Rumor: PS3 'trophy' screen leaked, looks like Gamercard

You know, there's something wrong with the universe when people start ripping off Microsoft's ideas.

I think this looks nifty, though I am confused the leveling. (There was a screenshot showing a level-up system with leveling.) So, people will go in levels as to how ‘l33t’ they are, as opposed to a generalized number? That seems like a way to make people feel like crap fast for not leveling up. I imagine you will deal with some Level 5 gamers giving Level 1 gamers shit in Warhawk.

I'm curious how that will work exactly. Yet, I think the idea of achievements/trophies or whatever just adds a little fun to a game, and make you want to try new things. It’s a plus overall. People need to take the gamer scores and such less seriously and just enjoy it. If you hate the idea of people seeing what you play so much, then don't give everyone your username. Or play often on a back-up account. That way you can be all secret squirrel.

Why are people so scared of others seeing what games they play anyway? You are playing games in the first place. None of it makes you the higher echelon than the rest of us. (It makes me think some people may be a tad conceited.) Whether you get a trophy playing Catz with your girlfriend or one for killing Big Boss’s Chihuahua, it doesn’t have an impact on your life. Its all for fun.

Hate em on the 360
Will hate em on the PS3

Maybe sony will be nice and have an option to turn them off.

I can tell you now that those are real, but mock-ups. Expect things to change for the final release.

The main problem with this is that Sony are just aping Xbox Live. They haven't brought anything new to the table, and the thing they are bringing that's new- Home- looks like a complete waste of time.
