XBOXLC SEEMS TO BE DOWN AND OUT

Awhile back we reported on a site that was featured at Xbox.com called XboxLC where you could generate your own customized online gamercard.

Well, if you signed up, you’re probably aware that not only have they not updated any of the gamercards registered with them in quite some time, but trying to accomplish anything via their website is pretty much an exercise in SQL errors On top of that. their forums are pretty much impossible to register for – I’m still waiting for an e-mail validation some 2 weeks after signing up for them.

In all fairness, they probably weren’t ready to have tens of thousands of people sign up. It’s a great idea, and I love the designs, but odds are I’ll be heading back to the classic version of my online gamercard soon as I’d rather have an updated card than a pretty, yet out of date one.

SO MANY WAYS TO BRAG

Reader J.M. sent us word that there is another Xbox Gamercard site out there that we missed. GamerScoreChart.com takes all your hard work and sums it up nicely into a little graph so you can not only tell your friends that you’re ahead of them in achievement points, but that if you look at the charts, you’re gaining at faster rate than they are, meaning you’ll be pulling ever further away as time goes on. That’ll show ’em!

While you can click here to check out the site, don’t thank me for the find, thank J.M., Unless of course you’re the person people compare their graphs with when they want to look better than someone else. Then you can curse him out all day long. It’s your choice really.
