Post 10 - GTA 4 PC

The GOOD

Hi, I have finally completed GTA IV PC on Monday :), but have not got around to posting till now. It took me 45 hours to get all the single player achievements which I think is like 25hours quicker then what It took me on Xbox 360 (As I know what I'm doing). Here are the pictures:


The BAD

Now here's the main reason I gave this its own post, is because if you have noticed this or not some of my achievements for this game are out of order :(. This is due to the achievement servers not being fully sync with the game meaning the achievements will pop up but they will not add to your Gamerscore :( (Like what happen to the Fallout 3 DLC). What annoys me even more is the fact that some of the main story achievements did not unlock and I did not know about it at the time, as I would have stop playing it and waited for it to be fixed.

After the achievements had been sync, Lucky I had some saves for some of the achievements, but for others I had to replay most of the game to get them :( which is why I left getting the 100% achievement for so long as I got really bored of the game + pissed off.

The UGLY

So this don't happen to you make sure when you’re playing a PC Gamerscore game to check that the Gamerscore for each achievement has added to your Gamertag if it did not stop playing the game and wait 5 months for Microsoft to sort they stupid servers out. It may be even wiser to wait 5 months before playing any new PC Gamerscore game. I can’t believe Microsoft does not make sure the achievements are sync with the games before they release them :( specially big titles like GTA 4. I have also heard reports that Street fighter 4 PC also has the same issues and like I said above Fallout 3 DLC had it as well but because it was a Xbox 360 Gamerscore game it had higher priority and got sorted out within 1 week unlike GTA 4 PC 5 months which is retarded.

Anyway enough of my moaning and Thanks for reading :)
