    Tut tut for Avatar. Wasn't that banned from the last challenge? :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71


    I see someone has played lost too you dirty sneaks :rolleyes:

    My lead is looking shakey with corcaigh closing fast thanks to 1000 on 3 minutes of avatar, tut tut too soon too soon, some of us may still have that particular ace to play yet :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Ah Lost isn't too bad. It's an easy 1000 but not a 5 minute job.

    Would you believe I played just before I entered the challenge, curse my rotten luck


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,024 ✭✭✭Moiph


    I got 1000 in X-Men Origins: Wolverine about a week before the challenge as well. Gutted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    And that is that. Took me right to the wire, dor83!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,522 ✭✭✭dor83


    You were always going to win it because I would have felt like I cheated if I'd won it, playing Avatar should really take 1000 points off me. With a gamerscore as high as yours it can't be easy to find games to play either so you deserved it, well done.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Doesn't matter what games you play. Avatar isn't cheating. It's a valid game. Not your fault it's easy to 1k. Cheating is using game saves etc.

    Ah very true, most of the Avatar stuff was said in jest, my fault too for not using it for a soft 1k when I had it sat there all along :D

    Still wouldn't have got me much closer to the top 2 in the end. Well done all.

    congrats calex71/wanosd :)

    Anyone up for another challenge to finish off the summer? :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Nah, I've defended my summer title for the year, so I'll leave it until next year! If I were to do another challenge, I'd be looking at actually finishing Ben 10 and looking at the likes of Hannah Montana and My Horse and Me 2!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71


    I'm done too, glad I held off on playing games I wanted to spend time on and just used ones I couldn't care less about for the challenge. There were a few I picked up a while ago like Metro 2033 that I purposely put aside not to use in the challenge, that I wanted to take my time with.

    Best game I played for the challenge was Tomb Raider : Underworld well worth the €8 worst was sherlock holmes, Might have been better if i wasn't breezing though it with a guide in hand though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭djkeogh


    Lost was the only game I got specifically because of this and I actually kinda enjoyed it. I didn't waste anytime doing the poxy puzzles in it cause they annoyed me.

    Other than that I pretty much played games I wanted to play rather than ploughing for points, hence barely breaking the 2K barrier. Not having much time for the gaming either made it difficult but I did enjoy taking part.
