Trophies Mandatory Come 2009
Written by Phoenix8387 
videogamer.com has reported that come January 2009 all titles must support Trophies. A SCEE spokesperson confirmed this when contacted by videogamer.com, stating “Yes from Jan 09 all games must have trophies.” Ended are the times where we will be forced to wait for a Trophy patch and replay the title completely to earn our Trophies.
There was no mention as to whether PSOne Classics will support Trophies or if Sony will ask developers to patch additional past titles.
Our frequent readers here know how much of a Trophy whore I can be… so it should come to no surprise to you that this has me completely stoked. It also means all those awesome looking games that are coming out next year will support Trophies. That means FF XIII and XIII Verses will get the wonderful Trophy treatment for all of those who cared… Which I expect is most of you do.
So… does this news excite you?

yay, that’ll be great.
Definitely some good news as of late
that’s some very good news.
- it’s cool, but it doesnt exicte me….trophies are straight, but just give me a good game, that’s all i really care about….
cool
I too am pleased about this news. I could only imagine how difficult it’s going to be to get all trophies for any FF game >.<
I like it.
Good thing, since developers saw that didn’t have to waste time on them. I want to see trophies on some games.
Now if they can just release Trophies for Disgaea 3… then… I will nergasm completely.
Just think though. White Knight Chronicle Trophies W00t
How about making custom music mandatory too…
damm what about custom sound tracks
I doubt custom soundtracks, ingame video or screenshots functioning will ever become mandatory. I think Sony leaves that up to the devs for a reason, music has a pretty major affect on your gaming experience. I don’t think forcing it should be a priority, but I think most devs will start supporting it shortly.
anyone know when the Fallout 3 update is out??
I can help but feel it won’t happen, notice how all the quotes say should instead of will
@ musicmonk
Not sure what your talking about… I’m guessing it was to the previous comment, in which it HAS been confirmed that it will get Trophies.
@ joro55
No date just yet, even the Trophy list hasn’t been added… and it usually take at least a week or so for most trophy patches to drop.
This is nothing but great news. Too bad it wasn’t done sooner, so that some of the big titles released this year had them..But hopefully we’ll see some more patches
MOST of the years bigger titles did support them… atleast the ones that launched about a month after Trophies did. Fallout 3 is the only ‘big’ title that I can think of that didn’t launch with Trophies. R2, Mirror’s Edge, MotorStorm:PR, CoD:WaW and LBP all launched with Trophies.
