i dont think RB3 ever had that right? It probably would have been too dangerous with the 83 songs
God I remember those, brutal achievements.
Bladder of steel was just evil, you know full well some strawberry floater has done that pissing into 2L Coke bottle
Yeah. Some...strawberry floater. Some strawberry floater indeed.

I always wanted to do that but never found the time. The achievement I mean, not piss in a bottle.

That's a shame, it was fun. Rock Band 1 was probably harder because you could only access it from the "World Tour" which requires at least 2 players locally. I'm pretty sure in RB2 you could solo it which made it a bit easier if you didn't know someone else who could play well enough for 8 hours or however long it took.
Probably the best ones I've done thinking about it

Yeah, it doesn't help that my instrument of choice is vocals too, I was worried about knackering my voice! Supoose I could have done Expert Bass, but there's always a track or two that would have kicked my ass. I guess the worry of failing it and losing all that time made me not bother.

Not buying that, I’ve done fifteen hour Rock band stunts on vocals before and had no issues.

If I'm not mistaken you didn't have to do the expert and bladder of steel one at the same time. Although obviously that meant running the bloody thing twice.

103th Platinium: Suicide Guy.
Pretty easy 100%. Took me 2-3 hours. So worth a look for an easy 100% on PS4 and X Box.
And no, it's not offensive as the title says.

I mean it doesn't matter, but.....y'know. Bit disappointing.
Give it time, they occasionally get stuck. Quite often they'll pop while you're playing a totally unrelated game.
Well, still no sign of these achievements! I've had a look online and it seems to be a fairly common problem. I suppose it might be patchable.
Still, though.

Probably would be fixed in the next patch. Still annoying as hell though.
At least I can put Just Cause 4 off until it's patched.

Got my 5th and 6th Xbox completions of the year this week. Finally polished off Soulcalibur and Asemblance.

Grats man, you're flying this year! Think I've got four or five completions done this year, if you have Game Pass I recommend rattling through Ark as it's literally just typing a load of codes in.

Someone in my friends list (think it’s someone I hooked up with to get a Far Cry 5 co-op achievement) is already over 16k for this month. Includes some games I’ve never even heard of. Korgan? I, Hope?

Korgan is a free game, and a very easy completion indeed. Not sure if it's still only available on the US marketplace, but it's easy enough to switch and set it downloading.

Ah, US-only would explain why I’ve never heard of it.

I'm currently trying to finish off Letter Quest before it's removed from Game Pass but man am I finding it a slog. It's a decent enough game but having to play (slightly) different versions of the same level four times is pretty dull stuff. I guess it doesn't help that I'm playing in one large chunk whereas it's probably more suited to smaller sessions.

Isn’t it cheaper to buy it while it’s on game pass? So you can buy it instead of it going out of game pass and price goes up?

It is, but I don't tend to buy games, especially if I can pull my finger out and get it done for free.
