The System Wars Lounge v20 - The 'Subtitle Goes Here' Edition

You guys go through Lounge threads like crazy, so here's a fresh one for you to break in. Good timing too, since E3 is just around the corner. Breathe it all in now because this "new thread" smell isn't going to last forever.

A quick recap of the rules:

Trolling and ribbing are allowed, but no flaming.

No religious and political stuff here. Keep that to the Off-Topic forum.

Enjoy :)

Yeah what did he do?:o

Can't believe I'm actually on for this.

Does anyone else think the new DC comics logo looks stupid?

You nubs best show The Mighty LoN some more respect. You wouldn't wanna see him when he's angry.

I'm about ready for that Spurs v Heat finals.

Posting 500 meter tall robot, as is tradition.

What kind of bad stuff? :o

Horrible, unspeakable things. From what I heard he almost brought about some full-scale catastrophe.

It'd probably be better if he came in here and told his side of the story.

Grab a mirror and start chanting his name, he'll show up eventually.

Ugh, playing Civ V with my friends, and the game crashes on the host, and that was pretty much the end of the game. Nobody could rejoin, and take host.................................................................

Why!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I'm about ready for that Spurs v Runner-ups finals.

I have some incredibly depressing news. Don't click the spoiler if you don't want to get sad.

[spoiler] After a 10 hour game of Civ V I....I.....lost :cry::cry::cry: [/spoiler]

Wow the lounge is 20 already, seems like only yesterday they were just 1 :sniff: :cry:carlisledavid79

I remember them from way back when. It's been what, 2 years since they started?

Why must devs insist on putting MP achievements in games.

Max paynes 3 MP is absolutely fantastic. But it's slowly becoming a ghost town.

No Tomb Raider info in months. What's up with that? I was really looking forward to it. I hope they are close and haven't had to redo a large portion of the game.

I'm still not convinced that the WiiU controller will be comfortable.

MS Paint is the best photo editing software.Haziqonfire

I have become an expert with it myself.

As for what I really came here to say

This song from Civ V may be one of the most glorious renditions of America The Beautiful ever created

They're probably all going back to Call of Duty.

That's the worst especially when you like a game enough that you want to 100% it only to find that's impossible becuase of multiplayer achievements....

Well I played this racing game Fuel, and I wanted to get all the achievements, but some of the MP achievements told me to do things like beat five of my friends in a race, or random other people, IIRC.

The problem was that none of my friends had the game, and I probably only ever saw three people online, and I played it for like 67 hours...

The game will forever be incomplete :(

I'd imagine the best solution to this is to not give a damn about trophies or achievements.

There are different levels of obsession. There are some people who will buy games just because they're an easy platinum trophy. There are also people who will force themselves through games just to get a platinum.

I think trophies are cool, and when an unlocked trophy or achievement pops up, I read the description and I'm like, "oh, cool". I've never read a list of achievements before playing a game and have never consciously trophy hunted. The only trophies I have came from pure chance.

I think trophies and achievements are good additions, but it's obvious that they can have a negative effect if they're taken seriously.

Precisely why they should be a little 'easier' to achieve. If and when the servers shut down or the community has dwindled, they should 'release' those trophies/achievements. I'm with you, I enjoy when a trophy pops, but I am not going to attempt a plat just for the sake of it. But knowing that I am only 2 trophies shy of a plat, and the only ones left are insanely idiotic in scope, I feel a little cheated.
