Trophies are fun and all but sometimes I would just like to play a game without being told in the form of a tone that I achieved yet another trophy. I think trophies are a great idea but Sony should allow users to have a choice whether to have a notice on trophies achieved or not. By disabling the trophies in games you can still get them but you wont be told unless you go to to the trophy section in the XMB. Anyway agree?

Come on Sony make this happen!

I guess having the option would be nice for people who want it, but I rather like the tone and notice. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside:D.

The sound that let's you know you just got a trophy isn't that bad and it doesn't distract from the game in any way.

I hope for an option where even if I do things that gets me trophy, I don't get it.

I don't want people to know that I have no life.

Have you tried turning the "Display message notifications" feature off? I know that it applies to PM's, text chat, and people online/offline, but maybe it will turn off trophy notifications too? Try it...

I wish I could disable trophies altogether. I started inFamous on my lil bro's PS3. I am almost done with my first playthrough, and when I tried to transfer my save data to my PS3, it won't let me. I assume this is because of trophies and they don't want people getting them this way. It kind of sucks imo.

i have that ting on a cd, just looping ever 4 seconds. That way, when im driving my car, I can imagine im achieving trophies for things im doing!

Stopped at a set of traffick lights - TING!

Looked out the left window 25 times during one driving session - TING!

Listened to a whole song on a cd without skipping - TING!

Just joking, but i love the trophy noise!

If you were logged in under your username in the PSN, it will transfer over. As far as the trophy notification goes, I don't see why not having a notification would be a big deal...but I also don't see why you wouldn't want the "ding of awesomeness". Heck i've done a lot of challenges just to get that "ding".

I wouldn't mind having that option. I enjoy trophies but they can kill the mood of a good cut scene.

I like the sound, it's better than the bleep-bloop of the 360.

(Even that sounds pretty cool)

The trophy alert tone isn't even annoying. I hear it, see what trophy I get, and keep playing. It takes no more than a couple seconds and I'm surprised there are people who let it get to them.

I like the ting. Especially after beating a really hard boss, the black loading screen comes on, and then you hear the "ting". Feels good man.
