Presenting the X360F Leaderboard Mk. II

We invited our readers to play GOW together this week, encouraging them to check out our leaderboard and make friends. Many of you were disappointed that the leaderboard was full (they only allow 100 people per board), so we decided it was time to add another leaderboard and expand our community. Introducing the Xbox 360 Fanboy Leaderboard Mark II. It's just like the other one, except it features our would be mascot created by Alan Fowle for last month's Lumines contest (pictured on the right). If you couldn't make it onto our first board, head over to MGC and register. If you've already registered for the first one, there's no need to register for the second. Before you go, we need a name for our mascot (assuming Alan is okay with us using it). Allow me to make the first suggestion: Button Face. See? You can do better than that, right?

Sweet 360 Google plugin: GooMGC 2.0

360 Fanboy reader Yves De Pryck has completed GooMGC version 2.0. For those that don't know, GooMGC is a Google homepage plugin that helps Live members keep track of all sorts of information. The plugin displays your GamerCard -- in a plethora of styles, via MyGamerCard.net -- as well as the GamerCards of 16 of your closest friends. Also included is a Gamerscore reference chart so you can track your exploits. And if that's not enough for you, the plugin also houses a handy MS Points converter in a variety of currencies. Just stick this puppy next to your Google reader -- tuned to the 360 Fanboy RSS, of course -- and you've got yourself a one stop shop for all of your 360 needs. Go get it and tell us what you think.

Customize your Gamercard [update 1]


Tired of your crappy old Gamercard? Then spruce it up with the Xbox Live Gamercard Generator! The XLGG operates on the same basic principles as MyGamerCard.net, but with some important differences. Unlike MyGamerCard, the XLGG lets you enhance your Gamercard with custom designs, like the one pictured above (rawr). The process is simple: enter your Gamertag -- and Live clan if you have one -- pick a design, and presto, you have a brand new Gamercard. The website outputs in GIF, JPG, and PNG formats. It also produces a URL, BB code, and HTML code for posting your card on blogs, forums, or even your own (Windows) desktop. Check it out and tell us what you think.

[Via del.icio.us]

Update 1: as you can read in the comments, MyGamerCard.net has grown quite a bit since I last used it. More options and user submitted themes actually put it ahead of XLGG in many respects. Not only that, it's also officially supported by Microsoft. Thanks for setting me straight, everyone.
