Are you obsessed with achievements?

2 myself.I only have a little over 4k out of 16k I could have total from the games I own. I have just recently started actually attempting to get them purposely. It does seem to add more gameplay to games I had forgotten about. I also just realized I didn't get any for beating Quake or Saints row because of cheats, I am now playing through them again to get the achievements.

I'll probably never make it to 10k, unless it's years from now. I just don't have time to game that often.

YES! I play my games until I have 1000/1000, 1250/1250 or 200/200I had 12k on my other account but they didn't feel like achievements as I used King Kong and games like that for easy achievements. So now I started new, got Bomberman LIVE, Shadowrun and Marvel Ultimate Alliance, and I am not going to stop playing them until I have all achievements and I am going to do as many as I can legitemately and only boost ifI feel like I need to.

Achievements do give replayvalue which is why I love them, I wouldn't do half the stuff I do without the achievements.

Hardcore!

:D

Yup i am addicted to achievements. Every game I get I do every thing in my power to get every single achievement for every game I buy.

I like getting acheivements... but if a game is awful, like Marvel Ultimate alliance, i dont even try to get them.

ive started renting games more often than i buy them, that way if they are good i can play them for a while, collect all the acheivements, and then take it back. But if they suck, i take them back to Blockbuster immediatly

THe achievements help to filter out the loosers and the people with lives. I when Hapo 3 comes out they should have the online seprate people unders 2000 points and put them in game rooms so they can play casual and have fun. I hve a had xbox 360 since laucnh and all I have is a little over 1000 points. NismoNissan41

Um, that's what gamer zones are for.

The only time I've ever been obsessed with achievements is Dead Rising. Everything else, I just get what I've done.

Yes, I would consider myself to be "obsessed". Before I get a game I check to see if the achievements are hard, and I play the game until I get all of the achievements.

I used to go out of my way to rent crappy games just to get easy achievements, but I don't do that anymore.

Well that's pretty harsh.

as long as i have at least half of the available achievements im good.

i just dont like to see stuff like 395/1000. idk why it just makes me feel weird..

Yes, I am obsessed with achievements. I mean i played 4-6 hours a day of gears for about 6 months for my seriously achievement and all the others, after that I swore never to pick the game up again. Then the new achievements came out and i couldn't help myself spent about 2 weeks getting them i admit i had to set up the inconceivable achievement but i wanted them all so bad. Yes, I am obsessed so obsessed it caused me to cheat for an achievement.

i see why people like them but i really dont care for them. i know people who pay for MS points and rent games just to get achievments on the games which is overdoing it a bit imo. a friend of mine bought tetris for $30 dollars for an easy 1k ponts. he hasnt played it since he got the points which took roughly 9 hours. i dont buy any game that doesnt have replay value which doesnt take much for me. heck i replay splinter cell over and over again just because i love pulling people off ledges and through ice :P.

just my 2...or 8 or some odd amount of cents :)

It's hard to get half, though.

I like them because sometimes they give me that extra motivation to finish a game, and it provides proof that I have done certain things when I talk to my friends.cecx

I voted the second option. While I'm not obsessed with achievement points, I find they give me more incentive to go back and play games that I would otherwise set aside and forget. Often times, those are games that I enjoyed quite a bit, and would like to play through again, but just never got around to it.

I've also been finding that with the achievement points, there are a few games, subpar or otherwise not that appealing to me, that I'll stick with a bit just to see what I can unlock.

To be honest, they're also enough of an incentive for me to get a game on the 360 rather than some other system. It's fun to unlock a lot of them, and I always get some satisfaction out of seeing the unlocked message. Especially when it was for something that seems more or less random that occurs over the course of playing the game.

I like the achievement points, I don't care who sees the points but when I get a good achievement I get off the coach and yell "BOOM BABY" or "Hell YEAH! Thats right". My wife just shakes her head. Yeah, I'm pretty lame.

I think it does add some replay value to games, gives you a nice goal to work towards--I don't cheat on them though--who the heck cares what my score it anyway?

Do you even play any games on it?

YES! I play my games until I have 1000/1000, 1250/1250 or 200/200I had 12k on my other account but they didn't feel like achievements as I used King Kong and games like that for easy achievements.
