Gods, I hope that's true for most of us. Why spend all that time on one game when you can go play another game?

Only if I was in a position where it was not possible for me to play another game for the foreseeable future would I try to get Platinum on a game.
I can't afford to buy as many games as you, I guess. There are a lot of games I would buy if I got the chance. The main reason I platinum a game, though, is because I enjoy the game a lot and feel the achievements will give me something to do to extend the gameplay time. It's just like completing any random mission in a game - you get given a goal/challenge and you do what you need to do in order to reach that goal or complete that challenge. I tend to finish a game, then look at the trophies/achievements I've not yet got and consider whether or not I feel they will be worth it.

For games like Uncharted 2 and Far Cry 3, trophies are what encouraged me to try out parts of the games that I would not have otherwise (ie, multiplayer) and I ended up having loads of fun with them.
