IMO there is no reason to ever pay someone to do an achievement for you. There is also no reason to ever play a game (even if it's free) just for achievement score.

This coming from me
- over 112,000 gs
- over 75 games totally completed including dlc achievements
- 130ish game total w/ 85% achievement completion average

There are occasional games that maybe you got a gift or bought thinking you would like and didn't. They snuck their way into your game history with an achievement or two. Then there are games that will have a few unachievable or just plain retarded achievements. You shouldn't worry about playing games you don't like or playing games once they have lost their fun to you. You just torture yourself by worrying about things like that.


I usually just buy games, beat them, then return them. I wildly abuse GameStop policy. 1k fg is worth like 10 bucks in the donor forum world. I see what you're saying though. I still enjoy all my games I play though. The only reason I am trying to boost right now is to shut a couple of friends up who have had the Xbox for years, and only have 30k

I have no problems with people playing games just for achievements. Some people have fun just raising their gamerscore (same as post count on jsp).
Its when you wont play a game just because (unattainable/too hard to max) that I just truly find stupid.

Why don't you just buy the games online?
Just looked them up and you can get NBA and NHL dirt cheap.

What fun is it to pay people to get the achievement? That would be cheating and pointless/no bragging rights.

The games take 30 minutes for 1000.... Avatar takes 30 seconds for 1000. It is more efficient for me to pay someone fg to people who have the games rather than spend my own money for games that I will literally throw away after I am done.
