On Halo 2 Achievements
Maarten Goldstein

The IGN Blog website has a new Halo 2 blog, which covers the game's support of achievements. Popular on the Xbox 360, the achievement system is part of the Vista Live for Windows platform. As you'd expect, there is an incentive for paying for a Gold (subscription based) account.
Silver accounts on LIVE can earn achievements on the single-player campaign, and play in multiplayer games. Gold accounts on LIVE have the added benefit of being able to earn achievements in both single-player campaign and multiplayer matches.

A Gold account will also be required for Shadowrun cross-platform play.

      Well it would be silly to have two levels and have them both be free; I mean if it's all free they wouldn't have "Silver" and "Gold." Those accounts apply to both Xbox and PC, so if you have Gold it applies to both.
