anyone else swear by these little doo dads? maybe it's just because i remember a time before you couldn't even save your game and i'd keep my nes on for 5 days straight at a time trying to beat stuff like ghosts n' goblins, but i have a hard time getting excited about the little ding i get when i kill 50 birds in borderlands or don't give the little twerp a dollar in metro 2033.

on the other hand though, i have a buddy who's reticent to play anything other than xbox even though he has a ps3 because he doesn't want to lose his progress. also, there's a site i look at for cheap game deals and people there will pay an extra 5 or 10$ sometimes just to make sure they can activate a game on steam as opposed to not.... because of achievements.

am i missing something?
