One of Microsoft's requirements for Xbox 360 certification is the incorporation of achievements into every XBL Arcade and retail release. With the introduction of the Home service, Sony's introducing a similar concept with trophies, which players can hang in their room and earn however the developer determines. However that happens, they're meant to be a collectible, but Sony exec. Phil Harrison says it's not about to become a requirement to get certified on PS3.
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
Originally launched in 2011, El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is coming to Nintendo Switch, so It's time to look back at the original.
Still have my ps3 copies. Bought it at launch and another one when I found it cheap and in perfect condition about 10 years ago. I wouldn’t buy it on Switch but if they made a PS5 version I would. I still have one of my PS3 Fats hooked up so good to go either way.
Id play it again on the switch. I wished my 360 version was bc but this is still a good way to play.

People are stupid I get it. No one should feel unsafe,
But I think they need to talk about why they cut so many corners during the development process and why none of their games ever look current. And why they think all of this is okay while they charge full price.
If they don't enforce it for certification then developers will simply not spend time on it. Probably Sony will, but not third party developers. I can understand why Sony wouldn't make it a requirements, I already have a total of 300-400 achivements, if Sony would enforce it than my HOME would be more of a junk yard than anything else.
I invite anyone to my Home and uhhhhggg.. find/compare my trophies with theirs. mmm.. I wonder if it would be more practical/quicker having a 2d list that allows me to compare what trophies I have or what I'm missing from a particular game. Wait a minute.. isnt that xbox live does!
I think Sony not enforcing it is more of a good thing. Takes a load of the developers to come up with some achievements. Though if the games were on the 360 and PS3, I don't see a reason why they shouldn't add it for the PS3 version of the game because they can just use the same achievements for the trophies.
with trophies or achievements. If a team has already spent month designing and developing a game, they should know the in and outs pretty darn well. It can't take that long for trophies to be decided on. I enjoy playing games, but MS achievements with the 360 have added a whole nother level to gaming. It can't the PS3 to have something similar.
