The closest in ANY game I've come is probably Forza 3, which I think I'm missing 6 Achievements.

Tha's cool enough. Just saying. Especially DLC games. I just finished off Deathspank's Achievements this morning. Considering the last one is just hitting level 20, which I was almost at and would have anyway...Yeah.

I got the last one on Magic The Gathering's most recent expansion by accident. It requires you to win a 3 or 4 player online game. And The first guy quit immediately or was disconnected. The second one quit when it looked like me and the other guy had the advantage. mostly the other guy. Who quit a couple minutes later, even though he had gotten a larger advantage.

Given your GS, I find it hard to believe you didn't go out of your way to get at least a couple of those.

Sidenote, I love getting free achievements/trophies for nothing. Like I just started ass cred 2, I got 20 points for being born and 20 points for casually walking out of the first level.

Yeah, I popped it in with a friend watching because he didn't know if he wanted AC2. He laughed when I got those.

And another 20 for finally starting the regular game. Love it 60 points before seeing the starting credits.

The Simpsons movie game apparently has one for hitting start, BTW.

The most rewarding achievement I ever had was "Dastardly" for Red Dead Redemption. You have to hogtie a female NPC and put her on a traintrack and then watch her die.

It also has the most frustrating one, since "spurred to victory" doesn't always work.

Some random guy who joined my Crackdown 2 game. Should probably just delete him, dunno why I accepted it.

Those are weird, especially if the guy never interacts with you.
