Had a crazy game of slayer last week..
http://www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStat...=IDreamOfJamie
26 kills 16 assists, 7 deaths. Spree of 22, Rampage, 24 BR kills. Felt like old times.


I've been mostly playing Swat though. Getting my groove back. That's really all I have interest in playing. Swat or Grifball.
Switching game types like we do just screws me up. Going from Slayer to Snipers to Swat just makes me terrible.
So I am mostly sticking with Swat from now on. It's nice to be consistently decent in Swat again. Got my lostpowerdotcom back to a 43. Going to work hard to get my 45.

Xbox Live update preview program now accepting applicants

by Ross Miller, posted Jul 20th 2009 at 7:12PM
Looking to be in the envy of all your friends Xbox 360 online friends? As they did once before with NXE, Microsoft is launching an update preview program for its upcoming Xbox Live dashboard enhancements, which for this round includes Games on Demand, Netflix movie parties, and user ratings -- better luck next time, Facebook aficionados. A Microsoft Connect account is required for registration, and lucky participants will be notified by July 31st. Hit up the read link to throw your hat (and gamertag) in the ring for a chance to be selected -- no promises you'll get in, but can't hurt to try, right?

[Via Joystiq; thanks, Ken]

Just a heads up, if you see an XBL 1-month card at the store, get it. They're discontinued.
