Microsoft Says Over 4.5 Billion Achievements Have Been Unlocked On Xbox

4.6
Since Microsoft launched the Gamerscore system, gamers have earned over 270 billion achievement points and unlocked a whopping 4.5 billion achievements.

That’s according to Microsoft, currently celebrating the 10th birthday of Xbox Live. The platform holder also notes that since Live began in 2002, over 122,265.266 friendships have been made.

Friendships seems like a strong word for adding randoms dudes you met online playing FIFA, doesn’t it?

Anyway, while Microsoft hands out 10th birthday Xbox consoles to select, long-serving Xbox Live subscribers in the US, Europeans are getting... a helmet.

Yup, anniversary branded avatar helmets have been unlocking for some European users, though the exact requirements to earn it have not been revealed yet.

Go on Europe, show other gamers how special you are.

When it states, "hands out 10th birthday Xbox consoles to select, long-serving Xbox Live subscribersS" it better mean somehow they know your xbox 10 years old. If it is for one xbox live account Microsoft can go f themselves. They perma banned my one account for a first offense when my avatar was purple skinned. Yet other people kept getting week bans and even then they wouldn't let me recover my next account. Their system update corrupted it and I didn't have the PW to recover. Then I proved it was my account and even did an option they had to tell them used codes I have on that account. 14 codes I used and they said it wasn't sufficient info.

Wisest My friend in the US only received the helmet, Microsoft told him it's because he doesn't have a high gamerscore.

That is a lot of friendships made though. .__.


Because he didn't have a high gamerscore? Wtf that's unfair as hell, -,-
