On that side note...I find the entire world of competitive arcade game scores to be humorous at best.
Again...I guess I shouldn't be one to judge, but it all just seems silly. I watched some greasy, overweight goofball set up his little camera on a tripod and begin the "process" for attempting a record on TMNT: the arcade game. He waddled in on Sat when we were getting ready to leave. I found the entire thing to be insanely pointless...
I have long played games for fun...and only for fun. If they aren't fun, I don't play them. Life is too shitty, and boring, and frustrating to have my hobbies be even more frustrating. I play games to escape and relax...not stress out even more. Setting a scoring record on an arcade game seems like a completely miserable experience.
