Yeah, some achievements are just utter bullshit. Like the bullshit tournament qualifier on PGR3, which requires you to qualify for an online tournament (Which usually have very hard lap times to beat just to qualify) and play in the tournament. Since PGR4 came out there are no tournaments on PGR3. So that achievement is now unachievable.

Those kind of achievements annoy me because it's time exclusive. Don't get me started on the SS rank on Dead or Alive. That's just ridiculous.

I like achievements too, they do add some replay value just to get more stuff unlocked. Some of them are pointless because in RE5 you get one just for equipping a weapon, but some are more time consuming like buying all the weapons, I would do that anyway even if it wasn't an achievement.

Well, I like achievements/trophies. It's stupid to buy a game for no other reason than to get them, but if I can do it for free, then why the hell not. It's not like I have anything productive to do with my free time. (Which is a damn lie, but I've been in a "Don't want to do anything meaningful with my life" groove for quite a freaking while now.)
