This week we will get the tricky 5G achievement "Heading South on a White Bronco" which requires you to escape US Marshalls while riding an Hungarian Half Breed horse.

First things first you must get the White Bronco AKA the Hungarian Half Breed. They are a white horse with a tale face that can be found in the eastern region of Mexico (Or you can simply buy one at a store). Next you must go to the town of Blackwater and kill 3-4 people before the Blackwater cops come to get you. From there you go to the church on the edge of town and wait there with a Mauser Pistol and kill all the law enforcement as they come at you in a straight line. When you kill them all your wanted rating will disappear.

Now simply leave town and in about 5-10 minutes the US Marshalls will come to kill you. Simply out run them on your horse (which is pretty fast) and bam!5G.

As part of the podcast and blog's new design, I've decided to add another feature to the website. Every week, I will give you tips on achievements from various games.

This week, I will give you tips on a tricky achievement in Red Dead Redemption: Friends in High Places which is 10G.

Friends in High Places requires you to use a pardon letter to get off a $5000 bounty. There are two ways to do this achievement. You can either:

• A) just let your bounty rise naturally through the game
• B) Do it the quick way.

The quick way is to go to Blackwater where the local law enforcement is not that tough and just go on a massive killing spree (Your preferred gun should be the Mauser Pistol and make sure to stock up on ammo). If you kill all the law enforcement your bounty will go away. If this happens leave town for 2-5 minutes and come back and keep killing people. When your bounty hits $5000 leave town and lose your wanted rating then use your pardon letter in the Blackwater train station to pay off your bounty and BAM! 10 Gamerscore!

Two notes before you start: You should purchase a bandana in Escalera before you start this so your wanted rating doesn't go down OR, if you're too lazy, save in a different slot. And that's it for this week.

This is a weekly opinon article I write about a certain issue in the gaming industry. This does not in anyway express the opinons of the entire Youmedia or Library of Games staff.

This may be one of my lowest moments in Gaming. My Xbox 360 has cracked it's third game. Not scratched-Cracked. I put in Red Dead Redemption and suddenly CRACK. I hear a crack and the game goes black. I take it out and there's a big crack near the middle of the disc. This isn't new. This same thing happend to two of my previous games. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Modern Warfare 2. However those games didn't have such a special place in my heart like Red Dead Redemption did. I'm truely crushed that I can't play this game for the time being. Now before you blame me for either moving the 360 and putting it sideways let me explain. The Xbox hasn't been moved in months from it's horizontal position. It just cracked. It just enrages me how the PS3 and Wii have an almost perfect record yet Microsoft can't seem to fix anything. I'm already hearing early reports that the Xbox 360 slim is already tearing up games. This is unacceptable.

For too long Microsoft has been blaming it's fan base for the Red Rings (which I get monthly thank god they haven't destroyed the Xbox) and disc scratch. Instead of blaming users why don't you get off your lazy butt and fix the problem. No wonder Sony beating Microsoft. Microsoft can't keep it's act together. I hope that the Slim is better then the old 360 'cause I can't take anymore games being destroyed.

Note: The Actual blog will be posted tomorrow. The subject is achievements and trophies.

Let's get three things straight real quick. This is the greatest Western video game of all time. This is the best game of the year so far and one of the greatest video games I've ever played. Yes I know it sounds like hyperbole but it's true. Red Dead Redemption is set in the old west circa 1911. The federal goverment is quickly taming the west and the days of outlaws and renegades are coming to an end. You play as John Marston. A former outlaw who hung up his guns and started a family on a small farm when his fellow gang members abandoned him wounded after a robbery. Now the goverment has kidnapped Marston's family and threatend to kill them if Marston does not hunt down his former brothers in arms. This begins the amazing and epic story which sweeps you from the old west to revelutionary era Mexico.

Red Dead Redemption is the brainchild of Rockstar and Rockstar San Diego, the creators of the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Many of the same gunplay mechanics are in this game and GTA veterans will be right at home but this is not simply a GTA Wild West game. Several new mechanics are in this game which include an updated wanted system and a new dead eye aim mechanic which slow down time and allows you to mark targets Splinter Cell style in an amazing display of gunplay.
