re: Achievement Whores

I've had my 360 for nearly 2 years and my gamerscore is around 13,500-14,000. I forget the exact amount.

Not a achievement whore at all though. When I first play through a game, I RARELY look at the achievements beforehand. Sorta ruins the experience. I just happen to run over a good number.

As for games I have 1000 in: Call of Duty 2, Call of Duty 4, King Kong

I have 1210 in Gears of War. Damn annex achievement.

I actually am proud of myself for having that much of a gamerscore, Im aproaching 50,000 and have over 2000 achievements. I take gaming serioulsy and complete alot. My gears of war clan was ranked 2 in the world about 1 year ago. My Cod4 clan was ranked in the hundreds a few months ago. And I do have a complete life. I have a GF, have gotten head from girl, got into a technical highschool that only acepts about 200 people every year, and have plenty of friends. So to be honest I think I have a fine life.

re: Achievement Whores

Before my brother's 360 was stolen i had a gamerscore of over 8,000 i plan on buying another one for myself shortly after they announce a price drop...I was and i am a achievement whore..that was the main reason i went thru a few games but mainly played them cause they were good..I dont see anything wrong with achievement whoring..I'm a gamer nerd and have been for 22 years so i prefer to stay home and just fire up blue dragon or gta or any rpg and just veg out like that..I dont see why some people would make a big deal on why the way other people play their 360..

How many games have you played to get that score though? Do you play a lot of games or 100% everything you own?
I couldn't tell you off hand. Probably quite a lot. I rent games online, so that helps boost it too. I don't complete all games 100%, but I do with some of the AAA titles that I love. A long time back I was really into achievements and did rent the odd titles for the points, but I have really slowed down recently and have stopped caring about it. Also, I have had the 360 since launch, so that is over two and a half years now.

if you bothered to 1K COD4 (which means spending time getting the Mile High achievement), and are obviously going towards the 250 extra points in Gears, would that not make you an achievement whore as well?

re: Achievement Whores

I have about 200 gamerscore, so I'd say I'm not an achievement whore.

re: Achievement Whores

Ok I would just like to clear up one thing... having a high gamer score doesn't necessarily make you good at video games. You may just be lucky or play really easy achievement games. (AVATAR, Madden 08, Prey) My GS is only 5500g and I can beat people with 50,000g in halo 3

re: Achievement Whores

Wow. I have had my 360 almost since launch day never had rrod or nothing. My gamer score is bordering on 4000 not there yet. I have around 10 to 13 games and I have only gotten all achievements in oblivion and almost all in halo.

re: Achievement Whores

I dunno, I've had my 360 for 2 years now and I'm pushing 19,000 gamerscore. I wouldn't count myself as an achievement whore. but for games such as Bioshock and Oblivion, I wanted to get them all, and so I did. However, I got most of the Halo 3 online achievements by sheer dumb luck...

You get the Mile High Achievement during your campaign run. I was going after those stupid televisions, I'll admit that, but only because I found a bunch during my early runthroughs.

And the Gears of War achievements (newer 250 points) are gotten from just playing annex matches, basically. So no, I wouldn't call myself a whore.

I think what the guy meant was; We dont care that some girl was drunk enough to find her way into your pants.

I think the fact that you even feel the need to mention it on an internet forum pretty much guaranteed you're a complete nerd. You know I have a kid, proof positive that I had to have engaged in coitis at least once. Should I shove that in people faces every once in a while?
