After about two months of having my 360, I have to say I'm liking the system a whole lot. I've grown to like Halo 3 on a console as opposed to the PC (which I might have played two or three years down the line, given how fast Microsoft ports its flagship games) and I've played some exclusives I wanted to try for a while now. I've also discovered the added replay value that achievements bring.

Being a completist at heart, I've always wanted to play a game to death until I've done everything I can in it before moving on to something else. That said, the only two games I own (Halo 3 and Dead Rising) are now complete: 1000/1000 gamerpoints for each. Admittedly not something that's easy to do; the multiplayer achivements in Halo 3 were no picnic (Steppin' Razor was the last holdout and took me a good week to get) and Dead Rising necessitated multiple replays to get everything (thank goodness for the Real Mega Buster). But I played these games far more than I would have were it not for points.

Time to move on to something else and rack 'em up.
