I was hoping I would find somebody like you. I own a 360 and I gotta ask you x-box nuts what is the craze behind acheivements? It's gotta be the dumbest trick that ever worked in the history of consoles. I just feel like 360 owners completely bought into that crap with the whole "yea I wanna play more x-box to get more achievements!" Can we do anything with these points? Is it just some imaginary pissing contest between gamers on live? I'm not trying to be insulting I'm literally trying to make sense of this cuz i just don't freaking get it. It tells me I beat a level and I get ten points on my x-box...........................yay?

lol ok, I get where your coming from. Some people go crazy with these points, for what ever reasons they may be. Theres even talk about game developers looking to sponsor certain people who have "so many" achievements in their total score, that may be 1 reason why they do just what you explained up there. I like the achievements because they reward us gamers for doing stuff that in games that are usually pretty hard to pull off. I try to play the harder games, and you will never find me playing those sports games, game that gamers would never play if achievements were not involved (easy points games). I love the Xbox 360 Live arcade for 2 reasons, #1: I love old- school games. #2 I love hard games, most of the Arcade games are pretty hard, if you don't think so I can recommend some to you. I only play games that I like, achievements are just a cool thing Microsoft has added. I like scrolling through others compare games, to see how many achievements people have on the harder games and I rate them in a skill ratio, I love it for that reason. In turn I am willing to help out anyone get achievements for any reason, as long as they are friendly. Just like I am willing to train anyone on any game that I consider myself expert level at. You get the idea, hope this helps ya man.

I'll let you know it I ever get those

ok Aegis wing is free though, so all you have to do is DL it .

I will totally have to check these games out. I am always looking for ways to get more achievement points. Thanks for the suggestions. I owe you a rematch at perfect dark zero. We will have to play some day. -Megan

cool DOOM

I'm not big on the 360, but those are some damn good games on your list
