    Xbox Live Gold on a PC

    I'm going to be away from my beloved 360 for a while (and the Internet for that matter), and I was fretting about the impact this would have on my Achievement whoring. Then, like a little lightbulb coming on I realised I had a Vista gaming laptop, and there were some Games For Windows that had achievements/Live integration. Problem solved. My questions are this though:

    1) With live on a PC, is it possible to ho achievements offline, and then when you next connect they're uploaded to your gamertag/profile? So, if I played the offline campaign on Halo 2 PC, would the 'chieves unlock, and then when I came back to Internet land and connected, suddenly my Live profile would leap up 500 odd points?
    2) I have heard that Viva Pinata doesn't let you save if you're not online? Is this true? That's not a common thing across titles like this is it?
    3) I've found Halo 2, Gears, Universe at War, Shadowrun and Viva Pinata, are there any other PC games with achievements to be got?

    Cheers!

    Don't know answers to your first two questions. but PC point whoring crossed my mind the other day, this helpful Wiki page was as far as I got (at bototm of the page it lists the PC games with Gamerscore points etc)



    Some games have shared (with 360) achievements, some don't and are registered separately.

    Also does anyone know if PC Bioshock has achievements ? thanks.

        1: Yes
        2: I'm sure I saved mine offline
        3 : I think that is all of them, although Shadowrun and UAW share the same set of achievements as the 360 one, so you can't get 2000 on those

            Nope, it doesn't. Once you've completed the game there's no reason to go back through it again really.
