Hello my fellow gamers :D
I just wanted to get your opinion on something.

So i often hear people calling me a trophy whore, i got like 884 trophies.

I usually only get trophys by playing my games, get them as i go. But somethimes yes i do try to get platinum on certain games.

Whould you concider me a trophy whore?
I dont even play that much, i just happen to get trophies easily :S

Well thx for your answers :D dont be to harsh on me

I know ppl that buy games only for the trophies, and they're always searching for games that are easy to plat. That's what I call a trophy wh0re. I don't see what's the point in playing a game that you don't even like

I've had this argument with friends (even though I don't have as many as you do yet). Personally? I think it comes down to the player's motivation. If you are ONLY playing to unlock trophies and, in turn, playing terrible games just BECAUSE they have trophies, you're a trophy whore. I myself prefer the term "trophy hunter" for me. I only play games I like and Platinum ones I really like. Case in point, you'll never see me shooting for the Terminator: Salvation or Hannah Montana Platinums.

I think someone who plays the game for trophies without caring about the story or anything. Like the ones who rent games and just play through them for a platinum.

I never buy games just because of trophies xD

well except one time i picked up godfather because it was like 10 dollars.. and i knew it was a easy plat.. but Infamous ,RE5 , Uncharted 2, Burnout paradise and call of duty 5 are all games i loved playing .. so i just got platinum by playing them =)

Ive seen people with 300 trophies that has 10 platiunmes :O

But like on Call of duty 5 i really enjoy the trophies though .. because im such a big fan of the zombie mode ! I actually managed to get the hardest trophies on map pack 3 within 2 hours :D

Like survive to lvl 20 without buying a single perk ! I was proved of that one for a while hihi:)

Well trophies do give games replay value, but i never focus on trophies untill my second playtrough.


Even though sometimes i come over trophy lists for games that arnt out , like uncharted 2.. I might try and get some of them along the way because i already know how to get them but i will focus on enjoying the singleplayer instead of getting trophies.

The biggest reason why i have alot of trophies is because i have a lot of friends that have the Playstation 3. SO i can just borrow games from them ^^

and sometimes when i buy games i trade 2 in for a new one if i know ill never play it again.

Technically nothing in the poll makes one a trophy hound, personally I reckon a trophy hound is one that buys games for trophies even if he doesn't enjoy the game but would waste money on them just to raise trophy number and level.

Oh and the people who "cheat" to get online trophies..

like killzone 2 just start a room with a buddy and do headshots and get ribbons and crap..

littlebigplanet hit up the forums to get people to heart your levels..

ect..

that is not right, and a huge factor of why trophies are bad..

EDIT - and those people who don't get their own trophies.. like "i'll get you dead space platinum if you get me R2 platinum".. GOD i hate those people..

Buying games JUST for trophies is the only really solid way I can think of, if not it's a very fine line.

nothing from your list, i consider a trophy ***** someone who buys games just for trophies (even if they dont like the game) and also people who buy both the Sonics Ultimate genesis collection and the Mega Drive collection, these games are the same game but one for europe and one for US .

A person who unlocks trophies in their favorite game is not a trophy whore...Unless every single game on the PS3 with trophies is their favorite. I consider trophy whores to be the people who will play garbage like Hannah Montana just to get their next quick fix.

Du har Fat Princess? Synd jeg nettopp solgte konsollen min.... Well...it is better to admit that you are a Trophy ***** if you are one instead of making excuses about not being one. I for one....don't care as much as *cough* Scianix *cough* Doolz.....about what others choose to do with their systems, but i think it's sad people judge eachother this way.

I'll have plenty of trophies as I game on in the years. I bet you I will only have 1-3 Platinum trophies before I finish with the PS3. Anyone that already has 10....it's common sense that you did it for the trophies. :lol:

I agree with him, if trophies become an important aspect by buying a Game, then you can call them Trophy "adicted"

I disagree, a lot of Bronzes to me means u like gaming, and you pick up trophies on the way. Plats to me would be the best out of those options, but the best would buy games for the purpose of just getting trophies.

My def of a trophy whore is someone who buys games just for the trophies even if they have no interest in the game, but to be labeled that bc you have alot of trphies is idiotic someone who has alot of games is bound to get a lot of trophies and its fun to collect all the trophies for that much sought after plat trophy but to buy a game bc it has easy trophies as your sole reason for purchase that makes you some kind of trphy hooker

People who have rediculous amounts of trophy games, and maybe have games that suck, but have easy trophies/achievements.

What does NOT make a trophy whore-

Having platinums for GOOD games, and actually playing things that dont give trophies once in a while.

People who don't spend all their time trying to get that one... last... bronze...

and finally, people who actually have an inkling of an online social life.

Feel free to reply and disagree/ agree.

I agree with some of the folks that have already posted. I would say that if youplay games that are terrible just for trophies, you are a trophy whore. If Hannah Montana is on your played gamelist, there is no denying that you are one.

Imo, to each his own.. if you find grinding trophies fun then go for it, those who do have many trophies aren't who*** . Your PSN level doesn't mean anything, thats what I think anyways ^^ .
