All PC games that have had achievements up to this point have also had a 360 counterpart with achievements.  Well not any more.  Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II will be the first game to accomplish this feat.

It has always been up to the developers on the PC side of things to choose whether or not to have achievements associated with their games.  In the past most developers didn’t choose to use this service because it made gamers have to pay for a live account when most PC based online games didn’t force you to pay anything at all.  Now the service is free.

No matter which way you look at it, this is a positive for PC gaming.  Achievements rock.
