You Don’t Know Jack
Status: Working through the last rounds Achievements: 20 of 50 Gamerscore: 430/1250 DLC Purchased: None (yet!) You Don’t Know Jack is the perfect trivia video game.

Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood
Status: 1 playthrough complete, no multiplayer Achievements: 35 of 60 Gamerscore: 690/1250 DLC Purchased: None There are few games that cause me to scream obscenities at my television on a regular basis that I still find enjoyable and push through to complete.

Dragon Age: Origins
Status: Completed Dragon Age: Origins 3 times Achievements: 57 of 76 Gamerscore: 1225/1750 DLC Played: Awakening Dragon Age wasn’t on my watch-list when it was announced.

7 Wonders 2
My growing love for puzzle games took a major leap forward when MumboJumbo sent 7 Wonders 2 my way.

DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue
Status: Completed Thongs of Virtue main story Achievements: 11 of 13 Gamerscore: 190/215 DLC Purchased: None Impressed with the first part of DeathSpank’s tale, I made sure to pick up the second installment before I stole Lord Von Prong’s Thong. It was a smart move because I immediately began playing Thongs of Virtue. Damn Hothead and their addictive game. …
DeathSpank
Status: Completed DeathSpank and cleaned up all those achievements Achievements: 12 of 12 Gamerscore: 200/200 DLC Purchased: None I picked up DeathSpank and its sequel during the recent EA sale on the Xbox Marketplace, months after checking out the demo and wishing I had the points to grab it at launch.

Status: Completed three endings, working on the last Achievements: 38 of 55 Gamerscore: 690/1140 DLC Purchased: None After the extreme disappointment that was Fable 3, I needed something to get me back on my 360.
