Original Xbox titles that have achievements?

Post by PGchris »

I just found out that Halo 2 has achievements, are there any other original Xbox games that have them? I know there are a bunch of people on this forum that don't care at all about achievements but I kind of like em.

Um I'm pretty sure any game you buy off Live thats an Xbox Original will have new achievements.

You sure that's not just for the Windows version? I just played through Halo 2 on the 360 (off a disc) and there were no achievements...

Like Ryan said, I think you have to buy the game off of live in order to get the achievements. That means that physical copies won't do you any good in this matter, which is irritating.

No Xbox games, whether they are physical copies or from the 360's Marketplace, have achievements. However, Halo 2 was ported to PC under Games for Windows - Live, and all Live games are required to have achievements. However, there are also just Games for Windows games, as well, which won't nessesarily come with achievements. You'll have to check the border on the top of the box, or even the back of the box.

So PC Bioshock won't get you achievements, but Geand Theft Auto IV will, for example. Makes sense?

Hope it helps.

no xbox originals have ach. including the ones you can download through live. It was probably from the pc version of the game.
