MarvelousGerbil 09/02/11 3:05:00 PM #37:	That is really dumb, but since it's for a dumb game I don't really care.

Icehawk 09/02/11 3:31:00 PM #41:	I always call achievements "cheevos"... "chieves" though is too far! side note, this isn't as big of a deal on the Xbox. If they did this with the move on the PS3, where that bronze trophy stops you from getting a plat, which is a whole lot of extra EXP, that would be kind of annoying. With this, you lose out on 5 points. -- omg did u red text from last night dats so me LMAO : ) im not a slut i jus liek 2 haev fun LOL : ) <cite>Icehawk posted [p:289414] in Xbox 360 h...

FateStayAlbion 09/02/11 4:20:00 PM #46:	*Ultimaphazon posted...* Are people really getting angry over this? So what if you can't get that achievement? You can still have fun with the game. Does that 1000/1000 really mean that much to people? Quite a few people would be upset if they had like 990/1000, and it was impossible to get without dishing out a lot of money. Its just a completionist thing. People would be upset if you had to dish out extra money to get that final star in a Mario game, too. -- http://i54.tinypic.com/2m47kmg.jpg http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png <cite>FateStayAlbion posted [p:289419] in Xbox 360 h...
