Question about getting the Hard trophy on Uncharted 2.

OK, I finished the game on Easy. Then, I went to Chapter Select, started with Chapter 1, and chose Hard as the difficulty. I just read somewhere that if you finish a game that already has trophies and treasures, you won't get the trophy for finishing on a higher difficulty. Is this true? I'm already to the Mountaineering level on Hard. Have I done all that for nothing?

Are you supposed to create a new save file for each difficulty with it's own set of treasures, medals, and trophies? That doesn't make sense though because there is not enough money to buy everything in the store unless you have all 3 gold trophies and the platinum trophy.

Whoever told you that is stupid, and you can tell them I said that.:P

No, the only thing of note is that if you finish on a higher difficulty, you get the trophies for all the difficulties below that one (if you didn't have them already). So since you said you played it on Easy first, now you will get Normal and Hard when you beat it on Hard. Also, trophies for kills with different weapons are cumulative, meaning you don't have to do it all one on playthrough. You can continue racking up kills on subsequent playthroughs or just by doing chapter select and restarting checkpoints. The only thing that they might have meant (which it doesn't sound like they do) is that you must beat the game on Hard to unlock Crushing difficulty.

Hope this helps.
