    Default Achievements in games....has anyone gone all the way

    Hey guys I currently own a xbox360 and ps3

    While playing games I realised that the achievements were fun but damn near impossible to get them all (I havent got 1 games completely 'achieved' lol)

    So my question, who here has done and which games was it and do you think the time was worth it?

    The platinum (all trophies complete) on PS3 is usually quite difficult and/or time-consuming.
    Some games more so, others less.

    It only becomes worth it for me when it's extremely hard to get.

    Bayonetta's platinum was one of those. Totally worth it!

    I don't bother. The problem is these days the devs see achievements as an easy way to increase content/play time so they add an endless list of them.

    I platinumed inFAMOUS some time ago. I don't see myself making much fuss for any more. They can be time consuming and frustrating and quite honestly pointless. But I still love hearing the trophy 'Ding!' each time I get one. I'm just not going to seek them out to the detriment of my enjoyment of the game.

    In short, they are fun diversions that can add playtime to a game, but no need to worry about them if you don't want to.

    I agree, I love seeing the xbox360 achievement icon on my screen.
    It makes me feel awesome even if I got it for walking 5 feet

    I don't bother with achievements sometimes it gets too time consuming. I get the ones which are readily available during the gameplay.

    Check this video, it really helped me get the stunts, but you really should have gotten the remaining ones on your second play through.

    I just got my Mass Effect 2 and Modern Warfare 2 Platinums this week. I love trophies, not always, but mostly.
