Forums - Sony - PS3 Trophies and how they underachieve

Ajescent on 03 May 2009

Cuz you know when BC was around, people went out in their droves to buy the ps3- no wait...that was a lie.

Mand't- instal, when in doubt blame Sony, they forced the 3rd parties at gun point to do it.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.

They seem exactly the same to me...

does anyone else feel the writer of the article kept claiming things about Trophies yet could materialize why he thought that? What I see from his words is....
"Achievements are better because........well.....they just ARE!"

I personally think Trophies are a much better gauge of your E-Penis then Achievements. Mainly because of it's "LEVEL" like architecture. When you achieve a certain amount of trophies, oh look at that, my E-Penis just grew an inch. Makes it much easier to interpret to me. No one wants to have to read "51232934123g vs 51232934125g" the fact that one is bigger then the other feels so trivial in this sense.

His gripes about load times and stuff are ridiculous as well, 360 has load times too before you can view your trophies, it just doesn't show you the bar that lets you know it is loading. The XMB is no more laggy then the 360 UI.

omg that made no sense, achievements/trophies are the same thing. your article should be about why xbl is better than psn, and not about why achievements are better than trophies.

Sony listens to their userbase???? Huh you could have fooled me.....is that why they REMOVED BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY??

And is that also why sony forced a blu-ray format down your throat that has nothing to do with gaming...except mandatory installs.

champion fanboy right here.

for god sake.

Trophies = Achievments

People may prefer one or another but they are bias. They are more or less the same bar bit here bit there.

True for the most part, both get gamers to spend more time playing their games and encourage brand loyalty.  I prefer achievements and the entire unified gamercard but thats my preference built up through more play time on the 360.  For those of you discussing which is a better gauge of your "epenis", you really need to get out more, they're fun not some metric of gamers skill!

exactly. I prefer trophies. Thats because i play a PS3. But i can accept that they are more or less the same.
