I have no platinums at all and I play a ton of games, I guess that means im not a trophy hunter.
I don't go hunting for them but its nice to hear that sound when I achieve one. It gives a sense that completed something and could look back on it.
I try to get as many as I can. Its fun when they're awarded for doing additional things, rather than 'you completed chapter 1'. So in that respect it adds more value to the game in my eyes.-Fromage-

This is why I try and get some trophies. Great trophy lists make you explore places you might not otherwise or maybe try a different combat tactic. You get the most out of some games by going for trophies.
When I finish a game, I'll take a look and see what I need in order to get the plat. I have played a few games that only require an additional 15-20 minutes to get the trophy, so I give it a go. If the game is enjoyable enough to replay several hours in order to 100% it, I don't mind that either. I hate seeing anything less than 100% for any game in my trophy list, not as a hunter, but as a completionist.
I have also played many games that require you to play online, so there goes that plat for me going in. I see no reason we should have to earn MP trophies in order to totally complete a game. Unless MP is the primary element. Hopefully Sony changes that policy next gen. If we're required to pay to play online, online trophies should just be a bonus.
I use to be... until I attempted to get 100% on the puzzle game Catherine....
*shivers* .... note to self... never attempt to get 100% on a puzzle game ever again.... :(
I always play the game first just for fun, never thinking about trophies at all, if the game is fun and it has replay value, then I will consider trying to platinum it, normally at a later date. If the game has online requirements for trophies then I will skip trying to platinum it.
Online trophies are annoying to me, and sometime annoying to the people you're playing against. Personally I think getting rid of online trophies would give some games more replayability, but I could be in the minority with that, oh well it is what it is. Â Â
I would quit gaming if there were no trophs. If a game doesn't have trophs, I won't buy it.SantaTerbThat's quite sad. One wonders how you played games in the 90's when no games had achievements/trophies. But then again, this type of mentality doesn't really surprise me these days.

I'm not going back to cooking over an open fire, watching glass tube television sets or rotary phones either. Gaming has changed. Trophies are the lifeblood. They ARE gaming.

How long did those minigame challenges take you?

If I really like a game and would enjoy spending extra time with it, and if the platinum doesn't require any ridiculous trophies like play online for 1,000 hours, then I'll go for the platinum probably. If I don't care much for a game or if the trophies are ridiculous I'm quite happy to skip it though.

Had no problem replaying any of the Sly titles. They were fun games. Just looked at my gamercard info for them(minigames) 11:49 was my time. I hoped for more tasks, but brevity is welcomed too. Got to leave us yearning for more. Played Sly 4? I'm curious about it. It'll be some time before I have a chance to play it.
Yeah, I'm a trophy hunter. But I just do them for the challenges. They just give me something to do, ya know.

[QUOTE="dalger21"][QUOTE="SantaTerb"] You wana say that to my trophy card's face? Come at us bro.SantaTerbThe amount of platinums and trophies you have on an irrelevant trophy card means about as much as nipples on men. You're reaching and not especially clever, but the point is it clearly shows I live and die by the troph and am not just trolling. With a completion rate as low as yours I'm not sure I believe you. Especially with that lifeblood claim. If anything you're saying is true, you're lookin pretty anemic.
