Do nothing and earn achievements, that's the rule of app achievements introduced on xbox one.

Today, on Xbox Wire, they announced the Machinima app achievements, and they are even more fool than I expected, take a look:

watching 1000 videos on Machinima? Really? How long? Do you have to finish watching them? I'm not sure I've even watched 1000 videos on youtube, and I've been using it frequently since 2006 (before Google).

Some Xbox 360 apps already have achievements, the Karaoke one comes to mind. I had to stick my mic up to a fan for a while to get those

But hey, can't argue with free Gamerscore. I'm totally doing those once I pick up my preorder.

I believe these ones don't count towards a gamerscore but a media score as far as I read

 

[drfsupercenter]

Oh, well the Karaoke ones counted towards gamerscore. As do the Windows 8 free games

I use you tube frequently although not as frequently as some and I've watched over 2500 videos in the last year according to my youtube watch history albeit some of them may not have been watched fully to the end. I doubt you've not even seen 1000 videos if you've been using youtube "frequently" since 2006.

Why are people so anal about achievements? Like, do you really care about your gamerscore?

 

[Gahars]

Are they even relevant anymore?

At this point, Meh-chinima would be a more fitting name.

But how else will foul mouthed 12 year olds know I'm better than them if I don't have a giant gamerscore?

Oh, how can i find my watch history? Would be interesting to see... maybe I've seen 10,000+ videos, I have no idea
EDIT: I found where you can see the viewing history... but they stop counting at 10,000 apparently, so 10,000+ was obviously not as exaggerated as I thought it would be! Also saw that I've been a member since Mars 2006)

Well, I don't care about achievements like this. But when it comes to games that has achievements, I have to get them just because I want a feeling of completion. (Mini-OCD feeling)

This. Even after you beat the main story, often times there are little things you have to go back and do to get a 100% complete on the achievements. Granted, sometimes I intentionally play games with easy achievements just so I can feel like I've beaten more games
