I know about it. Still, the only thing that would bring me back to WoW is my interest in playing with the JoV guys.

On a related note, here is a highly amusing flash game for the achievement addicts like myself.

Achievement Unlocked

If you havent played Defense Grid:The Awakening, that's a fun game with achievements. I got it off Steam last night and played it for 5.5 hours straight. I will warn you that if you were ever addicted to tower defense games this is the pinnacle of them.

Hidden Path Entertainment

Oh yea, its on Xbox Live too.

So what do you get from these points you rake in? A better worldwide rank on XBOX Live or can you buy something for them or get laid with the geek chicks who have a lower score than you?

Maybe it's just a substitute for lacking "substance" in other more personal areas :P

Heh, let's just cut right through it. Your little :P at the end of your little jab was cute and all, but your comment has no basis and is completely wrong. You don't know it, but you wish your life was as good as mine.

Anyhow, the point of the achievements is just to have mini-goals in games. Me having more achievement points than someone else doesn't make me better than them much like someone with more than me doesn't make them better than me. It's not a representation of your epeen size, man. It's just something else to do when you're playing a game.

Also, let me give you a small hint : if you find something you enjoy doing in a game, that's ok. Even if others don't enjoy that same thing. You giving me grief over it is pretty silly (even if it was half jokingly).

And yeah, I'd wager you anything that I've gotten laid more because of video games than you have.

The best thing about the x-box 360 isn't getting achievements... its showing people online that I've gotten them.

IF you have Call of Duty 4 and the Mile High Club Achievement you bet your ass you are a better gamer than most. I can go to video game conventions and be like " Hey baby, I got the mile high club achievement in CoD 4.." *Swoon* bam! laidsauce.

I can tell my wife I got an achievement, and she will laugh at me. Then we will go and have sex anyway.
