There doesn't really seem to be a thread that would be for the smaller things that don't quite warrant a new thread but there isn't an existing thread quite either, so this thread is for all that!

I'll start, I figured I would play a little Xbox One before heading to bed, but I ended up getting like 290 gamerscore :D Last 30 days' total is already up to 2815 GS or so! :D Almost makes for 3 full games in a month :D

Hahaha I don't care a lot about GS , only when I'm playing Halo( I have all achievements in all Halo games) I think that with Xbox one I lost interest in achievements:\

I didn't care about achievements in fe. WoW but with the Xbox one I've become a GS hoarder :D I might play a bad game just for the GS, crimson dragon comes to mind

Did anyone hear or notice the Xbox sign in issues? It wasn't as severe as Sony'a DDOS attacks...

I didn't. But if it was just login servers, it wouldn't have effected me since I was logged in like all day anyways.

Lots of DDoSes going around.. this gaming community I'm a part of also got DDoSed yesterday.

Finally got around to finishing Max: The Curse of Brotherhood, so much other things to play, but now I'm up to over 3000 GS the last 30 days! :D ncxcstud is "fairly close" with 2000 GS the last month, but I'm leading out of my friends! :D

Yeah I noticed, my fiancee was like "how can he have that much points?" :D

I'm at like 8600 or so atm, but I never had the 360! But it's gonna be hard catching up to those that did. I also have a few RL friends with 60k GS or more that had the 360 for most of last gen. That's still quite a lot when you think... 60 games worth of points. Even if someone had the 360 the whole gen and the X1 for almost a year, that's still like 7 games a year fully completed and since most people don't fully complete most things, it's probably closer to 10 games a year, which is closing in to a new game bought every month :D

In other news, how are people's controllers holding up? Mine is still pristine and there is no wear on it, but I did fry the USB-port on it with a bad cable. I will get it warranty exchanged next month when I finally get a second controller so I dont have to be all controllerless :p While it's probably related to bad batches, but the PS4 analog stick coating issues make me wonder if anyone has anything similar on Xbox One controller? Overall I think the controller is a home run in just about every way and there's very little I'd change. I do wish they would've written the names of the menu and view buttons on the controller. It's really hard to tell someone "press the.. ugh.. button right from the Xbox-button", whereas 360 controller clearly has back and start (at least so I recall they are called?)

Yeah - almost 9 years with achievements will garner a score like that. Especially when I only have like 3 games 'fully' completed.

Lots of renting :).

Mine are still in pretty good shape. Hell my OG 360 controllers still work like a champ. (Been playing a little Minecraft and finally got around to playing Witcher 2 to get ready for the 3rd.)
