"What Sony showed us of 2.40 looks awesome. I never really missed custom soundtracks, but the Trophy stuff is fantastic. I'm a big fan of the 360's Achievement system, not for overall points, but rather to show how much I've done in a single game. Sony's version looks to cater to my tastes better than a somewhat random number scheme, which is great.

Also, the Level system is brilliant. My Xbox 360 GamerScore is somewhere close to 17,000 right now. If I get an Achievement worth 10 points, that doesn't mean a whole lot at this point. But on the PS3, if I'm at Level 12, I know that every Bronze Trophy brings me one step closer to Level 13. In the scheme of things, it still doesn't mean anything in the overall betterment of my life (getting to Level 50 won't earn me a pay raise at work or a free dinner), but it is one more little thing for me to obsess over and will start getting me to prefer playing the PS3 version of a game rather than its all-things-equal 360 counterpart."

Apologies if already posted.

nice

This thread is in dire need of some Starcraft Spin™.


But seriously, this does sound pretty cool. I was never really interested in trophies or achievements but this may change my mind.

nice link...............

I think Sony should reward us for every 10 levels since that would mean we're playing ALOT of Ps3 games, they should atleast give a free episode of Qore or something.

Not a bad article. I can't wait for this to go live

nice...very excited for this :)

Very interesting. Im glad that they didn't just straight copy 360.

That would be cool, it would be great to have some kind of reward system in place.

The guy is right though, it's going to stink waiting for devs to add trophies into the games... oh well, at least we have them....
