Hi Everyone,

I said I would update my blog when my GamerScore surpassed the 14,000 mark. Well now it has....by quite some margin.

Due to the girlfriend renting a "children's game" and me managing to make some progress on Assassin's Creed and a suprising revisit to XBLA, the milestone has been made and then some.

Current GamerScore stands at: 14,615

Breakdown of points collected:

Assassins Creed - 130 Points
Viva Pinata: Party Animals - 440 Points
Geometry Wars - 20 Points

Basically what has happened is that, I had a session on Assassins Creed today and managed to get a lot of points out of it. The girlfriend rented Viva Pinata: Party Animals from Blockbuster and has been spending alot of time on that (and the achievements are really easy - but don't tell her I said that!!) HaHa.

The BIG SURPRISE tho has got to be......20 Points from Geometry Wars! This was the first game I bought from XBLA like 18 months ago when I first got a 360. I will admit I played a lot of it then, but I thought I peaked from a Top Score & AChievement point of view. Well that wasn't the case. What happened is that, I have been top of the leaderboard for my friends list on this for like forever. Until last week. Turns out my mates girlfriend loves the game and wasn't too impressed to find me dislodging her from the top of the leaderboard when my mate added me to his friends list. So after many hours and muliple attempts, she finally beat my score....THE CHEEK OF IT!! :D

So I had no option than to spend some time on it and beat my previous best and her current best. It didn't quite take me as long as I expected. It took 3 attempts to set a new top score for the leaderboard and as an added bonus....an extra achievement (worth 20 points)!! :D GET IN THERE!!

Well, I'll leave this for now. Till next time!
