I'm playing Kingdom Hearts still which will slowly give me achievements and I'm getting the odd achievement randomly while playing madden 12 which is nice.

I still have PS3 games I've yet to touch so should be a goal that's achievable if i continue to play for the next 4 months.

I've found the level/trophy/achievement system to be a great incentive to either attack the backlog or more thoroughly explore beaten games. It's a weird, ultimately meaningless thing to level up, but the number of games I've completed versus simply blasting through have boosted big time since I started paying attention to it. Meaningless? Maybe. Worthless? Absolutely not.

You can doo eet!

It's pretty much DLC.

Every amiibo has 20 or so extra single player levels.

Is that common for amiibos in general? That's really a pretty nice bonus to go along with the figurines.

I'm unsure. I think it depends on the game.

You say nice bonus, other say content needlessly pay-walled away in a $60 game.
