3D Realms sends along word that they have posted the Xbox 360 Achievement List (http://www.3drealms.com/news/2006/06/xbox_360_achiev.html) for Human Head's upcoming DOOM 3-engine shooter, Prey.

They also note that the PC demo will be released on Thursday. (Or Wednesday at Midnight ETZ for us night owls.)

I can already hear bapenguin drooling into his 360 headset.

Achievement? Why, even having the bully to go and purchase this dreck would be worthy of the title, if one did replace "achievement" with "travesty." Ehueueueue.

Looks like one of the more balanced and fair achievment lists I've seen.

Looking forward to the 360 demo this Thursday... Also hoping one of the upcoming arcade titles will slip out at the same time.

I don't know, if not for the fact that I plan to sink a tonne of hours into Chromehounds and will have the GRAW dlc to hold me over until then I would robably pick this up. I think the the "crazy ass every direction might be down" mechanic might be fun. If nothing else, it'll be something different in multiplayer.

Yeah, it's going to be between this and Chromehouds for me. I'm also picking up LOTR on the 5th, so I'll really only have the time for one other game. Haven't decided which yet... hopefully the Prey demo will help me out there.

Luckily I'm on vacation the first 2 weeks of July... but I intend to be doing more golfing than gaming :D

Chromehounds environments look to bland, and then theres the uninteresting gameplay, so Prey is the only worth action game of my summer.

I really can't understand the lure of these achievement points. I mean, wading through all those crappy EA sports games, and the lame budget titles. Kudos to those who do, though. You guys must be stubborn as hell.

You don't HAVE to get the achievment points. I know for me though, They bring me back to play a game that I stopped playing, even though I really liked it.

Yeah, achievement points keep my interest. If only I had more time in front of the TV. *Sigh* I need to start work on the basement so I can have my theatre room.

360 demo Thursday too? I'd dig that.

This is a good list. Much more reasonable than a lot of games.

I'd probably have more points by now if I stopped getting DS games from gamefly and requested more 360 titles.

I dunno. I seem to burn through most of them in a night or two of work. I've found I'm much more of a completionist on my 360 games due to the achievement tracking.

I did some research and found out he has a gamerscore that is 2 points below mine.

I think From Hell may be addicted to some questionable substances...so therefore he often has what we in the medical profession call "brain farts"

I'm guessing laughter from another language? Much the way some folk use 'jajaja' even thought they don't speak spanish?

Regardless, I'll be grabbing the demo.

I'm in for the demo on this one. Probably not going to buy it though. I'm all excited for Chromehounds. It's getting my gaming dollars for the next month or so.

Also: Ditto on the achievement points keeping some interest in games. Though I do find it frustrating when there are ones that I know I will never get, like the style racer one in PGR3, or most of the multiplayer achievements in Ghost Recon :(

So the multiplayer is just deathmatch with teams or solo? That's meh.

I would like to ask if someone could give impressions of the 360 demo compared to the PC one. I'm interested in how they compare graphically and how well they've mapped the controls to the controller. I'd do it myself but I'm currently without a 360. I'd really appreciate if someone did!

Is a demo coming out for the 360 or is it just a PC Demo on thursday?

i know it's not nice to talk off topic, but i was hoping an admin could spread this news:

Uwe Boll just accepted his first contendor - get the story here: http://www.destructoid.com/uwe-boll-calibur-4-double-post

i apologize if this has already been announced on your site, but I don't think anyone has discovered this yet since it happened last night/this morning I believe.

Yup...this is a nice list of achievements. Good balance of SP and MP.

They will be mine...oh yes...they will be mine.

Awesome, not only have I had this game preordered for awhile but it looks like another sweet 1000points that are entirely possible without having to sell my soul to the devil. And if i counted right, it looks like there are 21 single player missions...not bad!

Yeah, I tried but it won't let me (probably because I shamelessly just signed up on EvilAvatar last night to spread this news).

It'll get posted, then, but stick around. ;)

Yes, the 360 version is released the same as the PC version, give or take a few hours, I'm sure. I was originally curious myself because it just says the PC demo being released. However, take a venture to the website mentioned in the article and further clicking shows the 360 version being mentioned as well.

Fantastic. I'll be getting this demo for sure then.

I like the balance of the points. This gurantied I will get the 360 version instead of the pc. I need my points ;)
