First 10,000 Points/Lost Odyssey - Day 4

Well, I finally got 10,000 total Gamerscore. Technically, I overshot it by 96, since a disc complete in Lost Odyssey is 125 GS. But, that is beside the point.

I had been shooting for 10,000 for a while now (especially when I saw how easy it was to get 1000 in Oblivion.) Mainly the games that helped me get to it were:
  • Oblivion (all 1250, especially after the expansion)
  • Rainbow Six: Vegas (1 & 2)
  • Splinter Cell: Double Agent
  • The Darkness
  • Marvel Ultimate Alliance
  • Mass Effect
  • and finally, Lost Odyssey
All helped immensely in achieving my stupid goal of getting to 10,000 GS, but I am happy for it. And now, I will try to get to 20,000

But now, to the other part of this post: Lost Odyssey. I finally got through disc 2 tonight, and am really liking the story so far. Dreams are still coming in like bad Powerpoint presentations, but I can't really complain.

Since I stopped milling SP, it's not as tedious to play. Definately more enjoyable than waiting for one or two certain Silver Keolons to show up, and running from a bunch of battles until I get one with them. But, at least I am finding plenty of accessories to make it better, and more interesting. Nothing better than picking up a bracelet that opens up 3 more skill slots.

It's good to see the memories unlocking for the characters. And...to see Jansen look and act like an ass. Nothing better to see a painted up man lusting for a woman...really makes you think...
