I presume they're just very expensive. Even more so if you have to secure them and connect them up to a banking network.
Anything can be bought with enough money... like the bank itself.
Those sites don't look that complex, and aren't that bad run through Google Translate. Probably the complex-looking symbols of Japanese are overemphasizing the sites' clutter.
No, but seriously, I don't farm them, I don't obsess, but I like seeing a sense of purpose when idling the time away in a game. It's nice to see "what left you have to accomplish". Although I despise when "accomplish" is equated to "spent days idling in a corner killing any random zombies the AI decided to throw my way to keep me on my toes". Screw that.
I hate it when achievement descriptions tell you what's going to happen in the game. Or you get an achievement just for reaching a checkpoint in a game.
Achievements should make me feel like I've actually achieved something (e.g. Man vs Tank in L4D), rather than something that would have happened simply as a course of playing the game (e.g. Trusty Hardware in HL2)

+1 for consumers, -1 for enterprises?
Or the old joke of ExpertsExchange. Apparently that's why they put the dash in the URL - to stop it being read or blocked as ExpertSexChange.
Funny how Valve w/ sarcasm = Infinity Ward.
Or it could be played.... you know, the way it was designed to be played
You can learn something from everything.
Well, only the elite will get the reward anyway.
It would make more sense for them to send the location via the least specific method Core Location can do - the cell network.
