Well apparently microsoft was wise to us, and didn't want to give us the achievement in "single play"-- we have to fork over 240 points.
But I didn't want to pay 240 points for armor battle, tennis, football, combat or any other 2 player games because they are stupid and boring.
On the other hand, the games get harder and harder as you progress, making it very difficult to stay in the game for an hour... UNLESS you do this:
Play Astrosmash. Yes, it gets harder and faster as you get a higher score. BUT, you lose points every time you don't shoot a rock.
Level 1 is very easy. Just avoid shooting the rocks and keep your score below 1000 points. Always shoot the white bombs, because if they hit the ground you die, and shoot the guided missiles because sometimes when they hit the ground, they fly horizontally and get you.
Of course if a rock is headed for you and you can't get out of the way, shoot it... and shoot the very slow moving rocks. Try to keep a clear path so you can move quickly if a bomb or missile comes.
Anyway that's how I got it, and it popped after exactly 1 hour, playing in ranked mode.
