    yeah there are some games I am just too cool to be seen with in my game list
    I am still pretty pissed at shoe for getting the dragonball fighting game on my list

    this would actually be kind of a funny prank to pull on somebody, just rent a handful of horrible stupid games and play them on a dude's xbox

    kind of funny because it's mostly just super dorky
    "mostly"

    uh huh

    I'm having the opposite problem with COD5

    7 hours deep and no achievements -- I haven't touched the single player

    I mean at least I'll be playing the games

    as tempting as it is, I'd never rent anything like, say, Avatar and get an easy 1k gamerpoints. It's just so cheesy.
    I did that for one game. One!

    TMNT.

    I felt really dirty afterwards, so now I try and pick games that I'll actually enjoy rather than run-through as quick as possible for the points.

    I do suck for getting a game and then realizing I'm not really into it, but I get one achievement so I only have that tiny percentage complete. Like Soul Calibur 4, why the hell did I buy that?

    I'm still intending to get a copy of Army of Two sometime.
    No rush, I'll be ready to play when you get it.

    Also, as far as my games list is concerned, there are quite a few on their that friends have brought over and used on my machine. They're games I'll never play, and having them there with 0 points bugs the hell out of me. :P

    None at all, which makes playing shitty games for the points even less worthwhile.

    yeah I felt pretty gypped with all of the fable achievements

    I kept trying to get more and more people to have sex with me simultaneously in the hopes that the game would acknowledge my orgiastic ways, but all I got was a bunch of stds and a few bastard children

    Well, there's the one, at least.

    Man it is pissing me off how I can't find the last item I need for the Box of Secrets in the DLC. The fucking clothing merchants in Fairfax Gardens must hate me.

    I laughed at how in The Simpsons game you got an achievement for starting the game

    But then I was shocked to see other other games do the same except they weren't doing it as a joke

    The last couple (there are only 6 total) take soooooo much time, effort and luck! :x

    Yeah, the designers were obviously pretty lazy with that. But hey, the game's fun.

    Speaking of it, didn't you say the designers were working on a new game with a bigger budget?

    Then we played warcraft.

    i played so much ecco the dolphin on the sega genesis, and as far as i can recall i never deciphered any of the plot or had any idea what i was doing. i just loved swimming around.
