The lights are on
I wouldn't consider myself a perfectionist or a completionist, but there is one thing on my Xbox that aboslutely drives me nuts and I can't get rid of....achievements. I know I know..who wants to delete achievements? You worked your ass off to get them! Well, believe it or not I wish I could delete achievements.
I'm not saying I wish to delete all achievements, but on occasion I rent a game that I thought might be good or I was just too bored and didn't feel like playing anything else. I find out the game is awful, but alas it is too late..you have unlocked one achievement and are now doomed.
I will never finish these select games that I only unlocked one or 2 achievements for and it just sucks that I can't get rid of them. I would stop the game before I unlock an achievement, but you don't always know when the first achievement is going to be unlocked. It's not like I would be adding to my score by deleting them, but it would look a little cleaner.
Now I guess there is an up side to not being able to delete unlocked achievements..I will never accidentally delete achievements that I actually DO want to keep. I would feel heartbroken If I deleted my entire history of Oblivion achievements or all the Dragons Age achievements I unlocked. I won't ever have to worry about someone bringing their kids over and one of them deleting everything I worked my butt off for (not that I would EVER let that happen).
Anyway..thanks for listening GIO community, just felt like a little ranting! Please post comments and/or opinions! :)
Good point. The fact that one can't remove them seems, well, strange. I don't recall if deleting game data on the PS3 removes trophies or not, though it should imo. In any event, I'm glad I'm not obsessed with achievements/trophies like SOME people are. ;)
I totally agree! Especially on the PS3, where you are forever left with a 0%... Maybe some day this will happen.
