Does make you wonder what their life is like though Besides playing video games 24/7 what else do they do?
Besides playing video games 24/7 what else do they do?
I am not a huge score whore (yet, i am getting there) but i love the sense of achievement you feel when you get all the cheeves on a game. I have only done this with around 6 games but each time made me feel fuzzy and warm inside. If i really love a game or it's quite easy i will try and go for the full gamerscore but i don't see the point in doing this with games you really don't enjoy (unless they are super easy) or that are frustrating. gears 2 pisses me off when they put things like the seriously cheeve in, blatantly just trying to get you to play their game and nothing else.
Recently I have been feeling a little against cheevos, I have played some really pants games and just gotten score out of them and then weigh up the costs... isit really worth it.I got to admit I feel like I have gotten lost in score and no longer enjoy gaming for the games.About a year ago when I first joined True Achievements I was shocked to notice that my Average Achievements Ratio was below 50%, and ever since I really started whoring away and the fun disapeared, I wish I could go back to not caring and If i rented a poor game I would just send it back but I end up forcing myself to play a sh*t game :'(

I won't play a game I'm not enjoying just to get the achievements any more, but if I enjoy a game I will do my best to get as many of the achievements as possible. Take Battlefield 2: Bad Company. I've really enjoyed playing this game (so much better than MW2) so I want to complete it. Until Onslaught Mode was released I was only one achievement shy of the maximum (that bloody Demolition kills one) and I'm desperate to get 100% on it. I think if you're enjoying a game the achievements just help to extend the life of the game and the enjoyment
I'm with JT. I've been off the whoring for a while. I'm looking forward to Crackdown 2 though, the main thing I loved about the first one was the fun and varied achievements it had. Looks like number 2 is gonna be similar.
