If you're in the need for a quick Gamerscore boost, then look no further than the rental shelves and a child friendly game called Avatar The Last Airbender: The Burning Earth (that's one long title). This game is a Gamerscore whore's dream, because you can not only get all 1000 Gamerscore with little effort, but it literally takes less than two minutes to do so. We're serious, just look at the game's pitiful achievements. All you'll have to do is pretty much run into a corner, tap the B button about fifty times and in around two minutes you've got yourself 1000 Gamerscore. The hardest part will be surviving the game's awful cut-scenes, but you're a trained Gamerscore warrior, so we think you'll be fine.

Not since launch when the 2K games and EA Sports games had 5 achievements for an easy 1000.

Yes, but King Kong was a launch title and had some level of entertainment.

Ah sorry! I was just saying that this might be one of the worst games in videogame history!
I actually think the developer did this on purpose so at least some (stupid a$$) achievement whores would go out and rent/buy this game!
Cheers

i don't see why people would play these terrible games just to get gamer points. Does the size of your ePeen really make you the cool kid on your friends list?
i am guilty of going straight for the gamer points when i get a game, but thats just because it gives me something to aim for in games in an age where most games don't have leaderboards or scoring.

I am somewhat of an achievement whore, but more in the sense of taking great pride in the difficulty of my games' achievements. Anyone who plays this for the 1000 is a pretty boring person.
Fun first, gamerscore second!!!!

you guys are all taking this way too far. If someone wants to use this to get an easy 1000, then what's the big deal? If I'm ever at the video store and see this game on the shelf, there's a possibility I might grab it just to get the points. And I won't be ashamed of it, because it's not like I'm cheating somehow to get the points.
Maybe after I do that, I'll have no one left on my friends list because I played a game for some easy points. Oh teh No's!

@People threatening to delete people from their friend list for playing this game:
If you're willing to delete someone from your friend list because they have played this game, why are they on your friend list in the first place?

@19 I could understand deleting a person but even going as far as filing a complaint and giving them bad rep.? that's just going too far.No wonder the rep. system is so messed up,for the fact that people like you give bad rep. for the most dumbest reasons.Plus you're wasting Microsofts time by making them review your complaint,let them go after the REAL cheaters/hackers.

I can't say I really achieved anything by just playing a game for easy points.
I'll stick to playing and achieving points to games that I like, thank you.

That has got to be the most unimaginative list of achievements I've ever seen in a 360 game. Even if the title is just for the younger set, I think little kids can do more than button mash.
Now if you want to see an awesome list of achievements, just look at Guitar Hero III.

Nope Ren, I didn't. I actually updated my gamertag spreadsheet on Saturday as I added a lot of friends Thursday night and Friday morning. I'm at 99 friends on my friends list, so I figure I'll have to start eliminating some of them soon enough...So best keep track of who I have.
However, even if I didn't have a copy, I know the 10-15 gamers that I play with most often and that I'm good friends with, so it wouldn't matter either way. lol

He he he, deleting friends for getting easily points. I wonder, why not delete friends for playing King Kong? Really, they are points, and the whole point of them is to show you meat up with a challenge put in front of you. If the developer puts something like this in front of you, they it's THERE fault making it so easy. So people go out and unlock them in a few minutes, nothing wrong with the person in my book. Heck, I played Shrek the Third partly for achievements. I enjoyed it, but still. I played King Kong ONLY for the achievements. I tell people I did that when they ask, and no one cares as long as I didn't cheat the system. I don't want to cheat the system unless I didn't get something the right way. Like the play 5 in Spyglass Board games. I would so cheat the system for that, I played with a friend who never played before, he got it and asked why I didn't. Long discussion about that one.

At 39...
Not even close. Some of the older sports games you could get their entire achievement list in ONE GAME. How long does one game of college hoops take? 2 hours? CSI actually required you to have a brain also...
Nevertheless once it drops in price I'll get both of these and send the kids one to my cousin once I'm finished with it. Sloppy seconds ftw...
I really hope this news wasn't too late to make the podcast...I know Knuckles will say something funny about it...

oh and Im probably double posting but sorry....at 38:
GH3's achievements were awesome, until the news came out that you could glitch nearly every one of the more difficult ones.
And I'm sure even more glitches are in store for that game...eventually you'll probably be able to get 1000 GS without doing much of any work!
