More like stats whore
I've seen him playing after his sons in bed playing all the rubbish games like Bejeweled2 and trying to get all the achievements done.
My gamerscore doesn't seem to update.
Worms is driving me mad by the way, can't get past level 5.

i really cant see how you can get to 20,000 points, i'm having trouble cracking a thousand
are they making the achievments to hard now? i just won the 'english league' in pro evo which is takes a fair few hours to complete and got next to no points (10 i think) its just crazy
looks like i'll be rotting down the bottom for near future

It is indeed annoying to have spent a lot of time on an element in a game to then get no reward for doing so. Xbox live arcade titles are the worst for this. You get 20 gamer points for completing astropop with 4 characters which equates to clearing 128 stages for example!
Play games like Tomb Raider I got over 700 points for little over a weekends work (I quite enjoyed the game too).
John Madden is another easy one, I got all 1000 pts in a week after borrowing it and Fight Night from a friend.
I've now just gone back to playing Oblivion, done a few more missions on the main quest (that's another 100 pts, thank you), and hopefully I'll get a few more achievements in either the main or fighters guild quests before too long (if I don't get too side tracked in other quests - currently trying to do the destruction master trainer quests "find 20 bear skins" I'm up to 18 but the last 2 bears are avoiding me (wish I hadn't sold any before I knew I needed them )

King Kong is a desperately easy 1000! Haven't ever played it but I hear it's the easiest on 360 for points. If you like points might be worth a rent.
FIFA gets on my nerves, I've played it to death. There are some stupid achievements. How on earth can I get a defender to win 50 man of the match awards?

Play the Cups on PES6, I got 280 points playing through those last night. Took me about an hour with games on 5 minutes.
As for easy achievement games - http://www.achieve360points.com/list/diff1
When I joined the leaderboard a week and a half ago I was 41st (ie rock bottom). Now I'm 22nd ^_^ Still got Amped, King Kong, PGR3 and Fight Night Round 3 in my collection to play, amongst others.
Ooooh, I'm up to #2 on the Leaderboard, yay for me!
As for the GamerScore discussion, I'm not too fussed about my overall score, it's nice to be 2nd on this Leaderboard and I must admit I felt chuffed when I broke the 10,000 point mark. Pretty slow going mind, I had the 360 at launch.
For me the achievements are all about getting the most out of games you really like. PGR3 had some really tough achievements but I spent ages trying to get them all just because I love the game. If I don't like a game, I won't bother with the achievements.
Anyway, sorry Mr Danger Frog, you're down to #3!
