Earn 9,000 points!
Rack up 9,000 Xbox Live achievement points in just 48 hours!
When the Xbox 360 launched, few people expected achievement points to become such a driving force for people to play games--even games they didn't particularly like. Last year, we showed you how you could boost your gamerscore by 6,000 points with as little effort as possible and then followed that up with 1,000 points courtesy of Xbox Live Arcade. Now, we're back again to help you boost your gamerscore by more than 9,000 points. That's right, in less time than it takes to beat a lengthy role-playing game, you can send your gamerscore through the roof! We've also scouted out the best new Xbox Live Arcade games for scoring quick points and identified some of the toughest recent Xbox 360 games to get points from. Let's get started!

Fuzion Frenzy 2

Points: 1,000

Estimated Time: Four to six hours

All you need to get 1,000 points out of Fuzion Frenzy 2 is patience--skill is optional. Start with the single-player game, set the "number of worlds to win" option to two, and then plug in as many controllers as you can find. If you're able to fill all four controller spots (dance pads, guitar controllers, and driving wheels will work just fine), you're guaranteed to breeze through the game with each character in no time at all. If you can't fill all four controller ports, simply set the CPU to easy, and you should have little trouble beating the game with each character.

Zak Master - 50 points
Win the main battle tournament with Zak.

Naomi Master - 50 points

Jet Master - 50 points

Geena Master - 50 points
Win the main battle tournament with Geena.

Samson Master - 50 points

Dub Master - 50 points
Win the main battle tournament with Dub.

Custom Master - 50 points
Win an offline custom game.

Fuzion Frenzy Rookie - 25 points
Play three types of minigames (practice mode doesn't count).

Minigame Collector - 150 points
Beat the game, and you'll have unlocked all of the minigames.

Fuzion Frenzy Master - 150 points
By the time you've beaten the game, you should have unlocked all of the minigames. Make sure you go back and play the last game you've unlocked, or you won't get the points

The online portion of the game is dreadful, thanks to an unbalanced card system and an incredibly obnoxious announcer that can't be skipped. You can get the online points legitimately with a little bit of effort, but let's face it, we're trying to expend as little energy as possible here. Find a buddy that's looking for points, set the other two CPU opponents to easy, and take turns earning achievements. If you don't have any friends that want to play, it's quite easy to find someone to help you out since the only reason people are playing the game online is to earn points.

Tournament Hero - 100 points
Win an online tournament.

Minigame Frenzy Hero - 100 points
Win 10 online battle minigame frenzies.

The First Victory - 25 points
Win one victory in the online battle minigame frenzy.

Custom Hero - 100 points
Win an online custom game.

Easy Xbox Live Arcade Points

 

Easy Points Fever!

Pac-Man

Easy Points: 170

Even inexperienced Pac-Man players shouldn't have too much trouble chomping their way to 170 achievement points. Clearing round 21 might seem like a daunting task, but this tip can make it a little easier. In the options menu, change your number of lives to five. Because you can start a game from the last level you've cleared, you basically have five lives to clear any level in the game. The only superdifficult achievement here is trying to eat each ghost four times in a single stage--that one's no joke.
