What's your story xbots?

My story is that I don't care about achievements because they are about grinding and wasting time rather than skill. Useless addition.

This lines up with me owning an Xbox primarily for Halo. Although nothing in this screenshot shows it, Lost Odyssey was one of my favorite games on Xbox.

For some reason it's neglecting most of my X360 era, I guess I wasn't on TA then? Or maybe it didn't take to the system.


I'm glad to see it still represents my favorite things. RE franchise, Deadly Premonition and AC Odyssey.

My first gamertag was banned cause I was reported for cheating in Halo 2 for being too good. I guess MS didn't even look into it and my emails went to the void so I rebooted. Fuckers.

Not sure why "Yakuza / Like A Dragon" and "Yakuza" are considered different games but otherwise this all checks out. Love my music games, loved Dead Rising in its prime, and I used to love Sonic quite a bit in my early Xbox days.

You're an Xbox legend, Appy! :pie_starstruck:
 
Anyone know if truetrophies are doing a similar thing? Or is not possible because of how much Sony is (not) sharing stats-wise?
 
Wild all this data is viewable - going way back. Very cool.
Some of the stats are screwed up though.
It says I spent 2000 hours on Killer Instinct Classic and I played that port maybe like 3 times.

Hopefully no one would mind me hiding my ID. Bought my Xbox Series S in Nov 2022, probably 2nd best console purchase :messenger_beaming:

The fact that Xbox 360 makes up 82% of my gamerscore and 2007 alone is 23% of it shows how much they lost me over the years. There was a point where I was part of an initial small group where our profiles bugged out because we reached too many games played and for a lengthy period of time we couldn't use our accounts (I think for me it ended up around two months) and they had to send us fixed profiles loaded on to a memory card after a lot of back and forth communication. For some the first one worked and for others it took a couple of attempts. That was strike one but at that point I was still in so deep that it didn't lose me. And in some completely stupid way there was kind of a special feeling about being part of the first group to break our XBL profiles :messenger_tears_of_joy: But eventually one too many RROD drove me to Sony and then it was just one developer loss after another that made me love the Xbox brand to begin with such as Bizarre, FASA, Ensemble and even losing D.I.C.E. to EA after games like Rallisport Challenge and Midtown Madness. Losing Zipper to Sony after Crimson Skies which is just a double pain after their death with Sony. Getting rid of their sports division with how good Top Spin, Links and Amped were. There was even a period where I got really into the Kinect and games like Dance Central which is probably what fueled some of those bigger played dots in 2010 since I think by then they had already started to lose me. And a bunch more I am surely forgetting. Eventually all that was left for me was Forza and why I started just considering it a Forza box as evidence by both Forza series being in my top game series and even that is just down to Horizon now (And I will be playing that on PS sooooo yeah.....). Oddly as somebody that loved the Xbox brand as much as I didn't back in the day I never got into Halo or Gears. But the reasons they lost me over the years is why I don't get people that blame that Activision deal as the reason for their current problems when it started long before that IMO.

Seeing that 17-21 chart with so many empty months makes me sad when I think about how much I loved the Xbox brand at one point. There was a brief boost with Series X and at least playing it a bit every month but that was basically just a bit of Forza Horizon most months. Even with Game Pass I didn't venture much off the Forza path and would often buy and play games included with Game Pass on PS instead so they just couldn't win me back no matter what. Cancelled Game Pass and unhooked the Series X when Horizon got released on PS5 so it is sad to think that this may never change from what it is now short of it there are more games like Indiana Jones that unlock achievements at the same time as trophies and I still need to get back to that so I guess it will change when I do that at worst. I will still cherish the original Xbox which is cemented as one of my favorite consoles ever and those early 360 years despite the RROD and breaking XBL but what could have been. Maybe I could have been part of the first group to break something else! :messenger_hushed:

And don't ask me what happened with Crimson Dragon. I barely played it but that and another game I can't remember (LocoCycle perhaps) have crazy time played for me for some reason. Oh and yes I know I am a Canadian stereotype with NHL (Combined with PS it would be 23/23) and NHL 2K being two of my top series.
