any trophies you unlock going forward


I'd imagine the people who haven't wasted their time unlocking trophies for no credit and now have plenty of potential credit awaiting them

I mean it's not a great incentive to trophy hunt but for those who already do it it's a great bonus

Honest question. Do they possibly have inside info on Nintendo's achievement system coming which is somehow combined with their rewards program? Maybe this is like a "we're gonna do it first" thing?

It is a rumor. They do need to add more content to their online package, so I could see it.

$10 every 10 platinums, huh? That's a nice incentive to complete games.

Well, we're working under the assumption that a lot of us do care about getting trophies already. If it was retroactive I could have like $20 from platinums.

Also, this uses the same site as the rewards for buying stuff on PSN. It's like 1% back for that. I guess I don't buy as much anymore since I haven't used it in a while, but that site worked within reason. The lowest values of gift cards were sold out a lot and it was down sometimes. On the upside, you can pay the difference in value to get a gift card.

Thats the point though. You already get platinums. They are giving people like you money for no reason.

That isnt a good business plan.

make sure to unlock the trophy stuff on your sonyrewards account before you go out trophy gathering. it has to be manually unlocked.

It's good publicity, a trivial amount of free credit, and remember, there are only so many trophies per game. And, significantly, 0-1 platinums. So it can encourage buying new games (although I'd like to see the people who have completed anywhere near the games they own).
