I'm blogging from the Excom training centre in Brisbane where I am learning how to use MS Project to make pretty diagrams to distract my boss while the company goes to hell.

Not much opportunity to play games here, World of Warcraft doesn't seem to be installed on the training machines for some reason.

Career mode is finally done in Forza 2, it was great to see that 150 GamerScore drop as M.Rossi crossed the finish line of the final endurance race. That takes me past 13,000 in total. I wish PS3 games had achievements, for some reason playing games as their own reward just doesn't seem quite enough any more. Hopefully the trophy room in 'Home' will go some way to incentivise completism. Perhapsthe industryshould adopt an unofficial standard and aim to include 'reward points' as part of every title, I guess that's always been the casefor collection games. Perhaps that's why I found theshines in Super Mario Sunshine so compelling. It would be great to show offthe madskillz to my buddies though, that's the real advantage of Live.
