Sony PS3 Trophies: is your game in this list?
If you are an owner of a Sony PS3, then you will know that it is a big day for us, as the new 2.40 firmware update has adding the much anticipated Trophies feature. However; do not get too exited just yet, as most games do not yet support this feature. Some games will already support the feature, but one game, Super Stardust HD will require you to download an expansion pack, called the “solo pack”, this will then be followed by the “team pack”. These patches will feature Versus Match, Co-Op, true 5.1 orchestral soundtrack, split screen, trophies and ship editor. The free 4.00 patch will give you 17 trophies; you have to buy the additional expansion content to get these trophies.
Games that already support PS3 Trophies are LittleBigPlanet, MotorStorm: Pacific Rift, NBA 09, as well as SOCOM: US Navy SEALs Confrontation. We have also learned that Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, BioShock, Burnout Paradise and Warhawk will get a patch to allow you to use the new “Trophies” feature. Ok a couple of these games are great and gamers will be exited to know that they can now use the new trophies in one of the above games, but come on guys where is the Trophies Support for Call of Duty 4. Ok so we know that Call of Duty 5 is released in November and that will get the new Trophy Support, but that is going back to the WWII story, boring.
If you would to read a hands on review about the Sony PlayStation 3 Firmware Update 2.40 then read here. The new Trophy feature will use a four tier system, bronze, silver, gold, and platinum, these trophies will be assigned by each games developer and not by Sony. The bronze medal will be awarded for competing an easy feat, and gold for the very hard ones. Once all three have been completed, you will then receive the platinum medals.
