To be honest i don't really get the trophy whore gotta be no 1 aspect of gaming… It seems rather sad and screams some sort of insecurity in their mind that they gotta 100% – be no. 1.
It's almost laughable that people give away massive portions of their life to something that is nothing more than virtual gratification. Does your life not give you more than gaming does?
I guess life is diff. to everyone but being a trophy whore sucks. I know that a level of ability that i do not have is also needed and i would never deny that. That i would congratulate you on… But loosing touch on what is real i would not,to say you put your family second is on the point of shocking.
I could prob. push myself harder for trophies, as i could in life general… But i know i don't need to because i'm happy in myself, without anything.
Trophy whore's unite… Then piss off you no lifer F*cks… Well done for sorting your priority's in your head, however late and misplaced… This is one thing i hate about trophys – how they can take over someone's good thinking.
IMO
I don't feel like i got to be #1. I like the self satisfaction of getting 100% in a game. Thats why i like to maintain a 100% profile, purely for self satisfaction.
I am happy within myself Doc, i just let the addiction i had for collecting trophies get out of hand, much like any other sort of addiction. Be it drugs, work or trophies.
Yes Doc i made a very big mistake, one that i am making up for now.
I still love to collect trophies and get another great collection up with all my games at 100%, but it is all for fun now. The leaderboards are a waste of time and money. Take it from someone who knows first hand.
And also, i have had a life during my chase in the top 25. Like InsomniacKiller said we weren't all no-lifers.
MemberWell when you have so many trophies like i did, around the 4500 mark, you could be tempted to get back into the race. For me that race was becoming a real problem, effecting all aspects of my life. Only people with no real life or people who care little about whats really important can get up as high as i was. Either that or they don't have a full time job like me. I had to put family first so quitting the account was my best option, to remove all temptation.
Plus i want a 100% profile and it would have taken me way to long to get that on Oz-Metalhead.
Member@ The General
Yeah i do admit online shooters can have their fun parts but they do get boring quickly for me. I much prefer how it was in the old days. Having a bunch of mates over playing together sipping on some cold ones having a real blast. Playing online takes that social fun factor out of it.
I have yet to play MW2 online. lol

A few months back I had a similar thought I was wondering if I was playing the game or whether the games were playing me FFS I played Terminator Salvation and i can't live that down.
Having Terminator Salvation on your list isn't that bad dude. It is still an experience aimed at males. Playing Hannah Montana on the other hand really has no excuse.
MemberThanks.
It shouldn't be too hard maintaining 100%. I'm only playing games i want to so i shouldn't have a problem at all.
My main problem was too many games with an online portion that take way to many hours repeating the same crap. I'm mainly sticking to single player games. The games i do play that have an online portion i will finish but in my own time, seeing as i am in no rush.
Obviously i will be staying away from older games like Resistance 2 and Far Cry 2. I can't stand online shooters anymore after all the ones i played and all that trouble and hours that went into them. Screw that, ill stick with rich single player experiences that have storylines and great characters. None of this getting 10000 kills boring crap. 🙂
MemberPfft that is not very 'Dynamic' lol
MemberWell at the moment Oz-Metalhead is 30,000 points ahead of #2 in Australia. You never know i may be able to get above them with my new account before they get above my Oz-Metalhead acount.
But, I am in no rush at all and i really don't care if i don't make it there again. As long as i maintain a 100% profile while enjoying all the games i play i wont mind.
It's all about the fun and enjoyment for me. A little competition is fun aswell.
MemberHey Nick, I am quitting my ID too. I have made a seperate thread on it which i urge you all to read.
Sure i have 84 Platinums on the account but once you read my thread you will know why i am quitting. Besides there are alot of games i really want to play and earn all the trophies on all over again. Mainly for self satisfaction and to prove i can do them again and because they look good to have. I really don't mind replaying games i enjoy. I replayed Oblivion many times, with thousands of hours of game time purely because i enjoyed it so much.
First game i am playing again is Fallout 3, but this time i am exploring EVERY nook and cranny, so far i have found many new interesting things i never knew were there. 🙂
MemberThe White Knight Chronicles Dynamic Theme is pretty cool. The Africa theme would have been much better if there was more animals in it not just zebras.
Oh and War what GOW3 dynamic theme are you talking about?
Oh and that 'Make Believe' theme is terrible.

I made a mistake, I fully restored/formated my PS3… and still same error code, and cant make a new account. There goes all my save datas! And dont forget the un-synced trophies, or gameshared games… Gonna sell this PS3 and get a Slim over the summer, till then ill be playing my iPhone…
Has anyone heard of the 20$ PSN accounts where you get 150$? I hope they survive till summer…
They wont survive.
I got one thinking it was an actual psn card but its an actual account. They give you an email and password to activate on your PS3 and then you have like 2 days to spend the $150 before the account gets banned.
I don't like these kinds of things because i'd rather have the games i have bought on my own account so i actually 'own' it myself. Otherwise i would have to keep the banned account on my PS3 just so i can use what i bought using the banned account. Btw, I deleted all the games i bought using this account.
The reason why i think these things wont last is because the person i bought this off on ebay had all his listings removed and ebay emailed me saying this person could be fraudulent and not to pay him.
I think that these people are dodgy and they're using something like stolen credit cards to fund the wallets of these accounts. Thats why i think the accounts are getting banned so quick.
MemberHaha totally knew this was an April Fools Day joke.
I've had someone try to trick me by saying MGS4 finally has trophies! Lol C'mon that was last years April Fools joke.

MemberIt's not out on the Australian store yet gow2rules. I got it off the American store.
March 28, 2010 at 11:48 am in reply to: Spartansstandtall.com-What I think of it **SPLOILERS** #60322MemberHaha a 13 year old working on GOW 3.
Hilarious.
I have no idea why it is doing what it is doing. It could be Platinum total related or just over time.
I guess we will find out.
I'll post on here if i notice a change.
MemberYeah i have picked this up. Nice and cheap for a Platinum.
The game does seem fun with all those different boosts you can perform etc but yeah controls are a bit flinchy.
The AI totally suck aswell.
What can you expect for $8?
If you don't mind spoilers, all of the secret trophies can be found at…
