The New Xbox Experience

Basically.. yes. How can you honestly get a 'sense of acheivment' about getting points on game? What are you going to use that acheivment on? Your C.V? A pick-up line for girls?

No. It's just a stupid number in an online world. Acheivments kinda ruins the point of gaming, since people go all out for them and look at walkthroughs/spoilers to pursure their desperate desire for a number to go up by 5 points. Fair play if you don't, though.

I'm not just directing this at you by the way. That's just in general how i feel.

Achievments give you a sense of accomplishment and proof that you have done that, such as if i say i completed Saints row 2 the day it was released nobody would believe me but if i show them my achievments i can show the date

It may be stupid to you but not to others. You should at least try to understand and at the very least respect that. I am sure there are things you enjoy doing that others would think is stupid.

There are clearly a lot of people that care about achievements or else they wouldn't be popular. So popular that infact Sony had to copy and introduce the trophy system into their own games.

Tbh, looking at them they seem stupid, but they do infact add a sense of challenge and competition to the games your playing.

So popular that habbo, world of warcraft, flash websites and various games now have award/achievement systems now and it started with the xbox, clearly achievements in games are a much bigger thing than some seem to realise
