ThunderPeel2001 Posted March 12, 2011 (edited) I like how they casually point out an inherent flaw in their system. I am now going to buy all the most horrible and boring games that nobody wants to play. Yeah, you can't lose! Well, unless you count "losing" as spending tens of hours of your life playing tripe in order to get to the top of the Idle Thumbs Leaderboard Achievements are great for me at the moment. I'm not remotely interested in my overall score, but I am interested in squeezing more life out of old games I own. Some achievements are really satisfying to unlock.

ThunderPeel2001 Posted August 12, 2011 Just perusing the leaderboards and I noticed some dude in the number 1 spot that I don't recognize... Is it anyone here that I've forgotten? Whoever it is, they kick ass at GH3. http://www.trueachievements.com/leaderboard.aspx?leaderboardid=2656&findgamerid=268418 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThunderPeel2001 Posted August 12, 2011 Whoever it is belongs to over 200 user leaderboards. Well it's now one less. Also, I've made the leaderboard "Request only" -- Hopefully everyone on it can still see it? If there's anyone who doesn't look familiar, let me know.

Sno Posted August 12, 2011 If I was on this list, I would be #5. But I'm not. I am not on this list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Irishjohn Posted August 14, 2011 Also, I figured out why I'm enjoying achievements so much, lately. As I can't afford to buy new games, they're breathing new life into old ones for me. Much fun! My favourite thing about achievements too. Always nice to dig a game out, even for half an hour to run over/shoot/speechify the appropriate number of dudes.

Tanukitsune Posted October 27, 2012 How am I still number 4? I can't even remember the last time I turned on my 360... XP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twmac Posted October 29, 2012 Because the gap between 4th and 5th is about 20 thousand points and that is a lot of time and effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sno Posted November 18, 2012 The 360 version of that is apparently not being released in NA, i'm kind of bummed out about that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
melmer Posted November 18, 2012 Thank god for rising star games! www.risingstargames.com Without them the uk would have missed out on a lot of niche titles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sno Posted November 18, 2012 They have a North American branch too now, they brought out Akai Katana here. (Which is an incredible game, easily the best 2d shooter i've played this entire console generation.) For whatever reason, unless i've been completely misinformed, they've elected to only release the PS3 version of Under Defeat HD in North America. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThunderPeel2001 Posted November 18, 2012 What's going on? Did somebody say "niche titles"? What's this about America not getting them? Can someone explain these things to me? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sno Posted November 18, 2012 What's going on? Did somebody say "niche titles"? What's this about America not getting them? Can someone explain these things to me? Thanks. Under Defeat HD is a remake of a G.Rev-developed 2d scrolling shooter from the Dreamcast days, and Rising Star Games will be releasing it on both PS3 and 360 in Europe, but only on PS3 in North America. It's the kind of thing that myself and literally dozens of other people would care about and be bothered by. (So virtually nobody, i'm saying.) Additional explanation: G.Rev is a noted developer of such games with a long history including collaborations with Treasure of Ikaruga and Radiant Silvergun fame. Rising Star Games is a very small publisher that has frequently brought a lot of these ultra-niche games to Europe and recently opened a North American branch as well. (Their first release was Cave's Akai Katana, which is, again, an incredible game.) Shoot em ups. The topic is shoot em ups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twmac Posted November 19, 2012 GREV also made the massively underrated Senko No Ronde. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sno Posted November 19, 2012 GREV also made the massively underrated Senko No Ronde. YES. That game is completely wonderful. It made me so sad to see western reviews shit all over it when Ubisoft brought it over, we will likely never see its sequel get an international release because of that.
