    I can see that after 50+.

    Even after killing everything within a 12-mile radius, doing all sidemissions and main story, I'm only halfway through my 50 right now.

    I just got to the Dahl Headlands too.

        Unlike on the Xbox, I want to do this one legit.

        EDIT: I'm 10 trophies shy in UC: Drake's Fortune. Looks like I'll be playing this game on 'crushing' when I do my marathon *le sigh*.
        I thought trophies were pointless and you didn't care about them?

            I never said they were pointless and that I didn't care. What I'm saying is going back through game after game after game to get random shit and/or to 100% them is pointless. However, I would like to have just one platinum on my gamercard instead of a big ol' goose egg.

                Got the 50, got the Platinum.

                Now I can have "fun" with Borderlands.

                  Well then, why are you always busting my balls when I mention them? /i rarely if ever go back to an old game just for trophies. I will however try to get them as I'm playing through a game.

                  Oh, and I still say they are leagues better than boring achievements. Don't get me wrong, I still like going after and unlocking cheevos but the boring point system is just so plain. One thing that I think really sets them apart is I love how on PS3 any DLC trophies for a game are denoted by a "+" sign. So, they don't count towards your platinum. Whereas on 360 you have no fucking clue what content is DLC or not and it just adds more points to the 1000 gamerscore. I actually remember a while back going for a cheevo in game for what seemed like an hour, only to find it it was from DLC that I didn't have for the game. Fucking dumb.

                    But if it wasn't for the Cheevos, the Trophies probably wouldn't exist.

                      Oh, I am well aware. MS paved the way and Sony improved on the concept. Why Nintendo hasn't done their own thing is baffling.

                        Nintendo is Nintendo. I don't think they know what they're doing half of the time.

                          I got my Mordecai character to level 62 on Borderlands yesterday. If anyone wants to farm Crawmerax, let me know.

                            62?!? How many Crawmerax battles did that take?

                              None. That's just from going through the Claptrap DLC.

                              Eventually, I'll use him to farm Crawmerax to get my backup Lilith leveled up and maybe get some pearlescent weapons along the way.

                                Hell yeah. Now if I could only get those stupid miscellaneous items from the Claptrap DLC like the sunglasses, panties, oil cns, etc.

                                I'm not sure it can really be considered an "accomplishment" but I went through the Best Buy earlier to pick up the R&C, Boardwalk Empire and Walking Dead season 2 I ordered the other day. I also re-upped my Gamers Club Unlocked membership and wanted to "return" my $5 Madden pre-order. They asked why and I explained that TRU had it for pre-order for $45. They told me they would've price matched it but I explained that TRU changed the price back to $60 on release day so that wasn't possible. They then told me that they would just price match based on my word, LOL. They practically begged me to let them price match. Because I still have not received the 360 or Vita version from TRU and expected delivery is the FIFTH I bought them from Best Buy and they price matched both. I'll just return the copies to TRU when I get them. Fuck them and their slow ass shipping.

                                Also, no, I didn't display my gun Med or Swarley.
