\o/ First.


Got 2.4 & Stardust patch this morning, but still have no trophies. The game makes no mention of what's required to get each trophy, but I have since read the list online.

Can't wait for wireless Buzz action this weekend.

Isn't there a way to see the list of trophies in the XMB, and descriptions of the ones you've yet to win? Otherwise how are you supposed to know what you're trying to do?

To See how to obtain trophys its easy

You just press the PS button then go to the Trophys menu and it will list all your trophy enabled games if you go into a game on that list it will list all the trophys there are available

I currently have 1 Bronze one -^_^

Well done! Is your launch machine still going or are you on your second or third by now?

Doesn't Uncharted already have built-in medals?

To be honest I don't see a huge reason why these medal/achievements should be added anyway, I much prefer unlocking in-game content over something which doesn't really do anything useful.

Well done Nick_JC1. Good for you. I wasn't.

Looking forward to a 2nd play through of Uncharted. I thought that had a pretty good built in Reward System anyway with all the trinkets you could collect and unlocking of Behind the scenes videos. This should add a little more to the game though.

EDIT: I snooze I lose... :-)

Uncharted better be retroactive, so i don't have to do a thing. :P

Speaking of which even though I DID get 100% there were still some things that were locked... I better check gamefaqs or something about that.

I was getting these trophies in 2005 on my Xbox 360

No you weren't. You were getting gamerscore. Idiot.

2005 on my Xbox 360

..never gets old does it?

I like the way that it's laid out, the leveling up system is good I think.

I've got one silver and a few bronze so far. Trying to last 45 seconds without boost or weapons in survival was a total stress. At 20 seconds hell is unleashed big time. I kept hitting 40 seconds and pushed 43 for a while but finally got to 47 secs.

Prepare for trophies to become the "Best thing ever" amongs Sony fans who previously said they were pointless/crap. The funnies thing about this whole thing is that all you've gotten is a stunted version of what MS have been providing for nearly 2 years now.

Gonna be funny.

What's funny is your poor attempt at trolling and your grammer in that post, despite the fact you actually went back and edited it.

Surprised it has taken Sony over 3 years to copy what MS had been telling everyone they were going to do.

It's a great little extra - and with the addition of in game XMB also ala 360 - makes me much more likely to purchase a PS3 - well done Sony for seeing sense and giving gamers what they want.

Super Stardust HD trophies at 30% now.

And by the way, that Retro sound option is bloody brilliant, init!

SSHD, one of my all time fave's. Like it more that Bad Company and a ton of other "pretty good but not as good as it should be" releases.

Shame Resistance isn't getting a patch. Then we'd get a trophy for teabagging ;)

I still find it funny how the Xbots keep saying it's the same. No it isn't. Trophies only come in 4 different denominations, Gamerscore much more. And Trophies have a persistent RPG-style levelling system. It may make achievements more fairly laid out, too, instead of getting lots of little 5-pointers for doing massive things (Forza2, anyone?)

Both systems are good, and different. I for one am looking forward to trophywhoring.

Most reports suggest this has nothing to do with Home and will be more like Miis.

The rumored GamerPad 3D world does sound like Home but with cartoonish Mii-avatars instead.

I guess it is just a logical evolution from gamer pictures (or custom forum pictures like all the WoW character stats). people like to personalize their looks on their GTs. You will be able to buy costumes as well ofc.

MS will probably include 360 SDK support for including these in your game. But yeah... the use is limited since you really cannot integrate this without breaking the "immersion" of games ;) I guess it will be limited to GT displays on web and on Live. It is a small effort to develop this for MS and it will probably be very popular.

BTW Gamerpad 3D is also not Home.... it is more like housing in MMORPGs. No big MMO-like world (like Home)... just a "house" only that your friends can visit. No real use IMHO... but if people want it I have no probs with it.

Well a certain trophy in SSHD is pissing me off because it's disrupting my concentration, half of me wants to beat my high score the other half wants to survive for 7 minutes. >:(

I've never had beef with achievements, they've been prevelant in PS3 games, like Uncharted, Ratchet and Clank, Resistance and MGS4 (which I recently got the Big boss emblem), it's the overall gamerscore across the board (do any Xbox 360 achievements even award you with in-game stuff?) That makes me not understand the achievement whore culture of people playing games for the achievements rather than having fun with the game.

For example someone won't even attempt the Big Boss emblem in MGS4 because it doesn't have a trophy attached to it, the unlockables you get for getting said emblem isn't motivation enough...wtf!?

I find it funny how all the Playstation fanboys are excited about the trophy system even though they have been saying how crap the gamerscore feature is on 360 for the past 2 years!

The gamerscore system is much better than trophys and ranks imo - especially since it doesn't support every game, it doesn't make much sense!

Because i'm a RPG nut i will have the natural urge to GET TO LEVEL 99.

And eventually trophy's will be mandatory with all games, just teething problems because it wasn't introduced at the start.

Just been playing Stardust to see what all the fuss is about with the trophies and it hit me how technically amazing the game is. I remember reading some where that this game pushes The Cell like no other game on PS3.

Regardless of its technical merits, Super Stardust HD is a bloody good, bloody addictive game, possibly the best sub-£10 downloaded game I've played on either PSN or XBLA. Not even Geometry Wars Evolved comes close, and certainly not visually or aurally either; in comparison the 360 game looks like a C64 download! LOL

Not too sure about the "pushing the Cell" remark, but it is one of the best games ever. And one of the best games on PS3.
I've played COD4 for more than 100 hours, but time-wise, SSHD takes second place with ease.

For a downloadable game, that quite an achievement... euh... Trophy :D

i kept telling myself i wasnt gonna go this ive got nearly 33 thousand on the other thing "stick with the old one i kept saying to myself"..and what have i done...say playing SSHD for 3 hours straight going "this achievement is fucking impossible" over and over...

its a "plung" instead of a "clunk"

my only issue is that the achieves are a little bit all over the place.. some bronzes being harder than silvers and one gold being much easier than a load of the silver ones... but i guess gta has this issue also (10 points for delivering 30 cars against 40 points for flying under 13 bridges)

some of the silver ones that you need to purchase the extra add on for also are downright nasty

SONY UNCHARTED NOW!

I can see reward-less achievements being beneficial to "small" games like SSHD, the game is addictive on it's own merits and I've just spent alot of time getting the survive 7 minutes and nuke 10 times on endless mode.

Don't think i'll try the easier ones on arcade though, Arcade mode seems...too slow compared to what is in the solo pack and to what i'm used to. :(

Damn my s***ty cousin, i wanted to get the Co-op achievement lol.

ok Darren and Beano, you aren't included!
But no-one else has spoken out about how much they don't like the idea of having the "idiotic" achievements like the 360!

oh well, Sony knows they can't win the console war so they try to make their console like a 360 with a bit of Wii included :)
