As a beside I'm actually whoring the last few points from BiA by sticking it in the console every day.

There's an achievement for playing for 100 days and another for once a week for 3 months. I'm currently on about 60 days! Sad I know...

When I got the 19 point achievement in Fifa 09, I put Forza 2 back on and got one of the 1 point achievements to even it out. I'm really anal about it for some reason :/

It's not that sad, I've been known to switch my 360 on and have a 2 minute blast on an Arcade game just to keep my gaming-every-day streak alive on 360voice

I hadn't looked at the BiA achievements, I keep meaning to actually play that game. I did the first 5 minutes and have never been back to it.

I'm the same lately, I think it's because so many FPS games lately are just a matter of 'duck, cover, shoot' ad infinitum.

You can do the 100 day achievement easier than that, you can change the date around on the 360 while it's disconnected from the net Although I suppose you lose the satisfaction of doing it correctly

I also load a game up just to keep my streak going. I was gutted at Ground Force Weekend as I forgot to turn it on one of the days so I lose a 104 day streak

I just went back yesterday to it, its my aim now to try and get at least 500 points on any game i play before moving onto anything else, so im trying to clean up some old stuff ive got before i get onto the christmas blockbusters.

Only problem is my kids were at my pc yesterday and put on Your in the Movies on my gamerprofile instead of my daughters, grr.

Out of that list, Lego Star Wars and Scene It will be easiest, but you haven't really got any quick and easy point games. Smackdown isn't too bad, you can get a 350 point achievement in a couple of hours if you're happy to bodge it. Crackdown's achievements are great fun but they can be a little time consuming. Stay away from Soul Calibur if you want quick achievements, as you won't find too many there!

I was going to say the same as Davey. Forza 2 isn't bad for points but they're not quick. Same for most of them really! CoD4 has simple points but not easy ones as you need to play through the game on veteran.
