About

Xbox 360 achievements are a feature on Xbox LIVE, an online multiplayer gaming delivery service created and operated by Microsoft Corporation. They are comprised of game-specific challenges which award the player with points so as to increase their Gamerscore (G), which basically just ranks how good of a gamer the player is.

Due to the difficulty of unlocking several achievements and the absurdity of what several achievements are called, it wouldn’t have been long until people started parodying these achievements OTI and on the Xbox 360 just for fun. It is often difficult to differentiate real Xbox 360 achievements to fake ones, but some fakes are blatant enough to tell apart from the real achievements.

Origin

Technology-Ninja (AKA schrankmonster), an Xbox-related media blogging site, uploaded an Xbox 360 achievement generator on their site on January of 2007. Sites like Technabob and DigitalBattle started noticing this, spreading the knowledge of the existence of this generator on the internet.

Fake achievements appearing on the Xbox 360 can simply be explained by hacking.

Spread

The meme has appeared on several sites such as eBaum’s World, deviantART, and Photobucket.

Thanks, Tomberry. Though, I feel like I rushed through it and missed a few important things.

I’m all for this being achievements in general. TF2 and L4D achievements are very common as well.

Well, I’ve never come across any Fake PS3 Trophies. Perhaps, if you guys can supply some examples I’ll rework on the entry. For now, it’s staying as it is.

There are tons of these out there on the interwebs; If a game has achievements, there will be spoofs.

Take World of Warcraft for example. The achievement system was implemented with the expansion pack Wrath of the Lich King, so theirs are still fairly new, but there are still generators for them. I’ve usually only seen them in signatures on MMO Champion in the forums.

Very exploitable, there are fake achievements for games like Left 4 Dead, too.

@ Jane

Well, you if you want, you can go ahead and make a separate article for those kinds of fake achievements. I’ve decided to keep this article as it is.
