Now you too can have features available in 2003!! (jkjkjkjkjk)

In all seriousness, it looks like this seems to be a really cool update. Although it seems like a ripoff, the trophy system could be a neat edition to the PS3.

I think he means "ripoff" as in copycatting XBL, tho I do not agree. More features are always welcome. 37% downloaded right this second!

Well if you guys read correctly, he means a rip off of Live, obviously not a price rip-off.

Hahaha, yea I'm not too interested in this update, mainly because I'm not an "achievement whore" and not all games support the in-game music.

On a side note, you were right Fenix, MGS4 is amazing! Though I expected that, I'm an MGS fanboy haha

My question is, how are we going to know which games got achievements and which didn't? A list would be nice.

Uhhhh, then you need to put some music on your PS3. MLB 08 has supported custom soundtracks since day one.

I've been enjoying it too..

Saw you on GH:Aerosmith, what the verdict?
Reply

The verdict is its Guitar Hero legends of Rock with the Aerosmith story and songs. Its good if your into Guitar Hero but not worth full retail price if your not a diehard. I think they simply should have released it via PSN as a song download pack. The Aerosmith story is actually pretty cool. I am by no means a fan of the band but I find the game and the songs enjoyable to play. As far as I see there are no new characters or anything like that. I hope this type of release is not the future of the Guitar Hero franchise. I mean what's next Guitar Hero Metallica or GH The Doors. I am sure I will buy all of them because I really enjoy the rhythm games and its one of the few games I can play with my girl. We much prefer Rock Band to Guitar Hero because of the better overall songs, tons of DLC & of course I love banging the drums!!

I would say so far my opinion would be an 7.8/10 or C+ if you like. Its great if your into rhythm games in general otherwise the only appeal would be to Aerosmith fans. It's certainly not worth the full retail price though it does have some cool stuff following the bands roots and story.

So what S.StarDust only game with trophies now?

I hear games tied to your PSN account (Warhawk + Burnout Paradise) will have retroactive trophies
