Played 90-odd games
13000 achievement points.

I've got 1 game completed, and that was an XB Arcade game for 200 points.

Hang about....there's something through this, this square portal that is built into the wall before me...what is this? Sunlight?

I know the feeling
Though with me, its about 35 games, and 14000 odd points. And two completed games, both bought from the XBLA. Sonic 3 and Banjo-Kazooie. Apparently I can't even fully complete any proper X360 games...

Alot of them will only register as done
if you buy and do everything on the add-ons too, which is a bit naughty.

The hightest I've acheived on one title was 1095/1500 for Borderlands, was hellish fun though :D

Some of the achievements are bloody ridiculous and are now impossible to achieve
I almost got 1000/1000 for Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age, but then bloody downloadable stuff came out and I didn't have the money for it...

I didn't really like Borderlands that much, mainly due to the art style, but then again I played it for about five minutes. Should I give it another shot?

It's not for everyone
but there are a few nice bits of the game; it plays similar to WoW more than anything else.

Finished it the once, hit level 50 on the 2nd playthrough. You get some ridiculous guns later on (a revolver that removes the top third of a person was one of my faves lol).

It's better playing it co-op to be honest :)

Really,
unless you're an achievement whore why would you want to max out a game? I haven't maxed a single one, the closest I've come is the excellent Bad Company 2 where I have most of them but the motivation to replay any game on "super ludicrously hard" was killed stone dead by accidentaly playing CoD:WaW on Hardened.

That teeth-grindingly infuriating experience made me vow never to bother with anything other than Normal again and as to collecting 1 million collectables for a 20 point achievement, no fucking way.

I prefer the achievements that make you slave through thousands of collectibles
to the ones (e.g the first two in Assassin's Creed 2) where you get chunks of gamerscore simply for sitting through the opening sequence without pouring beer in the Xbox or hoofing it across the room.

Achievements where you gain a little for a lot of work are disproportionate.

Achievements you cannot avoid getting are retarded.

Spawn/grenade/death
COD:WAW on Veteran was horribly unpleasant. Harder than all of COD4, including the Mile High achievement. Bastard thing left me with gnarled claws for hands afterwards.
