These are easy and achieveable in a single game. Just play regularly with the achievement discriptions in mind. You can also alter yours and the opposition's player's stats to your advantage as well as the sliders in the stats to your advantage. The 40 points and 15 3 pointer's acheivements will come together if you just use the same player. For steals, just try to steal everytime the opposing team is comming up the floor. Once you have 20, focus on trying to block. Be sure to always use the same player as you need 6 with one person. Those will all come fairly quick, and then you have to get 45 rebounds. If you have all of the rest finished and badly need rebounds, just intentionally miss on your own end to try to get rebounds and then try to get as many as you can on the other side as well.
One of my more favorite games to hit the system so far. DiRT is an off-road rally racing game. More arcade-like than a sim like Forza 2, but still challenging on the higher difficulties. Most of the achievements are pretty straight forward and you will complete as you naturally progress through the Career Mode portion of the game. You can choose one of five difficulties in single-player. The event achievements will unlock on any of the five. However, the easier difficulties will not pay out as much money. If you want all 1,000 points you will have to own all 46 cars in the game, many of which you have to buy with your winnings. The game forces you to challenge yourself a little if you want all the cars. This game is worthy of your effort and experienced gamers will be able to win most of the events on the Pro Am or Amateur settings (2nd and 3rd most difficult, respectively). The money you earn will allow you to finish buying all the cars about the time you complete the Career Mode portion.
There are mileage achievements at 100, 250, 500 and 1,000 miles. They only apply in Career Mode. Online events and any other single-player mode do not count towards that total. If you breeze through Career Mode on Rookie you will probably finish with less than 500 miles. To acquire the 1,000 miles you will be forced to replay many events multiple times. That will probably be the last achievement you unlock and it will likely become tedious even if you're a big fan. Another single-player mode is Rally Championships. There are three of those to complete for achievements and each has a short or long version, I recommend taking the short to keep the number of events down. Again, these miles don't count towards the mileage achievements.
There are only three online achievements. The online in general is pretty limited as most of the effort by the developers was put into the single-player. There's no head-to-head racing as it's all time based point-to-point competition. Despite the achievement description saying they must be earned in Ranked events, that is not the case. They can all be earned in private, Player matches. An excellent game with attainable achievements, what more could you ask?

This game provides fun, easy gamerscore. For this game, simply set the game on easy and play through the single player. Just keep playing until you unlock all of the achievements. That will get you all of the achievements in a fairly short amount of time, but if you want to make fights end sooner, as well as progress through the game faster, you can turn cheap hits off and use them in the fights to beat your opponents faster.
This game may be an easy 1000 points, but it is also a very dreadful. This game is far from fun, the controls are horrible, and it is very boring. Start off by going into the main battle mode. Set all of the bots on easy, make it so you only need to win 2 planets, and that it takes 3 wins to the planet. Do this with each character. Once you finish that, got into the minigame game mode and create a custom game. Then go through the list of games and be sure to play each one. Once you finish all of that, you should have all of the achievements except for the online ones. The online ones are best done by getting a freind to help you and use 2 bots set on easy. Do as the achievements state, and you will finish this game with the full 1000. You can also try finding someone already playing it but I wouldn't count on it. You can also post in this thread if you are looking for a partner.

Basically, a COD2 dressed in the Civil War era. It's just not as hard and exciting, and there's no multi-player whatsoever. An underrated FPS with simple achievements as long as you go in with a plan. The achievement system has a couple quirks to be aware of. There are specific weapon kill achievements that do not stack. Meaning, if you complete a level and get 20 pistol kills and you replay the same level but this time get 21 pistol kills, you get 21 towards the achievement not 41. This is also true for the overall kill achievements like, Captain, Colonel, General, etc.
With this in mind, what I found was to play for all the weapon achievements first to get them out of the way. People were having problems with the 100 Pistol Kills in particular, so I highly recommend getting that one on your first play-through. What I did, was play through the whole game on Easy obtaining the weapon kills using one weapon at a time until the achievement unlocked. There are 3 accuracy achievements on each level that do stack. I would play through the level once, killing everyone with my respective weapon. I would then immediately replay it shooting one person at close range and then run through the level without firing another shot. Melee strikes don't count against your accuracy, but typically you can run right past enemies on Easy. If you do have to fire again, make sure you hit your target or you will quickly go below the 95% required accuracy. Cannon shots will count against you so don 't use the cannon even when the AI tells you to. Bingo, three achievements per level. There are links on websites that give the locations of the pictures and letters you have to find for the Bookworm and Journalist achievements.
After getting all the accuracy and weapon achievements, I played the whole game start to finish on Hard to get the full 1,000. One good feature of the game is the ability to save at any time. This is great when you get through a difficult point you can save without having to advance to a checkpoint. You will die easily on Hard so save often. You may have to replay a couple levels and kill everything in sight to boost your kills over the 750 mark for the General achievment, as like I mentioned before, they don't stack. Overall a good, but limited game I definately did not regret playing.

To start off, play the game on the easiest difficult. Once you finish, you will have gotten yourself 600 points. This game is easy and suprisingly quite fun. I had a lot of fun with it and I wasn't expecting it at all. Once you have that done, you will need to play the coop. These are also quite easy. The only problem with these are is that you might have trouble finding someone online. I found it easier to plug in a second controller and have a friend play as the second person. The rest of the achievements can be quite difficult. For 100% completion, I would suggest using this checklist to find where all of the Fruits, Elixers, and Mystic Eyes are, you need to find them all to get 100% completion. For the A ranking achievements, I would suggest using this guide. Once you finish all of those, you will have all of the achievements that have a point value.
These are all eazy with a few being a bit time consuming. Start off by making a new franchise, as all of the achievements are attainable in this gamemode. For the first one, simply enter the history book. Next, if you pay attention to the top right corner of the screen sometimes you will see a black circle with RS in the center. Simply click the right stick for an achievement. Then go into the settings at set it on rookie with mid to long quarter lengths, I thought 10 minutes was perfect for these. You can acheive the next 7 in the first game. Simply do as the achievement states and you will get the points. Those achievements are Rush for 200 yards, Pass for 350 yards, 4 sacks, a touchdown, and a first down. If you win, you will get an additional two achievements, an offline win and a franchise win. Now, you can continue playing the first seaon or just simulate, but if you do simulate, be sure that your team gets into the superbowl. When they do, just play the game and win. Now for the tough one, complete 30 years of franchise. This one takes a bit of time. If you really want to play though, you can, but I would recommend simulating.
First off, these are actually all pretty easy and best done by simulating a franchise. This is what I would reccomend starting off doing. Make a new franchise, make is so you own all 32 teams, and simulate. Continue to do it untill you get 30 years as well as a Madden level of 50. By then you should have most, if not all, of the season record achievements as well. If you miss any, you will probably need to play a season and go for those records. While you do that, you could also win all of your games and get a Perfect Season which you probably won't get in the first 30 years. What you could do, is play the first season and get as many as you could. While you were doing that you can also get all of the game record acheivements as well and get those out of the way. That's up to you, if you would rather do those later in Play Now games that would also work. Your choice. If you have access to a save game of NCAA 07, when you are in Franchise mode and get to the draft, upload a roster. For the next few, you will have to do a few different tasks. Start off by creating a player, then switch it to All madden and get a shutout, play a live opponent game, and play a minigame. Once you complete all of that, you only have the superstar achievements remaining. All of these can be attained by simulating or playing. Make a new superstar of the appropriate position for the achievement you are seeking, and simulate. You should get the season ones in a few tries and the career ones after a few, or possible quite a bit more, seasons.
I would start off by changing the settings to how you prefer them and be sure to have it set on pro difficulty. Now, if you want to, you can alter both yours and the opposing team's stats to make it easier for you. In the game, just try to get as many strikouts as you possibly can, and try to get a homerun with every batter. If you don't get a homerun but still get on base, be sure to steal. That way you are working towards your steals. For the wall climb, wait until they have a power hitter up and pitch it straight down the plate with a fastball. Then, if it works, run towards the red triangle that appears and hit the dive joystick.
