Rumor: Microsoft Thinking About Non-Gaming Achievements?

Microsoft recently sent out a survey asking gamers how they feel about Achievements. Towards the end, one of the questions asked how you would feel about certain Achievement types. One of the options is fairly interesting.

Providing Achievements for non-gaming uses of your Xbox 360 (e.g., “The Film Buff: You’ve watched 50 DVD’s”)

It looks like Microsoft may be guaging interest to see if people would like Achievements to spread into other areas of their digital life. I’m not that big into Achievements or Trophies anyway, so I could care less. If they do implement something like this, though, there should definitely be something for having gone through 10 RRoD’s like I have. How about 20k Gamerscore points for that one?

My life is over!!!!!

omg say good bye to marungo cause if he can get achievements from watching movies...... "CHELLOOO!! WHERES THE POPCORN!!!!! I NEED MORE ACHIEVEMENTS ONLY 10 MORE MOVIES AND WE CAN PLAY SCENE IT?!!!"
