Mashing buttons since 1984
Sure, it only took me two measly years to get here, but I finally hit 10,000 Gamerscore today. I hit 5,000 exactly two years ago. What a coincidence!
I am especially proud of this milestone, since the achievement that put me over the edge was the “Big Cheese of the South Seas” achievement from Hexic HD. Not exactly the easiest one for me to get. You might say it was a real achievement.
Here’s to hoping it doesn’t take me another two years to hit 20k!

My name is Dark Reyule, and I am an achievement addict. I’m not sure when it happened… well, OK I know exactly when it happened. According to chart on my 360voice.com blog it started around 2/20/07, around the time Xbox had their first little boost your gamerscore contest for crappy prizes. My addiction, seemingly dormant before, came out in full force then and has manifested itself into something I cannot control.
I finally broke the one thousand mark on my gamerscore. Last night I finished a mission in Hitman: Blood Money (worth 25 points! For one mission!) and now I have hit a minor milestone. Sure, there may be guys out there with 100k gamerscores (okay, maybe there’s only three of them), but who really wants to play all those games?
