Queuing long into the night, with their pre-order receipts clutched feverishly, these gamers know that they are in for a treat once they finally get their hands on a copy of such an illustrious title. This ... is not such a game. In fact, it is so far at the opposite end of the spectrum that it would be impossible to even know it existed if it weren't for the horrified screams you'll hear echoing into the night whenever some poor unfortunate decides to play it. At least that's what the friendly policeman said when he knocked at my door.
The appeal of this game is hard to fathom. As surely it can have only been made for seven year old girls who long to own a horse of their own, obviously mum and dad have decided that buying a computer game is EXACTLY the same as having the real thing. It would save a massive amount of expense, that is true, but I can't see this game standing in for the real thing for very long. Perhaps some kind of role play is in order - imagine I'm a seven year old girl (I've been called worse)..."

For Prison break his comments: " after about 8 hours and a couple of playthroughs, you will have the full 1000 points."
So how come it's easy?
Rest i've already played except for one or 2
I wouldn't want to play terrible games to increase a number. I do like collecting achievements, but why spend your money on a terrible game when you could buy a better game, enjoy it more and still get the achievements even if it takes you a little longer or a little more effort.
The only game on that list I would get would be King Kong, I played it on the PS2 when it was released and I enjoyed it, the rest of them you can forget it.

At the same time, a large community of Achievement-Enthusiasts will play just about anything to hear that sacred “Ba-Bloop” from their TV. The point is, bad games exist in an overwhelming quantity and eventually you're going to regret time you spent on one of them. Though not everyone has played the following titles, they are of the most notable and overall gamers would prefer to keep these of their list of played games."
I would put DOA Xtreme 2 at number 1. Plus everyone plays promotional games because they're cheap, silly and fun.
N4G is all jacked up right now. Approval points are still being fixed for members. Half the things don't work. You can't use search or the site crashes. I miss the old site.
I know a lot of people that played Avatar just to get the 1k gamer points in about 10 min.
