I thought I was going to get banned anyway, I don't know how it works but I have atleast 4 warnings and 4 point losses..

I don't really have a reason for coming clean, it just went on for to long and I suppose I wanted people to know it was them that were being fooled :P

You had your laugh and I had the final laugh but people didn't believe I actually owned a 360 and not a PS3 so it dragged on a bit lolPS_John

forgive our scepticism, you tend to lie. ALOT. i hope for humanities sake it was all a joke but we aint all ready to forgive and forget just yet, especially if you keep ding these kind of thing, then again they are hilerious so either way i don't care, just don't get banned and give us lots of lulz.

sup Chimpo. PS John, you are the Chicken Little/ Saddam Hussein of System Wars. Even if your words are true, nobody will believe you. You earned that grade of skepticism. And you really need to issue a bigger apology to Chimpo whether your "truth" has any value at all or not. It was very distrspectful of you to drag an unsuspecting gamer into your BS. Thanks for being so cool about it, Chimpo.

Trophies are overrated. I thought I was going to enjoy them a lot, but the truth is they're just a nice addition, nothing else.

Their both merely evolutions of the age old ''HIGH SCORE'' systems of yester years arcades. But in all fairness Acheivments are on every 360 game whilst Trophies are only available to a select few games.

For that reason Acheivments>Trophies

So are top scores in classic games, but people still do them. Why, because its a competition and its fun.

Achievements>>Trophies since achievements are in every single 360 game, unlike Trophies.

How is this even a question?? Trophies are utterly pointless. How can I compare between friends when only a handful of games are supported and the service hasn't been present since the start??

With Achievements I know that EVERY game that person has played has been tracked. With trophies I cannot tell if they have a low score because they haven't unlocked much or if most of their games don't support them. Waste of time.

Uh... Top scores were the whole point of those original games. They lacked stories so they had repeating level and made high scores the goal in the end. Achievement are not a score card. It's checklist of how many games you play. Same with trophies. Video games evolved from the likes of Pac Man and Donkey Kong into a full fledged story telling device. There was no need for score cards anymore unless you're competing. And if someone can spend five bucks renting a game and pass it on easy for 1000 gamer points, thats not competing. Thats "Let's see who can blow the most money!" You need skill to get a high score in Donkey Kong or Pac Man, you don't need skill to get gamer points. Most of those arcade games (Which I assume you've never played due to your awful comparison) didn't even have an end. They just repeated till the system ran out of memory. My goal while playing something like Bioshock r Fallout 3 is to not rack up achievement points. They're a step back in gaming because they don't give you anything. They don't even unlock content.

Can no one see what I'm seeing???

PS_John didn't have a 360 when he wrote in the other thread but he bought one in the weeks between that thread and this thread. Now he is acting as if he had one the whole time and that he is really smart and fooled everyone. BUT NOT ME!!!

If he had a 360 when he wrote in that thread, he would have taken a picture of his 360 and posted it about a day or two into the thread. It would have been much easier for him to post a picture of his 360 than a million pictures proving he doesn't have a PS3.

And PS_John if you did have a 360 at the time you are a fool and I feel sorry for you

FOCKER OUT!!!

Not to Game devs.

Through them they can track what most people do with there games, how much time they spend in each games mode.

This may be why we see less games with epic storys, and more in favour of online play,

[QUOTE="thegoldenpoo"]

you know the drill :D

no in all seriousness who do the two stack up (no ps_john disscussion please)

im having trouble finding out what the difference is, will trophies come with a score?

carljohnson3456

The other thread ended with a cliff hanger... I want to know what the truth is! :lol:

Seriously, they are equals basically.

How is that possible, if most ps3 games, including new releases, dont even have trophies?

Achievements >>>>> trophies
