Spartans never die, they're just missing in action.

I was playing on Chasm Ten with 2 other friends. We got 207,238 points, but we didn't get the achievement. Did i something wrong?

Did you end the game as soon as you got over 200,000? Some people have done this before the game has a chance to register the score and unlock the achievement.

You were playing with 32 friends? Odd, i though it only took 4 people. Just kidding.

Yeah, it takes a while for the achievement to come up. It usually comes up around 202k for me though. Just to be safe, stay in the game until you get the achievement, just like endure.

I have no idea why it didnt give you the achievement. The run looks fine. Maybe try it again.

Well, 2 of us died already, and then the third reached the 200,000 mark and even reched the 207,000 mark.

I don't remember if having people that are dead in the game matters, I don't think it does. I do know that when it comes to the achievements for this game you have to keep playing until you see it pop up on the screen saying that it is unlocked. If you don't see it come up, you didn't get it.

Thats why i made a habit of hitting the center button and checking that it was unlocked before ending the game

I found with endure that it didnt pop up until i hit the xbox guide button. We got a bit of the way into the 5th set and we were just like "where's our achievement?". Pressed the guide button to check, and the achievement popped up.

In any case, it looks like you're going to have to do the achievement again. Sorry. Chasm 10 is fun, so it shouldnt be too bad.
