Murphy Nox Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 This has probably been brought up before by somebody, but don't you think you should be able to use the achievements you've unlocked as Gamer Pictures? If you don't get what I mean, its the picture next to your achievement! The number of Gamer Pictures you can use is really varied unless you want to pay for them, which I think is a waste of money. I bet there is a lot of people who would like to use their picture on an achievement they've unlocked as their Gamer Picture! I know that Mass Effect has unlockable Gamer Pictures when you complete it on Hardcore and Insane (the Hardcore one is awesome) but that isn't really much to be honest, sounding greedy now... Please view your opinions on this, it would be really appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evo Kazz Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I know exactly what you mean, I really wish I could use the Serial Killer achievement picture on The Condemned 2 for a Gamerpic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molneze3 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I've always wondered that too. Seems like you should be able to, i mean, you did do the work to unlock it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1D1OUS Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I suppose M$ haven't let us do this as they wont earn any money out of us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruthless Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I must have seen around 10 threads exactly the same as this now!!! @ Sidious - Your getting poned dude, sort it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santa Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I was just thinking of this. I suppose it's a good idea, and some pictures look really nice, but others aren't that good. Ask Microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkerktm Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Yea i really wish this MS made this option available. There are some gamerpics that you unlock during games, most of these are the same images on the achievements. Also, you can get some achievements pictures in gamerpicture packs such as Skate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi18 Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I want my Portal one...it would kick ass. Good idea though, it would be awesome. PS: Use the search bar next time, it HAS been brought up many times before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otisbum Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 It'd get pretty chaotic to have one for every achievement (even if you've got a lowly 380-something like me). My suggestion was that they make it so we can use the game's picture as a gamerpic once we fully complete it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xK1NG L30N1DASx Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 Yes i think you should be able to use them but ONLY if you've unlocked the achievement though. iw ould probably do mile high club as a sign that ive actually done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CORPSE CRISIS Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 It'd get pretty chaotic to have one for every achievement (even if you've got a lowly 380-something like me). My suggestion was that they make it so we can use the game's picture as a gamerpic once we fully complete it. yes i agree..my opinion is that u should earn achievement pics into gamerpics by wether they are aquired by killing 10000 people in gears of war to get a hard well earned to show off achievemnt gamerpic or by just simply taking and donating money to buy microsoft points and actually buying the desired pics u want...and also i dont want a bunch of crappy gamerpics wasting the hardrive space anyway.

Otisbum Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 The option to delete individual gamerpics (from downloaded packs) straight from the choice menu would be nice too. Some of mine show up blank, and others I could never see myself using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-ToXiN- Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 YES! Many achievement pics would make great gamerpics, like someone mentioned already, COD4 Mile High Club or Condemned 2 or Mass Effect ones... But itll never happen. It would pretty much kill buying pics for $ on the marketplace, so that would mean less $ for Micro$oft, and we all know what they are about.... Its a great idea ive wondered about many times before, but itll never happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAHsu Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I agree that we should be able to just use the achievement picture as a gamerpic. Have it so that when you unlock the achievement it also unlocks the same gamerpic icon too. Or have it so you can buy "Achievement" Picture packs for games.

gatorbait Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 MS would be smart if they made this move. There are certainly a good number of achievement pictures that would make great gamer pics. This would also provide us with a lot more free gamer pics so we don't have to pay for those silly things anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royle Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Yeah this is a good idea, Otis is right that everything would get a bit cluttered up. I still think you should be able to choose a gamerpic out of the achievements, rather than Microsoft stealing our points for 'shite' ones. I would have Mile High as mine as it's my proudest one to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucent Beam Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I think that'd be a great idea. There are some really cool achievement pictures that I would use as my gamer picture if I had the option. The reason I don't think that they'd implement this though is $$$$$. If achievement pictures could be used, I bet the profit from people buying gamer pictures would go down. That loss of money would probably end up reason enough to keep the system like it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M85A21 Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 I must have seen around 10 threads exactly the same as this now!!! @ Sidious - Your getting poned dude, sort it out. Throw me into that 100K race mate Anyway, I've always wanted Achievements as Gamerpics, like the One Man Army one. Or Clusterluck from GoW. Anyone from Fatal Inertia, JOKE!

Ruthless Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Throw me into that 100K race mate Anyway, I've always wanted Achievements as Gamerpics, like the One Man Army one. Or Clusterluck from GoW. Anyone from Fatal Inertia, JOKE! Ok dude ill add you to the sig, but as your in the GS league your be boosting alot so you SHOULD win. Atleast i wont come last. I did ask if you wanted in, in your own thread. You should go to all games and say GoW and click the achievement you got say, boom shot 100 kills for example and press Y to add as gamerpic, so it doesnt get all cluttered as stated before. So add it from all games. Good idea??? However there never do it as there lose money so this thread is pointless like all 20 of the exact same thing.
