Xbox 360 "Life Achievements" *Humor*
This is from an article in this months GI Mag.


"To Xbox 360 owners, the sound "boop-boop" means a job well done. Those notes accompanying the words "Achievement Unlocked" are a chance for gamers - usually unsuccessful in other areas of life - to feel meaningful. But what if gamers could feel validation in their bleak, everyday lives? Now they can, thanks to Microsofts new Life Achievement system.

Still in the testing phase, this new technology includes a device that clips to your belt, and monitors your actions, rewarding you with Liferpoints for positive accomplishments. "The world is full of things to do!" shouts microsof corporate vice president J Allard. "


The article goes on another paragraph, but I don't feel like typing it out anymore.


Some of MS "Life Achievements" include;

*Taste glue
*Draw a marker-mustache on a passed-out LAN party attendee
*Hold it for two days
*10,000 kills
*Find Hoffa
*Mock Nindendork and Stupid Wii
*Ride Pony
*Vista Installed! :)
*Vista uninstalled! :(
*Kiss friends wife.


I thought this was hilarious.

We should turn this into a game.

List all of the things realistically you could do to get achievements in life.

*Crash your Dad's car

Thats is an example.

Just a suggestion.

The list you posted was hilarious though, I think the best one is "Hold it for Two Days" simply because it's the only one on there that is realistic and takes skill.

Achievement Unlocked: Blew $1,000 at a [Vegas] Strip Club.

This would be a great YouTube video idea. To film a bunch of stuff, and throw in the "achievement" bits.

No doubt... wish some of us lived in closer proximity, as it would make filming the video 1,000 times easier!

I would if I had a VC, but I don't.


It'd be fun/funny seeing what people would come up with...

LMAO... if I remember while visiting my parents this weekend, I will see if I can borrow their camcorder.

Anyone have any ideas for other achievements?
