So, supposedly Microsoft is going to announce they will discontinue xbox live services for the 360 by the end of the year. Is there any proof to this? I have a shit ton of games I still want to beat and I'm concerned that I won't get any of the achievements. Will those still work at least?
Better play those games now anon
Yeah dude. You never have to be online to get those.
Why the fuck do people care about achievements? I have never understood this part of modern gaming.

I guess I could see like 10 years ago when the consoles were new but damn

No that would be stupid because they support the Xbox 360 games on Xbox One

Source, other your ass?
They won't do it for a long time because the backward compatibility support.

Xbox one allows you to compare with friends. Never really cared myself, but holy shit is my overall score low!

I'll try and find the article. It was talking about how several providers like espn are pulling their apps sooner than later. I believe theirs had been removed already.

How would they upload to your account though if you're offline?

But who cares? I have never given a fuck about an account score or achievements on anything, from Steam to XBL. I've also never once had a single person, either in real life or in chat bring up either my or their score/achievements.
Its like points on NES games. Not a single person ever gave a fuck about their score in shit like Super Mario, and again, I've literally never heard anyone bring it up in any sort of conversation.
I mean, do people actually give each other shot or internet high fives for not having/having enough achievements?
I've seen YouTube videos about which games have the easiest achievements and give out the most points, and a lot of them are shit games. So I have to assume that there are people out there that buy garbage games and sit through them just to farm internet points. Why?

why would they stop live when idiots are still paying for the overpriced gold membership?

I suppose that is true. You need to connect online to actually unlock them and update the profile.

For enjoyment. That's why people play games.
I don't give a fuck about achievements either but are you honestly claiming they're enjoying games incorrectly?
