I think that they can be downloadable content achievements, which GOW2 is.

I understand what you mean.. I like to do that as well... I don't know why they do it, but I do think if the add new achievements.. they should ALWAYS be worth something.. I mean what the heck is the point.. go through all that progress and then the achievement is worth NOHTHING. that is why elder scrolls 4 is my all time favorite game.. EVERY achievement is worth something.. and well balanced and not all lazy like dead rising all the achievements are all different amounts.. I have 1000 points for a few games...

But I never heard the thing about not being able to put new achievements up only if they are not worth anything

NOWHERE did they EVER state that they wouldnt add achievement if they had a "point" value... everything they state is (usualy) like this: "Full game titles have 1000 gamer score(gs), with more being added by DLC. Usually up to (and sometimes more) than 1250gs total. Arcade titles are 200gs, with more points being added by DLC. THIS IS HANDLED ON A GAME BY GAME BASIS." I think it was Lord of the rings Battle for Middle earth had only, like 705gs, or something.. so chill. Halo 3 is at 1750gs i believe now. and seriously man, you better watch your language on here, youll get moderated. And given how you talk to people, you should stop calling them "kids" because you sound more like one yourself, what with the "achievement temper tantrum" and all.. peace

really? because he didnt say ANYTHING remotely to that effect exactly what part of "who cares" or "get out more" can be interpreted as "why are u ACTUALLY ANGRY ABOUT ACHIEVEMENTs" you know what "who cares" and "get out more" means to me? it means "who cares" and "get out more" if thats what he meant than he should have said that instead of insulting people and then saying he wasnt

I'm with you man. I noticed that it it made me so angry I just lost it and thew my Xbox against the wall as hard as I could. It put the big hold in the wall and broke part of the window next to it. It made such a loud sound that my neighbor called the police and my landlord evicted me.

So now I'm thinking about suing Gears 2. I mean just like you said, how can they do tha crap?? Its there fault!

I havent read all replies so sorry if this has been said before. But basically for every game it is compulsory for there to be 1000 gamerscore available with no added DLC needed, if games come out with under 1000 then any extra DLC that contains achievements must be free till the 1000 is reached (godfather was an example of this). Typically Games are only allowed up to 50 achievements totalling 1000 and then they are allowed to add 10 more achievements to total 1250. There has been exceptions though, The Orange box came with a total of 99 achievements, microsoft have near enough stopped caring about this rule. the only other exception is Halo 3, where it has a total score of 1750. Why microsoft let bungie do this, i dont know, probably because halo is 360's biggest game.

My big(ger) gripe with DLC achievements is when the ones that have additional gamerscore involved are also tied to pay-for DLC content. Even worse when it's something that you're REQUIRED TO OWN in order to play a game online or something. that just really makes my blood boil.

um well you have two options: 1. keep your games 2. don't worry about the silly point totals. just consider your 1000pts to be complete. I don't think anyone bought the crackdown DLC, and now everyone who has that game has some crappy total out of 1250 so everyone has to deal with it just don't sweat the meaningless numbers
