Sony details PS3 Trophies in update v2.4

Sony has been quite busy lately, detailing XMB access in-game and now Trophies coming in PS3 firmware update v2.40 due out on the 2nd of July.

Firmware v2.40 Walkthrough Part 2 takes a closer look at the Trophy system. Head over to SCEA’s PlayStation blog to watch the video demo.

As previously reported Sony confirmed that Super Stardust HD will be the first game to make use of the Trophy system. If you purchase the game for the first time the trophy support will be available soon after v2.40 is released but if have already downloaded the game you will have to install a free patch.

Sony promised more games including Trophy support “through 2008 and beyond.” Until then the list of first party games that are scheduled to include Trophy support include BUZZ! Quiz TV, LittleBigPlanet, MotorStorm Pacific Rift, NBA 09 - PS3, PAIN, PixelJunk Eden, Resistance 2, SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Confrontation and Warhawk.

Firmware update v2.40 also adds a mini-control panel that gamers can use while playing music as well as a Google internet search feature enabling gamers to start a search directly from the XMB (similar to the recent PSP update).

The time and date will be displayed in the top right hand corner when gamers are using the XMB or accessing the XMB from in-game. Sony also promised a “few minor enhancements” that will be revealed once the update is live.
