parsnipnose3000 Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Hey guys, those of you who missed out on the achievement for playing this on September 17th when the game launched late, and forgot the subsequent year, don't forget Sep 17th is coming up soon. Otherwise you'll be doomed to 950gs for another year. If you miss it, you may be able to set your time zone back to it's still the 17th. Not entirely sure about that though.

X monkfish69 X Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Yeah, been waiting for this since... 17/09/09 Not going to complete my 1000G as I still have other achievements to do, but it means that I don't have to wait ANOTHER year to get it ! I'm surprised that there hasn't been a site update on the homepage as a reminder, but there is still time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortug Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 I set the alarm in my phone three months ago.........gonna try putting the time zone forward so I can get it on the 16......... don't think it will work adjusting the time zone on your xbox. if you should adjust time zone anywhere, it would have to be on xbox live. why do you think you have to be connected to xbox live to get this achievement?

Mikey1610 Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Off topic but has anybody had any issues unlocking the Victory or Death achievement? This is unlocked by killing somebody with the Truly Inspired achievement. 3 of us were in a game last night and all of us have Truly Inspired but when we tried to kill each other the achievement didn't unlock. Is there anything specific to the achievement not noted in the guide or does it not always unlock straightaway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert-da-pro Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 don't think it will work adjusting the time zone on your xbox. if you should adjust time zone anywhere, it would have to be on xbox live. why do you think you have to be connected to xbox live to get this achievement? I just changed timezone it was 1 hour left here til midnight to reach 17th, but i changed to 1 hour foward timezone and connected xbox live soon as game started up achievement popped!

nascarjohn Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 So...how many others forgot to do this after remembering the whole week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opiate42 Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Me. I got this game almost a year ago, finally fired it up in October a couple weeks too late. Had forgotten about the Sept. 17th thing. Don't even know if I'll have the game for it next year. shrug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skorpion XBA Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Just a reminder to everyone who has this game but hasn't got this achievement yet. I bought it last October at GameStop for dirt-cheap and didn't even know about this achievement. I can't wait to get this achievement for my full 1000....and then the next day I'll be playing Borderlands 2! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtahOSB Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Just pinging this thread to keep it up top. Only 6 days for those who missed this achievement last year. Don't forget this year too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
