These are also on Bungies site now. Looks great.

The ones where people will update about eating something they are currently eating.

No like social networking sites.

I didn't say I didn't like them. They are fun they add replay and make nice challenges, but they are unneeded. Scoring them is even more unneeded, look at Steam achievements they just list what you managed to acomplish without attributing some sort of rank.

No, I mean there is no need to tropichievements. They are a glorified post count if posting had insane restrictions put on it to make the post count. With daily changes.

But there is no need regardless.

...Is it really punishing?

If you completed a game, and DLC comes out it will be removed from your list of completed games despite you previously having 1000/1000.

I hope that's not the only parallel you can draw.

Eh both work I just find Arbitrary more fitting. That's just an asinine way of thinking.

Dazzybee, I think you meant arbitrary not abstract. Daft, "The True Horseman (100) COMPLETE the game on APOCALYPTIC difficulty" Darksider achievement. Rather than assigning an arbitrary number trophies are given an arbitrary color/metal dependant upon what the developer decides they are worth hardly different from achievements really. To be honest though, I prefer trophies as well since they did away with arbitrary numbers which just somehow makes them seem more acceptable. Example, my brother-in-law never ever cared about achievements, but he tries to get trophies. He doesn't have time to dedicate for getting platinums, but he tries more than he did with achievements.

It's called Pleather for Breakfast. (Bad Girl theme)

I've read some rumors that Sony is considering a Premium sort of payment plan for PSN... Really I can see online going either way for consoles, free all around or PSN becoming paid. Idk about Wii going paid just because of nintendo's current ideology.

How is penises only arguably sexual?

It was a conscious decision on both counts though.

It's cheaper and you can go much higher with HDD sizes than what MS has out. Then again I don't see the reason to have so much stuff installed. O_W you forgot to mention Serious Sam HD.

Yes. RRoD remember.

I think you misunderstood him. Like you said some people are just too good with K/M, in the same vein there are people like that with Controllers as well but the mouse users would beat controller hands down. Of course it's just not an issue outside Quake 3 on DC, playing that back in the day you could tell who had a mouse and who had the pad. Same principal now.

Well, graphically they are better(not a big thing, but it's what PC guys love) L4D also has bonuses of free content, and free multiplayer. Personally I prefer K/M over a controller, as I'm sure other do as well. PC generally has lower load times than consoles. Little things, but they are there. I've never really used Party chat, but most of the people I play with all just use Skype for the very reason of being able to chat no matter what is being played. Works great for crossplatform chatting as well. (hilarious with iSketch)

I knew I was forgetting some, and I also wasn't counting XBLA. (which....B&K could be played on PC). To my knowledge I thought Alan Wake was always slated for both PC and 360. I'm almost sure they've had videos from both versions.

I would like to mention that the Halo exclusives will likely take a damn long time to hit PC and it's pretty unlikely GoW 2 will hit it. Along with ummm Crackdown...and yeah that's pretty much it for 360>PC exclusives.

Didn't stop them from trying though.

Their point system is 1 point=1 cent, at least in the US. So 2000 points is $20, certainly makes more sense than 1600 points is $20.

The fire was nice.
