Introduction:
WWE 13 is the latest and the last wrestling games coming to us from THQ. If you are an existing fan of the WWE gaming franchise, you should be able to pick the game up quickly. If you are not, I suggest you play some matches in the exhibition mode, get a hang of the control before jumping into the Attitude Mode or the Universe Mode. The creation suite is as fun and in depth as usual, though Championship Belt Creation feels highly limited. Online play has always been WWE games biggest roadblock, and it does not seem to have improved, which makes the online achievement a pain. The offline achievements though are straightforward and can be achieved easily.
Step 1 : WWE Attitude Mode
This is by far the game's best and most entertaining mode; it is akin to Story or single player mode on other games. It places you in the shoes of WWE greats such as HBK, Stone Cold, The Rock etc. and pits you in the middle of iconic matches during the Monday Night Wars of the 90s. The good thing here is that your actions in the "Attitude Mode" adds to your overall achievement aggregate (for eg. no. of matches won, and no. of tables broken).
My suggestion would be to play this mode on Legendary Difficulty (it helps towards Invincible man see below), bringing it down for tough individual matches. Try to complete all historic optional objectives, and unlock all the bonus items and matches. Move on to the next match only when all the objectives of the earlier have been completed. By the end of the Attitude Era mode, not only would you have the story related achievements (185G), but also a host of other general achievements. This should net you about 350G(+-100G).
Step 2: WWE Creation Mode
WWE has quite a creation suite, its not Skyrim, but its quite in depth. First up start off with creating a wrestler. Take your time and create one that you like, because you would need to play with him to earn some achievements. Next move onto "Create a finisher", then to "Create an Arena", "Creat a Logo", and finally to "Create an Entrance" and "Create a Story". Once done go to MyWWE>TitleManagement>Add Custom Title; here create a new title.
Next upload your creations to the Xbox Live servers, and review 5 other items on Community Creations. To get your content reviewed atleast 5 times, use this thread here.
By the end of this run you should have netted about 85 G more.
Step 3: Universe Mode/ Exhibition
You can round up all the exhibition themed achievements before you go into Universe mode, but note that those achievements can easily be had in the universe mode itself, irrespective of what it says in the description. Use your Custom Created Superstar to win and fulfill certain criteria to finish off the host of achievements here. (Note: The Streak Ends can only be completed in Universe mode, which is not mentioned in the description). You should have all of them by the time you finish your first Wrestlemania, and if you don't, the mode is just endless cycles of matches (remember you can edit the matches to your requirements in this mode), where you can wrap up your cheevos as leisurely as you want.
Step 4: Online Mode
If you are still here, then you should really like your wrestling. Nothing much to do here, but play as many matches as possible on Xbox Live and try to win as many. You earn points for your performance each match and level up accordingly netting cheevos on level 5, 10 and then the max level (presumably 15). You also earn one for winning 10 matches. Please note disconnected and games quitted will not count, also play in ranked matches only for gaining points. The game has server issues, so it might be some time before you get all of them. If you require boosting, check out the thread here.
Conclusion:
It's not as difficult as most games out there, and if you enjoy your wrestling games, you should be able to net the elusive 1000G very quickly
