Their needs to be a better way to compare your own scores against your friends. I know that you can compare achievements one friend at a time, and I like that feature for the in depth look at what achievements they have that you don't. What I think needs to be added is a leaderboard within your friends. You choose a title that you have and all the other friends with that title pop up with their gamerscores and you are ranked depending on how much you have in that specific title. When more than one person reaches the 1000 limit (or whatever that game may be) the person who got their first stays on top. I know that it is not much, but I think it would add to the competition a little bit for the people who do care about trying to get higher gamerscores than a few of their friends. What do you think?

I

Edit: whoops :?

Anyways yeah I agree dude the "compare achievements" part of xbox seems like it needs attention, I use it all the time to see how my friends are doing against me but it seems that's the only way, so maybe xbox should expand on it a bit. I'd say it should be something you register for though, because not everyone's competitive

Ya it is one of those things where it is really nice for the people who care and does not hurt the people who don't care one bit.

I was a part of the Live beta program. I really wish I would have thought of that to put in the suggestion forums before they closed.

as a former achievement junkie, this sounds awesome. Only problem is that if they added it, I would probably slip back into spending hours on end trying to get a stubborn 10GS achievement...

I may just be splitting hairs over the wording here, but it doesn't need to be about competition- I've been wondering why you can't compare achievements among all your friends who have a particular game- not to compete, but just to see their achievements and say, "yeah- I could do that."

Ya it doesn't need to be there just for competition, I know. It in all honesty would be a nice renovation overall.
