Back Compat Titles in Gamercard = Wuhbuh?!
So, having played the delicious demo of Burnout Paradise out on Marketplace, as well as the recent back compat update including Burnout 2: Point of Impact and IGN's mention of Burnout 3: Takedown coming to Xbox Originals made me crave playing it again. Plus, Stryker is a better Crash FM DJ than Atomika, in my minority opinion. So I popped it in and played through some of the Single Player World Tour (what with EA disabling online play, and all) for about 45 minutes. When I got back to my Dashboard on 360, I checked my games played list to look at some GRAW 2 Achievements and saw this:
What is that doing there? Sure, it doesn't show up on my xbox.com profile, but srsly guyz. Why is that there? Why does it show 0 of 0 Achievements with 0 Gamerscore? And why does it have to use the Xbox icon as placeholder. I mean, unless Microsoft is planning to automagically add Achievements to select Backwards compatible/Xbox Originals titles despite saying it won't happen, I know of no reason why that should clutter my Gamercard, only on my Xbox 360, and think it should forever be forgot.
Oh, and BO3:TD? Still frickin' rad.

The only game for original is Halo 2, and I'll probably never ever play that on MY 360...although it'll still show on my gamercard if I play it at my friends place... Oh well.
Still an interesting feature but it would have been nice to have the option to turn this on or off...
