a random thought occured to me last night as i plodded on with my new BF2 streak, "why dont 360 games give you things other than achievements for doing things?" and i pondered this well through the night. the only games i can remember that gave you something other than achievements for things were Gears of war for completing the Campaign on insane and seriously.. and you got some fancy gamerpics. shadowrun also gave you a secret pic for getting the "catch it " achievement. but game of late dont seem to be giving you anything other than achievements. it would have been nice to get a gamerpic for completing the campaign or getting to prestige mode. but no. all the gamerpics and themes are stuck on XBLM for 120 points each. this just re-inforces my distaste for the people who run XBl. instead of giving us something in game, they make you pay for it. yeah we get achievements, but what are they for? nothing. ive past the 10,000 gamerpoints mark but nothing happens. not even a little email saying "welcome to an exclusive club of 10,000 GP people. keep working" which makes me think why the hell am i still using XBL? online gaming of course but what for? i could easily just get the game on PC or PS3. every game now a days seems to come out on any console thats available (except the Wii of course)...whoops im going off topic. anyway, why dont devs just give us something for getting a certain achievement like the good old days. i want to say, yeah ive got the gamerpic for completeing the WHOLE of COD4 on veteran and got the last prestige mode haha, but i cant, because they're tight. i even thought that you might get a halo 3 theme for comlpeting the game on legendary, but no. its starting to irritate me that no develpoer is adding in these sort of treats anymore. even unlockable weapons are being filtered out slowly. everyone getting the same weapons right at the start of the game sounds to me like a bit of a bugger. they need to sort it out i think, because before long you might not get achievements from games before too long.
