I am, I bet Uncharted months ago but now that it has trophies I've gone back to it and have been playing it all day. I'm missing two trophies and thats my goal to get them tommorow:P I also like the fact that none of my friends have trophies because theres only 3 games that have them:P

I've only beat Uncharted once. I tried to do a second run but it got too boring for me for some reason.

That's my problem at the moment. I'm only forcing myself to do it for the last couple trophies. I'd say I'm addicted to them, but I'm not gonna buy Buzz just for them.

No not really, it's fun getting them, but other than that they're still pretty useless, especially if you already did the requirements a year before lol

I'm not too addicted to trophies, but they have made me buy games a little more quickly than I would have (Uncharted, SSHD) and were the deciding factor for other games (like PJE). Bioshock will probably be bought more quickly now, and some games will probably have the trophies making the difference. I won't not buy a good game if doesn't have trophies (like SCIV) but I will let a game that I'm so so on let the trophies make me buy it. Although trophies are useless, really, gaming in general is useless when you think about it.

It doesn't give you the sense of accomplishment like Achievements do. :(

PS3 Trophies came too late IMO.

im possibly the opposite of you. i beat that game 3 times. and i found it a blast, and that was before trophies came out. its been that way for me for as long as i remember. i can beat a game 6 times and still enjoy every second of it.

I will be when its a requirement for every game to have them. I think I may pick up SSHD and PJE just because they have trophies and I need a few more good games. I have most of the Uncharted trophies already. I think I have maybe like 5 more, but I only rented it so that's still pretty good. I might ask for it for Christmas, but by then I'll have about 10 more games to get so I'm not sure how high up on the list that'll be...

Leveling system??? Xbox 360 has a ranking system for achievements. My Ps3 is collecting dust until some quality games come out in the fall. PS3 online is super laggy. The Free network thing is dumb because it allows people with crappy internet services to play and ruin other peoples connection.

Vengent25

They did come to late, Sony should of realized that Achievements where the reason alot of people would choose a 360 game over the PS3 version. Its just to late know, I have a good Achievement score and will still buy the 360 version for that reason. MS came up with a pretty sweet idea including Achievements from day one, genius a very smart business plan.

for my self im not addicted per say i like the option of doing it but im also not going to go and buy a game that is just now getting them. i own uncharted and ssdhd so that's why i got them for those games.. what is really needed fortrophies is being able to collect them from the first day the game comes out. as for burnout ill prob just rent it and only play it long enough for it to give me the ones for the junk i did when i wanted to play it..... which was when it came out...

I hate to say: the trophies piss me off a little.

I wish they had put their resources more into allowing us to play whatever music we want in whatever game. That's the only thing I envy of the 360 players. Yay I'll be able to play whatever I want in Warhawk eventually but the Williams-like soundtrack of Oblivion is starting to get a little stale.

The trophies (as far as I can tell) seem pretty worthless for me. I guess they'll be a little cool when we can decorate Home or if we get free points to buy PSN stuff with them but otherwize, I really couldn't care less.

What? I'm sorry, but I'm having trouble believing you have a PS3 if you say things that are just not true. I have no issue with lag, and every game I've gone online with has told me what kind of connection quality I was getting. I have yet to have a problem, and I don't see why ANYONE should want to pay for a free service that works well.

Then again, maybe it's the dust messing with your experience ;)

Right now, trophies have been the incentive to play Uncharted again. I do a little more exploration this time around, and look for more headshots and such but I'm not trophy crazy. Just playing through the game again to see what trophies I earn along the way.

I haven't popped in Burnout yet though. I heard about retro active trophies somewhere here. Hmmm... I better go check out the Burnout page. If it is retroactive, I think I might pop that in tonight ;)

I agree totally. Unfortunately there's nothing they can do about games that have already come out (like Oblivion). The developer has to be willing to work on a downloadable update for us, and that's out of Sony's hands. Unfortunately background music for Oblivion is probably not THAT big of a deal for most, so we can't even hope to band people together to call or write letters to Bethesda to get it done :P

Why is it that people immediately assume that someone doesn't have a PS3 as soon as they make one negative comment about it? On topic though, I'm not addicted to trophies because they're not in any game that I currently own. I'm not gonna buy Pixel Junk Eden or Super Star Dust to get them. I am looking forward to when every game has them though, because I will most likely be addicted when that happens.

skittle, you must be dumb. When I play online with my friends. We are the only people that use mics. Most adults play on Xbox 360 anyways. There is a game called Gears of War on it, that drives adults crazy. lol

I know Ps3 is getting games like God of War 3, LBP, Infamous and shooters which I will never get again for the PS3.

I admit I'm a sucker for trophies. I was a sucker for achievements on the 360. I just deleted ALL of my Uncharted data. I'm starting from scratch. woo!. I think the trophies for Burnout Paradise are coming pretty soon, so yeah, I'm addicted.!

My assumptions are not to start a "console war". It's when things said are NOT factual it's annoying to read. No lag for me yet (except for Smackdown) and no difference in speed or quality between Xbox 360 and PS3.

Sorry for going off topic, but I at least wanted to respond in my defense so as not to be misunderstood.

I understand that the third party support would be needed to have it fully integrated with the game. That would be totally cool but I still don't see why they can't do it all cheesy like and just let you play whatever playlist over whatever's plaing on disc (weather it be a game or a movie): like it is on the 360. Sure it's not perfect, but it's simple and the only 360 feature I want.

I am addicted. I didn't think trophies where a big deal at first. I one of the people who thought achievements were stupid but this has added a whole nother dimension to the game. I have fun competing with my friend.

At first I was super-insane about getting them, but I have faded from that now.

I am glad though that Sony added them to games. It allows a new dimension to be taken on each game (particularly Uncharted).

I am not addicting to trophies. I will never buy a game based off of trophies and if a trophy seems impossible for me to get then I would just leave it as a trophy that I will not be having at the moment. If games implement a trophy system similar to Uncharted, then maybe I will become addicted to trophies.

I'm totally addicited to them. I think it helps when your online buddies and you are competing against each other. The competive juices definitley start flowing. When your bud starts to talk smack about how he just got another hard to get trophy that you don't have yet.

I just think it makes a game more fun to play because you have little objectives you can aim for now. If it has trophy support awesome, but if it doesn't, no big deal either.
