Component body

The Xbox Achievements module was created to display a user's Xbox achievements on a drupal website in as nice a way as possible. The module started off as a module which had the user upload the data via XML.
The data would need to be taken from Xbox.com. Later on the Project was changed by the arrival of xboxapi.com which allowed changes to be made to take advantage of the webservices xboxapi provide.
There are number of issues with the module in it's current state.

  1. The gamertag is hardcoded into the code.
  2. There is no menu which would allow for configuration of the module (only thinking gamertag).
  3. The module takes the information from xboxapi.com when the user clicks a menu link. It would be better if a cron was setup to grab the information once per hour. Xboxapi has a 150 webservice call limit in place.

Future Ideas
Possibly get PS3 achievements to be displayed also. There is a webservice for PS3 Achievements at http://www.psnapi.com.ar/
