if achievements are done properly they can extend the replay value of a game. achievements for beating levels and the game on certain difficulties are stupid. i think achievements thaty are creative are amazing. just go through the achievements on the orange box and i garantee you will spend ten or more hours trying to get them all.Sir Boss said:I see no point to them at all, I see no point to achievements at all, hey... remember when we played games for fun, not just for e-peen points?
