A trophy means that many other gamers were going for the same achievement which means that it isn't really anything special anymore (unless it's an insane feat like beating Mega Man 9 without getting hit once). If you ever want to show off, then thinking of an achievement on your own will get you much more praise than doing a task than thousands of others completed. |
There probably would be something similar. There was were Achievements in XBLA games like Braid where you had to beat the game in under a certain amount of time or Limbo where you had to beat the game without dying three times (or something like that). I took one look at those and said "Fuck that!". But I've seen a few people that earned them. They are godly in my book. You could make up an achievement on your own like beating NSMBU without powerups and you could accomplish it.....but nobody will ever know. Wouldn't it be nice to see a little pic or get a little trophy for such an amazing feat? Wouldn't it be cool to show that off to your friends?
