2,500,000,000 Achievements have been unlocked

Saturday 4-Apr-2009 4:00 PM 52 billion gamerscore awarded
7 Comments
Xbox 360 gamers have unlocked a grand total of two and a half billion Achievements, according to Xbox boss Aaron Greenberg, earning 52 billion Gamerscore in the process.

That's the weak, American, billion rather than the mighty UK one, but still an impressive sum. The average works out at 150 Gamerscore for every Xbox gamer, a figure that our Gillen topped only recently when he finally got broadband.

The stats were referenced in a feature at Gamasutra looking at how Achievements should be used by game developers. It's not a bad read, if you're bored this weekend.
