tbh nothing on this site would be classified as a first world problem, especially your replies.

and if nintendo did have trophies, I would consider making the centralised location nintendo over sony, ofcourse this is not an option since they do not offer the service or the third party games.


Really? You're admitting that your issue is even more trivial than a first world problem? That just makes it all the more amusing that it was bugging you enough to even bring it up in a post.

This is what's making it amusing. You're attempting to rile me up by saying that Nintendo fucked up and turned you off as a potential customer.  To that I'd say "Yes, they do that. They're a corporate entity. Corporate entities don't care about you, only your money". You do realise that applies to all three companies, right?

As for trophies themselves, if somebody gets their rocks off watching a visual representation of a memory location turning from a 0 to a 1 in a collection, more power to them...

technically all games are a visual representation of changing memory, just some games represent it better than others and offer more control....

do you know which brand of system is the least capable in terms of this presentation?

ofcourse, if we go into it that far then it wont matter will it?



Nothing.

PS1->2->3->4

The most varied and wide console experiences have always been offered on Sony systems for me.

Ah but you see, unlike achievements, memory in an actual game engine is constanty changing. It's a dynamic mode of changing, as opposed to a static "once-off". Surely you realised that, right?

No? Well what kind of simplistic games do you play that maintain this lackluster state of programming? Surely it's not just those types that have absolutely no merit whatsoever, other than adding to your big achievement collection of 1s...Must be quite a daunting chore, escpecially on "superior hardware" to shift those bits over. It makes you defend the maker of your hunk of plastic to the very end...



I ended up owning a Wii PS3 and Xbox 360 so its not the console itself its the games that guide my purchase.
A console needs rpgs for me to pay attention.

well the fact that you have to compare the trophy system which is an add-on to games, with other 'actual games that dont have a trophy system is a complement itself.

You proved that the more memory that changes, the better the experience must be so PS4 is definately the choice of console for you with 8GB GDDR5 memory.

You replying to me must be a chore as well, yet you still do it even though youre not defending the maker of your hunk of plastic. oh yeah that reminds me....so what exactly are you doing here?



PS1 to PS2 to Xbox to Xbox 360 to PS3 to Xbox One.

The way your first post describes it, you cannot live without it, letalone the thought of it being in more than one place. Then again, you let a picture get you riled up to the point where it's still eating at you....

You're saying that indiscriminate flicker and randomness is the ultimate experience in gameplay, since it would involve the most memory locations changed at the one interval? Geez, the games YOU must play to get these trophies/achievements. The fact that it's clearly the most powerful consile, yet there are people who STILL feel indifferent towards it must eat you up inside more than that pic, mustn't it?

Why leave now? Every post that you make only shows off your desperation to retaliate all the more. All this over a little pic. It's hilarious! Keep going.



Ah...I haven't. I expand the family :)

lol funny how much s**t your brain thinks of. The trophies was just a 'plus' that I added to the end of my comment and you are making all these assumptions about gameplay and power. (the one about the ultimate experience in gameplay made me ROFL)

Its obviously annoyed you more than anything since you have had to stoop to such a level. Surely its not because you think im important or my opinion matters, so why dont you spit it out....whats your agenda?
