It motivates me to replay games and try things that I wouldnt ordinarily do. Some of them are a bit too obscure to bother trying with, but others just extend a game.
Most games i CBA collecting them all because they require you to play online, and some games just suck at online mulitplayer... want to know where i stand on online mulitiplayer? Check my blogs people.
For completionists and bragging rights over other people. Im trying to go for 100% in GTA but im not sure if i ever will since getting rank 10 online is going to take forever and i still need fly the co op trophy.
I ignore them. I wish there was a way to turn off the notification when you unlock one, it tends to get on my nerves. Whether a game has replay value or not depends entirely on how fun that game was for me.
It adds to the replay value of the game but sometimes it gets frustating.eg-finish the game on the highest difficulty,i hate this trophy the most but dont know why i end up trying to get it.

I don't care about bragging rights at all. It's kinda stupid imo.
I like them because I like collecting things and seeing that 100%. When I look at my friends' trophies, it's to see what they're playing and how far they're in the game. Not to see if they have more or less than I do.
Just personal preference. I'm going for the platinum in RE5 which I've nearly done. But it's resulted in me playing through it 4 times. I'm kinda sick of the game now, I doubt I'll play it again after getting the platinum.

yeah i just like getting them,but i hardly change my actions or go out of my way to get them lol... there is another topic on this board about a guy who will not play games if hey have too much bronze trophies ex: he will not play bioshock cuz it has 60 bronze trophies and only 2 gold, thats really dumb... i think he took a handful of stupid pills or something bwwwwwaaaaaaaaah!
I'm kind of a perfectionist/completionist when it comes to gaming and these help me judge where I'm at. Also, while I replay most of my games a few times anyway, it gives me a feeling of accomplishment the second/third time through when I pick up a trophy for doing something a different way.
Overall, I think they're great. I don't understand why anyone would have an issue with them except on a game like Dead Space or Bioshock where it ruins the atmosphere a little bit to have it ding in the top right corner.
platinum trophy would give you the most satisfying feeling, sometimes gold trophies, It adds replayability, I spent more time trying to get trophies for burnout than finishing the game itself
Well me personally can't really get into them.I tried but I really can't do it.But people unlock them for the following reasons
Bragging rights
They use it as a tool to track progress
They are completist
They love to unlock things

Ditto, my exact sentiment. I tried to unlock all the trophies in Uncharted, but it ceased being fun and just started to feel like work.
Cause alot of the times it does feel like work, especially for those one that require you to do such and such so many times. Some trophies/Achievements can add great things to game.Not on the PS3, but in Crackdown and Dead rising the achievements were all fun to try and unlock. If game devs were to make all of them fun and not out of the way and annoying there would be no problems. I can't really stand ones like Kill X amount of people online or use a specific power X amount of times. That and with these new additions of trophies/achievements alot of people are starting to forget the actual game it's self.
and of course all games aren't supported for trophies. I have gotten immersed in Oblivion and get no trophies from that but I enjoy playing it no less.
Trophies are pointless and worthless. It's like winning a bag of air.

air is neither pointless nor useless, without it you wouldnt be typin that kinda uneducated junk on the internet lmao xD (JKZ) nah im kiddin id love to win air id keep it in my cupboard for when the terrorists start usiin bioligical weapons ;)
well i get trophies for myself.. if it was up to me i rather have in game awards that aren't shown to the public, but are in every single game.. i kind of like how uncharted did it, their unlockables and trophies were the same so you were getting bonus stuff for doing trophies.. same with genesis collection, i liked watching the videos about the games.. just wish all games did something like that.
I was kinda addicted to the trophies in the beginning, trying to get every single one but nowadays I don't care as much. I kinda used em to continue playing games that I got bored of for ex, I thought trophies in GTA would make me play the game over but it didn't so meh
whats really annoying is in some games like unreal tournament 3 which just got trophies i finished the game and did everything but now that the trophies came in i dont have any trophies for it lol, right now i dont really care for trophies if it means having to go out of my way to get one, if u have a chance to get one like in killzone 2 where u have a constant respawn and a sniper then get the 15 head shot trophy otherwise theres not much of a point for me.
