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 finished Singularity last night. My points total is 475.
My total gamerscore is now 23541. I've got Bioshock 2 next and that should take me into 24000 but I think I'll fall short of the 25000 target by the 1st Sept.

670 on Splintercell Conviction
190 on Fifa world cup
Almost halfway there! :)

No more games for me today. Managed to get 80 points on Lego Indy so I'm getting ahead of the points per day I need.
Got some points for Transformers and Split Second recently. Not sure how much I've got for each as I don't keep track but there you go!
I'm now at 290 points for Singularity
I decided to go back and play Lego Indy. I had only really done a couple of story levels back when the game came out. Got 105 points from that.
I also played a longer than it should be session of Race Pro online. Note to self - both racers must cross the line for the race to count. Did manage to get what I wanted done and got 145 points.

I'm up to 150 points on Singularity.
Anyway, back to collecting Gamerscore. Helped my brother with some Streets of Rage 2. I got 5 points. Will hopefully be playing Race Pro online tomorrow night.
That is a lot of points.
I'm not sure what the total completion involves off the top of my head but the Big Surf Island DLC gives you some toy cars (once you have earned them) and that gives you access to a couple of achievements.
I don't think they ever have reduced any of the DLC. I'm tempted by the Cops and Robbers but there didn't seem to be many people playing it on the PS3 anytime I've been online.
The island may be costly and you'll have everything completed in a few hours but it is worth it. They have crammed a lot into that little island.

For total completion, I'll have to buy 3 DLC packs totalling 2600 points. That is seriously offputting. I could wait for a sale but who knows when that could be. I don't recall them having one for this. I am tempted by the Big Surf Island, just because it is more of the single player stuff.
