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

60 points more on Sega Rally for me. Got a really annoying achievement out of the way on that too. It should be plain sailing to most of the points now.

Well, I think it's a fairly rare glitch, so you'll probably be alright. I just don't have the patience to get it back out, uninstall and risk it again.

Oh dear...sounds like I've been landed with 2 duds!

Don't worry about lacking a full kids game list - I have loads like that!

Ugh, G-Force. Encountered a game-breaking glitch when I had that out on rental, somewhere near the end it's possible for a cutscene not to trigger and render the saves for that game useless. I'm not sure but I don't think it's a PS3-exclusive issue. Has me looking like I couldn't complete a kid's game on my trophy list, which is a bit irritating.

My next two? G-Force and Millenium Series Painball 2009

(I am aware of the missing "t" in the word above...pain sounds like it may be the main word...)
