Yeah i don't even look at the list either. Personally I don't really go out of my way to get trophys. If i get them while playing through the game then pretty much thats all the trophys i'll get. I've never replayed a game to try and get trophys. I like getting them while playing through the game, just won't put the game on specifically to collect trophys.

oddly enough my favorite games for the ps3 all dont not have trophy support

not sure if lack of trophys some how enhanced the game

or if the developer spent more time on other elements of the game instead of implementing trophys

or if the game just turns out to be more fun if you just play it instead of looking at what trophys your getting

I look at the list, and then try and achieve on my first playthrough without putting much effort in. I put more effort in to get trophies in my second playthrough.

I look at the list before I begin playing. I try to figure out which ones I'll try to get, and which ones I won't bother getting, then go from there.

Trophies just happen when I play.

To be honest, of all that I've seen. The trophy "goals" are rather stupid and pointless. Play a level a hundred times? Yet, people call that "replay value":lol::lol:

I just play the game and ever so often I hear a certain noise only to look up and see that I've gotten a trophy for something.

Very true. I just don't know why people buy into it. I thought people replay games because they liked it? lol

Now, that's not even a reason anymore. People need to feel "forced" to replay a game. Not out of enjoyment or anything. Because they get a little icon:lol:

I only tried to get a platinum trophy once and I hated it. It turned a game I enjoyed into a game I could no longer stand. What's more is I didn't even get the platinum trophy. :lol:

I mainly get them for more challenge. Sure I'm not rewarded with something other than a virtual medal. But I like to go for trophies for the sake of challenge or a reason for collecting in-game things (back when getting all the collectibles in a game gave you something like a new car. It's essentially the same thing, just one you can show off AND drive, the other you can just show off.)

I think we should just leave topic to rest. There is no way I would be able to change your opinion and you change mine with our mutual dislike for each other

How can you make that arguement when coins had so many different roles in so many games since the NES days? In some games, it got you in game items. Other game, it kept you alive. At least it had a purpose right? Even if it is in a game.

That only works for system wars kiddies who actually get jealous or something...:lol:

Not even realizing how much of a sad image they paint themselves with. What really makes me laugh my nads off is when they actually try to use something so insignificant as an insult towards you. "At least I have more trophies than you do!" or "I have a better K/D ratio than you do!"

Always entertaining, yet sad at the same time.:lol:

Oh ok, gotcha.

But even still, they hold some value and they're physically there. People collect coins just the same as people collect paintings. They're works of art. They're not collecting run of the mill quarters and dimes you get from a store. You can't compare that to trophies my friend. That doesn't even hold as a counter to the fact.

Trophies are fun. That explains how and why I get them.

It's just something to kill time when I have time to kill. That's why I don't have very many, because I have a life.

Well, it is a fad that needs to die. People tend to forget what video games are about or what they're for.

I think they're for the mainstream and it's recent plague of short attention spans, trotting along with just about everything else that goes on these days. Especially with media.

They are just ones hobby or something to collect, who said something has to be tangible in order to collect it?

Yep....Till then all we can do is hope. I mean I can understand the concept of wanting to be rewarded, but I though the game would have been enough of a reward it's self.....Unless your playing a really crappy one just for the easy trophies.

I've been back a while now. :P I bet Jesus would make video games with parables and stories from the Bible in them. Not sure what He'd think about trophies though. :P

Yeah I guess just like half of religion we will never know 100%. And if he did make them lets hope they would be better than the ones already released over the years.

thanks for all yur replies, i was genuinly curious as to how ppl percieve trophies on the ps3. seems mainly you either love em or hate em. for me its a love/hate thing. esp as half of my games are old an'd don't have trophies, thus psycologicaly in MY mind come further down my playlist. its a damn shame. they are here to stay whatever happens as too many ppl scream for them even in old games. (me?) and on that note i'm off to play waw as it has easy ones i can get. (am loving the game too, only got it the weekend). peace.
