AH: 5 Weekend Hunts!
That’s right, 5 game sessions, 5 games and 5 chances to boost your Gamerscore! Here’s all the details you should need, as well as who you can contact for more details on each:
First up to the hosting plate, we have HurriHam looking for at least 6 players for multiplayer boosting in Rainbow Six Vegas 2. Preferrably players who can play for extended time slots instead of a drop in drop out session, but all players welcome!
Hammy’ll be starting from June 11th 8pm GMT, and going on till June 13th, or until all players have the achievements.
Contact him here on Achievement Hunter, or via his Gamertag: Hurricane Ham
Next up is jtusa425 dropping into some Firefight in Halo 3: ODST.
No times for this one, but he’ll be playing today, June 11th.
Contact him via his Gamertag: jtusa425 he also asks that only players who have already completed Vidmaster Challenge: Dj Vu apply… not sure why on that.
AH Admin NJ_Devils is hosting your XBLA fix this weekend, in Castle Crashers.
The cartoon craziness kicks off June 12th, from 7pm EST until Midnight.
Send him a message here on Achievement Hunter and he’ll send you an invite on the day to your Gamertag. So lookout for messages from GT: Im An Annamal
elitejelly is your next host, for the ever popular Gears of War 2!
The chainsaw massacre starts June 13th, from 4pm PDT.
Get in contact with him at his Achievement Hunter profile, or via his Gamertag: Elitejelly
Finally, HGN_Kevin returns to Timeshift and needs at least four players. If you want to take part in this one, download the free DLC and if you have the spare MS points the 2nd DLC pack to go for 100% of the Gamerscore.
Because of travelling through time, this Weekend Hunt actually starts on Monday June 14th at 1pm PST.
Get in contact with him at his Achievement Hunter profile, or via his Gamertag: NightHawk673
If you want to host a future Weekend Hunt, post the details in this group thread to get some frontpage attention.
