The Unachievable Achievement thread

Raskulls-Five Times a Raskull-This will unlock randomly at times, such as winning 2, losing 1 or even winning 18.-No fix.

Glitched: Bejeweled 2

Achievement: One of Puzzle, Action, Classic, Endless

Description: Bejeweled 2 has 4 main modes (Puzzle, Action, Classic, Endless) and an achievement for each. When you reach the requirements for the 4th mode, you should unlock both MultiMode and the expected mode achievement. However, some people only unlock MultiMode.

The other achievement might then be permanently unattainable. I've never read a post by someone who had the glitch happen, then later got the missing achievement.

If you haven't unlocked MultiMode yet: Each Bejeweled 2 achievement has a Congratulations splash screen. It has been suggested that you do not dismiss the screen until both MultiMode and the other achievement pops. You may have to wait several seconds.

Here's a thread about the glitch:

Actually, that one is only obtainable if you win 5 times in one sitting, otherwise the counter resets (apparently).

That would still be considered a glitch, no?

yes there are glitch but shouldn´t this be for all those that is so f***ed that you need to do something speciel like force local server or recover gamertag.

[L0Straniero91]

An achievement that DO NOT unlock exactly when you meet the criteria is GLITCHY! Whenever you unlock it before you meet the criteria or anytime after it!

Some people may say: "Doh! The achievement unlocked before I excpeted, that rocks!" Some others may be pissed off by this, that's the purpouse of this list, so people are aware of achievements that behave completely different that the description says!

The game is probably the glitchest on the 360 regarding achievements. In all likelihood it'll happen by accident to you.

But unlocking those reel ones after the feature is shut down could look very suspicious, no?

Unlocking online achievements whilst offline is also very suspicious but it can happen with this game.

Then I suggest you don't play this game.

Common glitches like that (which can be completely unintentional) will not necessarily get you reset, though they might get you on a watchlist. MS enforcement knows about glitches like that. Despite some people's protestations, one achievement does not spell doom for your gamerscore. There is a threshold of evidence required for a reset, which is actually above a single online achievement unlocked offline (since there are other ways to get that appearence).

[ianke_2002]

this has probably been asked before but im sure some of you are aware of the way of gettigng access to at least one de-listed game (UMK3...maybe more Midway games..i dont know)where a friend of yours who owns the game invites you (who doesnt) to a multiplayer match....and then the game prompts you to download the game. I tried this a few months ago but got scared to download it so i just quit out of it with my friend. The reason why i backed out was because i figured MS would think it was sketchy and didnt want to give them a reason to reset me. My question is basically....is this a legit way to download these titles....or should i jsut stay away?

So if i were to get that game and pop 800g in the space of 30 seconds offline then it would be perfectly fine? I Love little glitches like these but when it involves getting online ones offline it kinda worries me.

For Madden 07, you list the "Draft Class" achievement as being unobtainable in EU. It's not unobtainable at all; you just need to buy an US xbox and the game, which costs money and like a week of time, but anyone seriously involved with achievements will want to do that anyway.

[L0Straniero91]

I left the entry as it was previously!
Maybe we should put a note instead!

[canadabug]

You should keep an eye on the arcade version of Full House Poker. The achievement "Gold Medal Champion Spring 2011" isn't unlocking for anyone from what I have read. Maybe it needs to go into the glitched section until they patch it.

[L0Straniero91]

Yeah seems a very nasty bug, will be adding this on the unachievable section because seems that nobody as got this achievement so far. And no word either for the developers.

Note: I'm gradually adding games to the glitchy section, I decide to put first the most important. You know, browsing on the site searching for them it's quite hard.

I made a thread about a potentially simpler solution in the Madden 07 section but didn't get much of a response, perhaps someone should revisit it and try.

i know...pointless post...but could someone please respond to my post from earlier in the thread?

It might work. In a lot of cases, the game is still on the Marketplace servers, just not available for download. You can actually download Hexic HD if you need to if you deleted it for some reason and can't redownload it. So, you could try, though there is no gaurantee of success (which is why I won't be deleting my Marvel Ultimate Alliance DLC).

For exapmle, that was how a lot of people got games like Raskulls early. It was on the servers, and people were able to download it from the demo with World of Kelflings and sent out multiplayer invites. It isn't sketchy, it just might not work.

I have some of the trial versions and so far only Defender was able to be bought for 400 MS Points.

The other ones I tried were Gauntlet, Paperboy, Root Beer Tapper, and Smash TV.
Edit: I already have UMK3 but I don't see it on the marketplace.

Thanks to whoever posted about this. I think I'm going to buy Defender before it gets delisted again lol.

[L0Straniero91]

After a bit of browsing, I found that the Scenario Master achievement on 50 Cent: Blood in the Sand may GLITCH and forever be unlocked :O
I had to look up to trueachievements in order to find this new!

Dante's Inferno
The Critic
(from DLC Trials of St. Lucia)
Achievement glitched on some people, and didn't unlocked after 100 rated __different__ trials. All you have to do is keep trying until you got it.

[Master SS x360a]

SBK X
Maximum gamerscore: 955/1000
Achievement unobtainable: Extra is more than "normal" 45 G

There is a helmet called Kioko that is unobtainable,so we can't unlocked all the extras and this is the maximum for this game
