Yandeyu Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Can be a game you hate, love, interested in, don't care about whatever I'm just curious. I my case I'm willing to at least try to platinum a game I like and I will PLAY the game before serious trophy hunting. Example: Mamorukun curse, arcana hearts 3, sonic(generations, unleashed, adventure 1&2, sonic4 episode 2), hyperdimension neptuina mk2 & Victory etc. but I can't see myself getting a platinum for a game I'm not having fun with. Example: COD(MW3&black ops), wwe(13&all stars), madden(10&11), persona 4 arena, Crescent Pale Mist etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VetoShizuko Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Depends on the game. Obviously I'm not gonna try to platinum a game that I hate (X-Blades) but if it's a game I actually like and enjoy playing I'll try to get the plat and get the annoying trophies outta of the way. That reminds me Victory finally have those dlc characters out I might actually go back and play that O_O I don't care that I have the platinum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wdjat Prinny Doods Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I usually go for platinums for the games on my list because I usually only play games I like on my account. Madden 13 is the only game on my list that Ill never go for the platinum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichiban-Hybrid Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I agree what your sayin. I really want to get a plat my fav game like kingdom hearts , disgaea, persona, atelier series, and etc. I dont fell like plat a game if its not my interest. Call of duty has overpriced dlc which im not intrest of and fighting games like blazblue gets to my excitement but since its a fighting game (and im no good at fightng games ), i cant plat. Lastly, I mostly plat games on vita cuz i spent so much time using it and i rarely use the ps3.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddd49 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'm willing to play terrible games if it means i can get the platinum in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffyAssassin64 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'd only ever play a game if I think it looks interesting (or I'm excited for it, or it looks great, etc.); playing a game I hate or don't enjoy just for trophies doesn't really appeal to me. I don't really have enough time to be playing games I'm not interested in as well as those I am... the life of a uni student is a busy one.

dodgedoors Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Darksiders isn't impressing me too much right now but I've heard good things so I'm trying to power on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowIPendragon Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 (edited) It would have to be at least marginally entertaining. I could not play a mind-numbingly boring game all the way to Platinum UNLESS it was a super easy platinum. The only game I've played mainly just to platinum was Sound Shapes and I got it in just over a day. Darksiders isn't impressing me too much right now but I've heard good things so I'm trying to power on. Darksiders is one game I CAN NOT tolerate. Its was just too damn boring and the controls didn't feel tight enough. Its a worse God of War ripoff than Dante's Inferno, which I also would not platinum.

Paulie1313 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Darksiders isn't impressing me too much right now but I've heard good things so I'm trying to power on. I can completely relate to this. I loathe the game, but so many others say how great it is. I am trying my best to endure it and some parts/levels are cool, but I just can't get into it that much. I know I am close to finishing it, but still have a lot of exploring to do for Armor, XP farming to max out weapons and upgrades but I play it for a bit, move onto to another game, finish that game, play a bit more and so on. Seems the only way I will be able to finish it I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evenge_Ostro Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I don't think there will be games I will just play to get trophies or a platinum. I only buy games I really want to play and even if they are not top-notch I will sit through them as I have always done with games that are not totally unplayable. I may skip trophies then if it doesn't make me wanna go on after completing the main part of the game (story, career, ...). I still might come back to it one day and go for it because I have always been a 100% guy. Even before trophies and achievements I'd always look at the stats screen and maximize all I can although there was no way to show other people without lots of hassle (taking pictures, uploading, posting / capture videos, edit, upload, post). Bad thing is, I already have a game on my profile I might never play because my gf started it when I was logged in so I'm stuck with it and that bugs my 100% mentality 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never thought I would miss GOW's fixed camera but I do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimthebadman Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Terminator Salvation. Could not stand it but i plowed through for 3 hours broken up into half hour blocks and got the platinum but im not sure if i could do that again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgedoors Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Terminator Salvation. Could not stand it but i plowed through for 3 hours broken up into half hour blocks and got the platinum but im not sure if i could do that again. That was brutal. Long ass cutscenes bad, infrequent checkpoints (with cutscenes replayed if you die) When the last trophy didn't pop for the platinum I nearly cried, but I reloaded the save and finished the short scene before credits and boom it popped. I wanted to sue Gamefly for shipping me that game, there should have been a disclaimer with an "are you sure " yes/no popup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
closertim Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Yes, yes I would. But I wouldn't play a game I absolutely hate. I have a lot of games on my profile that were played because of an easy platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister_Elbow Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I'll play a game that I enjoy, then after beating it I'll take a look at the list and see if it's do-able then I do or don't. Mostly because I'm lazy/impatient I don't plat a lot of games -.-' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BSAA_Advisor Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 If it's a game I really enjoy, I may strive for the platinum at some point but it will never be my main reason for the platinum. Most, if not all of my platinums I enjoyed but the game genuinely interested me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheYuriG Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Of course, why else would i play a game? The only game in my list that i don't intend to platinum is GH5, you may guess the reason by yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redknightalex Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I did for a while. Went through GameFly's service and grabbed a bunch of easy plats. Even though it was time and money I used on the service I don't necessarily regret it. Now, with so many games in my backlog, I try to only play games I like and only consider going after the plat if I really enjoy the game or think it'd be easy to achieve. Sometimes the prestige of having that plat will push me on too. The less time I have to myself, crushed between work and class, has seriously made me re-evaluate how I perceive trophies and video games as a whole. My whole attitude is pretty laid-back (and it helps with the anxiety ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPotatoBoi Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 No, I play the game because I was interested and decided to try it. Plat comes after I finished the game and that takes maybe a day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
