the only problem sony are having with 2.4 is the xmb but trophies are no doubt ready by now. its are a fairly simple feature to implement it hardly requiers much for them to be unlocked in-game as long as devs have the feature put into their game.

i wish that sony would just release trophies now and then next month (which is when they will release 2.4) release a perfect fully working in game xmb. trophies will keep us happy until then rather that having to wait another month to get bothat once.

but sony wont do this so which of the 2 features of the 2.4 patch are you looking forward to most?

i want trophies. i only have like 6 friends and i never get messages, i would like the music in game providing sony have found a way around microsofts patient but most game soundtracks are pretty good these days. i want trophies because it might finally make me want to finish folklore and replay all of my old games that will support trophies. i have a 360 and as stupid as gamescores are for some reason i still want to get them, i got prey with it and i HATE the game yet i still play it to get the points. if the ps3 had this it would add so much more play time to all my games which would be brilliant.

Couldn't care less about trophies, I just want to be able to read messages without quitting games and to listen to my own music while playing.

Trophies would only be useful for people that want bragging rights over others, it would be nice for replayability but in game XMB would be so much more useful.

I want trophies more because it gives me a reason to play over my games that i have beaten. But the in game xmb will be cool, just as long as they let me use a zune for music! LOL.

XMB for sure, I have no interest in trophies and its gonna cause mroe achievment farming and cheating etc. If no one has has anything to gain then, then they wont cheat. Not that i have some moral issue with achievment farming or cheating, its just a bit annoying online when you want to play a propper game.

I find it a bit odd that soo many people need motivation to play games over again, should just how fun the game is be motavation. If its not fun, then stop playing, or if you need to have goals, why not jsut set your own.

it kinda ia but think of it more as an achievement more than bragging rights. when u play cod4 online and get urself a great profile or whatever once u stop playing that game or when the servers are shut down (which wont happen for years but still) then ur profile is lost or no longer viewed but if you have a trophy for 10'000 kills then u can see all that in the 1 place without having to launch the game. for games like team fortress that dont have ranking systems trophies would give you something to work toward.

in game xmb wont make you play games any more or less but trophies will make you play more to unlock them all

To keep it real I could do without both. It's not a major feature for me.

I'd prefer trophies as I haven't had a need to access anything on my XMB while playing a game yet. Plus I need to start getting trophies together for my trophy room in my HOME. Here's to hoping some trophies unlock items for customizing your HOME/Avatar.

I'm really not that excited about either. In game XMB could come in handy I guess, and it would be cool to see some trophies for all of the games I've played but I'm not too worried about it.

trophies will add replayablity to games even short games so you might want to play it more, but in-game xmb is would be great not quiting a game all the time.

I don't care about the trophies. I don't need to impress anyone with my gaming skills. But in game xmb is something I'm looking forward to.

I'd much rather have in-game XMB. Trophies are a nice addition, but I really don't care about the reward system. I can just enjoy a game until I'm done with it and no more.

Both are nice features, but in-game XMB is way more important to me. Although it is nice to have, I could do it without archievements/trophies...

you guys do realize that in-game xmb doesn't mean you'll be able to listen to music while in game right? microsoft has a patent on this at the moment (damn ms..)...but just listen to it on ur stereo i guess...

lol, same here. But Sony will never let zunes work. I'm sure they have some code that checks to see if it is a zune specifically plugged in. iPods play fine though. But then again, i don't like ipods, so external hdd is the way to go.

Trophies for sure, until we are able to play our own music in-game. Other than that I won't really use in-game xmb, because I don't have many friends with a ps3, most have 360s.

In game XMB by a metric ton. Custom soundtracks are actually useful. Virtual trophies are not.

In-game XMB (in-game messaging, cross-game private chat, specifically) by a landslide. Trophies mean next to nothing to me.

In game XMB. I don't really care about trophies. I was getting mostly everything in my games since the SNES, simply because I liked it. I play a game for the fun of the game, not to show off to everyone about what I did.

Having to quit a game to reply to a message has been a pain since launch.

who the hell is so stupid to go for trophies a non sense invention with no role... in-game XMB should have been incorpored in our ps3s since day 1 so thats what i call a real need not not a stupid copied trophy=achievment for small kids...

do you really think that trophies are a big need for your gaming experience(which will probably not work either as it should just ask 360's fanboys... its a crap with no sense)?¿

in-game is a great need for a console i just hate having to quit the game for a moment to check things...
