Only five people in the league have played Alone in the Dark, and three of them alredy have all the achievements. (Me and you being two of them.) I got every achievement for Alone in the Dark in less than 24 hours, so I don't think it should qualify.

Aegis Wing has got 6 people who 100%-ed it, but it's a short freebie game, so that's not too bad.

Yeah I've finally beaten MrMarc's Gamerscore in PGR4 !!!
The Platinum Award is mine :)

@IU players: dont mean to complain too much but isnt it a bit crap that a lot of the achievements seem to be encouraging "achievement collectors" to just play through the game on easy.

I dont normally have massive problems with this since usually games will give massive rewards at the end to people who have played it through on at least medium and often then on hard / ultra hard.

However in IU collecting achievements clearly favours "easy" mode. An obvious example being the On The Run achievement.

This is really annoying as although I want to try and do well in the VGchartz race as it is quite fun im much more bothered about enjoying the game and therefore will just do it through on Normal as i'll probably only have enough time for 1 play through over next few weeks which will probably kill my chances in the race.

Whats everyone else doing?

@ morgz, I am playing on normal too, but I have picked up most of those special bonuses. I will have the guide from next week, so that will help me, but I am still quite disappointed at the achievements. I much preferred LO's, though my roughly 120G does seem about right from about 3 hours of play, but I think that there is an issue with so few achievements being given for story progression. Anyway, since I am at school I dont get to play at weekends, and SW: TFU is coming out in 2 weeks, so I probably wont get another chance for the 2nd playthrough any time soon

Its going to be a tough slog for the IU Achievements due to the lack of story progression ones, but this makes the race (although annoying) more deserved for the person who actually gets them. Also, thats why I put Races as long as 4 weeks so that people have time for at least a 2nd playthrough for games they feel will warrant an achievement guide to get them.

I am playing my first playthrough without thinking much of the Achievements and will get them maybe next time on my second playthrough as well.

@Barozi

Gratz on that. MrMarc sweated very hard for that award and wont be pleased!

Sorry, but I must laugh at the naysayers now.

Regardless of the Achievements, IU is a great game and Im enjoying it very much. Another great one from Square Enix. If this is the sign of things to come for Star Ocean 4, Im salivating already! :)

Although as Morgz mentioned it encourages the Easy mode for Achievements, alot of them are specific and scenario based so Im sure most members wont get them so easily which makes the Platinum award and Race finishers more deserved.

@strategyking
Why arent you in the Race yet then? :P

What the hell is wrong with mygamercard.net?
It has been messing up these past couple of days. I'm not able to access the site or post in the forum to know whats up. Are they doing maintenance or what?

Sorry for the off topic response. I just noticed my sig gamertag is messed up...

I want my achievements to get tracked, but I had to get rid of Xbox Live since there were a bunch of wires running across my room and it made the place look like crap. Does anyone know of any alternatives to the horrendously expensive 360 Wi-Fi? It's one thing to not include it with the system, but...

Maybe it's updating for the new Xbox experience? =P

Oh I'd like it to happen...!
