What are your top 5 Xbox 360 Achievements. Basically, which ones were you most happy to get and most likely to brag about to other gamers? You can get the images from your xbox.com profile. I basically base my top achievements on how much pain I had to go through to get them. Masochist gamer, I know. Anyway, here is my top 5: 1) Platinum Artist - Rock Band Completed the Endless Setlist on expertNotes: Did this by myself doing both vocals and bass 2) A Real Challenge - Bionic Commando: Rearmed Completed all 56 challengesNotes: Some are so hard that when I got this achievement I was only 1 of 73 people to have it 3) Smile - Geometry Wars Evolved 2 Had to win and fail levels on the sequence board to make a smiley faceNotes: This was painful. I came so close so many times but choked. Eventually I got it though. 4) Speed Run - Braid Completed a full speed run, beating the challenge timeNotes: You have to beat the game start to finish (including the epilogue) in 45 minutes or less. You have very little room for error in the run. It's very satisfying when you accomplish it. 5) Five Levels - Super Contra Beat the game on the default settingNotes: This game is fuggin HARD, much harder than the old NES version

Oh boy, hmm...
1. AN-I-MAL!! in Rock Band (Beat the game on Expert Drums) 2. 7 Day Survivor in Dead Rising (Survive for roughly 36 real time hours without dying. Not many folks have this one--it's hard finding a 360 to live that long. ;D) 3. Seriously... in Gears of War (Kill 10k people online... I did this legit) 4. Frank the Pimp in Dead Rising (Escort 8 Females at once... This game's AI is broken, so this took a perfect run to do.) 5. Orb Hunter / Free Runner in Crackdown (Find all 800 orbs in the game. Sooo hard.)
Bonus: Sneak King! in Sneak King (Complete the game) :lol1:

1. Frank the Pimp - TYPE: 1 Play REQ: Simultaneously escort 8 female survivors. This is hard imo, its hard enough escorting a few survivors through the mall let alone 8 and let alone 8 females. 2. Zombie GenociderTYPE: 1 Play REQ: Defeat at least 53,594 zombies. Purely due to the time consuming brain numbing length of going backwards and forwards over and over for hours mowing down zombies in the car park. 3. Gold ArtistFinished the Endless Setlist in Band World Tour on Hard I did this by myself playing guitar and singing on vocals, not quite as good as Cory's Platinum artist but still a great achievement. 4. Expert Records KeeperRestore all of Piñata Central’s Computer Records Anyone who's played Viva Pinata TIP will understand, this takes fuggin ages to get every kind of Pinata and send all 96 off to partys. 5. 6 Rush TDs with the Dolphins6 Rush TDs in a game with the Dolphins (non co-op) I added this one because in Madden 09 the Dolphins have to be the worst team and to get 1 Rush TD's is an achievement let alone 6 lol

you guys have done soem crazy stuff with your points. where do you find the time?? that is my issue. Esp with a new baby and my new area is VA, but still I get to even work from home a few days here and there and can't find the time.
Your achievements all rock from the three of you. 20k points?? Zoop killing 10k people on gears, freakin unreal. all of you are intimadating me to even play or show you my user name, I am still in 2nd grade and all of you have PD's, lol. well, maybe you can teach me a few things or two on xbox. My selling with ebay is almost done, (I had a specific amount of items to sell to make room and made a deal with my wife) should all be gone in 1-2 months top, after that, xbox time should ramp up. keep up the great work.
If any of you have super cool old shooting games or dirst cheap xbox 360 games for sale, let me know. Gears I bought new, but I like to buy older games and not spend so much money on them. maybe i will get mario wii, I used to be the champ on the older system, for real, my wife would die laugh telling you this, but it is true, I COULD drive, not sure if I could now, but that is one I want to buy used. Talk to all of you soon, keep up the great work on achievements.

Hahaha, thanks Leeroy. I live a good life; not a lot of money, but a living wage doing work that I've gotten very good at. I can finish my day of work in 5 hours, I live with my gal who is a full-time student and worker, so we don't have much time together. She's a big gamer, too, so we share the hobby. We're a pretty strictly-fun and supportive couple, so this works out.
For Gears, which I'm currently playing nightly, my best friend and other friends who now live long distance play it, so that's a definite incentive for the fun; same thing applied with the first Gears. As for being good, I've just practiced a ton and been gaming since I was 3 on my aunt's Atari 2600. Got an NES at the age of 4 on one of my shopping sprees with my mom. Bubble Bobble was my first game of my own, I picked it out based on the cover. :yes: I miss those days, don't you guys? "Yeah! Mega Man is gonna rock! Look at that weird freakish man dancing on the cover!" :lol1:

Approaching 1999 rounds played in Gears 2... About 200 to go. That's gotta be a feat since that game is so goddamn buggy.

I don't dig the multiplayer outside of Horde too much. It's okay, but I'd rather be doing something else most of the time. How close are you to the 100,000 kills?

4900. I'll never get that. Not worth the time. 10,000 is tough for what I do, as I rarely do Horde (though it's cool, but when I'm in the mood for Horde, I prefer L4D campaign instead since it's better for that type of gameplay). Essentially 4400 of those 4900 are human players killed, which is what I boast about the most.

Essentially 4400 of those 4900 are human players killed, which is what I boast about the most. You played 1750 online matches but only got 4900 kills? That seems off to me. That's only 2.5 kills per match. I know you kill more than that per match. I have like 2000 kills all from mostly from 1 playthrough of campaign and about 100 levels of Horde. I try to stay clear of crazy grinding achievements. They kill the fun of the game for me. I do like creative achievements a lot though.

Rounds, not Matches, which is a big difference (though that's still likely what you meant). 2.5 is actually pretty great on average. The thing is, certain modes (like respawn modes) ruin your stats since they distort the kill/death ratio beyond repair. I wish it gave Execution/Warzone stats, as mine would be about 4 kills to every death. You can go here: gearsofwar.xbox.com/WebStats/default.htmand type in ZoopSoul to bring up my in-depth stats.

Yeah I meant rounds. That's pretty cool that they have all the stats out there like that. I've only played 1 game. 21 kills and 41 deaths. That was in that game I joined with you guys. I think we played 3 rounds of 10 minutes each. My time playing was 32 minutes of which I spent 24 seconds in cover. The other matches I played were in Gears 1. If I remember correctly I died like 10 times before I even got my first kill when I was getting used to the map and game we were playing. That was Annex though so I'm sure it's easier to rack up kills there because you get to respawn infinitely.

Yeah, I love the in-depth stats thing, really cool. Too bad so many aspects of multiplayer are balls. :lol1:
