Re: Trophy Whore – ‘Trophy Collector’..

I personally wouldn't play a game I didn't like just for the trophies. Looking through my trophy list I've got less than 5% on games like Fallout 3, Street Fighter IV and Far Cry 2 (sorry but I just didn't like them ), however I've got anywhere between 60-100% on those that that I've enjoyed.

In some cases the Trophy system has extended the life of a game for me, for example, COD W@W  Lets be honest how many people would have bothered to complete that on Veteran if it wasn't for the trophies?? And although the Veteran difficulty completely sucked the fun out of the game there was certainly a greater sense of achievement when I finally planted that Russian flag.

I still don't have Platinum on the game though becuase quite frankly I can't be arsed with Sum of All Zeroes. Does that make me a Trophy Whore? I don't think so.

My own definition of a Trophy Whore is:

Anyone who has Hannah Montana – The Movie Platinum (I'm sorry but there is no excuse for that)

As for people who go on about how many trophies they have, I'm happy to have a bit of friendly banter and healthy competition with my “real-life” friends but personally not bothered about how much better (or worse) than me those on my friends list are.

My old psn friend had the hannah montana plat. He is the BIGGEST trophy hore. Only cared about that.
