I keep telling myself it's only 2 weeks at the most, hopefully less. I'll just have to crack no with games like Assassin's Creed and The Orange Box which I can play happily offline. Maybe try to get a huge gamerscore increase to catch Jen up when I come back online

The Orange box was great for me while I was offline. No TF2 but plenty more to be going on with

Good luck with that

Actually now I've hit 40k, my motivation's waned a bit to reach the next big target. 50k seems so distant

My motivation waned about 2 months ago, which is why you're so far ahead now. I've had CSI (a very easy 1k) here from Swapgame for about a month now and it's still unopened :/

I need to find a blockbuster to rent that from. Not so much for the 1k, I've always played the CSI games, they're just not worth the cost they are for what is in the end a very short gaming experience.

CSI can be really quick to complete but I quite enjoyed it Did it across one Saturday a while back.
I reckon I'm going to tackle some games with military precision to ensure I get the points easily, I think it's the only way really at the moment.

AC is good but hasn't quite hooked me yet.
Did I derail the thread at all?

Not sure if I have a crossover cable around the house either :/
Hmmm, just did a speed test on the laptop, and I now seem to be getting just over 3MB speeds, possibly because I moved the router as far as it would go next door. Is it wrong that I now feel really tempted to go and buy the wireless adapter on Saturday?

Yes because they are stupidly expensive go get a wireless access point for half the price then you've got yourself internet for the 360 and any other machine that needs it plus a game for the same price of the wireless adapter

What time tonight peeps?
