Full Gamer Points?

    Following on from the recent "Toughest Achievements" thread .... what games have you got 1000 gamer points for (or what XBLA games do you have 200 points for?)

    Usually to get full points, you have to put in hours and hours beyond completing the game ... if you did it, was it worth it? :)

    Which games were a bitch to get 1000 on, and which ones were really easy?

    None and likely to stay that way. Many of the gamer points are far too tough to get or require far too much time to be poured into the game so that the game is no longer fun. Still have far too many unplayed games to waste my time extending my e-penis.

    Still one day I hope to get all the achievements in Geometry Wars, Robotron and Rush n' Attack :)

    Can't say gamer points mean anything to me... but I would have got full points on playing through King Kong, as it just gives you all the points for completing the game it seems.

    Or require a ****ton of hours in online play when I'd prefer to play 2p splitscreen or co.op


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    None so far... If anything, I reckon Castlevania is the most likely game for me to focus on...

    Yeah I'm in the same boat. I don't really give a toss about points. I got full points for just cause and oblivion though but thats just because they weren't too hard and I enjoyed playing the games through to get them. None of this kill 50,000 players w/ a single bullet bull****. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,393 ✭✭✭✭Vegeta


    Some games you just cant help it though

    I played some TMNT game my 5 year old nephew owned and just by finishing it on normal difficulty you get 1000 gamer points. It was really really easy too, finished it in 2 sittings I think


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 163 ✭✭-annex-


    One proper playthrough of Oblivion gets you 1000 points easy. No ridiculous challenges to complete; just finish the game and all quests and you have it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,267 ✭✭✭mcgovern


    Viva Pinata
    King Kong
    CoD2
    NFS:MW
    FIFA06:RTWC
    Oblivion (but 10 points disappeared due to a bug in the game)

    Most of those you got all 1000 for finishing it.

    Viva Pinata, CoD2 and Oblivion were all worth it as it gave me something to aim for in Viva Pintata (the game was largely objective free), CoD2 was a different game on Veteran than normal/hard and Oblivion meant you'd done all the major story quests for the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,325 ✭✭✭Q_Ball


    COD4 - was very satisfying to get all 1000, particulariy the mile high club

    Fight Night. Just playing through the game gets you the 1000.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,140 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    havnt compelted any i dont think, got a massive urge to play oblivion though, really never gave that game a chance but after mass effect im well up for some rpg action

    jsut got so many games to play


    cod3,darkness,superman returns and conan all sitting there unfinished, not even half played, mustgive it a good lash through

    just find it takes an eternity to kill enemies, and spells seem so weak


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,894 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    I have all the fight night ones, worms xbla adn UNO :o


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Arts Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 16,663 CMod ✭✭✭✭faceman


    Some achievements are satisfying to get but i despise "sandbox" achievements. i.e. find 100 flags or 100 cd challenges. I dont go for those as they are boring.

    I also despise games that make it too difficult to unlock gamerscore. Ive only something like 100 gamerscore on guitar hero 3 yet ive completed it a few times on different levels.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,943 ✭✭✭Burning Eclipse


    I've got the full quota for a few.

    Got the full 200 for Gauntlet... really enjoyed getting it. It was completed with 2 friends, took a few hours. So much fun, just had a laugh as the game didn't require a lot of concentration.

    Mate has the full 200 from marble blast... decent!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,571 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Thats very cool... getting under par times for Marble Blast on the Advanced Levels would NOT be easy... (I'm finding pars on intermediate hard enough!).

    Yup, the guy has a really low gamerscore, but is an all-round hero when it comes to games!! Halo 3 being a shining example!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,566 ✭✭✭GrumPy


    Halo 3, COD2, Fight Night, Oblivion. Think that em all


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 24,144 Mod ✭✭✭✭robinph


    Just got the full load of points from Dirt and Lego Star Wars II so far. I've been saving finishing off Oblivion for a while though so shall put some more hours into that soon to finish it off.

    Fight Night. Just playing through the game gets you the 1000.

    This.

    Closest I've come in any other games is Assassin's Creed as you get most of the achievements by just playing and finishing the story. I don't have any of the stupid flag collecting achievements and I didn't get the conversationalist achievement so I'm not bothered playing through it all over again just to get it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,169 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    COD4
    FN3
    Madden 06

    i think i got 845 from completing it. i collected all the flags in the first city but thats cos you pass thru it so much and there are only 20. i also got the conversationlist thing by chance and the one for watching the credits.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,149 ✭✭✭BFassassin


    I have got the 1000 points in Pes6 and King Kong.
    Kong was easy if not repetitive and pes6 took a lot of online play to finish it but it was worth it imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,825 ✭✭✭Mikeyt086


    FIFA 06 RTFWC
    Fight Night Round 3
    Madden 06
    NBA Live 06
    2006 FIFA World Cup
    NHL 07
    NBA Street Homecourt
    FIFA Street 3

    Uno

    When your as mad about every sport as i am you tend to play almost every sports game and they tend to have much easier achievements.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,860 ✭✭✭Julez


    Fifa RTWC
    Fight Night

    Not sure if I've any more?
    There are a few that I got all the single player ones but never bothered with the online ones, like with DiRT and stuntman ignition.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭A-Trak


    Some of the online achievments in games are to be blunt complete balls.
    They completely play to the fanboi's.

    The ones in Gears of War are a good example. Halo3 as well.
    Much preferred COD4's direction of all offline achievements.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    None. The most gamerpoints I have in anyone game is about 500 on Burnout Paradise but I have played that for about 40 hours :eek:

    +1 completely agree


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,559 ✭✭✭The tax man


    Nearest I got was 930 on Dirt. Only missing some online points but not really that pushed about it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 353 ✭✭BloodSugarSex


    i got the full 1000 for forza 2, the nearest i got after that was 980 on call of duty, still cant get that mile high club :mad:

    Gears is the worst. Dont agree about Halo though, most of the points given are from single player campaign, collecting hidden items and completing higher difficulties.
    There are some very difficult ones to get online, but there worth little points. Think an overkill in ranked FFA is only worth 5 points, whereas completing a short mission in single player is worth 30+ afair :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,058 ✭✭✭Unearthly


    I'd probably would of got it on Pro Evo 2008 if I actually liked the game.

    Not ready to put in the effort with first person shooters


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,264 ✭✭✭✭jester77


    I've only gotten full points on a few arcade games: Uno, Hexic, Root Beer Tapper, Cloning Clyde, Bankshot Billiards & Marble Blast Ultra.

    OMG, you collected all those flags?? Soul destroying! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Mr. K


    As regards retail games, I've only got the all of the points in Oblivion and Tomb Raider Legend. I'm close with loads of games though, including Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Himan: Blood Money and Bioshock. I'm so close in COD4, just Mile High Club to get.

    On the XBLA side, I've conquered SOTN and Golden Axe. I'm rather close with Sonic 1, 2 and Doom.

    It's just a matter of devoting a few hours to these games, but there's such a constant stream of quality. I'm playing DMC4 at the moment, but that's really tough to get points out of. Two playthroughs and only 180 points! Still not as bad as Blue Dragon though...

    I agree that COD4's offline only achievements is a great idea , it also stops gimps from cheating to get them in the middle of a game.Nothing worse then playing lone wolf and watching as the other 4 guys just standing there letting some fool kill them with a sword under 4 seconds.

    The closest i got was with Prey - 650 points. It takes a pretty good game to make me go back just to get the points, Best example is crackdown climbing the agency tower is fun. Getting top of the world wide leader board for 50 points aint.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,174 ✭✭✭✭Captain Chaos


    Closest I have gotten is 970 in Over G Fighters, only 1 achievement left to get but I need someone online to play against to level up to Predator rank seeing as no one plays this anymore as its a bit sh!t to most people.

    If anyone needs a hand getting some online achievements text me on Live.


  • Business & Finance Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 32,387 Mod ✭✭✭✭DeVore


    Wow, I simply couldnt be arsed. Life is too short. :)

    I never really got the idea of gamer points myself, I can see the (OCD) attraction but unless I can spend them somewhere, once the game gets boring it gets shelved in favour of the next :)

    DeV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 692 ✭✭✭eoin2nc


    Got the full 1000 points in Fifa 06 RTWC and Pro Evo 6. Loves them football games I do:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,324 ✭✭✭chrislad


    Have a few.

    Fight Night 3 was my first one as I got the game with my 360 when I bought it.

    Think I have about 15 or so.

    Superman Returns
    TMNT
    FIFA: RTWC
    NBA 2K6
    NHL 2K6
    Oblivion (not including Shivering Isles)
    Lost: Via Domus
    Bully: Scholarship Edition
    Avatar
    FIFA Street 3
    Spider-Man: FoF
    CSI: Hard Evidence
    Golden Axe (Arcade)
    Blazing Angels
    Madden 2006
    Open Season
    Fuzion Frenzy 2
    Cloning Clyde (Arcade)
    Enchanted Arms
    X-Men 3
    King Kong

    Out of those, only Oblivion, Superman Returns and Bully required effort above and beyond though. I generally seem to just get around 50% of the points, and don't go into them too much. I'm a bastard for getting games on sale and having them hanging around. I've Golden Compass, Harry Potter, LotR: BfME, Hour of Victory, Ratouille, Hitman, Splinter Cell, Beowolf, Eternal Sonata and a few more which I've had for ages, and never got around to completing them properly. I'm waiting for a drought!

    Get a life - stop trying to boast you have 70k points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 963 ✭✭✭chavezychavez


    Only have the grand in COD4, but I won't be going out of my way to get it again in a game. Especially when there's online events to be done.

    Prefer to take a game on its merits and play it through for the enjoyment.

    As for getting 5 achievement points for spending half your youth, collecting all the multi-colored rabbits, that have only 1 eye, and run left only on a Sunday - A quick note to game developers. This does not increase playability of a game - Cut it out and leave the achievement point related to gameplay.
