Thanks dude. That helped a lot. It sounds interesting. But getting 250 for beating Ninja Gaiden (it is just a example) and 1000 for finishing a EA game for kids is bullshit. I remember reading a article where gamers got pissed with achievements like:
1) die in easy 3 times
2) log on Live
3) kill someone in a match from a mile away with shotgun (ruining team experience)
I can understand that winning more points from a hard game would piss off companies and publishers. The problem is that raw score do not tell apart "Godzillas" and easy games from "reach level 99" or "collect all the 1200 orbs". This is not bullying. I think that this score system is amazing and I envy it. I just wish they could tell apart the smart asses from the great player.
Another thing I could not understand was why the users scores looks so low. Is it so hard to get points (considering that you may get up to 1000/game) or VG users are just average players? That is why I asked about my 400 games in games in points. Maybe people just play the games they like and ignore extras.
