Sony seems to be exploring different ways/reasons to award trophies to users, even for games that don't natively support them.
To be more specific, in this patent application they talk about awarding trophies using disk access "triggers".
You can get a general idea of how it works below.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for adding trophy support games that do not have trophies without modifying the original game. The method and apparatus are used to detect particular disk access, use the detected disk access as potential trophy triggers in games, and recognize the triggers while a game is played. Trophies are awarded based on the triggers, and the awarded trophies are stored.
