Annoying Achievements

Ok, so ever since my brother somehow got our shared gamer profile banned from Xbox Live (kudos to the company, by the way, for TOTALLY clearing up the details of that bullshit ¬¬) I have been trying to regain my Halo 3 and ODST Achievements. Sad? Yes. But that ain't the point of this rant.

I am now tasked with the Everests of under valued achievements to re-earn:

• Vidmaster: Annual - 0G: "Complete the final level of Halo 3 on Legendary with the Iron skull turned on, on 4-Player Xbox Live with everybody in Ghosts". You don't have to be a Halo geek to understand that this is incredibly frustrating and hard to do. Especially since everyone and their mums already have it!

• Overkill - 5G: "Get 4 kills within 4 seconds of each other in any ranked free for all playlist". Now, seeing as Lone Wolves is the only consistant free for all playlist, and has only 6 players per game, with a respawn time of roughly three seconds, mathematically the odds of getting this one are slim, at best.

• Two for One - 5G: "Get two kills with one Spartan Laser shot in any ranked free for all match". Essentially see above, but this time calculate the odds of two players standing within the range of a linear beam with enough time to charge the laser and kill them both. Then add in the fact that there are very few maps with the spartan laser on that appear in free for all games.

So, to summarise; yes, I'm a total geek who gets pissed off at the most geeky things too easily - and yet I'm more annoyed because I feel I have a right to keep these achievements, having earned them once before. Paaah, I'm going to bed. Anyone wanna do Annual, Endure or Deja Vu - message me!

Moonlight over Cretlin: Update #2

Hey again, guys.
Bit of a snag regarding Moonlight over Cretlin - the game is lagging like hell, so shooting of this scene is going incredibly slow. HOWEVER this will not prevent the film from being finished indefinately. Just need to be patient and eventually the shots will be aquired. This is, in terms of special effects, the hardest scene to shoot, so bear with me. Remember that the machinima work I do is produced entirely on my own, so naturally things take a little bit of time!

That's all for today, stay tuned folks!

Moonlight over Cretlin: Update #1

Hey guys
Basically, not a lot has happened recently regarding my machinima movie, Moonlight over Cretlin, so now I've decided to take the time to explain why this is so!

Basically, University has kept me insanely busy recently, what with two mega assignments, a phase test and now an upcoming exam. This latter test of my knowledge COULD mean that the release date for the movie could move into early Autumn, but let me assure you it will be out this year!

For those of you who can't wait to watch it, and are thinking of giving up on it ever coming out; HOLD IT! I am about to disclose some killer information! A big character from the Explorer Chronicles (prelude to MoC) is making a return in the final acts of the film, so keep watching this space!

Until next time!
