An '''Achievement''' is a reward given to players when they accomplish certain gaming feats decided by the developer in videogames published for ''Games for Windows Live'', [[Xbox 360]] and [[Xbox One]] consoles, and on Valve's ''Steam'' platform. Since the launch of the Xbox 360, it has been a mandatory requirement by [[Microsoft]] that all videogames published on the console (including 360 versions of multiplatform games) feature Achievements. | An '''Achievement''' is a reward given to players when they accomplish certain gaming feats decided by the developer in videogames published for ''Games for Windows Live'', [[Xbox 360]] and [[Xbox One]] consoles, and on Valve's ''Steam'' platform.

On the Xbox 360, Windows and Steam platforms, achievements take the appearance of icons or badges, not unlike the [[medals]] which can be found in the ''Halo'' games. In contrast to the original small, square achievement icons, Xbox One achievements are represented by large 16x9 images. Rather than icons, these images are often screenshots, concept art, or other related imagery. These images may or may not include additional text, such as the name of the title or a developer logo. | On the Xbox 360, Windows and Steam platforms, achievements take the appearance of icons or badges, not unlike the [[medals]] which can be found in the ''Halo'' games.
