GSL Week 1 Is Over

Our team really didn't perform as good as we should have done and you can see by our 10th position. In reality we didn't do bad, it's just every other team ahead of us did really well. Crazy to see KOTOR with 40,000+ and sucks to see Hand of Thrawn 10k ahead of my team. We have our work cut out to catch up, that's for sure.

I'm being sent Jericho which is supposed to be an easy thousand gamerscore. Got to hope and pray I am able to get gamerscore from Call of Juarez and replaced EURO 2008 as my captain wants at least 3,000 from each member this week. That's 900 more than I got last week! *gulps*.

Penalty/Free Kick Mayhem

So I didn't play Xbox in the morning and was good enough to do work instead. This meant I had a couple of hours to game tonight and I did. My aim was to finish off my Captain Your Country career with Baros and the Czechs which I did. I also tried to get the Penalty achievement in the Quarter Final but nerves got to me (they really did) and I didn't put enough power in my shot so the keeper saved! I re-tried in the Semi's (my team still won, as they did in the semi's!) and scored this time, netting the achievement.

Not got the Free Kick one yet and have had 5 attemps with just 1 being on target and a comfortable save for the keeper. I just learnt that LB helps power the shot more so I will try that tactic out better tomorrow as well as trying to increase Baros's free kick ability.

All this is in EURO 2008 by the way, didn't play anything else tonight.

Frustration, Arrrgggghhhh

So ShopTo decided today that they was going to drop the price of Skate 2 to £27. Why couldn't they have done this yesterday!!!!!! I would have saved myself £7 as I wouldn't have got the £33 trade in price and then spend £7 to get it on £40, instead would have got £27 cash back and then bought online for £27 without losing a penny (actually I would have lost 1p :P)

Other news I've played skate 2 online getting some more exp in games of skate and started my Captain Your Country career with Baros for the Czechs on EURO 2008. Will relax on some skate 2 again now and try calm down over losing £7 today. :(

Got Skate 2 on 360

Went into College with the game and went into Gamestation where they offered me £25 trade in. After the guy said "if you can find it cheaper anywhere else we will do a quid better than it" so I said CeX would give me £32 trade in. I was told to come back with a receipt or printout from the website for proof so I went to lesson, went on the website and printed it off. Went back and they gave me £33 for my skate 2 on PS3 :D. I spent £7 and got it on 360 and played it a little bit last night.

I also played EURO 2008 getting a few achievements. I'm pretty bad at football games these days but I will still try my best to get as many of the achievements as possible.
