The most hardcore thing that any video game magazine has ever done, IMO.

I just think that achievements miss the mark these days...single player achievements seem mostly pointless and there really isn't any tangible reward for getting them, and multiplayer achievements cause people to act like morons.
For example...while playing through L4D, it was fun reading the achievements as I randomly got them...but I didn't go out of my way to get them nor did I get any reward for getting them so at the end of the day who really cares about the achievements in L4D?
Much more satisfying was trying to get a gold on survival mode.
