Excuses excuses.
TBH, when people go all "Lol, people who do X have no lives" I want to smack them, because it makes them sound incredibly ignorant and self absorbed.
Because hey, if someone is happy doing X, let them do it.

Read my stories!cute: Because we like to get the most out of a game.
Granted, I don't try for absolute most. It's just that if I see something collectible in a game I ABSOLUTELY. MUST. COLLECT IT.

Banned entirely for telling FE that he was being rude and not contributing to the discussion. I shall watch down from the goon heavens.The "they don't have lives" or "why do they waste their time like that" thing bothers me. You're wasting your time too. You're just doing it in a fashion that you enjoy.
As for why I try for 100% runs...OCD tendencies.
If someone wants to accuse us of eating coconut shells, then that's their business. We know what we're doing. - Achaan ChahErock: I got all the beads and at least one of every treasure, that much I remember.
I didn't get at least one of every fish, but the next time I return to playing that will change.

'Course, I am not a huge gamer, I only really play if the mood strikes me, plus I still need to get back to playing LA Noire.
Anyhoo…
- Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog comics, because of the grand amount of world-building it's done for the Sonic franchise, if only in this one medium. I haven't read since around issue 207, though, since I forgot to renew my subscription and haven't gotten around to catching up yet.
- Electric Light Orchestra. I don't care what you think, these guys made some of the best music imaginable. A New World Record is one of my top five favorite albums.
- The Beatles. Everyone else in this thread that's mentioned being a defender of theirs nailed it. Plus, I am a huge Beatlemaniac.
- Tommy: The Movie. While I still say the musical and the album were better, I don't think I ever fully understood the plot of Tommy until I saw the movie.
- Ne-Yo's song "Beautiful Monster": Because of how So Bad, It's Good it is. Here's a fun drinking game—take a shot every time you hear the phrase "I don't mind" in that song!
- The Naked Brothers Band: The Movie. I think it's a genuinely enjoyable mockumentary. So sue me.
- Animaniacs, the gold standard for animated comedy in the modern age.
- The Weird Al Show, due to the horrific amounts of Executive Meddling. Although the DVD Commentary for the series is much more entertaining that the actual show itself.
- Green Day. I just don't get what the big deal is over whether or not they're punk. Who cares? Do you like the music? Yes? No? Either way, stop trying to overanalyze its possible genre!
I should note, however, that I'm very prone to making fun of the things that I love.

Insert witty and clever quip here. My page, as the database hates my handle.Wait, that happened already?

So...you like Transformers in general then, not just the movies. Because that's the basic plot of EVERY Transformers series. Their reception all depends on execution.
On topic: Most of Nintendo's franchise's, especially Super Smash Bros.
I'll defend my favorite video game, Legend of Legaia for as long as it takes. Because there's no one else to take the mantle.

I never did get why video game players always try for 100%.....
