I guess I'm the only one who don't. I don't even bother getting them, all my achievement are accidental, like kill X amount of guys or found some secret cave or simply just beat a level. That's why I played 40+ X360 games and I only have 2000 points.

so let me understand

theres things in a game like pass level 2 with only using a pistol... for 10 points. thats something you wouldnt do normally? but for those 10 points you would?

so once you get those 10 points to add to you 1000 gamertag points for a total of 1010 points... the whole end point is what? to get your points so high someone is impressed and says "wow you got alot of points"?

and what about games like spiderman3 or saints row that has a completion %, (say if those games didnt have achievements) and only a "% completed" would you try to get 100% of the game done if no one would know about it?

is seems like you need to be givin points to have a sence of accomplishment, otherwise you wont try to complete 100% of the game ... which is sad

Well Saint's Row gives you badass unlockables (golden desert eagle, pimp cane shotgun) after completing certain side missions which you need to do to get you % completed up, so yeah i would.

[QUOTE="user_nat"]I think of achivements as extra things to do in a game, kinda like all that side stuff in GTA games.Lazy_Boy88
Achievvements are great since it does give you goals and extra things to do. The problem is the Gamerscore crap. There's tons of people who buy and play crap games just to get their stupid e-cool score up. There's even online services where you spend a lot of money to send your 360 HDD in and people play games on it to get your gamerscore up. That's just f'ing sad.

Yeah that is pretty sad but were talking about being proud of achievements, no boosting your gamerscore.
