Sony should offer trophies for every achievement unlocked.

Yes, this would include exclusive 360 games. There is no restriction on having trophies for games not on the system. This could help encourage MS fans to give up their gamerscores in exchange for a free online platform, instead of paying so as not to lose their achievements.

I think that giving trophies for MS exclusives might be going a bit far (could be seen as unfair by the trophy community), but I am otherwise in full support of this idea. Losing all of my achievements is one of the most prominent disadvantages of me every possibly switching from Xbox to Playstation.

Sadly, I don't see this ever happening as the number of people it would affect is very very small.

At this point, I am actually more likely to switch to the Wii U in the future if things go bad with the Xbox this gen ... there is always the hope that Nintendo will wake up and make a achivement/trophy system for their games.

This is the exact reason I'm talking about, fyi to anyone who doesn't understand what I'm talking about (ps3-sales, porclus)

go to raptr and sign up. Now you have Trophies, Achievements, steam points all in one place

@Op not even a small chance of this happening

Who said there was a chance of it happening? I said it would be good to begin to undermine the value of gamerscore.

As long as they could replace those games too, i would go for it. Otherwise, no thanks.

0% chance of that happening.

People act as if XBL Gamerscores will somehow give MS the edge next-gen, but what about PSN Trophies? Both are equally as important.(or not)

If Sony did this, then MS would do this and then there would be no point. Well...except it would open up everyone to switch which console they dedicate to without feeling shackled by their gamerscore/trophies.

Still no.

Though I would like if people weren't tied down to Xbox in any way....personally.

Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

Agree. It's importance distracts from so many things that matter more.

Not going to happen. Sony likes to pretend that they are the only game in town. Unless they are childishly dishing insults they don't like to even acknowledge their competition.
