    Have all the Elysian achievements, some of the Toy Soldiers, I have Happy wars and those seem like simple achievemnts, I could maybe do this……..

  • Anonymous

    Excellent. I have 4 of the games and 8 of the achievements. Looks like I’m starting Deadlight and/or Toy Soldiers this weekend. Deadlight is probably more seasonally appropriate …

    • Michael Clarke

      It’s a pretty quick 400 too… especially if you use a guide to find all the collectibles. But honestly, they’re not hidden all that well and I found all but like 3 by myself.

  • http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

    Hmm… yeah I can do this. I need to win so I can has Keflings DLC!

    I’d like to pitch my fifteen winners of one code idea again. It’s still fifteen codes.

    • K4rn4ge

      I second that idea !

      • http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

        Lol @ the downvotes again.

        I’M TRYING TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR YOU (me) TO WIN SOMETHING, DUMMIES.

        • Stranger Danger

          Excuse me, but with your attitude the only dummie here is you, I think you still need to mature a little more.

          • http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

            He said, with his guest post.

    • Michael Clarke

      I agree wholeheartedly.

    • Anonymous

      I totally agree. I think the more people who win the better considering that until a few months back it was anyone who qualified would win. I’d be just as happy to win 1 code as I would to win 3 if I knew two other people would join in on it.

      • http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

        I think PlayXBLA just doesn’t want the extra admin work, which is understandable as dealing with fifteen people is harder than dealing with five.

  • chris

    i think i can do this

  • http://twitter.com/MaryKateClark Marykate Clark

    That’s doable …While I’m marathon gaming for charity, I can try to get some achievements I’ve neglected. =-) ! …. (Charity Marathon ———> http://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&participantID=34103 )

  • Adrian Bolstridge

    Yay for an excuse to finally get back to Dust!

  • Anonymous

    “For this challenge, we are looking for the amount of Achievements earned, not titles played”

    So you can complete the challenge if you have 12 achievements from 3 games?

    • PerfectionShaun

      I won it a couple weeks back with 12 achievements from one game only. You just have to have played any number of the 4 games, have a total of 12 achievements from said games including the required achievements from that/those games

      • http://twitter.com/AntaraelDulacre Antarael Dulacre

        I can’t recognize that there was a challenge where you only had to own ONE game lol

      • chris

        i agree with Antarael. how can you win with just any achievements. they set out the achievement you have to get, that’s the challenge.

      • http://twitter.com/Navarin Buster Wolf

        That’s completely wrong and you are either a liar or PlayXBLA didn’t verify achievements earned. Again.

      • Anonymous

        Dude, be honest now… There’s no point in lying about it because no one will think you’re cool for it, so come clean – are you bullshitting or did you honestly win that way? If so, that’s pretty disappointing because those aren’t the challenge rules.

      • PerfectionShaun

        It’s all in the first line of the rules “we are not looking for titles played, we are looking for number of achievements earned”. This week happy wars has 20 achievements, if you had 12 of them you could enter but only if you had the 4 required. But if you only had 3 of the 4 then it’s bad luck even if you had more than 12 cheeves.

        • http://twitter.com/AntaraelDulacre Antarael Dulacre

          That’s NOT how it works…seriously…

          The first line only implies that you don’t need all 4 Games, but you need at least 3 of 4 titles to get 12 of the listed achievements out of 16 here…otherwise none of the rules or the specific achievements you have to get would make any sense…if you really WON, call yourself lucky because it was verification error…

  • chris

    just sent email. this weeks was a little easier then previous. the hardest part was waiting to get onto happy wars multiplayer.

  • Michael Clarke

    Cool, I can finally do one of these. Just need to get a 1000 hit combo in Dust as I already have the other 3 for it all 8 for Happy Wars & Deadlight.

    Here’s hoping I actually win. Not gonna get my hopes up though.

    • Anonymous

      Hope you got the 1000 hit combo it’s pretty easy to get in the first “boss battle” with the two large golem like dudes at the start of the game if you use the Y button while jumping in combo with the stuff your little flying fox guy shoots out. The only annoying thing is that you need to avoid getting hit after getting to 1000 as that breaks your combo chain and basically negates you getting an achievement (happened to me the first time and had to restart that sequence, really annoyed me)

  • Slam Shot Sam

    I come here every weekend and this will be just the second time I can enter! I hjave 100% of the achievements in Happy Wars, Toy Soldiers and Deadlight; fingers crossed I win and I’ll probably choose Dust as one of the games!

  • Anonymous

    Ah, crap, I still can’t enter :-/
    I don’t have Deadlight and Toy Soldiers…

  • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1043341508 Anthony John Squeo

    My entry for this weekend’s achievement challenge has been turned in! Thank you all again for having these. Who would have thought, I’d go back and play Toy Soliders again.

    Third time I’ve been able to enter. Fingers crossed that I win so I can gift my three nephews an XBLA game each
