Forums - Sony Discussion - 3D Trophy List

I was looking at the Memory Card Utility for PS/PS2 for the BC of my PS3 and I saw something cool.  The saved data contains animated 3d images associated with games, and this was being displayed on the XMB!  So XMB already has the ability of rendering 3D items, so I'm wondering why there aren't any XMB themes or game trophy uses the 3d capability of XMB, it would be pretty cool to see your trophies turning around (while animating) when you highlight them on the trophy screen.  What's the deal?  How come all PS3 trophies are just boring images?

Doesn't seem like the biggest priority seeing as the majority of people probably wouldn't care or even notice the change.

shyeah...  someone should kick some sense into them.



Probably cause nobody really cares about spinning 3D trophies? And if that were a feature they had better have an option to stop the spinning, cause that would annoy the crap out of me. Nothing that anyone sane looks at their trophies for more than a few seconds.

Do you remember the first time you've seen the inventory system of Resident Evil and the gun could be rotated when you inspected it? That was the bomb. I almost nearly wanted to buy a PS back then if I wasn't too busy collecting comics and playing FPS on my 486 at the time. But still, I nearly almost bought one.

Some animation in the trophy would be awesome, static and lifeless 3D-like images just don't feel like a "Trophy" if you ask me.



Are you talking 3d as in polygons...or 3D as in shutter glasses and 3D ready TV? Maybe they are waiting for PS3 to be "3D ready"?



yes polygons, XMB supports it under Memory Card Utility if your PS3 has BC, wait you don't have one do you?

I did...but yes, I don't have one at the moment.  If ps3 becomes 3D ready, I will have several :)



I don't get it...

It's doing the exact same thing that the PS2 did when you viewed your memory card data....
