Go, go, go!

Ordinarily I'd get stressed out if you told me to go, go, go! But when I'm sat in a rocket-propelled boat, it's a whole other story. I've been swooshing around on Hydro Thunder Hurricane at every opportunity for the last coupe of days... exploring weird and wonderful tracks, oohing and ahhing over brightly-coloured boats etc.

And I've been happily collecting achievements. Well, I was until I realised what one of them involved:

Humans Gooood - Play a 4 way local Multiplayer race in which all the humans beat all the AI.

Seriously? Who's going to be able to get this? Not only do I have to get three people to come over to my house, they have to bring a controller with them AND be good at racing games. Possibly THE most annoying achievment I've ever come across. It almost makes me want to switch my Hydro Thunder Avatar t-shirt to something else. But then I remember the level with the giant Viking, and the epic jumps over canal boats... Hydro Thunder Avatar t-shirt stays.

1GOAL - 1 very cool avatar t-shirt

The World Cup may be almost over, and England may have done even worse than usual, but one thing I've enjoyed over the last few weeks, is wearing my 1GOAL t-shirt.

I often struggle to know what to dress my avatar in (I'd been wearing the pink Depeche Mode, Gnome Chomski t-shirt for approximately 6 months), so when I found out there was a t-shirt I could download that could also help children worldwide get access to education, I was over the moon.

Every download of the t-shirt counts as a signature on 1GOAL's petition, urging world leaders to provide education for 72 million children who are denied the chance to go to school. This weekend is your last chance to download the t-shirt, oh, and did I mention it's FREE -
