Achievements are essential!  There are multiple reasons that I am an achievement whore.

1. Gamerscore = bragging rights

2. Achievements help measure completion of a game

3. Some clever achievments actually change the way I'd play a game

4. Closing out a game has a whole new meaning and is much more definitive

5. After gaining 50 points in one day, it's usually a good sign that I played enough that day :)

6. I like to be rewarded.  Avatar rewards, gamer pic rewards, mental pat on the back rewards.  Yeah...

I'm sure there are more, but I think it's safe to say that I am indeed addicted.
