Scoring and Saved Games: How They Change The Ways We Play

kotaku_deepthoughts.jpgTwo of my good friends and colleagues have put up thoughtful pieces on their respective blogs about how we play videogames. On Level Up, N’Gai posted a column about how our saved game files are actually worth more than a $US 60 game. N’Gai calculates that his Mass Effect saved game is worth $US 122.10. His point: We should back up our saved games more often. And at MTV’s Multiplayer Blog, Stephen Totilo posted a fascinating essay on how Rockstar’s removal of the scoring system in Manhunt 2 changed the way he played through the final version. Was Stephen a tamer killer with scoring or without? Go find out!
