Achievement Bounty 9-24-2010

I really didn’t accomplish much today even though it looks like a decent bounty. Most of it was done while I was sleeping.  You can set up a turbo controller to have Karaoke Revolution: AI Encore 2 run back the same song as long as your heart desires. Doing so makes getting the 200 platinum and 25 million achievements a breeze. We got the next Podcast all recorded, so look for that in a few days. 

Not sure how many messages I’ve received over time about wanting to be on my Xbox live friends list and I really do feel bad about denying you. As you may know, the limit is 100 friends and I’ve been at the limit since 2006. 🙁 Here’s the deal, if Microsoft does up the friends limit, I want the people that have been following me from the beginning to be on it. I will throw up a discussion topic about it on my FaceBook page. All you have to do is say ADD ME and put your Gamertag. I already know what’s going to happen when that day comes, so I’m just getting prepared for it. Alternatively, you can send me a 4,000 Microsoft point card or a big bag of beef jerky to get on it now. muhahahaha…kidding btw.

Change Your Passion For Glory

Achievement Bounty 9-23-2010

A rocky inspired achievement gained through an American Idol game? Not sure how this one got by me, but once Trueachievements gets revived that sucker is going in my case. Not changing my stance on avatar items, but I will buy some Rocky items if they ever become available. So, Kobe jersey and Rocky clothing is as far as I’m willing to go. Do any of you spend more money on avatar clothing than real clothing? I’d like to hear that story.

NBA 2k11 Player Ratings Revealed: Kobe Is Rolling Over In His Grave

The majority of the NBA2k11 player ratings were released today. Kobe, Lebron, and Wade sit at the top of the NBA 2k mountain with a 97 rating. Not really a surprise there and I do think Wade and LeBron are 97’s. Both Wade and LeBron are extremely talented and gifted ballers and perhaps they are slowly creeping up on Kobe while he ages. But let’s be real, could Wade or LeBron do what Kobe did last season with a broken index finger on their shooting hand? HELL NO! I came to that conclusion by taking their past injuries into account and how they reacted. Right before the injury bug hit Kobe, he was playing the best basketball I have ever witnessed. The injuries slowed him down a lot, but he did what he had to do, to win it all. He could of just let off the gas and used the injuries as an excuse, but he somehow converted pain into motivation. That is the kind of thing that separates him from the pack.

Guess there is no real way to give ratings for will, determination, focus and other attributes that cannot be determined. Kobe is off the charts in those categories, only matched by few in NBA history. Yeah, maybe I’m biased on this subject, but in 2006 I was sitting in American Airlines Arena watching the Heat beat the Pistons in the conference finals championship. I have D-wade’s shoes, my girlfriend has his jersey, heck, I even have a Wade bobble head. Wade and LeBron are awesome, but come on. I’m not trying to say who to be a fan of, I just think it’s clear cut who the best is. The best individual basketball player of all time is either; A: Kobe or B: Michael. GOAT vs. GOAT. Kobe is just one shy of MJ…..

Other notable player ratings:

Chris Paul (95) At least they got the best point guard right.

Kevin Durant (91) The guy that will probably carry the torch.

Carmelo Anthony (93)

Rajon Rondo (87) vs. Derrick Rose (85)

Deron Williams (92)

John Wall (81)

Brandon Roy (88)

Gimpy vs. Gimpy Greg Oden (75) vs. Bynum (77)

Top big men Tim Duncan (90) Pau Gasol (89) Dwight Howard (88)

Dirk Nowitzki (83) underrated!

Steve Nash (85)
