Bionic Commando PS3 has Achievements

Ben Judd, the Producer of Capcom's forthcoming Bionic Commando, has revealed that the PlayStation 3 version of the game will include its own reward system known as 'Trophies', which acts in a similar manner to the Xbox 360's own achievements.

[xhi4]

I think you mean.........'Accomplishments' lol

OH and just to let everyone know, my psychic like mind tells me that in the Sony keynote, they will announce Home to be released incredibly soon, they will announce in game xmb and such.

Lol if it comes true everyone owes me a dollar....or a bubble lol :D

[Fishy Fingers]

Dude do you know when their keynote takes place?? ill give you a bubble just for that!

[Capt CHAOS]

These are nothing without global online gamercards, that's what drives the need to complete achievements.. bragging rights

[Jdoki]

Capt Chaos...

While HOME may not implement global gamercards, the Trophy Room I've seen in a few videos would indicate a similar device for 'bragging' to friends.

I wonder if Trophy Rooms can be made Public, so other players can walk around them?

[Fishy Fingers]

That would be cool, especially if you can enter it straight from your apartment.

Im sure others will be able to view it mind, regardless of how.

[MaximusPrime]

the word "accomplishment" takes time to get used to, just like "achievement" and some other words.

[Capt CHAOS]

It's be pointless otherwise. THat'll be pretty cool.

[Panthers]

Trophy rooms will be cool. I am looking forward to Socom implementing Accomplishments. Hopefully they will not only have individual accomplishments, but also clan ones. Like if your clan wins so many wars and whatnot.

[TrevorPhillips]

yeh i guess your right

[TehRadge]

I wonder if there'll be a 5GB install

[Jdoki]

Who knows... But it does seem like multiplatform Capcom titles require it.

The backlash they are getting for DMC and Lost Planet may make them re-evaluate the decision though...

Personally I'm OK with the 5GB install.

[Keowrath]

I was wondering the same thing. I have no issues with the install on games that I'm looking forward to. Bionic Commando is one such title and I'm sure I can 5gb if it's required.

"Accomplishment: You installed the game!"

[tahersaid]

another 5GB install? lol

[DrPirate]

There will be.

[vloeistof]

oke so when is sony going to show somthing.

home,litlebigplanet,xmb,resis tance2

[Relcom]

to many let downs.

So if it comes it comes

[TrevorPhillips]

dunno yet im guessing very soon

[PumPum]

Id rather want challenges like COD4 than achievements.
Achievements are useless, i only go about 3000 on my 360 (had 15 games) before i sold it.

[Jdoki]

If done well Achievments/Accomplishments/Tr ophies/whatever can really extend replay value for some gamers.

I played Crackdown far longer than I thought I would just to complete a few more challenges. It added fun and made me play the game differently than I may have otherwise approached it.

The challenges in CoD4 are pretty sweet as well. Using weapons I wouldn't normally bother with. Or trying to get the 'kill someone by shooting an explosive device through a wall' challenge!

[BloodySinner]

...and the original story title was changed for what logical reason?

[SI7VER]

Like 10 smaller trophies put together make one massive trophy. That would make the trill of getting trophies even MORE addicting IMO.

-777-

[THC CELL]

they need to make unique trophy's only one person or like 10 should earn em
u are also able to sell them on

[Fishy Fingers]

I like the idea of selling them on, take advantage of the noobs lol...

[tony]

the ps3 will have achievements in new games. that will make "home" competitive with xbl..

[kewlkat007]

"Ben Judd, the Producer of Capcom’s forthcoming Bionic Commando, has revealed that the PlayStation 3 version of the game will include its own reward system known as ‘Trophies’, which acts in a similar manner to the Xbox 360's own achievements. "

Is this something Capcom is putting in there is is it a PSN function that will be the trend for all games and it will be called Trophies?

[crinale]

could be related to PSHome. Well, we'll see..

[SL1M DADDY]

Yay, so does DMC4... What's new with Capcom games?

[solidt12]

Sweet. Uncharted has the same thing.

[JohnRico]

& Sony Droids rags on Microsoft for "Copying" when this is Sonys version of "achievements". Copying is copying no matter what is changed from the original. Even the amazing Sony does it & that is sarcasm for the amazing part

[heyheyhey]

they have "copied" the idea, but at least they had the courtesy of building upon the concept by making "trophies" which are 3D representations instead of just a number to represent your score

[gamesblow]

Bionic Commando for the ps3 has achievements............. & a 5 gig install. win and win!

[ElementX]

I dunno about this whole HOME thing. I mean, sure it'll be fun to view trophies the first few times, however I like a number system for quick comparisons.

[TalyngarTheBlack]

I'm probably in the minority but I don't see the need for Achievements or Accomplishment, or whatever they're being called this week. I've seen too many good gamers play crappy games or play games too often just to get some mythical points to enhance their e-penis. "My gamerscore is higher than yours, YAY!!!". Seriously? The fact that you played TMNT and Avatar The Last Airbender all the way through doesn't make you cooler, it makes you sad. But enjoy that fictional win.

[Chubear]

A vast number of the PS fanbase find "achievements" (the way they're done onthe 360) rather pointless and would prefer something with substance.

We generally don't give a rat's ass about braggin about a numerical figure but rather having a certain item for others to see shows them that you did something great but that doesn't neccessarily mean you're a better gamer than someone else which is what a lot of people on live tend to view acheivements as.

There are actually people would won't play with you on Live if they feel your score isn't high enough - utter bullocks.

The PS fanbase jsut prefer substance to our accomplishments that actually reward us and mean something not give us some false lame sense of gaming superiority.

[godoftime]

something is better than nothing

[Salvadore]

Does anybody know when precisely their press conference is held?

[jackdoe]

I wonder if Capcom USA will shove a mandatory install down PS3 owners' throats as well.
