While watching Family Guy tonight I saw this and it made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Also, that's usually where my money goes too.

What is it with you people and Waffles? Belgium waffles, Waffle trophies, waffle cones.... Why don't you try something new, like Toast?

Originally, "waffle" was used to replace the word "whore."
This was due to the popularity of the terms "scorewhore" and "Achievement whore," as in people that compromise their usual gaming 'standards' and play games they normally wouldn't just to get Gamerscore & Achievements.
After that definition of waffle stuck, it started to get used a little more broadly. A "waffle" as a noun on its own came to mean a game that may not be very good but had quick and/or easy Achievements/Gamerscore. We likened this to eating a waffle, which is quick to fix and tasty to eat but ultimately not very substantial or healthy.
Then came the verb form--"to waffle" meant to play a game expressly for the Gamerscore and/or Achievements. This can be conjugated out to whatever time and tense are needed: I waffle, you waffle, he/she/it waffles, I waffled, they are waffling, he/she/it will waffle.
Lastly, it can used colloquially to describe the effort required or difficulty in attaining Gamerscore and/or Achievements from a certain games. In this form, it is often a portmanteau: "Yeah man, Assassin's Creed 2 had some serious wafflitude," or "So how is the wafflage in that new Disney game?"
Game reviews may include a section describing a title's "waffle factor", which compares it to other "waffles" in terms of how long Achievements take, how much effort the Gamerscore requires, etc.
You guys should definitely get together with Melissa to make a concise, standardized definition for 'waffle' so we can all start spamming urbandictionary with it!
