I don't think they prove anything aside from the fact that they can be very addicting or that some people enjoy showing off way too much.

I think it depends on how long a person has had their PS3. If they've had it since launch, 500 trophies seems pretty reasonable. If they've had it for a few months, they need to get a life. I am around 150 and I've had mine for a month and a half. I'm not sure if that's a little sad or not.

I enjoy getting trophies because it adds to the game, it's a neat concept, and they're kind of fun to go and look at once in a while. Only buying games with trophies or playing simply to get trophies (Terminator, Hannah Montana plats, I'm looking at you.) is sad no matter which way you slice it.

Not necessarily. A majority of the trophies I've gotten are extremely easy. They are getting harder to come by now. If I do make it to 500 trophies and I've only owned by PS3 for six months, I will gladly admit that I am sad. Plus you're always going to play your system a lot more when you first get it. Hopefully, I'll make it outside soon. Ha ha

Absolutely, 100% and it will be worth every cent. From the looks of things, Bioshock 2 is going to be one of those sequels that require you to play the first game to really understand and enjoy it.

I love Fallout 3 and am anxiously awaiting the GOTY edition. Oblivion is pretty good, but the story got kind of bland for me after a while. I might give it another shot since it's relatively cheap and looks beautiful. I picked up Sacred 2 today. Not bad so far, but it isn't anything special either.

Wasn't there one of these just a day or two ago?

I think racing games can be fun, but I have never really gotten into them any deeper than that. I've been hearing great things about Burnout Paradise. Is is a good game to get for a casual gamer in the racing genre?

On another note, great update. I agree the old one was getting to big.

I have never had mine connected through a wired connection, but I can't complain one bit when it comes to playing RE5 online.

I'm getting a PS3 within a week and I have money to buy ANY 2 games out of the following list, I really can't decide: 1- CoD4 (I already finished it on my xbox but I wanna prestige again and it a real fun waste of time) 2- Killzone 2 3- Resistance 2 4- Burnout Paradise 5- Metal Gear Solid 4 6- SOCOM 7- Bioshock 8- BF:BC I'd prefer something with a really good online to keep me going till modern warfare 2. Any help is really appreciated. Maqda7

Bioshock does not have online, but it is still a must buy.
