x3 boost chain (GT Nighthawk)

There are two ways around this:

Method 1

a.)Backup your save file to a USB stick

b.)Delete the save file on the PS3

c.)Get the 3x boost chain

d.)Once the trophy is rewarded restore your save from the USB stick

Method 2

Get a boost chain at least 3 greater than your current record.

I and several others have successfully used method 1. I haven't tried method 2 but have been told it works.

Is there anymore achievements for Xbox with these updates or is it going to be all sorted for the Island update, since we have so far seen nothing on that front?

And that lamp post outside the Baseball stadium, wreaks the Jansen 88 in a race, just for the heads up there, when doing the around Paradise race.

Patience is something I taught myself, so I never know when it's going to run out?

Well, there were two new achievements with the party pack, leaving 200 points left. I honestly thought they were going to add one for finishing the Bike Pack/getting 102%. I thought it was really stupid of them to add 50 points for the flipping Party Pack, and nothing for the bikes. I would think that they'd do stuff like all billboards and all the new challenges stuff when the island comes out, but clearly they're not thinking logically with these things.

 You don't think it's logical to include the achievements with the PDLC? I wouldn't even consider it cynical to expect them to include the achievements only with the PDLC, if only to milk some cash from the achievement junkies.

How glad am I for having the PC-version which has 60 cars- and 20 bikes-achievements. Just without points though but that's enough for us PC-gamers. We're used to it thanks to Steam. =3

I guess the only problem for Xbox360-users is that Microsoft might have to review those achievements and tell Criterion what to do about them. Perhaps that takes too damn long (we know how long it already takes when MS reviews patches) so Criterion just waits until releasing more. So perhaps people are right when they say "Criterion will when the Island comes".

At the moment it seems to be just exclusive things that can go over 250 extra achievement points (Halo 3, Fallout 3). Still, I don't see why Criterion couldn't have added 10 achievements for 5G each for the cars.

I really don't think CG has put much thought or effort into how they can best use their 250 g from releasing PDLC.

I think the Party Pack achievements were not thought through, why not have them the same as the PS3 Trophies? More achievements for less gamerscore is definitely better.

Same with the cars, having small gamerscore achievements is much better then having none at all.

The way the achievements have been so far makes me feel that the remaining 200 gs will probably be in 1 big achievement for finding all the Island collectables or something.

I really hope the Xbox Achievements are given a bit more thought and made in line with the PS3 Trophies.

I like Achievements, not for the gamerscore, but because they can be a way of adding new challenges to a game. I even like the 0 gs achievements! Why not add more of those??
