The Purpose of this Blog!

At the end of November of this year (2010), I had 900+ PS3 trophies. I made a personal goal to hit 1,000 PS3 trophies before the end of the year. Needless to say, I accomplished that goal, but I had so much fun doing it. I have decided to take it a step further, and now I want to break 2,012 PS3 trophies by the year of 2012.

Let me stop for a second, and inform the people who don't know what a "PS3 trophy" is. A PS3 trophy isn't a real trophy. It is an inanimate object that is given to you for accomplishing a goal in a video game. The Microsoft XBox 360 has the same thing, but they call them achievements. Certain goals could be, "Get X amount of kills with X weapon" or, "Beat X game on X difficulty setting". When all PS3 trophies are gathered in one game (not counting Downloadable Content (DLC)) that player will receive a Platinum trophy. The amount of trophies in every game varies, and some games don't even have a platinum trophy.

This blog will have tons of different things that have to do with video games. I will update on a weekly basis (Sundays) talking about the video games that I am working on. I will be reviewing the games that I complete, as well as my thoughts while I'm completing the game. I will also give out strategies I used to beat the game, and even strategies to gain the same trophies/achievements that I'm obtaining.

Now to officially set my goals...
I have 1000+ trophies and I must have 2,012 trophies by 01/01/2012
I am also throwing in what I think is a little more difficult. I must have 32 Platinum trophies by 01/01/2012. I currently only have 17, so that's 15 more. I must fully complete (100% non DLC trophies) 15 different games that give out trophies. This way it will prevent me from just getting bronze trophies (easiest attainable trophies) until I hit 2,012.

I hope you join me in completing my quest to 2,012 trophies by the year of 2012. There will be plenty to discuss and follow along with in this blog. I will give my thoughts and opinions on the games I play, as well as have discussions/strategies on the games and trophies/achievements I obtain. That way you can still get something out of this blog even if you're not interested in someone getting inanimate trophies.
