Something good would be like...

Get 1000 gs on a game and get 100 free ms points.

That would make Avatar the most played game ever probably.

So basically you want a platinum trophy. I'm surprised this is an issue for people, I haven't gotten 100% on any game yet and some of them I play every day.

No just recognition of your acheivements.

I got 100% in COD 2 and CSI and got nothing extra for it.

Not aying I have sour grapes about it  btw just  looking at another angle on it.

oh no I didn't think you were mad about it, I'm just amazed anyone has the motivation to get 100%.

I agree with the 100 free microsoft points. I wouldn't get any as i never got 100% achievements or trophy's.

Funny thing is torillian they never used to bother me, but I now find that they can make games so more interesting.

Example quantum of solace.

Boring game imo but when you actually go for achievements it gets much more interesting.

Take the stealth parts you dont have to do them that way but when you do it is kinda enjoyable.

I remember that. You said something along the lines of "the Wii isn't for hardcore gamers" and I responded that your gamerscore (was in the 4k range) makes me laugh.

I know rol but I genuinely do get more out of my games now.

It just seems to give them a cutting edge somehow.

Sometimes you can spend ages getting 2 points but the buzz is worth it.

BTW I still do not compromise my gaming by going on to easy to get them.

second fiddle always.

Unless they got a platnum or somthing. I hear what the OP is saying.

Like the Platinum trophy for when you've finished all other trophies. I get what you're saying. If you get 100% its nice to get a little sumthn sumthn. Otherwise the climax just fades away and you feel empty and alone.

dude are you serious, you're playing video games, the virtual world is empty, and I'm guessing you're playing alone in your room. Platinums/Achievements aren't going to give you what you need buddy.

I agree, about the only thing I really like about trophies are the platinums (which I still don't have). It's a nice little "good job!" for your work.

And "playing in your room" hahaha. I havent had "a room" since i was 17 still living at home. Dude, im old!

Nah. The whole point of getting achievements is the opportunity to brag about them to other people. Occasionally, it floats across your mind that nobody else cares, but you quickly erase this thought, as it is quite frightening. Point is, I don't care, and neither does anybody else. Additional achievement aren't needed.
