Yeah, I'm playing for fun. The completionist in me will make sure I finish everything but I'll enjoy finishing the games. I have a couple of back up games if I feel that I'm not going to make the deadline but there is a lot of game playing before then.

I started it just for completion and for the chance to get a high score. The more 1000GS games I get the better. I like getting the most I can.

You are probably right with that. They aren't point givers. But then again, play for fun. I'm renting games to get points - but at the same time to play games I'd probably never play (i.e. Madagascar Kartz...this is literally Mario Kart!). Really good game and having fun.

And gotta love the XBLA games. I love them. And I have a few games still in their wrapper. Must crack them out whilst waiting for games to arrive :p

Don't you worry GP, you're the tortoise in this race, Jason will soon get distracted by a lady rabbit and you'll pass him for the finish line. Just enjoy the race. I've got a tenner on you winning this.

My next few games might not give me points so quickly. It will probably be the first Assassins Creed and maybe the first Saints Row. I tend to have a few racing games on the go at the same time for a change of pace. Still got some play left in Project Gotham 3 and 4 and then onto Race Driver Grid or Sega Rally.

Have you been checking the leaderboard Machie? I've hit 1/10th of my largish target in 10 days. :p
Game ended 6-0. Shame there weren't any more goals. But saying that, I'm relishing listening to the (expletive)heads (which is their actual nickname before people rush on at me) calling into the radio and complaing. Awesome stuff. Johnson to get the sack in the morning!

My moneys on GP winning the 20k challenge. Chris you're falling behind, be extra careful when you get your 360 back, remember the failure rate on the second machine is pretty high too.

Oh yes! Bristol City are losing 6-0 at home! Couldn't get better, unless they concede a 7th!

In the battle between knee and wall, unfortunately for me, wall wins almost every time. So I'm in sufficient amounts of pain right now, at least I have tomorrow to rest.
Hope everyone elses day is going well :)

I re-tweeted the 20k challenge to see if it reaches more people.
I'm sure it will be fine WH. May ping you an e-mail soon - I'm interested in helping.
Not sure what to post as my facebook status. Do I go with the 20k challenge idea and get as many people involved as possible, or do I do a gloating one that my local rivals are losing 3-0 at home to our welsh rivals Cardiff. And it's not half time. And they were knocked out of the FA Cup by the same side last week. Choices...choices....
Decided...leave the football one for the office tomorrow. Love being the only Rovers supporter!
Where is this 8-0 win spurs were meant to have according to someones dream last night then?
EDIT: Whoop! Can post a link and a status update!
And just in time - 4-0 at half time with the fourth being an OG!
