I formatted my HDD a few weeks ago, and when I did, I lost my Mass Effect 100% achievement... Basically the "Platinum Trophy".. when you go into your Gamertag, your first page, the Achievement summary, it shows all of your achievements, and then it has icons for each of the games you've gotten all of the achievements for.

Prior to formatting my drive it had a Mass Effect Icon (meaning I had gotten all of the Mass Effect achievements. But now, there's nothing there for Mass Effect. my other games retained their icons (Xmen Origins and Oblivion), but Mass Effect is gone. I haven't lost my achievements, all 49/46 (it stupidly doesn't count Pinnacle Station achievements on the "out of #" total, but they count...

I have no way of getting it back short of making a new Gamertag and getting all of the achievements over again (and I'm certainly not doing that).. I'm just wondering if anyone else has coming across this issue.

That sucks, happened to me. Basically you have to let it update on live before hand otherwise its gone.

That really sucks :-( I don't have 100% on any of my games so I can't help. I guess it is the principal of the thing that matters, isn't it?!

All I can say is that sucks. But then again, really does it? It's just a silly icon. You know you beat it.

But if metagaming is that important to you, then enjoy:

Achievement Unlocked
it matters and it doesn't matter.

I know that it's just a silly icon, and I know that I still have all of my achievements... but those silly icons are the gaming equivalent of a veteran's medals.. Knowing that among the games I have "mastered", there is one I "mastered" (and particularly, the one I've mastered the most - If I lost my Lego Batman icon, I don't think I'd care as much), that is missing from that list.

It's more of a psychological thing.

thanks so much, you gave me an idea how to fix it, and it WORKED

that's right, I FIXED IT! WOOT

and you can too :)

All you need to do is delete your gamertag off your HDD/memory card, and Recover it from Xbox Live, and you'll get your completion credit back.

took me about 2 seconds to get it back

and it's thanks to you that I even thought of doing that :)
