Top sum this up. Raptr is a social networking site, like XFire, but better. It has everything from Forums, Achievements, Reviews, and anything from that sort. There is also a rewards system. This reward system gives out FREE merchandise or coupons if you meet a certain requirement in a certain game, which is fairly easy. You also get widgets such as the one i'm going to post in my signature in a second. Maybe ya should try it out?
