Halo 3 is still doing great business on the Xbox LIVE most-played chart, but will the newly added roster of Achievements elevate the game from its perennial number two position?

There are ten new Achievements and 250 Points on offer to help to boost your flagging status. It's all part of the clunkily-monikered Title Update 2, which also adds a few “under-the-hood” enhancements and is due later this month. The majority of Achievements listed relate to the Legendary Map Pack (800 MS Points well spent) and most of the extra bits work behind the scenes thus will be invisible to players. Anyway here’s a list of the good stuff. Happy hunting!

• Vidmaster Challenge: 7 on 7 (0 points) - Enter into any ranked or social playlist with 7 EXP on the 7th of the month.
