Halo and its Downfall. No really!

I love Halo 3. For the past year or so I have always had Halo in my heart. I like to visit it as often as I can. I always find joy in dedicating my time to this game deserving much praise, no matter what your opinion is.
It has Achievements, of course it does. Ever since Xbox came out I dreamed of getting a thousand achievement points in one game. I wanted Halo 3 to be the one. So I worked on it, as often as I could. New games would come out, old games would spark an interest, I would play other things because that is just the way things are. I Can't sit still on one project while the rest of the video game world is still running, that is near impossible. So I would come to Halo 3 when it was possible, past all the rush of christmas, school, work, family and friends. I could probably have dedicated more time, but I have to upkeep my life. Just how it is.
I was able to get all Thousand. I was in the Katana Club. I was excited and able and ready. Things were looking up for me. Then.... this. Fucking shit.

Really!?!?! 750 MORE achievement points? OK, I am fine with this, cool. Maybe new avatars. Maybe this will get more people playing again. I mean, I still have the same problems before, but I can make due. Oh...
You have to pay for the new maps.
Oh, the achievements are rediculous.
I will keep trying, but things such as completing co op with 4 people all riding ghosts... thats just rediculous. I want so bad to get to the best. To be at the top. To feel as if I am worthy of some unkown prize. Maybe I will never be able to spend my achievement points on anything, But hell... I have them don't I.
But with shit that deals with ghosts... Especially when half the time I am a ghost to the game, I can't deal with that.
There should be Two achievements.
each for a thousand, but you can only have one.
Try
and don't.
That way, I know I am always making progress.
I may not have the points quite yet... But I promise to one day.
To myself, and to the game.
