whether you're GTA or Halo!
	Just stop with the DLC achievements full stop ... you're ruining my completion percentage dammit!
