no. theres like 50 people on my psn list and none of them hardly have any trophies.

So I guess they use their PS3 for Blu-Ray instead of games.

It's my opinion that the Trophy system is better than the achievement system by design. The achievement points can seem a little diluted, 5p here, 15p there. Just seems kind of inflated. The trophy system counts up individual trophy's by quality, bronze to silver to etc. So you can see your results clearly. Not to mention they add up to attribute to an overall gamer level, which Level 18 is more identifying that 358315p. Another great thing is the ability to compare trophys among friends, that's not just comparing totals but individual games against friends. They both do essentially the same thing, but with the trophy system you have better interaction and therefore can be more fun to participate in, which is probably why it seems such a big deal on forums, because trophy's can be analyzed nicely.


achievement system also has different kinds of quality. The higher the score, the higher the difficulty. At least it should be this way, though of course there also exist extremely easy silver trophies and hard bronze trophies etc. thus also being inflated.

Gamer Level is just as meaningless as total points. Higher usually only means that one plays more games and not necessarily harder games. Besides 10.000G is better than 5.000G and Level 10 is better than Level 5. Where's the difference ?

I especially don't get the last point, since that is exactly what you can do with achievements too.

Only real difference is the platinum trophy which has also positive and negative attributes.
Negative is (or "can be") that it only counts the original trophy set and you can still get it even though there might be DLC achievements left. Positive is that you can easily see how many games you have completed. On the other hand the Xbox console also shows you how many games you have fully completed (with DLC).
To me a platinum trophy or a 1000/1000G gives me the exact same proud feeling.

This thread is stupid. To many people, This includes SONY and MS fans, are addicted to a stupid pointless system. Lets leave it at that.


It's not stupid and pointless. How is a system that connects & records your progress across multiple games stupid?

Don't have to be a dick about it.

OT: Nope. I know I'm not, as a PS3 fan.

This.



Wow... you are flat out lying. Every single game you owned and platinumed you had to make an announcement for it. every message you sent was about a platinum or easy strategies to get one. Prime reason I just stopped paying attention to your message.

I think he means that trophies allow you to easily see how many games you completed. For example, one platinum trophy means you mastered one game, while 1,000G could have various meanings. (One completed game, a 500g from two games each, or maybe even 10g from 100 games.)

That's a flat out lie. I do send messages sometimes, but not every single time. Also I have friends that do that to me. People like to share their accomplishments. Just because you don't care about the system doesn't make it stupid. Also you haven't been on my friends list in ages because I deleted your ass months ago.

The trophy popping sound is priceless: pingg!
