If it's a good game it shouldn't matter because you'll be playing it a lot anyway.

Yeah, I agree. PURE is a good example. When it came out, I was tempted to buy it but had other games in mind. When they patched the game with Trophies weeks ago, I decided to take the plunge and buy it. Of course, being a Trophies collector, I was aiming for the Platinum but while the Trophy list had some online Trophies, there was nobody online. That kinda pissed me off.

Yeah I hate to see multiplayer trophies in shooters. I was shooting for the plat on FEAR 2 as well, but after seeing only FOUR people playing on a saturday night, I didn't think it was a realistic goal to set. Shooters get old very quickly and players jump to the next one as soon as it releases, leaving the ones before it to die. Its close to impossible to get any of these online trophies, even boosting would take forever.

Like someone said above, depends on the game. Games like Killzone 2 have lots of players playing online whereas GTAIV not so much.

I think trophies need to be wiped out all together. People need to play games for the games. Reasons like this are a part of why I think it actually ruins games.

online trophies are fine..

the online trophies that are in games are not..

trophies should be based on your skill level and yours alone.. so many online trophies in games rely on other people to do certain things.. that's so dumb..

I don't like them. There will be a certain point where they will become impossible to get.

Honestly, why does it even matter? The trophy system is just a ploy to get people to buy games they might otherwise pass on. Playing games use to just be about having fun.

Everybody has different opinions on the trophy/achievements, and Im not going to bash anyone for their opinion. But could you please explain, in any way how they ruin games.

I mean personally, I too play gamesfor the games..........but in no way see how having them added in could possibly ruin it. Whether they hae them or not you would still be playing the exact same game, it would be no better and no worse without them. The only thing they do at ALL is give people who have already beaten the game and do like them something else to do. Kinda like a sidequest in a game, its not something you have to do, just something to keep you playing. Other than that, I cant find anything wrong with them. Like I said, im not saying your opinion is bad or anything, I have just never heard any good reason as to why they ruin games.

The games only have online trophies because they don't want to change the list from achievements and they have online achievements probably nudged by MS, to promote online play a.k.a gold accounts.

This is what I was going to say. Since achievements were first I don't doubt that MS wanted to use online achievements as a way to advertise and promote its online service.

IMO that's a very dumb idea to promote an online game

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I think I wouldn't have a problem if games had multiplayer trophies, but they didn't count towards Platinum. It's just not fair when you have to work towards trophies that don't depend on your own skill, but rather just working with random people in hopes that it turns out well.

I dont play online so it kinda makes it hard to get any platinums. Id like them to have "bonus" trophies for online so those of us that play single player can still get platinum.

I agree. Trophies should be for single player campaign only. I mean, what is the point with FEAR 2? Half the trophies are for multiplayer not single player. That is why I only have about 35% complete for it.

Thank you, sir. I couldn't agree with you more.
