Is getting that 1 point to make it 1000/1000 instead of 999/1000 really worth it?

Call me a completionist or maybe its just my OCD but I had to have the full 1k in that game. I hate leaving games unfinished if I can help it.

Plus it brings a smile to my face when i'm comparing games with someone and theirs says 999 and mine says 1000.

It goes to show that you want that extra point no matter how tough it is, it also defies the logic that harder achievements get more points. But I still think it is worth getting that solitary point just for the 1000.

I don't know if I will go for it soon, I still need to do all of the other difficulties first. Wreckon Dracgon's guide should help anyone out with it though.

I wonder what the results would be if it was "Is t worth replaying n entire game to getthe 1000/1000 instead of 999/1000?..

For me it was not really that hard, just was boring going through the game alot.

I have to say yes it is worth it. It is one of the achievements I am proud to say I earned.

One of the things I've always prided myself on is my ability to beat a game on the hardest difficulty. Whether it be Halo on Legendary, Gears on Insane, and heaven forbid, Call of Duty on Veteran (man that was a bitch) i always try to go for it, even if it isn't worth achievement points (if the games actually good). I'm playing through this game on hard on the last level right now, but i plan to push through hell mode when i get there. I love a good challenge! :p

you have to get the last point. 1000 just gives you the sense of completion and satisfaction. Plus if your a perfectionist you also need to. Although the gamer designers are probably laughing at you.

I totally agree that 1 point goes a hell of a way just so it says 1000 makes me happy lol

Points mean very little to me now, meaning my overall score doesn't bother me. Instead I have changed to a completionist, and therefore if I was good at this game (found it fun but I am crapat shooters) I would have probably gone the full 9 yards and completed it on Hell mode.

yes, 1000/1000 means alot to me

plus I don't like having an uneven gamerscore

I don't know...If I get there I decide but I don't think I'll be fighting for 1 freaking point...I got better things to do than that...

Well look at it this way Having 1000/1000 shows something .. and gives you bragging rights that you trolled through the most painfully toughest difficulty for 1 point .. its a pure bragging achievement .. i have it so NA NA NA NA NA :) and i was the very first person on the sites leaderbords with the full 1000 and Number 1 in Canada (don't bother looking on the learderboards on mygamercard cause i changed my tag).. but playing Bulletwitch on hell mode was driving me insane its was so friggin hard .. you died almost instantly , but once i finished it and seen that ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED pop-up i was very very pleased with myself. so i say do it it you want some self-satisfaction !

To each their own I guess, some players are completionists others aren't. But its gamercards like yours which make all those long hours of completing games worth it.

Thanks for making me feel awesome....

Well i like having completed games, so when i see that 1000 or 1250 it looks good plus you can put it in your signature:p I have never played this game before so i dont know how hard it really is.

How crazy and sick are the developers to come up with this idea. The game is on the hardest setting and you get one lousy point. PRICELESS

Most games should have a final 1 point achievement, I really think the point system is flawed

killlah631

I haven't played the game but when I do I definitely will go for the last 1 point achievement. Even though my completion percentage sucks, I just really got into achievements not that long ago so it's not bad for that reason and now I am a completionist...the number of 1000's I have is more important to me than my total gamerscore.

If you are a completionist like a lot of people yes the full 1000 IS worth it. However, if you're a complete gamerscore warlock you would move on to the next game.

I thought it was worth it, then again I really enjoyed Bullet Witch so much I've beaten it like 6 times under a week of owning it XD

Although at same time, I was trying to get 15 hour achievement, although even after I've beaten Hell Mode (Level 3/4 is quite bitch on that mode, thankfully Level 5 is still easy) I don't get it, so I had to play it again (on lower difficulty, ofc - Hard Mode anyway.) and unlocked it after :P

Now I'm done with Bullet Witch, I think I'll just trade it back for something else...^^;;; I've played it 6 times so much I'd be able to remember EVERYTHING in it...*adds it to my 100% completion list*

1000 just looks so much better than 999 and I would much rather have it

Once I get BW I'm going to make sure to get this achievement, just to stick it in other's faces.

I do think that 1 point is worth it, even though it'll mess up my score (like others on here, I hate it when it's not something that ends in 5 or 0, and since I've been unable to get the Mortal Kombat online achievements, finishing off Bullet Witch will throw it off again), just because that 1 point shows insane dedication to this game. I know most people don't like BW, but I love it to death... and I doubt there's many other achievements for so little that mean so much.

After all, you can look at a guy's tag who's got 999, and say "Damn, he's good. Lots of points." Looking at one who's got the full thousand, you can instead say "My god... he has no life. How do you kill something with no life!" ;)

Now I just need to get it back from my friend, so I can actually finish it. :(

Depends on the game, if I like the game so yes worth it, but if I didn't like the game I can leave it at 999, 400 or something that feels ok.

Never played Bullet Witch because it didn't look any good so in this case I would guess not worth it :p

i haven't played bulletwitch but im not really a completionist so i would want the 999 because it looks cooler lol

I dont know if I could just sit there with a 999/1000 knowing I just need one more point to get the full set...but thats me

totally worth it to get the 1000/1000 but the game does start to get very boring after second completion!

I rented this game from gf and will most likely get the last achievement for 1 point. If it left you with 998 that would make my gamerscore even after all this time it's been tainted by graw. Only then would I pass.

KINGxSAINT
11-18-2007, 04:04 PM
Like viva pinata I got 980 and leaving 360 on 40 more hours aint worth the risk to me so I leave it at 980 but 999 just looks weird like it's 1 more point.

11-27-2007, 10:20 PM
I still have yet to complete this game, i just rented it yesterday so I still got to play the other difficultys

mack1983
12-03-2007, 10:32 PM
i think leaving it at 999 looks better, plus completing games 5 times is ridiculous

I got that last point it was mental some of the later levels I didnt even bother shooting anything I just kept doing flips to the next checkpoint.

I think its worth it if your gamerscore doesnt end with a 5 or a 0 after playing this game. I can't stand the idea of having a gamerscore end with a 6 or something.

It's not how many points it's worth, it's about the feeling of accomplishing it. Besides its MORE POINTS!!!! even though its one

im gonna get that 1 point its important.

Hell yes it's worth it as now it's on my 1000GS list. Secondly, if people look at your list and see 999GS on Bullet Witch they'll think one of two things: a) He's not good enough to get 1K or b) He can't be bothered to get the last 1GS. I personally don't want people thinking either one of those things about me so I just stuck it out for the 1K GS.

But everyone's different, it's up to them ^_^.

CrazyenigmaJ
01-19-2008, 02:29 AM
Sure, but I really wish they could have setup it up so hard unlocks all the lower ones. Playing through this game 5 times was kind of boring. Luckily, it wasn't excessively long.

DreadfulCorpse
03-14-2008, 12:17 PM
I don't think it's worth it at all.

03-16-2008, 10:04 PM
I'm really not into the strange numbered achy, so if i could get them both within the same hour, yeah i'd go for it but it would burn my soul if i had 99's attached to my gamerscore for very long. Also why i didn't play GRAW...

Call me a completionist or maybe its just my OCD but I had to have the full 1k in that game. I hate leaving games unfinished if I can help it

im horribly OCD myself but id much rather get the 999 and then use the time i wouldve spent getting 1 stupid point on another game getting a few hundred. 1000 points on 1 game might be impressive... but id rather have 1599 stretched between 2 games in the same ammount of time.

Hell mode is reasonably easy since this is ur 5th time thru , you already know everything, for completionists only, lol If u dont't have a ton of 1000s on your list it's prob not worth your time

DeZmonD88
06-22-2008, 01:28 PM
I like the idea of having uneven points for completing the hardest difficulties, just so we can see if someone has not completed a game on a certain difficulty level by looking at their overall GS.

06-24-2008, 07:49 AM
i wouldnt be able to stand having the 999/1000 for this game.

I like this game too much to leave it, im still working my way though hard so i t wont be long till i get to hell difficultie, soon will have the 999 and aiming for the full 1000.

Lilballer59
06-27-2008, 06:53 AM
Yeah it was worth it!
I cant have a 999. well, no take that back
it looks cool with all the 1000's.
but I did finish this game. All i have to do is the 15 hour one and then its off back to Gameznflix =]

yeah it is worth it if you have put this much time into the game whats another 6 hours!!!!
