I think you're putting far too much emphasis on this, you really think that if even 100k people cheated trophies it'd make a blind bit of difference?

It's not the practical terms that make this a good marketing strategy, it's idea that you can't trust Trophy. THE IDEA <- big letters to emphasise that point.

You've been making some strange points recently.



Around the Network

Who cares if someone has cheated trophies? Trophies affect literally nothing.

That said, it might help if you could label people as cheaters, at least for your own purposes. Even better if you could report cheaters to Sony.



I don't see it cheating trophies.

On sony's server side....
user signed in at 5;01pm, 400 trophies

user signed in at 5;15pm, 440 trophies

FLAG!!!!! BAN!!!!!!

Exactly, and now online isn't free you lose a whole lot more if you get banned.



I don't care if people cheat trophies. I earn trophies for my own satisfaction. I don't give too shits about others trophies. They're only cheating themselves anyway.



Around the Network

This generation's version of the Game Genie / Game Shark...only not as cool, since those early cheat devices could do all sorts of cool things beyond 99 lives & level select.

I think only trophy whores will care about this product. (Not hunters; trophy whores will play anything and everything for easy plats.) Even then, it won't help with the "do this thing X times," "find and collect all of the X," or online trophies.

A really bad possible response to this sort of thing could be games having their save files all online in a database, like some online titles already have. It's unlikely to happen due to inevitable backlash, though.



Wow, so the GameShark is back



Why on earth would they worry about banning someone for cheating to get trophies? If they have free resources to spend on something then, please, let them spend it on something that matters.

It's like getting mad that someone cheated in order to get a participation award. I'd just laugh because they went through the effort to cheat for something that has no meaning except to the individual.



Trophies for me a personal achievements. I don't even look at other people's trophies, if i cheated then i wouldn't have the feeling of satisfaction.



Wouldn't your trophies all have the same "date earned" though? Cheating would be pretty obvious if that's the case.
