As we approach December, the achievement challenge is as good as mine. Nateeasy pretty much accepted defeat in the comments of last weeks article, and now it’s just a case of stepping up the game, and beating him into a bloody pulp.
Let’s start that the beating, with this weeks challenge.
Ice Age 3: I have to say – this is a REALLY awesome game. It’s a very fun platformer, with easy collectables, and a bunch of challenge levels in addition to it. Highly recommended – really. I beat the game and got all collectibles for 750 gamerscore points. I just have to do all the challenge levels now, for the full 1K.
Lego Indiana Jones 2: Not really played this much tbh. Created a customised character and that is it. Pretty underwhelming game in all honesty.
TNA Impact: I rented this in September 2008 and got one achievement and hated the game so much I returned it immediately haha. Decided to go back to it now before Blockbuster pull it from the shelves – not too shabby, in all honesty. It’s bad, but not as bad as I thought it would be. Been working on story mode and on Chapter 4 right now – got 115 points total in that.
Prince of Persia: Got this game from the library, and sadly the DVD is in bad fucking shape. Kept freezing on me, even after installing to hard drive. I got about 10 minutes into the game and 70 gamerscore points before having to quit due to the freezing. Will hopefully pick it up again as it seemed fun.
The Godfather II: Wrapped this one up this week, and got all 1000 gamerscore points needed. Fun game, but gets a bit tedious.
Alright, let’s see this weeks stats:
nateeasy: 62995
Scotsman: 61996
Hell yeah. I’ve managed to cut down nateeasys lead to just 999 gamerscore points. Let’s start the celebration a week early – here’s a chart showing our difference in gamerscore points from when the challenge begun:

Get the “celebration” animated gifs ready – next week Scotsman completes the challenge. Bitches.


I hope nate is just pulling wool over your eyes and just manhandles some serious gaming this week.
This is epic.
In my personal challenge I set months ago, I wanted to get to 20000 before 2010. I'm a month away with 700 points to go. I've slowed down a lot lately, with no new games played for a while. I have TBOGT and Prototype to get me going for now, but I don't see a lot of points coming from those. Probably gonna send back Prototype to Gamefly soon for something I can get points easier.
iMPACT! isn't too bad for achievement points, I got 75Mousehole renting it one long weekend. There's 20 pts for making a unitard with flames on it (for some reason the all-flame achievement doesn't unlock if you use different flamed pieces of clothing) and 35 for being Christian w/ Samoa Joe among other easy things.
Like I would ever play that hunk of crap gtfo.
