Hey guys. We here at Achievement Hunter love trying out new things. Well…let me rephrase that.

Geoff loves thinking up new ideas. Then he says “Hey Jack, I have this new idea.” And then we discuss it. Typically when his ideas don’t involve physical punishment to myself, they are fun. But of course, they always end up being more work for me.

So, this morning, when Geoff said, “Hey Jack, I have an idea…let’s play HORSE!” I thought to myself, hey, that’s actually kind of cool. Upon hearing that, Geoff decided that it would be my responsibility to actually produce the damn thing. Great. So, we spent about three hours playing and having a good time, then I spent the next two cutting the video while Geoff listened to Howard Stern and read gossip blogs.

What came out of this whole ordeal is the video you see below. Let us know if you like it, we’re thinking about making it in to a series…which means even more work for me…fantastic. Merry Christmas indeed.

AHWU is here! Enjoy!

DICE have recently announced a community challenge for everyone playing Battlefield: Bad Company 2 to get involved with, but you’ll have to work as a team.

The Vietnam DLC pack is due for release on December 21st and includes 4 new multiplayer maps to improve your Bad Company experience, but there’s a hidden 5th map. DICE have announced today that this 5th map, Operation Hastings from the 2004 PC game Battlefield: Vietnam, will be made available with the Vietnam DLC pack once the community reach 69 million team actions from the starting date. These include repairing vehicles, resupply drops, healing team mates, spotting out enemies and reviving fallen comrades.
Every team action performed in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and the Vietnam expansion pack will be counted, including games across XBox 360, PS3 and PC, but only starting from December 21st when the official DLC launch date is.

The Vietnam pack is available for PC on the 18th from the EA Store and Steam, available Worldwide on XBox 360 from December 21st, while PS3 gets a staged release of 21st for North America and 22nd for Europe. All the details of the challenge and DLC release can be found here on the Battlefield blog.

Talking map packs and droppin’ pro tips.

James M. let us know that GamesRadar has a piece on ‘The Top 7 Games with Fantastic Flashbacks‘ – Halo 3: ODST comes in at #6. Always nice to be remembered! (c wut i did thar?)(Louis Wu 18:51:04 UTC)

Derek ‘_mantis’ Carroll and Eric ‘urk’ Osborne had 20 minutes of time on Major Nelson’s latest podcast to discuss the Noble Map Pack – the writeup gives you the timestamps, if that’s the particular part you want to listen to. Check it out!(Louis Wu 18:06:58 UTC)

Hedgemony has posted pages 17-23 of his “Guard Duty” comic – start in this post, then follow his links. His artwork is fantastic! (Louis Wu 18:00:51 UTC)

Hypertrooper got some cool Reach schwag from Microsoft Germany, but couldn’t use it – so he’s offering to give it to you. All you’ve got to do is provide him with a crazy Armor-Lock clip. It has to be yours (no submitting your friend’s cool kill or fail), it has to be a clip (not a screenshot), and it needs to be on Bungie.net (doesn’t need to be rendered, though that’s helpful). Submit your best shot before Friday, and a cool Reach hat and shirt can be yours!(Louis Wu 17:39:46 UTC)
