achievement points questions

Post by michaelarby » Sat Jun 12, 2010 7:07 pm

bit of a trivial question hereregarding achievements- on the xbox 360 dash you can see your total achievement points besides the total number available from all your games. unfortunately this also includes the achievements from premium dlc which i havnt bought- totalling some 5450 potential points. is there any way to adjust the figures so that it doesnt show the points which i cant actually obtain?
Also- how do i delete the games which i dont have any points for from my list?

cheers

You can't adjust the total possible points available afaik, and I think's it's a pretty straightforward method to delete your 0 achievement games, although I can't remember how I did it myself.
Let's go to the mall!

Look at the game you want to delete in the library and press 'X'.

To delete 0 points games press the guide button and go to your Achievements list - scroll to the game you want to remove and press X (the option should appear along the bottom of the screen).

Dunno about removing premium content points from your potential score, I doubt it though.

I've often thought (as a cheapskate silver member) that your achievements score should be split into online/offline for similar reasons to yourself - in effect none of the online points are available to me. But hey, that's never going to happen either :wink:

Not true, I have got 1000/1000 on Resident Evil 5 but because I did it after the DLC it counts it as unfinished. I got the 1000/1000g on Burnout Paradise before the DLC and that counts, but I am sure if I boot up BOP now it would say I needed to buy the DLC to get it complete. I think they do this so you buy the DLC to get the extra achievements.

Likewise, GTA IV will show a potential for 1500 points even if you haven't got the DLC.

My friend brought round crappy FIFA 2010. We only played it for about twenty minutes but that was long enough for the game to give me an achievement, so now I can't get rid of it :(
