How about FFXI?
OH LAWD!
I doubt they could make them more insanely tedious than the achievements. If I'm not mistaken, you have to hit the level cap for EVERY class.

Great so basically trophies for ps2 and psx games
Wow, I don't love cheese mints or anything but that is really clever. Totes tickles my nerd bone.
You are right. Title is kinda stupid.
I changed it (still weird imo) but obviously that doesn't change the thread..emm..title.
Maybe a mod can jump in.
Anyways EN not my 1st language - titles can get tricky at times
So I read this a few times...

Ok, so that would be a pretty sweet way to let people get Trophies from PS1 and PS2 classics
You know it makes sense now. Just tie them to the skill points.oh crap. this is going to be a whole new pile of e-mails eh?

I want to see the reaction of MGS4 trophy guy. Is he ok?
Haha.
Quite honestly, I would imagine it's more difficult to correlate disc accesses with trophies than it would be to reverse engineer compiled code and manually place triggers (and certainly trickier than going back through original source code).
It sounds quite easy, but it would be limited to things like finishing a level, finishing the game and very predictable things like that.
I'm not into trophies,but it's interesting to see what games people play at least.
Over two years, and this finally happens.
Incredible how long the process takes, but I'm not complaining. Just give me The Legend of Dragoon and Chrono Cross, and I'm a happy man.
Higher res real time cutscenes LOD....-drooling-
Imagine after this scene
-trophy unlocked, survived Kongol at full health-
Haha, that is one game I would really like to platinum. I've done everything in it a few times but could do with an added incentive to play it again.If FF12 were ever given trophies I'm pretty sure I would develop a blood clot in both of my legs for never standing up.
I remember Stumpokapow posting screenshots of his FCEUX proof of concept three or four years ago. I wonder if that ever turned into .something.Didnt some emulators had this already for some roms? I kind of remember seeing some news piece about it and thinking that it was cool.
We are left wondering now what this patent is being used for exactly.
If there were no plans to support discs, the whole patent idea would be pointless, so they must have thought of supporting discs at least.
When Wired asked for disc emulation support, they received a "no comment", as stated in the other thread. Well... that leaves us with:
- Disc support is definitely on the cards, but it is unknown to what extent
- Trophy support for disc emulation would require at least some kind of support from the publisher/developer to add the patented mechanism to the emulation layer (like defining what trophy will be awarded at what time in the game)
--> this would shrink the list of supported games
... but then again, I am not inclined to believe that Sony would implement a half-assed disc-based emulation in the kind of "50 select games have trophies, all the others have not".
Of course it's nearly impossible to provide trophy support for the whole or almost whole library... Well, it's been in the works long enough. Can't wait what they will show us at PSX about this whole thing!
The patent application (I am reading it) is intentionally broad in that regard. At some point(s) it refers to "one or more storage media", so the patent covers both downloaded and disc-based games."Disc" could also just be codeword for "ISO" for them you know. It doesn't actually have to be physical disks
