About the only thing I like about the whole trophy system are the platinum trophies.  Those are a good idea.  The rest is pretty stupid but the platinum trophies are great. 

 

 

How do you work this logic out?  A lot of 360/PS3 released games have the exact same achievements/trophies.  The only difference is when you get all a games achievements, that is it, when you get all the trohpies, you get a platinum one.

 

Are you saying achievements are stupid also?  Or...?

 

Nope, I love achievements.  Those make sense to me.  What doesn't make sense is why I'm a level 2 gamer, and what it takes to get to level 3?  Also, seeing a person has 42 bronze trophies, 25 silver, 6 gold, and 1 platinum doesn't mean much to me other than they've finished one game.

I simply like numbers better than trophies because I can generally get a better feel for how much that person plays.

Though as I said, I like platinum trophies because that directly shows you how many games the person has finished. Trophies in general though, I think are another wasted effort to try and copy MS.
