i'm on a measley 5000. i don't play games often enough to compete with some of the other gamerscores people have.
Well, if you're completely new a couple thousand is fine. Gamerscore is a completely pointless number anyway except for bragging rights with friends. 10,000 seems to be a good number that separates a lot of people and seems "respectable" in my opinion. That is, unless you played Avatar, because if you do there is no chance of ever being respectable.
Errrrg so close, have like 4900.. must keep going ...must increase my e-peen. Good thing I don't care too much about that, if I did I have stack a of games I could finish. Achievements only give me motivation if I like the game enough to keep playing, and they add replay value without being annoying to get.at lest over 5000 but im really not into gamerscore i just care about having fun.

It depends how long you have had a 360 but for people that got it around launch I would say about 50k. Unless they rarely play it even without trying they should be over 50k.
i would say that depends on how many games uve played. if u have 100 played games and a 10k gamerscore. thats uber lame. ill say a decent gamerscore should be at least 50% of the total points of all ur played games.. like if u have 10 played games. a decent gamerscore should be 5000g
I'm sure everyone thinks differently when it comes to having decent gamerscore, so really it's all just in your opinion what a decent gamerscore would be.
LOL, comment of the day right here! ignorance wins againGamerscore just shows how much time you devote togames. Above 25,000 or so and you're closing in on agoraphobia.

so you offend half the people on this site and then you think saying 'in my opinion' will cover you? double ignorance win!It was a slight exaggeration, but the premise is right. If your gamerscore is getting that high, you probably play a little too much(in my opinion, of course).

I dont think 'half' the people on this site have gamerscores of 25,000 or more. And if they do, and they're offended then oh well. I'm not going to take back what I honestly think.
And saying 'in my opinion' is only my way of covering in-case somebody wanted to get into a war of what is or isn't too long. Too many people assume that without those words, you are trying to impose 'truths' on them or something. Basically, I'm trying to save time of going through the pointless parts of an argument.
But please, explain to me whats ignorant about my comments. You keep saying it, but you've done absolutely nothing to show it.

on a gaming forum, you called all people with over 25,000 gamerscore 'agoraphobic,' what isnt ignorant about that? first of all your saying this ON A GAMING FORUM. Secondly your generalising a large population based on an irrelevant number. Thirdly, your not taking into considertion how long they have actually had their console. Fourth; 25,000 gamerscore is not a lot considering over 150,000 people have reached that milestone. Finally; you decided to label those 150,000+ persons as agoraphobic, having absolutely no clue who they are. show enough ignorance for you?i think most people don't even care... so it's kind of difficult to determine if a score is decent or not.

I have to go with this.
Or maybe they have had the XBox since launch date or near launch date? What about us players who strive to get 1000/1000 on each game? A game doesn't feel complete unless it's 1000/1000.Gamerscore just shows how much time you devote togames. Above 25,000 or so and you're closing in on agoraphobia.

Ok, well I've already addressed the fact that my 'agoraphobic' comment was a purposeful exaggeration. You will continue to use it, I know, because its your best(and only) weapon, but do try and get on with the conversation instead of dwelling on already explained comments, will ya?
Anyways, it doesn't matter that 150,000 people have reached that same 'milestone', because itsquite likelythat there's at least 150,000 people out there who play video games a littletoo much, wouldn't you say?
And how is the fact that this is a gaming forum any kind of evidence of ignorance? Thats a strange one.

I see you have SIXTY EIGHT games with a completion percentage of 72%. I dont think the Xbox360 has been out long enough to make that kind of statistic reasonable. Sounds like you play video games a little too much, if you ask me.
I mean, I think that I play games too much as it is. Not that my gamerscore reflects it(since I dont go for acheivements), but I do put in quite a bit of playing, and I certainly wouldn't ever come close to your guy's score even if I did go for acheivements.
Looks like you "took back what you honestly thought".:P That was an interesting struggle to watch but in the end they made you surrender. You should know by now your opinion < gamespot users who will argue until you cave in.Really, I probably shouldn't be saying to people that I think they're playing games too much, I can admit that. Its none of my business. Perhaps I'm just jealous that I CANT play video games as much as you guys do.
Is that fair enough?
seankane
I didn't 'take back' anything. I still stand by my position that gamers with scores over 25,000 probably play games a little too much.
All I'm conceding is that its probably a bit much to go and preach to people how they should be spending their time, which was never my intent, but which I was cornered into doing.
i have had my 360 for 7 and a half months......... and i only have 2,000 gamerscore.
i dont really aim to get achivments so when i get them it is like a surprirse
