TGC: Done!

Okay, I couldn't help myself. I was at Best Buy yesterday and was magnetically drawn to the game guides. I did something I've never done before: looked up information in a game guide at the store without buying the guide.

I know, there's a special place in Taiwan for people like me.

So, armed with that information, I went home and finished off the last achievement in The Golden Compass.

I'm done. Fini. No more!

On to bigger and better things: I'll be working off the remaining achievements in Call of Duty 4 tonight if I can. I know, it sounds like I'm playing for Gamerscore now, but I'm really not. When achievements are done correctly, IMO, they encourage you to play games in ways you wouldn't have before. CoD4's achievements, for the most part, encourage that behavior. So, tonight is for fun, not Gamerscore.

Speaking of Gamerscore... I passed the 50,000 points mark yesterday, thanks to the final achievement in The Golden Compass. And I'm having a party: "CJ's 50K Bash"

You are all invited. If you are in the Nashville, TN area on December 21, 2007, shoot me an email and you can come by for the fun in person. Otherwise, boot up your Xbox 360, throw in Call of Duty 4, and join in the virtual party. We'll be going from 6PM CST to 1AM. Woo-hoo!
