Xbox 360 wedding cake unlocks Achievement

by Richard Mitchell on Jul 27th 2009 11:45AM

Joystiq reader Charles was married recently, and he sent us word that his new wife surprised him with a very special groom's cake. We have dubbed it the XCake 360. It comes complete with 120SB (sprinkle-bite) hard drive and a wireless cake-troller. We're also guessing it's not a launch cake, as it clearly hasn't yet suffered the Red Ring of Death. Still, we get the feeling it probably didn't last much longer than moments after this picture was taken.

The cake also has an Achievement pop-up on top which reads: "Achievement Unlocked: Until Death Do Us Part." Now, Charles, comes one of the most important decisions for a newly married couple: Separate or joint Xbox Live accounts?

I would like to say Congrats to Charles first off. I need to find myself a wife that understands that I love to play Xbox 360 & if she's into it even better.

It's a trap!

how much gamescore is that achievement worth?

Probably not as much as the Divorce Achievement.

shhh. that ones secret.

-1000GS

So, is the cake a lie or not?

It'd be funny if they tried to cut it, and it ended up being a brick.

lol

That looks delicious. Congrats, Charles. May you not suffer what most of the married men do. (And separate accounts! For your own good.)

Charlie,

i hope you've enjoyed your Xbox 360, this cake is a reminder that you're not likely to play it much anymore.. amongst the honey-do's.. chores around the house... and random trips to the grocery store.. you're not going to see your beloved 360...

Sorry pal.

I wanted a cake like that, but my wife got me GOW2 instead. I'm not complainin though.

Definitely have to have seperate accounts, Charles!

Codey's right. And if your wife is like mine, playing your 360 is basically infidelity.

We both have separate live accounts just to make that clear. And Codey H., Charles will see many more days of his xbox. I bring him home practically one game a week since I work at Best Buy. It's good therapy for us to play FPS' together. Love you Charles!

Congrats on the marriage! And that cake looks soooo good. As for separate or join Xbox accounts - the way we do it, we have separate accounts AND separate Xbox's. It makes things so much easier :)
