Achievements vs Trophies

[Reasonable]

I'm not a huge fan of either, but in principle I prefer a system with clear tiers and a higher level of differentiation, so I guess Trophies appeal to me a bit more.

I'd like the ability to turn of the notification though - I hate playing an immersive game and having a notification pop up, it's just so silly. For example in Dead Space you're getting into the vibe of feeling alone and threatened, you make a frantic kill, then get told 'woo hoo, you've just killed your xth foe'. It just breaks the spell of SP titles for me. I don't mind in MP, but in SP I want a way to switch off in game notifications.

Sorry, rant over!

Not possible on the PS3 ?

I would never do it, but I know it's possible on the 360.

 

OT: I still have the same opinion as I had 3 months ago

+1 for 360 then!  I'll need to check.  When the firmware update hit I looked for a notification off setting but couldn't find one.  Maybe I'll check the internet, it's sure to know.

EDIT : apparently you can't turn notification off, but it seems Heavy Rain may include a setting to delay them to prevent them intruding on the game.  Hopefully that will expand to a general setting with a future firmware update.
