I think people should chill the F**K out when it comes to whinging about people playing games that some don't deem real, firstly who the hell are you to say whether a game is real clearly it is as the person has played it and secondly and I've repeated this so many f**king times it's getting old YOU DID NOT BUY THE GOD DAMN GAME. Now this paragraph was not an attack simply fact.

Zanatos this ain't an attack on you mate it's just my thoughts on the said topic, I'm like most on here and only really worry about my own trophies especially with most people trying to cheat with gamesaves to get their plats these days.

Butthurt because someone laughed at your Hannah Montana plat?

It's a good thing you asked everyone to chill out though. If you had left it a second longer, marshmallows would start flying. 

What does buying the game have to do with anything anyway?

I don't see how it fits in with the rest of you indignant rant.

Do I have to buy a game to know it's cheap as shit, and a piss plat?

Now this response is not an attack, simply fact.

Thats cool I am capable of having a civilised discussion, regardless of what you may think just turn off the sarcasm button as I've heard it all before mate/ as that's the advantage of being older then most on the trophy sites.

Firstly you ask what buying the game has to do with it well it's simple really it comes down to rights, just say I bought hannah montana lol(I'd rather hang myself first) but lets just say I did what right would anyone have to say anything insulting towards me when a) I bought the game with my own money and b) I'm playing it on my own console?

No you don't have to buy a game to know whether it'll be easy or not thats the wonder of this thing called the internet but if you were to buy hannah montana all I'm saying is I may have a laugh and have a friendly joke with you but I would not look at you as a lesser gamer or try to indignify you in any way which I think is the point of this thread.

Now I got a few easy plats yes but I enjoyed playing the games in which I acquired them so who's right is it to tell me that I can't play these games or that the platinums achieved mean any less. With the trophy system of course there are going to be people that will obtain easy platinums but it's there choice what they play and these type of hate threads aren't going to change that, I see it on all trophy sites and my opinion remains the same. It's all opinionated really but nonetheless a pointless debate for the simple fact there are going to be some who agree that they have the right to dictate that everyone should play “real” games and there are going to be others who play whatever they want for the simple fact they either love trophies or are like me and just love gaming. 

@Miiiiitch

No arguments with your opinion mate, you're entitled to it and whatever games you play are your own business and only your own. But this wasn't a hate thread. Nobody was throwing around harsh statements or denouncing anybody. It was a pretty open-minded and easy-going discussion with comments on both sides and no hassle or grief being fired out.

i played terminator after someone on this site said i had a low plat to trophy ratio but i can guarantee i won't be playing any other stupid games to get plat btw i do have a few easy plats e.g. godfather 2 and WWE LOW but i got them because i enjoyed the game and figured as it's an easy plat i may as well go for it.

To be honest from what I've heard about Terminator Salvation (never played it) I would have respect for anyone who plays it all the way for the platinum (even though it's only like 4 hours)

I did once play games purely for trophies but not anymore, I just play for fun.

You can see that in my plat list it goes from Burnout Paradise to Grand Theft Auto IV – I just play games I enjoy and trophies are an added bonus 😀

Ok where do i start….

First of all just because a person has an easy Platinum doesn't mean you should lose respect for them. To alot of people collecting trophies is FUN and getting 100% brings a sense of satisfaction no matter what game it is. Just pointing out i have not played Hannah Montana and i refuse too. But just because someone has it i doesn't mean u should look down on them. If you want to judge someones gaming abilities go by what Platinums He/She does have.

For example i have some easy Plats like Ice Age and Monsters vs Aliens, which i both enjoyed playing mind you. But i also have harder to get Plats like Batman and Demons Souls.

Also i am sick and tired of people who have less trophies say that trophies mean nothing, sure they are just digital trophies but you could say the same thing about real life trophies. What i mean is theyre both just representations of someones accomplishments. Would you say someones real life trophy of winning their basketball leage means nothing to them? No, you wouldn't. If 'casual' gamers want the respect of 'hardcore' gamers then you should show us some repect too.

It's people like you BigWoop who seem like the losers to me, when they get all upset at people who enjoy the fun and competition of trophies. If your argument is aimed at the people who think theyre above others because of their trophies then i guess they deserve it 🙂

Trophies are a representation of our gaming accomplishments. Us more hardore gamers know the value of each Platinum so we know which ones to be proud of and which ones to give respect to. For example i respect anyone who has the Batman Plat. I also respect someone who only has easy Plats if they give me respect aswell, but if someone does only have easy Plats it says to me they aren't as skilled as others or theyre just not dedicated.
