And my question is what is the point of playing video games for just achievements? Anyone saying they're quitting Halo because of achievements or ranks is mental in my books. It's the exact same game gameplay wise is it not? That's kind of why I don't like achievments, they're great to keep track of what you've done, but everyone thinks they're the main purpose of games. Weird. Edited by Wesley, Sep 24 2008, 05:52 PM.

Achievements add gameplay value. Some games actually NEED to have rewards, tangible or not, to be played. They're a part of the game now, same as any other collectible. Except now, you have a permanent reward however useless it may be. That's how I see it. |

Never said that. I said the game died for me (and others) last year shortly after it came out. An update and new achievements, that many of them, will not make it more fun to play. Achievements add HUGE replay value for me like in Assassin's Creed and Devil May Cry. I bought the games to beat them, then played them three or four times as long because of achievements. I'm an achievement ***** because I love games, not because I think they're the only purpose. I still buy games for just story like MGS4 and Final Fantasy. |

I want Gears 2 so bad. Don't like a single one of my games now except for the occasional NHL09. |

That's how I feel about CoD4. Force Unleashed was so short lived. |

=[ Luckily the achievements look like they'll be fun to get so once I beat it I can go for the harder difficulties. =D So many games I want, and yet none come out before November. =[ (besides Infinite Undiscovery and Tales which will both be in my hands around Xmas) |

One of my favorite achievements is called "Worst Day Manager Ever". Keep this in mind that if you want an easy 5 or 10 I think points, when you start the game kill 12 storm troopers, easy since their your own men and they respawn. |
