I like to collect trophies purely for the challenge that they provide. Some are really fun, and those are the ones I do, but some are just rediculous (10,000 kills online in Resistance 2, and I hate their online mode) so I just don't bother. Like I plan on getting the platinum in Dead Space because I love that game, and I waited a few months to play it on impossible mode,,, the enemies are so threatening now that its actually scaring the hell outta me again. I recently went back to Prince of Persia to get that platinum, and was really dissapointed to discover that I got the “be gentle with her” and “speed demon” trophies for free when I bought the epilogue. I knew they wouldn't be hard, but I like the idea of having that challenge in a fun game that was otherwise easy. I played through Uncharted like 4 or 5 times because I completed all the in game challenges well before the trophy system came out, and then played again to platinum when they patched it… it gave me a good excuse to play through a fantastic game again, and still gave me a sense of accomplishment. I can definitely tell by the end of the first play through of a game whether or not I'll get the platinum, because if it wasn't fun enough I won't bother. I should have had the platinum three times over for burnout paradise because I've played it so much and had my data deleted so many times… and I don't own a web cam, but I don't care… I just love that game. I have the platinum for Infamous, but damn, I still get an urge to play it because that game is so fantastic, and like was said earlier theres more to do for a 100%. I'm borrowing prototype from a friend rigth now, and while very bad ass and cool in certain ways, I can tell I have no intention of platinuming it. Trophies are what you make of it,,, a fun challenge, bragging rights if you want, or simply a horrible waste of time if you don't enjoy the journey.
