Do you like the achievement system? Would you like to see it next gen or not?

I hate seeing my games having like 27/50 achievements it makes me feel that I havn't even finished the game but most of the time for me it just feels like a chore, the most boring achievements I ever tried to hunt down was for Deus Ex: Human Revolution, it needs a couple of extra playthroughs to get a full 1000/1000, although a great game, Deus Ex dor me doesn't really have that much replay value mainly because it doesn't have new game+ so I have to go through all the hard work again just to get a 1000/1000 and another example is for Final Fantasy 13 the Treasure Hunter achievement which is really boring to do 'cause of the hours upon hours of grinding needed . . .

Do you like the achievement system? Or you don't really care about them? Do you want to see it implemented in the next gen of consoles . . .

Achievements are fun for those who enjoy them, I don't care about them at all but sometimes I'll admit I try to get some of the more challenging ones.

The system should still be in place unchanged mostly for the next console

It's a decent system imo. I dont care to collect all of them, but like the sound of unlocking one. It happens naturally.

I like it, and I'd like it even more if you'd earn MS points with every certain amount of achievment points.

I don't care if its in the games... I never bother with it though, I finish a game then I never play the game again. Who am I gonna call over to show my achievements to? Call my neighbour over and show him I shot some random 15yr old in Call of duty 20 times in the head? good god.

its hardly what i call an achievement, its more a failure at real life to even think you achieved something in a game.

It's a nice indication of what you've done in a game, especially for ones that require a bit of skill or luck to pull off.

Achievements that require you to collect 100 pointless items scattered around the game world or kill 50,000 enemies for no reason should be avoided because I literally cannot think of a greater waste of time.

Achievements are great when they're handled right and designed well.

I don't mind the Achievements. I admit I will go after a few (because I'll find them fun and challenging) but when it comes to achievements being unlocked through Multiplayer, I pretty much don't even bother with those. And I have to agree with that person about unlocking an achievement by looking at the menu, some are useless and blah!

I will be quite p***ed if they don't transfer over gamertags + gamerscore. Achievements are one of the best things about this gen.

I would like to see the achievement system in the 8th generation. I am indifferent to getting them.

i think they should use the achievement points to buy in game stuff, it will make customers buy more games

Achievements are really completely pointless but for some reason I feel like I have to try to get them. While I've never gotten all of them on any game they are still something fun to work at now and then and they gives me a reason to go back and replay some games. So yeah I hope that they have the achievement system on the next gen and that they let me carry over all my old achievements from the 360.

I've always been neutral with achievements. It's nice sometimes seeing what I've done with a game. But beyond that, I couldn't really care about them. And even though they don't do much, they've even started adding 360-style achievements in PC games. So yeah, they aren't going anywhere for the next set of consoles.

I like getting achievements most the time. I would like to see it in the next xbox. I would be really happy if my achievements carried over from 360.

1. I'm basically guranteeing microsoft will have achievements.

OP, I get what you are saying, thats why I cannot own a PS3. see on the xbox i can be somewhat ok not getting 1k in a game because i still got a percentage. if i don't plat a game on the ps3 i felt like my score was dragged down.

on a side note, i will try to really only get the story ones in games im meh about, games i really like, batman AA/AC and the assassins creed series for example i'll try to get most of their achievements just because I enjoy the game itself and want to maximize its playing time.
