I purchased the game in December and since then, occasional achievements will not unlock. This is in spite of fulfilling all requirements, constantly being connected to Xbox Live and even doing them over again. I've seen similar issues with no resolution. The ones causing me grief are:
1. Hello Darkness, My Old Chum - Befriend the Grim Reaper
2. Older & Wiser - Have a Sim age up
3. Over Achiever - Complete 5 aspirations
1A: I have maxed out both the friendliness and romantic bars with one sim, had 2 others max only friendship and another only romance. It will not pop.
2A: I am currently on my 7th/8th generation and have auto-aged (with cake), waited out the time, thrown all types of parties, and even got the achievement for playing from birth to natural death. Still not unlocking.
3A: I have completed 6 now with one sim. As these are time consuming to do I haven't been able to try on another.
I've only seen suggestions that state to start a new 8 person household and these will unlock well, that was the 1st achievement I got as I began with 8
I have contacted EA through chat and was issued troubleshooting guides which I did and nothing worked. I've tried Xbox's general troubleshooting also as well as, guides specifically for Achievements Not Unlocking. Nothing has worked.
The only additional advice I got from EA was to post this and hope for the best or bug Xbox, who tell me to bug EA.
Any suggestions/solutions would be fantastic. I love the Sims franchise and have done for years but, am loathe to continue with a game that may or may not work.
PLEASE HELP!
Solved! Go to Solution.

I don't get it! I spoke to EA and they denied all affiliation with any potential problem and advised speaking to Microsoft. I did that and they said there is noting they can do about it because, it is EA's issue. In the weeks that I have posted I've seen so, so, so, so many other people in the same boat but, no acknowledgement from EA sadly. I do really hope they sort this soon. I haven't played it at all which sucks because, A: I love the Sims and B: I like 100% acheivements but, I just don't see the point until they resolve these issues! I'm quite glad I haven't bought any expansions either as I don't want to play a broken game. Microsoft contacted me today and asked if it was still a problem and it is. Hopefully, someone somewhere will fix this for us soon.

I suppose it's something that have actually acknowledged it but, as you say, it's whether they do something or not. On all the pages and forums: I have tried every trick and troubleshooting and nothing happens. Even saving the game just before completion. From what I have seen though, each person has the same issue but with different types of achievements? Like for me personally, I've had no issues with the Max Skills or even Careers, it's everything else. Then there are some that cannot obtain these and get the rest? It's a bit ridiculous at this point as there is obviously some form of glitch/error with achievements but they aren't specific ones.
