PS3 Infographic

[MadDoggyca]

I play single for storie only and multiplay for fun.. I never go out of my way for trpohys or achevments.. if hte game has no replay value to it its aone time deal and then never touched again..

achvemnts and trophyes do not add replay value they only keep popel aroudn that car aobut there stats on a bad game longer.

All this proves is PS3 owners are idiots?

I'm pretty sure that if a similar survey was conducted on another console, the results would be similar. What this proves is that there is a group of people who take gaming to such an extreme that they no longer have a life (referring especially to the dating statistic).

I'm surprised that Snake didn't rank somewhere in the top 5 characters. For me, he and Crash Bandicoot are pretty much the faces of Playstation.

That dating statistic is scary. There are really people who prefer gaming to sex relationships?

That 40% relationship figure is just sad tbh

Considering Snake/Metal Gear Solid is from a 3rd party publisher and MGS has been on Nintendo, Microsoft, Apple, and Sony platforms, I don't think he'd be a right fit

Again I'd disagree as I see many of these trophies as a challenge I'd like to overcome as once I do it gives myself a sense of satisfaction that I was able to accomplish what can sometimes be a difficult task. I can see you're just going to keep saying 'all they care about is their gamerscore' so there's probably no use debating this anymore. It's also your opinion that they don't add any replay value but I'm sure there's many people that'd disagree with that statement as well, not to mention if I think it's a bad game I'm not going to buy it so that's point is moot really.

Trophies give you more incentive to play games, they add replay value that clearly wouldn't be there otherwise.

Say for instance you need to collect 100 objects in a game. You collect 99.

You finish the game, and there's 1 object somewhere in the game you need to find, which means you'll have to start again and scour - when you get that 1 object you'll get a Platinum Trophy or 100G points. :p

... Some people won't bother, but a lot of people will do it for the Trophy! :laugh:

It's hard to believe that many people own 20+ games

That's what you found hard to believe? What about people who don't date because they get in the way of their gaming? lol

People who don't date and gaming has been around for the past 30 years :p

Why?

I own 67 Disk based PS3 games and 16 downloaded ones, I don't see why its a hard number to believe at all.

Awesomeness!

I can imagine loads of people having over 20 retail games. Surprisingly, I'm not one of them. I've got 16 (physical Blu-Ray games, not PSN games), which is tiny in comparison to my 360 collection, which currently stands at 82. :p
