Worms:"due to the AI’s unerring ability to drop a grenade on your eye in high-wind conditions."

This guy is a noob. Wind doesn't affect grenades and I never had to dig in to get the achievement.

The lack of Ms. Pac-man on this list is puzzling.

Perfect (30): Eat all ghosts four times within a stage!

Maybe I just needed to try harder, but I usually can't survive long enough to get all 4 of them out. Then when you die, they start over and you have to wait again.

Even getting to level 21 was easy compared to this one...

Do you play games for Gamerscore or for fun?
Sure, it's self-satisfacting to see you've made 1000/1000 or 200/200 (for XBLA), but games must be fun - not some hardcore selfpwnge for those gamerpoints.

3.1 - Completely agreed
But unfortunately, that is what "gaming" is becoming. It's all about your e-Penis.
