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

Lets see how we get on...

HM - 20,000 point increase

Last 2 are going to be a nightmare - 20 Destruction kills online, and knife 5 friends online. Looks like I'll be calling in a favour :P

In other news upto 195 on Resident Evil 5.

It would be a bit of a hard push joining in at this late stage.

I know I have over 1000 to add to my total, but the breakdown I'm still uncertain of. With Split/Second, Alan Wake and Monsters vs Aliens, there are a fair few points to go up. I may not be too short at the end after all!

My current Gamerscore is just under 11000 and I've been building that up since January, so 20000 for september? I don't think so.

895 Points from Prison Break. Won't be etting the remaining points as they are for going through the game undetected and it really isn't worth the hassle.

Hey everyone!!

Glad to see people are doing well in the challenge, i have complete my Ps3 one and i am on about 22,400 on the Xbox, so i need like 600 points, but not sure if i will get it done, been playing Magna Carta and we all know RPG's are not the best for getting achievements!

I will update my details asap

Total for Split Second is 450 Points.

Got Prison Break through today and it seems like it should be easy for the achievements. Still don't think I've got a chance to get another 10,000 points before September though.

Well done dav2612. A few of us have managed to complete what we set out to do. Still some time left as well.

I decided to celebrate reaching my target by boosting my score last week playing the Megadrive Ultimate Collection. It's a pretty easy 1000 points. :)
