X3F TV -- Points>Life: One Shot, One Kill
What's this, you ask? That's right, X3F TV has finally spawned an Achievement Point focused weekly video feature called Points>Life. Dedicated to bringing you the details on obtaining the easiest points around as well as tips on how to get the hard ones! Since the Xbox 360 library is pretty vast you may already have some of these points but we'll eventually hit one you haven't unlocked yet.
In the inaugural episode of Points>Life on X3F TV we tackle the mission "One Shot, One Kill" in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare on the veteran difficulty setting. With this handy tip you can ensure the onslaught of spawning enemy forces will be no match for you and your hunt for those sweet Achievement points!

Excellently done, Xav. I look forward to the inevitable (and long) post on showing how to "Kill a million zombies" from Dead Rising.

HAHAHAHA! Oh the sweetness of the Ch33v0z!
Seriously though, this is a great idea. Are you going to be taking requests? I say "Mile High Club" cheevo, should be super easy. ;)

Thanks but playing this game on Regular was brutal enough (not in terms of difficulty but in terms of enjoyment). You couldn't pay me enough to touch Veteran mode.

Wow X3F, this is awesome. Props to you guys for doing this. Ive been having all 1000gp on this game and the hardest level on Veteran is No fighting in the War Room on the second half of that level. It was frustrating for sure. Mile High Club is very difficult as well. You just have to time and pattern all the enemy movements.

Go prone around the corners and you should be able to kill them without getting killed.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. In case no one realized this was the achievement related surprise I mentioned in the comments of this week's Fancast.
Next up for Points>Life? Tune in next week to find out!
Also, what does everyone think of the name "Points>Life," (as in Points Greater Than Life)? We kinda just threw it out there and it stuck around the Fanboy towers.

Too bad Achievement Junkie is already taken... Points>Life is good but doesn't exactly roll of the tongue...

The thing is there is no "trick" to that stage. You just have to be veeeeeeery patient and kill everysigle guy. I went left in the first hallway after you go downstairs, I just found it easier. Then you get to that last hallway and I went right and saved my flashbangs and nades until that last stretch. Once you get to that oart where you close off that door with the fire behind it the level is a peice of cake. I was having save point problems for some reason so its also another thing that added to the frustration.

Yeah, I love this. Just make sure you do a variety of games. It would suck if this became a Halo 3/COD4 cheat vid once a week. Love the site, guys.

Be great to see more vids like this, a very good feature and the name "Points>Life" will do.
That level was harsh on regular but maybe I'll have another go with those tips in mind. Cheers!

How about "I Heart Cheevos" as a possible name?
