Here's one that they missed:

Thou Shalt Not Create Leaderboard Achievements

Seriously. I have a huge gap in my achievement list for GRAW 1, solely because obtaining the "reach the top of the leaderboards" achievements is impossible to get.

  The people on top of that list cheated too. Nobody who has that achievement got it legit.

Not a bad list really. I'm not an achievement whore myself, but still.

Easy mode credit for hard mode completion is one, for sure.

Clever achievements are a plus, to be sure.

Unnatural play achievements can sure be annoying >_> I don't play LIVE onine, but the achievements that ruin offline play must be abolished (namely the TK types)

Booby prize ones can be LOL worthy. I can forsee a game (unless one does it already) that gives you a 0 point achievement that says something along the lines "Thanks for paying for this game!" or something more simpler like "Getting Started".
