ok, so i was thinking about this.......

do people get achievements for either fun, or for record?

what i mean is: do people get them because of fun, that it is kinda funny to see that little thing pop up for something epic you just did, or you get them because you want to brag about them and your gamerscore, like some jerk did to me yesterday on live?

what do you think?

(P.S. i, personally, am more of the fun type. i love it when that little thing pops up when i did something new and cool.)

    Some of both actually. There was a time when I really wanted to get them, but now I don't really care so much. There are some accomplishments out there that are greater than achievements. Take these for example:

    -3 heart run in any Zelda game
    -Prestiging in any COD game (takes time)
    -Collecting everything in Demon's Souls
    -Getting all the endings in Chrono Trigger
    -Speed runs in most video games

    Not everything has to be about getting achievements/trophies. To some, it is life but to others it is not as important. Take your pick.

    I do it more as a fun type of thing, but I also do it cause I feel like if I get all or at least most of the achievements I got the most out of the game that I could. The whole gamer score thing doesn't mean anything to me really... I have a higher one mainly just cause I've had my Xbox since launch and my parents don't know what to buy me for xmas/b-days so they just give me a few games so mines pretty high just cause I've played a lot of games not cause I go psycho crazy for points.
