That's what I was mocking.

Let's see you do a better job then . Give me a serious list of achievements for Crash Team Racing.

[EddieRuckus]

I'm sorry, I don't think Dan nor the rest of us are lame enough to come up with a list of arbitrary achievements. At least I know I'm not going to waste my time on this.

*Awaits to get a complaint filed on me for trolling and bringing down this board*

[Meacon Keaton]

This thread is the worst thread.

[Exodia The Forbidden One]

You're the worst thread ¬¬.

[SeanDMan]

You really got him there, dude.

[Colly]

I don't even understand this thread.

[Ruki]

You're the worst thread ¬¬.

This is the worst bump. This thread was ready to die.....but no, like a necrophiliac, you just had to dig it up for one more round.

[Guest JukeboxHero]

How does the Wii not have an achievement/trophy system?

How does the Wii not have an achievement/trophy system?

Because Nintendo haven't realised what replayability is yet. And they've only been in the game for over 25 years. -__-

Because Nintendo haven't realised what replayability is yet.

The company that's made a big chunk of change re-releasing video games from its history via a pay-for-download system hasn't figured out what replayability is yet?

[EddieRuckus]

Not to mention there are games on NES, SNES, Game Boy, N64, and Gamecube that I will gladly choose to play over a game that has achievements or trophies. But you know, whatever, achievements/trophies are obviously the only way I'll ever get replayability out of a game

[Ruki]

No achievements, no fun

[King Ellis]

I don't know about you guys, but I need my games to validate me as I play.

[Exodia The Forbidden One]

It's really all psychological about risk and reward. With Xbox 360, you'll sacrifice your time to play games, and be rewarded with gamerscore, whereas Nintendo just depend on their games being fun enough to have many hours of play without needing achievements. It works out well for them.... most of the time ¬_¬. Glad to see some Nintendo games return to their roots with New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Donkey Kong Country Returns. I don't know about anyone else but I didn't enjoy Donkey Konga or Super Mario Sunshine.

[GoGo Yubari]

With Xbox 360, you'll sacrifice your time to play games, and be rewarded with gamerscore, whereas Nintendo just depend on their games being fun enough to have many hours of play without needing achievements.

If your argument is that the Xbox's approach is superior you're really not doing yourself any favors with that comparison.

[Exodia The Forbidden One]

Not really. I never showed preference for one over the other. Xbox's approach can be more 'addictive', or 'goal-setting'. But some games you could waste your time chasing after 1,000 points to a meaningless number, when its just an awful game. Like LOST: The Video Game. Nintendo try to keep you hooked by making ALL of their games as fun as possible. Neither of these approaches work ALL the time though. Different games have different audiences. Personally, I prefer RPG's.

[Sousa]

So what you're saying is that Nintendo is like getting together with your buddies for a night of Settlers of Catan and German beer, while XBox 360 is like a mouse in a cage punching a lever to have cocaine injected into its genitals?

I don't disagree.

[Exodia The Forbidden One]

I wouldn't put it like that. But, aye. If cocaine in the genitals is what you consider rewarding, ofcourse.
