Over the week I purchased three game specifically for the trophies.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune

Pixeljunk Eden

and Super Stardust HD

I must say it's pretty these trophies are pretty addictive!

Not only are these games great but the trophy system gives the game a bit more replay value.

Can't wait till almost all game are accomanied by trophies.

Eh, I don't care too much about trophies. If I have / get a game that does have trophies then I won't go out of my way to collect them. I play my games for fun and I often don't have time to waste trying to get some useless unlockables.

I do. I only bought PJ Eden because of it, yet they seem really hard there!

I already had Uncharted, but i have just played through it again to get the trophies.

I did buy SSDHD, but that was for the game just as much as the trophies, i only have 10 from there.

I have none from PJ, and i think about 26 from Uncharted :)

I was gonna get World Tour, but RB2 having trophies may sway me in that direction instead. I would have bought Madden if it had trophies. I support games who support Sony.

Haha after seeing the difficulty of the trophies in Eden I gave up trying to get all of em pretty easily, so I doubt I will get games for trophies alone.

if you wanted to buy a certain game and you havent yet it just gives you another reason to go buy it. If people just buy the game for trophies then your seriously missing out. I can understand if they sway your jugdement on which system to buy it for then thats fine.

Personally they add something to the game to make it slightly more fun. I hope that some of the fun titles like Assassin's creed, MSG4, Call of Duty 4. Get some. Personally the games that I own like Heavenly Sword, Oblivion, and Timeshift get some. That would make me love those games all over again.

I bought both Stardust HD and Eden to get trophies. However, I would say that I bought Stardust JUST for the trophies (I knew nothing about the game) and it turned out to be an amazing game that i love. Eden I would have bought whether there were trophies in it or not.

Meanwhile, I have no interest in PAIN, even if they do add trophies. Just isn't my kind of game.

I play games for fun. If I happen to receive trophies while playing/enjoying a game, then great. My #1 goal is fun.

I might buy PJE and SSHD, but not JUST because of trophies although that will be a good reason. I just bought my PS3 a couple months ago and I'm trying to expand my library and games with trophies just makes it that much better!

I bought SSHD just to see the system in action, but it ended up being good so no worries. It also did, admittedly, swing me towards Pain, which I was on the fence about previously... if nothing else, trophy add-ons prove that they intend on providing support for the game. I bought PJ Eden because I liked the demo and I picked up Uncharted several months ago.

You got lucky, TC... all the games with trophy support are very good games. But don't fall into the pit I've seen a lot of Xboxers fall into where you find yourself buying lame movie tie-ins and shovelware just for easy trophies! People need to stop rewarding people for making crap games!

I already have uncharted, but I just went back to try out the trophies. I bought SSHD more or less for the trophies, but just playing for the points seem the most fun. I will get bioshock when it comes out, but not for trophies, just to play it.

I don't purchase them for trophies. I purchase them for the gameplay. I saw trophies are just a nice added feature that makes you play the game again to increase it's life span in your disc tray.

No. If a game I like has it then that's great. I don't go out of my way to get trophies though. I replayed Uncharted, and got a good amount of trophies just playing normally. I'm not going to go out of my way in the game to get them.

I wouldn't just buy a game because it has trophies. I think trophies are a plus, but they don't a make a crap game good just because they have them.
