Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
Haha I can understand that people hate achievements/trophies, that's fine with me ^^
But I must admit that before getting into this, I basically never finished games in hard/very hard (except for GOW 1 and 2) cause there was absolutely no reward, now at least I have a little gling and I can think "Yeah, I've done it!"
But even as a huge trophy/achievo collector, yes, some are just lame XD and hell of a time consuming.

Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
I don't have an issue with acheevos themselves, it's probably that there is no consistency. Not all Achievements are 'achievements' Avatar, anyone? Some truly are achievements while others, WTF... plus throw into the mix some require various online conditions... >_>
It used to if I didn't complete a game, I just didn't play advance difficulties, now I somehow have a pending incomplete task just because I'm not skilled enough or don't have enough time to actually undertake daunting or monotonous practices.

Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
WOW! You're one of the few people I've seen with a gamerscore that high! My gs is 65,050 with 17 games 100% completed. I use to be addicted to getting achievements, but I don't have the time or motivation to do it anymore.OniRaitei wrote: I think I can keep you company in that regard. My gamerscore on XBox 360 is 111,955. That might qualify me as one, but I don't really have time to do it anymore.
Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
For the 360 and PS3, developers are required to include achievements/trophies in games now. Microsoft and Sony have some basic guidelines for the achievements/trophies, but for the most part the developers just do whatever. Sometimes they get creative with the achievements, and sometimes they just do those super easy ones just to meet the requirement of having them.
And yes, Avatar lol! 30 seconds = 1000 gamerscore. You spend more time watching the opening cut scene than it takes to get all 5 achievements.
These days I save my achievement getting attention for the games I really, really like. Those games are the ones I will try to get to 100%.

I know the number seems high, but there are tons of people with 300k+ gamerscore. I accumulated my score over a period of 5 years, so when you consider that, it really isn't that high. There are actually a few people out there who are actively racing to get 1,000,000 gamerscore!Arch-vile wrote: WOW! You're one of the few people I've seen with a gamerscore that high!

Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
How far are they from reaching a million?
There were only a few games that I was really determined to complete. Just Cause, Doom, Fallout 3(including DLC), Shadow Complex, ES IV Oblivion, and Borderlands(not counting DLC). Some XBLA games like Gunstar Heroes, Daytona USA, Afterburner Climax, the Monkey Island games, Castlevania SOTN/HD and Pacman CE DX were very easy to get and took little time. I wanted to complete Sonic Generations but I stopped playing it with only 2 achievements left to get.

300k+ people must have played 300-ish games then, or maybe more if they aren't all 100%. 1K Gamerscore for each game lol.

Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
yeah, exactly. after busting a new game for a few days my eyes get baggy, my butt hurts, my shoulders start to sag... or is that just getting old? can't imagine what would happen if i did that every day.

Re: Your Latest Trophy/Achievement
No, some games can cause just that much physical stress since they're so painful to play
