I've actually never seen that in a game. I've seen this argument case where
"The Simpsons give you 5Gs for pressing start = Achievements are lame". True but that's 5/1000. Achievements allow developers to be creative with their achievements.
Beat Act 1 = 10Gs <- I see nothing wrong with that. I've never seen a checkpoint achievement though (What game has done this?). Not to mention if that's true, it's a minority case over the majority so I wouldn't even consider that a valid point. For every achievement that's "Press Start > Gain Gamerscore" I could easily argue back "Beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on the hardest setting/Clear all Trials in SF4/Beat Through the Fire and the Flames on Guitar Hero 3 etc".
I s'pose my problem is that I don't know what "Beat Act 1 = 10Gs " actually means.
