I applaud Earnest Cavalli in his completely unbiased analysis on XBox achievements, which at the same time insinuates gaming as a whole has a "meaning".

I hate to break it to you, but GamerScore that some individuals have great interest in inflating has a much meaning as putting a disc in the drive and spending hours killing online - or any game for that matter.
