    Achievements are extra challenges added into video games that sometimes carry a point value or unlock bonus material, and are sometimes solely for bragging rights.

    Gamerscore doesn't end in a 0 or a 5

    Hey does anyone know a Xbox 360 game that gives an achievement worth either 3Gs or 8Gs?

    I think Half-Life 2 on the Orange Box has a couple odd-numbered achievements, and so does Super Puzzle Fighter.

    Forza 2.  I got one for 2pts. I'm sure it evens out in the end.

    If the reason your score is fucked up is because you got the 2 point achievement for playing basketball with D0g, you'll need to get the Vorticough achievement to balance it out. There's a video up on YouTube showing where you can get it.

    My gamerscore was 2s and 7s for the longest time.  I didn't notice I was approaching 31337 and passed it.  Probably better that I didn't hit it because I would have wanted to stop there.  Now I'm back to 0's and 5's.

    I love it when my gamerscore doesn't end in a 5 or a 0. It looks so much cooler than a boring 5 or 0

    Mine either ends in a 1 or 6 because of some Mortal Kombat achievement and I never felt like going back to do a babality online to even it out.

    Civ Rev has some really easy odd points.  I know that Joint Strike: 1942 had two 7G achievements.

    Both great games to fix your score have been listed. (By "great" I mean, good to fix your score. Both suck.)

    Not to sound rude, because I am very rude, but not really. Obviously he could have looked at an achievement website but even then, a majority of games have "even" achievements. It's hard to find those fudged-up ones.

    Correct me if you want, feel free, by linking me to a successful Google search.

    Civilization Revolution has a bunch of 3-point achievements, and a lot of them can be gained in the first mission.

    Truth be told, just get another odd achievement in Orange Box, like HandsomeDead said. Why start another game when chances are you might not even get the desired achievement.

    Yeah, that is a big one. Forza 2 comes to mind. Blitz: The League had several achievements that were worth like 6 achievement points.

    My gamerscore always ends in a 2 or a 7 (I like it, it's unique) because of the Two Point achievement on Half-Life 2 on The Orange Box. If you have the game it's a pretty easy and even a pretty fun achievement to get.

    I went ballistic when my score went out of whack thanks to WoTB Commando 3, I was going insane trying to get the others but I just couldnt. Then I fucked it up with some football game by accident, and in the end, had to buy UMK3 and get all but the last online wins achievement in order to balance it back out.

    I had a non 0/5 at the end of my gamerscore for about a year. In the end it drove me insane, so I bought Mortal Kombat 3 off of XBLA. Got the 2 hit combo achievement, fixed my gamerscore. Never played that game again.


    I wish there was some kind of rule where achievements have to end in a 0/5...

    @Fudge_Wirlwind: Well if you get the other odd-point achievement in The Orange Box, it won't be odd anymore. There is one 2-point achievement and one 8 point achievement in the game. If you get both, you would even it out.

    As of yesterday, my gamerscore is no longer divisible by 5. UMK3 has thrown it off course, but I intend to get all the achievements in that game to remedy the problem.
