Earlier today, Bizarre Creations decided to share Project Gotham Racing 4's achievements with everyone and give a little back story to how they were decided upon. Learning from their PGR 3 days, Bizarre opted to make PGR 4's achievements a little more varied, less focused on difficult to obtain achievements and more fun in general. Our favorites include "Buy an Achievement", "Back it Up!" and "Beat Bizarre" where you have to beat a member of the Bizarre Creations dev team in an online game or someone who has already done so. Also, there are a few secret achievements thrown in for good measure like the "3CZV657" achievement, DeLorean anyone? Complete list, explanation and attached Gamerscore for all of PGR 4's achievements is available after the jump.

Why is no one else angry about the fact that you have to buy an achievment. THIS IS OUTRAEOUS!!!

Yeah... buy it with kudos points. Easy mistake.

O wow, that was a big mistake but to be fair it does not say it in the post, only in the pic.

The Delorean is a car listed in a screenshot you can find on IGN or Teamxbox

I would guess that the 3CZV657 achievement is unlocked by clocking exactly 88mph on one of the speed camera runs. In a DeLorean maybe ;)
As for the other secret achievements? "Tonight Make Me Unstoppable" is a lyric from The Prayer, by the band Bloc Party. No idea what the achievement could involve though. Is the song on the soundtrack?

"Buy an Achievement
Buy the K1,000,000 gamer picture to earn this Achievement."
Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but any game that ties 100% completion to putting more money in the developer's wallet is total and absolute horse manure.

Dave and Root: My thoughts exactly.

one correction dave:
From the list itself, one of our favourites is the previously mentioned "Buy an Achievement". This which is given to those players who save up all of their in-game Kudos and use it to buy the most expensive item in the shop: the K1,000,000 gamer picture. Not only do you get points, but you also get an image for your profile which proves that you officially have more Kudos than sense!

sorry for the third post in a row, but root, it appears the achievement is for the Single Player leaderboard, which i view as meaning offline

Buying achievements? Bad, bad idea.

People need to *read*.
Posted: Sep 11th 2007 5:49AM (Unverified) said
Yes everyone moaning about 'buying' an achievement needs to actually *read* the article. You buy this in-game using KUDOS. Not Gamerpoints.
Posted: Sep 11th 2007 8:54AM (Unverified) said
Even if these people do think buying it with kudos is bad, you get some gamerscore for buying other things in game (cars in PGR3). Plus if you are thinking this is real money how does K1,000,000 sound like a real price?
Posted: Sep 11th 2007 9:27AM (Unverified) said
ugh... you may want to update the article and note in big bold print that you 'Buy an Achievement' with IN-GAME KUDOS!!!!!! before other blogs and sites start spinning this information incorrectly as many have already done in the comments.
This achievements is no different than Forza 2 where I have to buy every car in the game 'WITH IN GAME MONEY' to get all of the manufacture achievements.

so is this achievement tied to a "fake" "single player" "offline" leaderboard of made-up drivers that you just have to top?
