I think someone needs to start an AA club for GamerScoreWhores. I have seen hours of my life wasted playing such games as King Kong, TMNT and NBA 2K6 just to boost my gamerscore.
I have vowed that when i hit 20k (currently at 19,200) i will do better things with my life.
I know there are others out there like me, and it's not easy to get your life back on the path of rightchesnous, we need all the support we can get, and all the support you can give.
So please, this Christmas spare a thought for those of us who are caught in the struggle, fighting to do what we know is right and good, but are constantly compelled to do what we know is so wrong.
I will be forever haunted knowing that now i am banned, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs will be shown as the last game i played on my 360 _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

Yeh, X360A.. lol.. They are all achievement whores over there..
you gave me a hell of a laugh with this post.. lmfao
I hope you do decide to spend your time better..
I was once like you, except i said i would settle down at 50,000 gamerscore lol..
Since about 50,000 points i only played games for the value and not achievement points and im still 70,000k hehhe.
Microsoft really have something good with the achievements because i can tell you that it is very addictive, Took me months to get out of the habit.. hehe
With all that said, you can see i know what you mean..

I was only just checking out my own achievements.. When i first started playing 360 back in 2005-2006 i was addicted i must say.. But these days, scraping "75,000"+ i take it pretty easy.
Only play the games i like the most now.. Don't have the time like i used to that's for sure.

fantas my beverage of choice for a good gaming session, altho i find if i drink alcohol i become useless, and i smoked i got mad skills, use to be i couldnt play with smoking but nearly kicked the habbit fortunately and can still enjoy my games.
my friends who broke 75k is just playing for fun now too but as i say to him just cos hes stopped whoring dont mean hes not a whore nemore! my main reason for liking achievements is that its a record fo all the games ive played, and peoeple can easily see which games i enjoyed the most by how much score i could be bothered to get! theses days alot of the achievements are very good and a fun challenge, and ive played games for years, and b4 achievements id still play through a game on hardest settings just for the challenge.

yeh, thats me these days.. I had my gamerscore whore days.. Very tiring especially when you play legit (unlike alot of the gamerscore cheats).
Achievements are addicting for most people, but there are still that small few who don't bother at all.. _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:
