Earlier today, some pics popped up on the web which displayed what appeared to be a GTA IV achievement comparison between an anonymous gamer and a Rockstar employee who had played a build of the game online. Suspiciously, the comparison showed only the names of each achievement on the list while the companion pictures, descriptions, and gamerscore values were nowhere to be found.

But just when I was about ready to call hoax on the whole thing, a member of the xbox360achievements.org forums posted the same list, this time with respective descriptions and gamerscore amounts for each achievement . They sound pretty legit too, as many Rockstar-esque references and inferences can be found throughout the post. Maybe these are the real deal after all…

Check them out at the x360a forums and judge their validity for yourself. As for us, we’re still labeling this one a rumor for now.
