Great post, and I agree completely with your overall point.
Unfortunately, as you can imagine, to some people being "better than everyone else" is their version of fun somehow, and as such people feel more inclined to play catchup.

Personally, I couldn't give a fuck about Achievment points. But you have some really good points in there :) Topsauce for you!
Have you been reading my brain and college work? :]
As I used the exact same image for my work, and my very first gaming name was The Ace, I actually used to post Ace (lower letters) on arcade machines. First time I used it not on an arcade I think was Worms Armageddon on PC or Felon 11-79 on PS1.

gah Achievements are like the bane of my 360 experience and yet one of the best things about the console.
I'm finding at the moment on GTA4 that half of my enjoyment is messing about, killing shit and constantly trying to get away from the cops on as many stars as possible but the other half is chasing achievements which are actually making me play the game to it's fullest. I really feel like i'm getting my money's worth by doing the side missions I probably wouldnt bother with otherwise.
Also if I really like a game and get immersed in it I feel compelled to get 100% gamerscore to publicly show my commitment to a game I think rocks.
