WRUP: mopping up edition

Well folks, here we are writing up the first WRUP of September 2007. In a mere eighteen days, Halo 3 will be gracing our Xbox 360 disc trays, where it will likely stay for the foreseeable future. That means we have just shy of three weeks to finish up all those other Xbox 360 games that are sitting on the shelf. Time to wrap up Oblivion, time to run through BioShock a second time (those little sisters don't stand a chance this time), and time to put all those Xbox Live Arcade games to bed. What games do you have to finish before September 25th? Regardless, as always, we must ask: what will you be playing this weekend?

Leaderboards:
Xbox 360 Fanboy Leaderboard
Xbox 360 Fanboy Leaderboard Mk. II

X3F Gamertags:
Richard Mitchell -- SenseiRAM
Dustin Burg -- SuperDunners

F.E.A.R, Quake 2 and PDZ. I just can't get round to playing them. And of course achievements all over the shop.

man, you are so right. I have a ton of games to finish! I guess I'll work on Stranglehold. Maybe I'll go through Bioshock and pick up those tape recorders. I have enough games to last me all year... but I don't have the time.

Hmmm...not too much, but tuesday will be my game night...so that should be fun. Probably just do more Forza racing, and have the comp race for me. Oh, and if I get a chance I'll boot up my COD4 MP Beta.

Going to be working on Blue Dragon mostly, as well as getting in a bit of time with Pokemon Diamond. I'm terrible at finishing RPGs.

Yea, I really am into bikes. I love em to death. On that note...i hate you. the 06 Gix6 is my dream bike. LOL...Especially the black edition with the Carbon Fibre front and rear huggers. I love the new 1098S from Ducati too, but my dream is to get the 06 GSX-R600 and drop a 750 engine into it as a sleeper. Or just get the 750 and buy a 600 sticker. LOL

And yea Toro, we've had those profiles for a while, if you've posted on Joystiq, they had the same linking process going on a while ago. lol...check mine...over 1200 comments at X3F! W00t W00t. what I don't like about it is that my username used to link to my site, but now it links to my profile on blogsmith. oh well, now people can see how much of a Xbox360Fanboy I am.

Aw man, I took this semester off because I started a new job and I still cant finish my 3 games. I have Fight Night 3 done, 955 in Madden 08 and only 350 in Bioshock. I just started doing Jiu Jitsu again and me and my gf's anniversary is comming up not to mention I am getting back in school in January. Now with all these sick games comming out I will never finish anything. FTW.

Well I started going back and getting some old titles I had yet to play from Gamefly so this weekend it will probably be Bullet Witch. I'm going to go back and play a bunch of launch titles over the next few weeks.

I know Dj it's ok to be jealous! lol
Don't try to fool me with your sleeper, I race my bike haha. But it's really sad that I'm going to sell it :'( I'm planning to get married soon so I'm saving up money for wedding/house. My riding days are limited :(

I never had a link under my name so that's why I never noticed, but I'm almost at 300! You got me beat by 4x's mine.

Just finished Two Worlds (fantastic!) and Bioshock (great!) so I'll just be playing some Madden 08 until Eternal Sonata and maybe finish up a couple DS games I left hanging.

I'd like to get a hold of a PSP slim this weekend but every shop in my area is holding them until Monday :(

I'll be playing Super Stadust HD on my PS3 and Mario Strikers Charged on my Nintendo Wii, since my XBox 360 is RRODing since last weekend.

I really, really, really would like to be playing Bioshock though.

You race the gix? as in tracking it?

Wow...that sucks that your going to have to sell it. Mine's worse...I'm at school, don't have the money to move out and get one, cuz my parents are gay and don't want me riding while im living under their roof. So I have to finish school first which is still a year and a half away... :(
