My name is Brian and I’m addicted to achievement points

I can’t deny it any longer.

I have all the telltale signs.

I have Avatar: The Last Airbender on my Gamefly queue.

I’m working on mathematical equations as to how to kill 53,000 zombies on Dead Rising and 53,000 infected on Prototype.

Sometimes it’s the simple things in life that are oh-so satisfying. I don’t even know why that little “plink” noise and the words “Achievement Unlocked!” make my heart sing, I just know that they do. High scores have been around as long as gaming has but Microsoft has come up with a unique way to put them front and center.
