there is some sort of trophy system but GoW collection was published by sony sooo they can do watever they want lol

no because GoW is two games, if for lets say, The orange box had trophies it will mean there would be 5 platinums in it.

Not necessarily- the 360 version didn't have 5000 GS, just the regular 1000.

Does GOW collection really have double the XP of other retail games? That would be similar to a game having 2000GS.

I prefer games to have many Bronze/5GS trophies as while Im not an achievement whore there is an appeal to getting that 'ding' on a regular basis.



Excluding DLC, there's a limit to how many trophy points a game can offer.

The more gold and silver, the few overall trophies.

Look at Killzone, tons of Bronze but more than 80+ trophies. [That's with DLC though]

They made it so it's read as two games and gives you different trophy sets. Meaning 2 plats.

As for the orange box, who knows. Perhaps valve was just lazy j/k

I'm not a huge fan of Sony's trophy system. However, just like XBL gamerscore devs are a-holes sometimes. I find it strange that some achievements/trophys are worth more then ones that are harder to get so same deal.

Developers need to be more creative with trophies/achievements. Some are just dumb while others are fun to try and get.



Now Playing: Crysis 2

Last Finished: BulletStorm

Online IDs: PSN: computermaximus, XBL: computermaximus

I think its a fixed upper score limit for the trophies, depending on whether its a full retail, PSN or DLC.

I wouldn't say developers are being stingy, too many games just fling trophies at you for doing absolutely nothing, only trophies I hate are MP trophies in games where the MP is doa, which basically scream boost or forget me.

but that doesn't make gabe newell any less FAT



I live for the burn...and the sting of pleasure...
I live for the sword, the steel, and the gun...

I really...REALLY hate it when devs make trophies and achievements overly difficult. Uncharted 1, Uncharted 2, and even Fallout 3 do a wonderful job of dishing trophies out. Games like COD, Killzone 2, Resistance 2, do it all wrong. I do not want to dedicate my life to one game, and nothing pisses me off more than completing a game on normal difficulty and only having 20% of the trophies. That's BS.

Actually, the WORST offender of this is Gears of War 1. That game is such a tight wad piece of crap with achievements. I completed the game and only had 80 achievement points from it. Seriously. I know, I played it on easy, but still, 80 points for beating the game. That's such incredible BS.



^ The Killzone 2 trophies are a joke, bunch of random Bronze trophies that are incredibly easy, but time consuming.



Odd. Future. Wolf. Gang. Kill. Em. All. OFWGKTA Don't give a fuck!

Fuck Steve Harvey. FREE EARL!

Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be the GREATEST game EVER made!!!

I'd take a bullet for Square-Enix!
