Do points make games better? (poll)

Would games like COD4 feel the same if you didn't get the +5xp on your screen? Would Killzone 2 be the same if you didn't here that little noise and +3 points everytime you got a kill? I feel an accomplishment when I see points on my screen, how about you?

They make sports games better. :lol:chathuranga

haha

Do they make the game better? Absolutely not. They do however tend to create a stronger bond with a game, while your striving to earn the most amount of points that you can. raven_squad

Well stated, it makes you want to play more and more

Battlefield 1943 wouldn't be the same without. I love on screen points

Not necessarily a better game but more addictive? Hell yea. Seeing +10xp in any game feels like an accomplishment and generally leads to a reward. Which is what real gamers go for, a rewarding experience.

LOL, what he said was right though,
it's s much better with arcade like games,

that's why MP works so beautifully.

but I can't imagine that being a good thing in the single player portion.

Battlefield 1943 is really the only game where I feel the points showing up make the game better.
