Have you ever played a game that you really hated, but ended up with an achievment so you couldn't remove it from your list? Or just wanted to earn them all again?

Well cast you votes now on whether Microsoft should add this feature.

Currently all we can do is remove anygame that has 0g points earned, so it can't be that hard to incorporate the new feature.

Microsoft's main argument would most likley be that people would either accidentally delete their scores, or claim too in hope of free points. But i've found the solution. Aslong as your not connected to XBox Live when you delete them the process is completley reversable with the Recover Gamertag feature we already have. This is if they just didn't want to add a failsafe reverse decision option.

The above idea would most likeley work for the moment as away to remove any game you wanted, but only if you follow these steps.

Connect to XBox live before you play, to make shore your profile is saved. Disconnect and start playing. If you don't like it you can just delete your profile, and then recover the Gamertag from XBox live with the game gone. I havn't tested this yet though.

Or create a temporary profile to test new games on.

Please vote and add your comments. Together we can annoy Microsoft for a bit atleast.

To do this just go to http://live.xbox.com and log in, click on your gametag name at the top of the page and then select "Privacy Settings" and it's the third option down.

And yes this would be good as I have a few games that I dont want on my profile anymore.

Yeah, I think you should be able to. It's good you can delete 0 point games from your playing list, but I would like to delete some others too, that I got like 1 achievement in. It's not a big deal, right enough, but I would still like to be able to do it.

I don't know why people use it, unless they have some sort of online stalker following them.

I don't mind having 'embarrassing' games there, I just hate having games with so few points from it. I don't even care that much about completion percentage, I'm just anal about having like 10 points from a game.

Well those are certainly more better titles than having Cars, Avatar, or Bee Movie... Unless you have kids at home. But lets face it, a lot of acheivement collectors play these games just for the points.

lol. Makes me imagine all those parents that go through their offspring's myspace and facebook profiles. And now their searching our 360 achievements. Whats the world coming too. But on that note, I'd like to get rid of a few too myself. Like the game I played only once, got one achievement and never played again.

I only like to buy and not rent games so there are some games that I have which I would like to sell because I will never play them again, but I do not like to sell games if I already have like 1 or 2 achievements. I have a few games that are just like that with only 1 or 2 achievements.

So yes we should be able to delete any game/achievments that we want.

thats what i'm talking about, I have like 5g for Rainbow Six Vegas but was put off the game after not being able finish one section with a friend after like 15 attempts, may just have to play it and see what I can get... I like to try and get at least 12 achievments on games so it fills up what you see on the dashboard. Thats why I hate having only one.

It sure would not hurt the system but it would have to be very secure. what i mean is you would not want to be looking at your gamerscore click on a game and accidently drop the controller which happens to land on the button that deletes it all and then all your precious achievements are gone. They should have it so when you click on it it asks you to enter a password that you set or it makes sure you ment to do it or something along those lines. I know I would like to knock GH3 and Forza 2 off my list. I just did not like Forza and a friend brought GH3 over for a day w/ a guitar and I only got 65 points.

Most the people with the setting enabled to block their achievements and games played usually cheat for gamerscore or play downloaded games early.

you can already do that, aslong as theirs no achievments, but you may need the latest xbox live update

It sure would not hurt the system but it would have to be very secure. what i mean is you would not want to be looking at your gamerscore click on a game and accidently drop the controller which happens to land on the button that deletes it all and then all your precious achievements are gone.

It's a good idea. There are probably a handful of games I have that I got a few achievements for and then got rid of like Kameo, Madden 07, Sneak King, etc. It would be nice for the anal people like myself who lets meaningless stuff like this bother me.

It would be nice, there's a couple games that a friend popped in for 10 min and got a single achievement for. I'll never play the game again, and all that achievement is doing is bringing down my completest rank.

I bet if there was an "I don't care" option there would be a lot less no votes. Anyway, I have a completion percentage of over 75% and it really bothers me that my brother got 50 points for GH2. I just rented MoH Airborne because someone got 15 points on my profile and it was really bothering me. I also want to get rid of DOA4 because that game pissed me off and I only got like 370 points.

There's n reason not to add this feature. They can make it so you can only delete one achievement at a time, and give warning that your points will be gone forever with no way to get them back (besides playing the game and unlocking them). This would prevent most accidents. Or they could only let you delete them from xbox.com so you have to sign in first, so your friend or little brother doesn't delete all your points.

that's a great idea. I'd actually like to decrease my gamerscore, I feel like a loser, because it's at 12k right now. Plus I have a bunch of old arcade games I bought in 2007 with like 1 achievement in, it's pointless to even show them. Excellent idea.

I think they should allow this. It might result in people deleting full 1000's in order to play a game again and get all the achievements again. It should be the players prerogative. The player put the game on his or her profile, but often you get that first achievement (or first few) before you have a feel for the game. If you want to delete a game, and the associated gamerscore, I think you should be allowed to do so.

I don't really see the issue here. So what if you have one achievment from a game you hated but I guess since it's your Xbox you should be allowed too.

I would like this feature, for the fact that there are a fair few games on my list that I don't even own anymore, either because I traded them in or sold them to someone else. I'd just rather have my profile more accurately represent what I own.
