whats the best place to go nowa days? im finding the new staff on x360a or just xbox achievements are lacking they just kinda write it up pretty briefly

what im looking for is basically a guide like the ones x360a used to make
where its basically gives you a run down ect
but than lists off okay
act 1 you should get x,y,z achievement
ac 2 ect ect.


looking for witcher 2 right now because so damn many achievements are missable and i cant find something decent to go off.

for an actual guide xboxachievements is still probably best,you just usually have to go into the forum of the game to find it,rather then the "achievement guide" part of the page.

Trueachievements is a great site and is all about stats.They have walkthroughs for alot of games now which are great guides as well and ive been a member of the site for almost 5 years now

Nope.

TrueAchievements is best. Xbox even made a deal with them and linked their system Achievement app to their name on XB1. By far it has better solutions, a better layout, and an interesting formulaic system that gives a secondary score to each achievement based off of how many people were able to unlock it out of those registered to have the game.

they're decent if you want a run down but i find alot of times i get 3/4 down the post and they will have a oh hey kill 5 people with x on act one.

rather than listing on exactly what needs to be done per mission/act/level ect. sometimes they do it just depends on whom writes the guide but it used to be every single guide was done like that..

im quite aware how it works as ive been on the site since before it was popular and have been in the sites scoring competition(GTASC) for 4 years now and almost won it 2 years ago.I still go to xboxachievements to look at an actual guide on the forums before playing a game.I go to trueachievements for specific achievements,boosting sessions and all of that.But in terms of a guide usually xboxachievements is better in giving a rough idea of how hard it is how long it takes etc etc

I do agree with you about everything else though,its just that a specific "guide" like 672 is asking for they haven't don't a great job at.Although they are getting better
