I'd say MS still invented achievements because when you say 'achievements' ppl r thinking of that universal point system that works towards a larger goal, and that was a unique invention that will stay in gaming for all time. 

Achievements dramatically changed the way so many gamers play their games, so in hindsight it will be one of the really huge things to be remembered from this gen.

 (but I'm in no way critizicing Sony for copying, I just say give credit where credit is due)

 

Yeah for the worst IMHO. Some people give too much credit to achievments and trophies and disregard completely the quality of a title as long as they can get a larger e-penis thanks to it. It's truly pitifull. Don't get me wrong I like online play and I'm all for competition in games, but this is not competition it's just vaunt.

 

Or they completely disregard a game because it doesn't have trophies.

I saw plenty of these the last few days.

Poster#1 - "Valkyria Chronicles is on sale for $29.99! You should pick this up while it is still cheap!"

Poster#2 - "I would if it had trophies, but unfortunately it doesn't. So i'll pass."

 

That makes me sad.
