I heard there are 5 games included in the CD Half-life 2, H-L2 ep1, H-L2 ep2, Portal and the other one I forgot kinda cel-shaded I can't remember the name.
 
On to the question considering at least Portal, HL2 ep2 and the cel-shaded game are three different games how will the achievements be implemented is it going to have more than 1000 achievements because other than it being a great value(5 games in 1) I'm looking forward to getting the achievements.

 I heard that MS is planning to increase their achievement implementation from 1000 to a higher one is Orange Box included to this list of games with higher achievement scores available in game?

yeah if they all have achievements though that's almost 5k probably 2k for the whole CD 1k for HL ep 2 and then portal and the cel shaded shares the other 1k because there aren't seem a lot of single play for cel shaded game while not a lot of multiplayer posibilities for portal

It will probably be 1000 points since that is what is allowed by MS for one game.  It might be separate games but I am sure you can't make a compilation count as multiple games.

Well look at Arcade unplugged. That was a compilation, and it retained it's separate achievements.

I was hoping for something like that. Around 2,000 points in the games combined would be nice.

It will be 1000 points for the whole thing. It's on a per disc basis with retail games; you can't have 5k gamerscore on one CD.

Why not, they take a lot of old games these days and place them in compilations on one disc.

actually now you can, if MS, the games publisher, and the developer have an agreement yes sir they can, and make each a thousand if they want, and slap just about whatever price they want on it, now that said the other matter at hand is when they up the achievement cap for games MS. stated that it was going from 1000 to 1200or1250 i cant quite rememeber now but it was one of those 2 numbers

I heard there are 5 games included in the CD Half-life 2, H-L2 ep1, H-L2 ep2, Portal and the other one I forgot kinda cel-shaded I can't remember the name.
 
On to the question considering at least Portal, HL2 ep2 and the cel-shaded game are three different games how will the achievements be implemented is it going to have more than 1000 achievements because other than it being a great value(5 games in 1) I'm looking forward to getting the achievements.

 I heard that MS is planning to increase their achievement implementation from 1000 to a higher one is Orange Box included to this list of games with higher achievement scores available in game?

yeah it uses a form of art sort of like cel shading, but it isnt, nice touch though something different looks like a N64 game on serious steriods lol.

meh, I don't see the point in a high gamer score. I just like to see that I get a good percentage of them within the game (which im not even that great at )

It might just be for HL2 and the episodes. Perhaps the total will be less than 1000 if Episode 3 is downloadable. Or, maybe it's 1000 for HL2 and 1000 for Ep1-3?

When you get the "Saint" achievement in Dead Rising, achievements matter.

I'm sure it's only 1k points for the entire disc. I realize it has multiple games, but still. MS has rules that there are 1k points for a retail game. There is the new rule that you can have 250 extra points for downloadable content. So, we'll probably get another 250 points somehow. Maybe they will offer a free map pack for TF2 and throw in 250 points with it.

[QUOTE="paullywog"]my guess: hl2: 1000 hl2:e1:200 hl2:e2:200 portal: 500 team fortress:1000

Why are you people giving team fortress 2 full game points when the game isn't even a game the size of the episodes?!?!

it's just guess anything can happen but yeah he should have taken educated guess because fortress seems like it only fits for a multiplayer game therefore not a lot of achievements so is portal which looks like just a single layer on the other hand

I doubt Portal will have 1k Achievements, the game isn't a full game, it lasts maybe a few hours at most. It'll probably be just 1k achievements for the whole package, I mean that's what happened with Quake 4 that came packaged with Quake 2. It would be a bit too crazy to get 5k achievements from one "game."
