Achievement Hunter Weekly Update

AHWU (Achievement Hunter Weekly Update) is a weekly series published by Rooster Teeth. It is hosted by Geoff Ramsey and Jack Pattillo, and features a rundown of new game releases as well as game news for the week. It airs Mondays on AchievementHunter.com as well as RoosterTeeth's YouTube Channel. The series is primarily popular not for its news aspect, but for what goes on in the background of the videos.

Segments
The show opens with a 5-10 second clip introducing the show that is created by a different member of the RT community each week. The content of this clip varies from week to week and may be 3D computer animation, a song, or clips from previous AHWUs.

The show then has someone proclaim what the episode number of the show is. Originally this was announced by a member of the RT staff or famous members of the gaming community, but recently this has shifted to members of the RT community sending in clips of themselves saying the number in notable locations, such as on the Great Wall of China or in front of Old Faithful.

Geoff will then give a brief rundown of any new games, both retail and on the Xbox Live Arcade that are coming out over the next week, as well as any new DLC packs coming out that will add achievements.

During this segment, Geoff will choose an "Achievement of the Week", one achievement coming out that week (either in a new game or DLC) that he finds particularly notable for some reason. Early on he would pick a "Fuck You Achievement of the Week" that was particularly challenging, but more recent episodes frequently have him choose an achievement that either contains a reference to an old movie he likes or a double-entendre about genitalia.

Then, for the second half of the video, Jack will talk about notable news in the gaming world, opening with the phrase "As far as this week goes.". In addition to stating the news, he will add his opinion of what going on. However, his opinions are generally noncommital phrases such as "So that's interesting" or "We'll have to wait and see"

The final section will have Geoff say what the "video of the week" is, which is usually from a Let's Play that was aired that week. Then there is another montage of RT community saying which AHWU it is and where they are.
