The 20,000 point GamerScore Challenge. Many websites like to follow the progress of gamers and the most common way of doing so is by monitoring the number of GamerScore (GS) points (gained by unlocking achievements) a player has.
I put this challenge to you. My individual goal (HM) is to increase my GS by 20,000 points by September 1st 2010. As this seemed a popular idea, many freeola users have jumped in with their own personal challenges.
If you are interested in joining the challenge, just post your target score and how many points you are away (or just a target amount), along with your Gamertag and I'll put you on the board below.
Keep posting updates when you unlock achievements. The best way (and most manageable) would be to post the game title and the number of points achieved from the start date of your target. For instance: if I had a Viva Pinata and unlocked 600 points, I would post: "Viva Pinata - 600 points".. Points gained from before the target date do not count.
LAST UPDATE - gr13ve - 8 games - 695 points

I've got about 500 now myself. Can't be far off mastering the skills either, 2 accessories and Double SP makes it a tad too easy. What is a double hard blank is the
"Get every treasure in every area"
"Explore every area"
Both for 10GS each 0_o

To be fair i can understand why you get lost in LO - its so good, i think i racked up 500GS from that game. But it was long winded, like mastering everyone's skills etc.
I never completed it, got right to the end and then started playing something else, cant remember what....

No not yet. Everytime I have some time to set it up I get distracted by Lost odyssey :(
I will though. But it will be bridged from a wireless connection, that has issues on it's own. So not really that eager to do so atm :D

Warhunt you on Xbox Live yet? Wondered what your Gamertag was
No but I'm looking now.
Never played that, might have to give it a rent!

But it is horrendously fun to do. And the game is not that long. Me and my mate did this as one of first games back in "the day". I got all of the chars up to max etc and completed. And on the last one overwrote the save with the fresh char...... >_<

lol, you can pick up cheap TV's on Ebay or something to keep her occupied (i get my GF on her laptop or give her a book)
I enjoyed Halo Mutliplayer but i was never drawn in like so many by the Campaign, but i guess jumping in at Number 3 is not helpful to be involved in the story!

Halo just arrived but Im at some unix training course today and wont be back until around 6.30 then the wife lady gets in at 8 to put a stop to my gaming. Need to buy a cheap tele so I can throw her into the bedroom and get some quality gaming in.
That sounds fun! Looking forward to the challenge!
I have ODST, started on legendary but it didn't draw me in like Halo did. May run through on a lower level just to get through it. I only keep the game for the Halo 3 multiplayer disc.
Started CSI: Deadly Intent last night. Looks good, but the cursor is way too sensitive and can't find a way of lowering the sensitivity.
Plus my controller's left thumb stick is a bit dodgy, so every so often it won't let me play as it's always selecting a different option!
Still, played for a few minutes last night after mopping the last few realistic achievements on Ghostbusters. 3 achievements and 15 points...a long way to go!
