COD 4,5 and 6 are easy to get over 500, the rest are a challenge. SAW the videogame will give you over 900 on 1 playthrough on easy! Prince of persia classic is another easy xbla game where you can get 175 pretty much on 1 playthrough. Also COD classic is an easy 170. I bagged all 1750 for halo 3, almost took me 2 years!

Great game and by far the best of its genre but the achievements are sick. 1 of them is to gold star 20 songs on expert!! if you've ever played the game then you know its impossible. but even that is still onl worth about 25 Gs or something.

Mass Effect is an awesome game, but litterally takes at least 4 playthroughs to get most of the achievements.

No list can ever cover every game ever made. As for people commenting on some that should be moved from the easy to hard list, or hard to easy - some games are more dependent on particular player skills. The majority of this list is a compendium of what was discovered on dozens of other Easy/Difficult achievement lists on other pages, forums, and blogs. Thus, they should generally reflect an overall assessment of which achievements are harder or easier than others. Clearly everything won't be true for everyone, and lambasting is a waste of everyone's time. And as for the comments on games that are good or bad, I'm glad people are so vocal. Being judgmental based on differing opinions is, however, quite stupid. Fact is, people have different tastes...

I actually managed to get all 1000 points in one weekend. Just get the Lazer Pistol on your first playthrough, then you can walk through the rest of the game unharmed. Then just acquire all the secret weapons and each of the endings and you get all the achievements. You’re wrong on Silent Hill Homecoming. I actually managed to get all 1000 points in one weekend.

Basically, if you don't do EVERY SINGLE SIDE-QUEST, you'll miss out on at least 500 points, and the side quests are time-sensitive, with a few of them being frustratingly hard if you don't know how to build your party in the best way possible. Don't get me wrong, I still liked the game a great deal, but it just pissed me off how I beat the game and managed around 200+ points for it. :/ The Last Remnant had some of the worst achievement setups I’ve seen in a long time.
