I don't mind it so much - although I disagree with the idea of an achievement/trophy for starting a game, I do think that you can generally judge how much of a game has been played through by their achievements/trophies, and with that in mind it makes sense to have them be given out as you get through 'stages' of the game as well as when you complete sidequests etc.
I don’t see anything wrong with one for starting. I make sure that all my achievements have timestamps, so I can see how long I messed around trying to beat a game for the first time.
Wouldn't the logical place to look for that be the in-game timer?
Let’s see how long it took BoB to beat all the Left 4 Dead campaigns on Expert... oh wait... he hasn’t done it.
