Also played a little Assassins Creed III 3 online, gained 2 online levels, but got no achievements.

On a side note, spent several hours today playing on PC game that I installed about 6 months ago but never even launched it once: Star Wars - The Old Republic. Check it out - it is free to play (but if you do pay, you get some bonuses in the game) - http://www.swtor.com

2013-12-05 - More Wheel Man

Another day, when playing only one game, Wheelman. Decided to follow one forum post with description and location of all cinematic stunt jumps. Took some time and little head scratching with some locations, but after few hour - all 50 stunt jumps discovered and another 75G added to my score.

2013-12-04 - The Wheel Man

Today played mostly Wheelman, and attempted to get closer to 100% in Lego Star Wars II with no success at all.

In Wheelman got whopping 4 achievements. One for finishing one contract side mission. 2 for completing 2 story missions and one after I had driven in all of the districts in Barcelona. Total gain - 75G.

2013-12-03 - Lego is driving me nuts

Lego Star Wars II was definitely driving me nuts today. Tried to do the Falcon Flight achievement - one of the remaining "finish level without dying" levels. After attempt 10 or so I gave up ... for now.

Last two "don't die" achievements I got in total with 3 attempts - so I succeeded on one level during my first attempt. I died only once in second level before finishing it also successfully. This time I progressed to middle of the level and died almost at the same time almost in similar way. Not fun at all.

Well, you know how it goes, when stuck in a game, leave it for a while and do something else. So I worked my way little closer to 100% game completion. And then went off to play Wheelman.

Long story short - no achievements in Lego today.

In Wheelman did few story missions and did one "hot potato" side mission just to get an achievement :)

2013-12-02 - Lego and Wheelman... Again

Another day with those 2 games. Got achievements in both games.

Cloud Cover in Lego Star Wars TCS was another very easy one - after consulting all knowing Internet found out that I do not have to finish level with playing all way till level ends wearing helmet, it is enough to "save and exit" while wearing helmet. So ... super easy achievement actually.

Collecting all the mini-kits just took time and revisiting levels.

Also played a bit Wheelman. Got some easy achievements there.

2013-12-01 - New month starts with achievements in 3 games

Today got achievements in 3 games. +135G

I got 2 hard ones in Lego Star Wars II. Those are the ones where you have to fly around and you cannot use a "ghost" character to make it super-easy for you. You actually have to do it without getting killed. Hard stuff, took multiple tries.

Then I went and got 2 relatively easy ones in Lego Star Wars TCS. To get the "Arcade master" I went the easy route - fired up the arcade battle with 2 controllers, and used controller 2 to jump off the ledge 100 times - meaning the controller 1 got 100 "kills" and the achievement unlocked. "Cash in" was also easy when you know, in what mission and where to do it. :)

In the end of day played Wheelman and got 4 achievements during normal game progression - no grinding involved.
