Unlock the Achievement contest is underway

by Justin McElroy { Apr 22nd 2008 at 10:30AM }

If you're anything like us, you love the visceral thrill of getting achievements, but hate all the laborious game playing you have to do to get them. Now, thankfully, there's the Unlock the Achievement scavenger hunt which replaces all the thumbstick manipulation and button presses with good old-fashioned squinting.

Just register, then beat cheeks over to one of the participating websites (like our personal favorite, Xbox 360 Fanboy) and start combing the pages for little locked achievement icons like the one above. Whoever finds the most is going to win the greatest prize of all: Unspecified prizes. Start poking around soon (you have five days) and let us know how you fare.

Good game, everybody! Unfortunately for all of you, I've already found every last one of them. Including the bonus ones. And special edition ones. And easter egg ones. So no need to continue your search for it will all be in vain! G'day!

::sneaks off to look for more::

I'm not playing this game. Too much work for unspecified prizes. But I did see one of those icons at this page for those of you interested.

I keep on getting this:
Server Default page

If you see this page it means:
1. hosting for this domain is not configured
or
2. there's no such domain registered in Plesk

What you can do:

* Using Plesk, you can create domains with web hosting on a single physical server.
