Exactly. We don't play games for awards you can only see by diving down into some deep menu somewhere. We play them for the experience of playing them. Recognition is in-game rewards, like story or character insight, additional challenges. Racking up achievements is Citizen Kane ish, eventually you run out of time and…

I still can't get by the fact that he was a rank misogynist. As amazing as his flow may be, he obsesses so much of negatively slamming women it's distracting to the point of unlistenable.

This story reads slightly aspergerian to me. Was there a need to go into that level of detail? I think I got the point about 2 paragraphs in, but then the whole thing turned into a list and it became quite a slog to get through.

Kung Fu Hustle.

@KirkyX: Somehow I don't find huge plumes of noxious exhaust bellowing out of an overpriced tin can beautiful. I'm not trolling, I just see this as an ultimate example of unsustainability.

@Hearthatvoiceagain says Get well soon Steve.: Your opinion is a triumph of British PR, nothing more.
