i imagine Sony can make it a requirement for all future ps3 games, but for games that's already released it's up to the developers who made 'em to patch trophy rewards...you'd think most of them would jump at the opportunity to support something that alot of gamers are wanting, if nothing but for the replay value of their game(s)?

edit: give it time, it'll catch on...

At this point the games that get trophies sooner will sell more. Just look at Super Stardust HD, it already got more sales because of it. Burnout, Unchartd, Warhawk...they will get more sales too when the patches come.

Very true. I bought Super Stardust HD after 2.41 came out and I am seriously looking at getting Burnout/Warhawk. I always wanted to get Uncharted cause it reminded me of 24: The Game game's gameplay.

I'm guity too, I just want a nice shiny platinum trophy *drools*. Stupid gold co-op trophy. I already have Warhawk and Uncharted so thats cool and when the patch comes I'll get burnout. LBP has trophies too right?

It's completely up to the developers and just give them a little time before judging them.

considering they're releasing free DLC (camo, songs, podcast, etc.), i wouldn't be surprised to see a patch sometime soon, after they've all taken a nice vacation, lol

I don't think Sony can force them to make trophy patches, I don't see why Sony can't just make an agreement to let their people patch the games with trophies if the developers don't want to, it would sure make the trophy feature alot more useable.

It's going to be a requirement. Probably not to go into full effect until 2009 though, maybe for the Fall releases but some are already too far in development to just add them with the game.

if i remmeber correctly, in one of SONY'S conferences they said they dont force developers to go exclusive and all that, so im assuming they wont force them to put accomplishments or trophies, they basically layed out the ground work for them and gave them the option to do so. but i do believe the future games, bioshock, resistance 2 killzon god of war so on will have them, but forcing ISNT sonys thing

For them to be able to force them into that, they would have be under contract -pre-release. I don't think Sony pulled that one off. It's certainly possible for future releases though.

All this upset over trophies. I remember when people were saying that Gamerscore was stupid.

I don't think they can force them, but it would be really nice if it hapened.
