Sephy says:

I think that even though you have completed a game, the zany trophies are there to show people the mad stuff you have done.

It all depends on the game but yeah they should all have trophies but only if they can go along with the story.

Brain says:

I think the Trophy thing should be placed because you feel like ... achieved something during a game. It adds more winning to it .

Yes, though it seems as if people are now only for the games for the Trophies, and no the the fun of the game.

Trophies add spice to the game.
They make you want to play better to get them.
They are FREE, and add spice and replay value. Whats to hate?

I've played games for over 2.5 decades without trophies. There's really no point to them. They are useless. But since their free, I won't complain too hard.

Hard Core Gamer says:

Trophies are nothing it would be different if you could actually use them for something more than talk they are worthless waste of space just like the XBox360 achievements worthless ?

jimbles says:

It don't bother me. It's a nice little gimmick, but to be honest, they don't make a difference to me. If there was a little something you gained from doing it then maybe, but mer! I don't wanna spend forever on a game, getting so frustrated trying to get a "platinum trophy" just to brag.

Meh

Rattyocaster says:

Trophies are great, but it wouldn't affect my choice of games in the slightest. They simply add a little more replay value to get some of the trophies you didn't get first time through. For example, if I had a 360 and a PS3 and a game came out for both yet the PS3 one didn't have Trophies yet the 360 version had acheivements, I would still buy the PS3 version because I prefer that console. They're just nice if they're included, not essential.

Star Wars:
The Force Unleashed

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed tells the story of Darth Vader's secret apprentice, code-named "Starkiller" but born Galen Marek,[7] as he hunts down the remaining Jedi after Emperor Palpatine orders them killed.[8][9] Set between Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, the story explores the aftermath of the Great Jedi Purge as well as the rise of Darth Vader. The events of The Force Unleashed are "pivotal" in Darth Vader's history and development as a character, and offer illumination into other characters from A New Hope, Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, and Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.

read the rest of the Wikipedia article

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will NOT have trophy support on release when confronted about it Adam Kahn, LucasArts Senior PR Manager responded with:

"The Force Unleashed does not support the trophy system on PS3. I can't speculate about what might happen in the future, though."

Will the non-existence of Trophy support influence your desicion on buying Star Wars: The Force Unleashed?

Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes

Luke Trophywalker says:

Even though The Force Unleashed has been out for a while now, making it easy to pick up as a bargain I will still not get this game until it gets trophy patched (like that will happen). There are too many games out there now with trophies to waste time playing trophyless games, and I am not the only one that feels this way.

Han (d me some trophies) Solo says:

I think its disgusting that such a big name game like this doesn't have trophies and probably never will have them. Sony should open a can of whoop-ass on them and make them put them in tbh!

Posted September 30, 2008

No

Jawbreakah says:

star wars sux im never buying it either with or without trophies its still gonna suck they should put trophies for other good games like assassins creed, 50 cent blood on the sand, nba homecourt and nba ballers, ratchet and clank (1 & 2), facebreaker, and many other games

Joe says:

No, I bought and loved the game, no replay value for me though, trophies would really make me plough through that game again.

The Burnout Paradise trophies have been out for a while now and quite frankly I think they are a joke. You can get all the trophies by completing less than 70% of the game, they don't add any replay value whatsoever, they don't add incentive to explore all the game, they are basically easy trophies to anyone who wants them - but that is only my opinion.

What do you think are they too easy or what?

What are your thoughts on the Burnout Paradise Trophies.

Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Positive

Negative

Burning Rooster says:

Burnout Paradise trophies suck, there is absolutely no challenge in them and ever since the bike patch Criterion have been making Burnout easier and easier ... Criterion u suck!!!

Mike says:

Youre wrong it just increases your enjoyment of the game on your first playthrough.

Posted December 07, 2008

Mr Cool says:

The Burnout Paradise trophies are an insult to any1 who has the Criterion Elite License. I personally have completed 102% of the game and 101% of the bikes (including all 490 online challenges) yet people who have only completed like 70% of the game have still got the same Platinum Trophy as me, it is digusting tbh. Hopefully crappy trophies like this game has won't appear in other games, so all I can say is 'Criterion grow a brain' Platinum trophies are for completists.

PAIN is a great comedy game where you fire a person out of a slingshot into buildings, vehicles, other people and explosives in an effort to cause as much pain as possible. The game has loads of ingame achievements of increasing difficulity (as it should). The trophies however are more difficult to get than all the ingame achievements put together and in my opinion are way too hard to get. I played the game for approximately 5 hours and unlocked lots of ingame achievements ... but I did not get one trophy. The funny thing about this is that the trophies they released with the game are alot easier than the originally planned ones. Okay, I don't expect trophies to be easy but for five hours play I would at least expect to get a couple of bronzes.

Do you think the PAIN Trophies are too hard to get?

Fetching blurbs now... please stand by

Yes

souter says:

2 HARD!!!!

Posted September 16, 2008

No

Mr Cool says:

When I first got the game I would have agreed with you that the trophies are too hard (especially after getting Burnout Paradise Platinum), but now that I have played more trophy games I would now say that some of them are too easy tbh. Admittedly it does have some rock hard trophies (Ninja Pwn) but so do quite a few other games (Far Cry 2 has got way harder trophies). PAIN is a game that should definitely have a Platinum trophy, maybe if it had there wouldn't have been as many complaints about it as it definitely would have had some easier trophies in it as well as the hard ones it has now.
