Its really out of date now seeing as I sold my Xbox 360 about 2 or 3 months ago, but yeah suffice to say I’ve given this goal up :D

For me the Gamerscore thing was really cool until I realised that in the real world, I was the only person in my circle of friends with an Xbox 360. Basically its a chance for bragging rights, and in all honesty whats the point doing it if you’ve nobody to brag to?

For the last year or so, I’ve been selling loads of my old games on eBay. I’ve almost got a feedback rating of 100, and I sell a lot more on eBay than I buy.

On this PC I can see 69 photos of games I’ve sold and I know there have been more than just those ones. Getting rid of games is a refreshing thing to do, and I’ve only regretted selling small minority of them.

But my work is never done; I’ve still got more games to get rid of.

I got a brilliant game design book from my brother for Xmas. Usually I get hampered down by technical jargon but this one is just effortless to read through and pick up points about game design. I’m currently reading through that now, so thats helping me with achieving this rather long term goal.

Also in a few weeks time I’ve got an open day at University where I’ll be shown round campus and have an informal interview for a ‘computer games design and programming’ degree (BSc). Hopefully I’ll get accepted into the University and will have a job working in the games industry in the future!
