Are Achievements\Trophies important to a game?

Trophievements actually provide me with something to do with a game when I'm not really creative(or persistent) enough to explore it fully.

When I was a kid, my choice of games was limited, so I ended up playing them all to death. Nowadays, though, I'm at a point in my life that I have way too many games, and not enough time or attention span to play them.

Trophievements(which is now the official term, by the by) help keep my attention for awhile, but I'll admit that some of them are pretty dumb. Oh, yay, an assload of trophies for playing through the story I've always done in games anyways!

And of course, the "Just play a few weeks straight and you'll get this one, honest!" ones that make me want to do unmentionable things to game developers.
