Achievements : what should I go for?

miracleboy · 5 Jun 2008 at 15:02

Getting close to 10000 now and want to break the barrier soon, and I'm aware that I have loads of achievements that I haven't done - a lot of them probably pretty easy and for some bigs points.

Ones like 'name a findling' in Viva Pinata which I still haven't done. And this is for games I already own, and I don't like to boost and stuff like that - and no I will not be buying Avatar!

Anyone care to take a look at the achievements on my gamertag and see if there is any there I should be looking to pick off first?

Hmm strange that's what it gave me as the link (I had to get it from my iphone as the Xbox site is blocked at work). Well if you go to the Xbox Live site and just put my gamertag in it should come up with it (if you can post the link here would be grateful!).

er carry on playing GTAIV, Halo 3, CoD 4 and Bioshock.
King Kong and Lost Via Domus are easy points (I have 800 & 1000 respectively).
The Simpsons Game is quite enjoyable

Condemned is your easiest bet, follow a guide for all the birds. Easy points galore on that game. GTA is also another contender, get a fair chunk just for doing the main game and then if you do some additional stuff you can easily get 500+ (Im on 845)

I see you have Madden 06, that is an easy 1000 right there

Rent Avatar, get 1000 points in 2 minutes. Job done

Your gamertag tells me you like to move on to new shiny games before finishing old ones.

There's some corkers there you really should have given more time.

Mass Effect, Lost Odyssey, Kameo, Condemned, Dead Rising, Oblivion, Viva Pinata.

My suggestion would be to pick one and only one and at least finish it.

I'm ashamed to admit that I did that and it cost me £1.50, half price because I took it back before 6pm. I only rented it at 4:30pm lol.

As said before Lost and King Kong are very easy to get 1000 points, as is COD4 if you have enough patience to play on Veteran.

Guilty!

Yes I used to be terrible (worse than now) at buying something, playing it for a while then getting something else. But recently I've started going back and playing some through.

Trying to finish Ace Combat 6 at the moment, then will go back to GTA and some of the older ones.

At least achievements drive you back to playing some of the older really good games - GRAW and COD for example.

I traded in Madden 06 for 07 a long time ago, and not going down the Avatar route!
