Poll: Just Broken The 10000 Gamerscore Barrier

[Sajuuk-khar]

About 8000, don't know how many games. I don't really care, haven't maxed any game either.

Achievements are one of the most pointless things ever to have come to gaming. Having a high gamerscore does not make you either cool or skilled.

Nah, but they can be fun to go for and can provide replayability. If you're into that sort of thing.

 

[kommando367]

I have 35528 over 124 games

I would suggest raising the poll to about 50k+ for the max, but it's already filled up, so it's best to just leave it the way it is.

 

[Brian Hendershot]

Mine is around 40K I think. I think I have had the account for three years now? (Even though XBL says I have only been on for a two years).

 

[Akihiko]

33510G. Since 200.......8. I think. But I have played a large number of games and even attained all achievements on a few of them. Dead Space will forever have a special place in my gaming heart as being the first game I ever got 1000G on.

EDIT: Slightly off topic, but is anyone else annoyed by the way that achievements for DLC are included in achievement lists even if you don't have that DLC? Annoys the hell out of me. I was this close to "completing" Reach and one or two other games before that update came out, only to have it snatched away from me by bullshit DLC achievements.

Yeah it bugs me as well, since I rarely buy DLC. Fortunately on the PS3, the platinum trophy doesn't count the dlc trophies. Still messes up your percentage completion though.

 

[JackandTom]

I have about 31000, and most of my Gamerscore comes from various Halo games, L.A Noire an Just Cause 2.

 

[MurderousToaster]

Over around 90 games, I have 29254. I'm not much of an achievement whore, but I have to admit that seeing that I have less than half of the gamerscore I could have does bug me a little.

Surely it's not that hard for MS to implement a check in Windo....sorry the "dashboard" to see if you have that DLC and then not display the achievements if you don't? Oh wait, then you wouldn't be nagged into buying the DLC would you? And they wouldn't get their cut of the profits. Silly me.

I dont know how many games I have played. I can check, but I am not at home, so I cant check right now. Its alot. I know I have completed (maxxed the achievements) 81 games, currently, but I have probably played between 150 and 200 games on my 360.

My gamerscore is 138865, or something like that. You can check my profile, I am just firewalled from it here at work. Its not something to brag about, though, to be honest.

 

[tehroc]

15,9something/250k+. I might get 200 out of a game, before I tire of it. I use Gamefly for most of my 360 needs for past 3-4 years.

 

[ASan83]

Just broke the 20,000 barrier not long ago.

Yes, this is EXTREMELY annoying. I got a 1000 on Resident Evil 5, for example, but it doesnt show up as a 100% complete game, because of the DLC. Another annoying one is Army of Two 2... there was a glitch that I as far as I am aware, is still broken, that if you completed the game (or something like that) before you started the DLC, you couldnt get the achievements for the DLC. They wouldnt pop.

33390. My wife has over 42000 as of this week.

I think my 33k gamerscore comes from over 100 titls incl. arcade titles and represents about 40% of the total gamerscore I could have earned if I was more diligent with achievements - of course that includes games I rented and didn't finish, games I borrowed, or even games I returned because I didn't like them - so some games I have 2-3 achievements with 50 gamerscore or less.

I'd happily delete those games from my profile if I could - I'd rather have a lower gamerscore with a higher percentage of completed achievements.

Dude, I HAVE completed Reach - TWICE - and now it's no longer completed because of the achievements for the latest map pack. I don't play Reach anymore and the achievements 343 dreamed up are crap.

 

[Mace Tulio]

Just shy of 30,000. Just don't ask me about my completion rate...

 

[TheLastSamurai14]

Um...I don't have a 360, but I do have a PS3. Would it count if I converted my trophies to gamerscore? I'll get back to you with my score then...

 

[ruben6f]

I have 18170G don't play many games but I try and get all the achievements.
