I simply get as many achievements as possible for the games that I like, which is not that many. So much money thrown away; I'm sure most of the games he plays, he doesn't even care for.
I checked his gamercard and he hasn't played Braid. I'm better than him.

Live in your parents basement, deny yourself any romantic relationship, and quit your job.

I'm not a Cheevo chaser but I understand why people do it; it's basically a game within a game. I just don't have time to fully engage in it...

Gotta be a virgin first. And gotta have some money and need to cut a sponsorship deal with a fastfood restaurant to get supplied for the next 5 years. The rest is easy. But really, joking aside, being in a decent relationship, having a job and doing things you like and having more than 600k gamerscore is amazing.

I love achievements, but im not wasting my money on The Hanna Montana games to get them.

Knightofelemia5396d ago (Edited 5396d ago )

I would be embarassed to have Hannah Montana the videogame in my achievement history.
I looked at this guys account on XBL and he has High School Musical in his history. Funny thing is he has japanese games on his account along with 2 versions of Army of Two one from EU and one from Asia I thought the Xbox was region locked.

Would love to see more DF Retros from John now that they can come up with their own ideas.

DefenderOfDoom2304d ago (Edited 304d ago )

I just watched a DF video from John featuring the new Gradius collection. Gradius is one my favorite NES games ! And now at QuakeCon 2025 they just released a remastered Heretic and Hexxen bundle by Nightdive and ID Software. So DF featuring John released a video today talking about the Hexxen and Heretic bundle . Good times.

I love DF-crew, they are experts at what they do and I'm so happy for this!

I believe in these guys more than anyone else!

I overall don't like podcasts either but these guys make it fun for me at least! :D

Xbox Series X best place to play 3rd party. Oh it must be a glitch or tools because Series X is worse.
I don’t understand why this keeps happening.
Doesn’t sound like an expert to me.

Andy_Dee301d ago

Doesn't make any sense what you are saying. They are experts in their field in my opinion, we don't have to share it. That's ok.

But something doesn't always have to have an explanation as well. If they can't understand why it's happening they aren't lying about it. They honestly can admit that they do nut understand something, usually they reach out to that specific company etc. then to try and get a better understanding.

If you don't like em, don't watch em.

gold_drake304d ago

thats great that u enjoy them, but you shouldnt just believe everything these guys say either.

Andy_Dee301d ago

I didn't say I believe everything they are saying. I believe in them more than anyone else in this business because I feel they do not shy away from getting into specifics. Lot's of ppl just try to say something and then there's no source or no explanation as to why. Just saying it for reactions, clicks you name it.

These guys love the field they work in and I can feel that when I listen to them. That might be just for me but I enjoy them a lot.

PS5 Pro Console 4k Reveal Trailer – PlayStation 5 Pro Announcement

Admin note: We are allowing this submission as it provides a 4k trailer on YouTube and we have to link to an IGN article. Thank you Purple101 for the submission.

Sony has announced the PS5 Pro, an upgraded version of the PlayStation 5 capable of higher frame rates, better ray-tracing, and improved graphical fidelity."

Petebloodyonion634d ago

I recall in the past, my friend attempted to demonstrate the superiority and importance of using an S-video cable for PS1 games compared to the original RCA cables. He would pause the game and switch the video output settings so I could notice the differences.

or it reminds me of the 1080P vs 900P debate.

Honestly even at 4K I can barely see the difference aside frame rate.
