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...

In the last few months (mostly after getting my new 360):
40 points on GOW2
35 for Split/Second
40 for Transformers
25 for Trials HD
120 for Crackdown 2
15 on MW2
So I reckon that's 275 more. Now at 2,650 Not much, but it's a start!

I'm up to 245 points on Split Second.

Totals -
Resident Evil 5 - 135
Split/Second - 270
UFC 2010 - 515
P.S Does anyone know any games that offer an achievement worth 3 points or 8? My OCD is complaining that I have a stupid 7 points stuck on the end of my gamerscore.

Congrats on the 20000!
I've got an additional 70 on Dawn of War II to add.

Well done GrandPrix.
I've got 10 more points for Split Second.
594 points to go but I've not really taken to Split Second so I doubt I'll be doing much more with that.

And it is all over. Many months of hard work and fun and I have reached 20,000 points.
I decided to play Monkey Island 2 and I got all 12 achievements for 200 points. I also got the last achievement not so long ago for SWOS to complete that game and that netted me 25 points.
8300 points in 7-8 months and 13 completed games. I even stopped for the majority of the World Cup. :D

35 more points on SWOS. Just need an online achievement for that to finish the game.
Finally got around to finishing Streets of Rage 2. 25 points from that. I also spent some time with Sensible World of Soccer and got 50 points.
