Dragon-Of-MSoft Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I just bought TLOS:DOTD and found out it does not contain any trophy. Can't believe this. One of my favourite childhood games does not have trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJacs2 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 There are no trophies for any PS1 or PS2 classic on the PS Store, so why would there be any for this game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigma999 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) That's correct. The Legend of Spyro : Dawn of the Dragon don't have trophy support cause it was launched in a time where trophies where rather an option than a obrigation to include in a game. I also have some games that doesn't have trophies because they were launched in the first years of ps3 like DMC 4, Resistance Fall of Man (launch title), Afro Samurai and some others. There are no trophies for any PS1 or PS2 classic on the PS Store, so why would there be any for this game? He's talking about the Legend of Spyro : Dawn of the Dragon. That one was launch as a PS3 game in 2008 and also in the PS2. Edited January 18, 2015 by Jiaho24 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Freaker Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) As of 2009 trophies became present in all PS releases, but before 2009 most developpers didn't bother Some games were patched, some games were re-released and some games never got trophy support. Example: The Darkness was never patched, but games like Uncharted 1 was patched and re-released in various bundles with trophy support. So all games before 2009 might have no trophy support. This goes for all PS one/two games, unless they are HD collection, but then again they were released after 2009 so it counts now.

Dragon-Archon Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Trophies became mandatory at the end of 2008/start of 2009. Anything released prior to that has no trophies, unless the developers added them with a patch (like Uncharted 1 and Star Wars The Force Unleashed).

Dragon-Archon Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Didn't know that Uncharted 1 didn't had trophies on release. I played it with a bundle of ps3 together with Resistance Fall of Man. Uncharted 1 had an ingame Medal system, so the developers linked them to the trophies. At the time it was a great thing: an amazing game combined with trophies. which is also the reason one of the first trophies I got was for collecting 40 or so treasures . After that all the physical copies already had a trophy set. DMC4 doesn't have trophies, but it has achievements on Xbox 360... See quotes below: As of 2009 trophies became present in all PS releases, but before 2009 most developpers didn't bother Some games were patched, some games were re-released and some games never got trophy support.

MoreTheVictim Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 DMC4 doesn't have trophies, but it has achievements on Xbox 360... X360 had achievements before PS3 had trophies. Games like AC1 and COD4 have achievements on X360 but have no trophies on PS3 simply because at the time of their release achievements existed but trophies did not and they did not wanted to patch the PS3 version.

Dr_Mayus Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 That game needs a trophy patch.. If games like Resistance, Ratchet & Clank ToD, Assassin's Creed and DMC4 didn't warrant a patch, I doubt a smaller title like Spyro would get one. Even with the success of Skylander's didn't warranted a patch for Spyro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilseb93 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Sony should add trophies to PS1 game. Many people would go out and buy some PS1 games if they had trophies. I know I would. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon-Of-MSoft Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks for explaining. I didn't expect that and I am kind of frustrated. With trophies, the enjoyment would be doubled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Cutscene Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I'm holding out for trophies for the original Assassin's Creed and Ratchet & Clank: Tools of destruction hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demigod Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 DMC4 doesn't have trophies, but it has achievements on Xbox 360... Yeah this always anoyed me, since these games have achievements a simple patch shouldnt be hard, right? Anywho, the annoyance stems from playing Eternal Sonata on 360, loosing my account, starting again on PS3 and then going back to a new 360 for the achievements.

Stevieboy Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yeah this always anoyed me, since these games have achievements a simple patch shouldnt be hard, right? I'm sure I read somewhere that some earlier games couldn't have a patch to implement trophies. Something to do with the way the games were coded at the time. I wish I could remember the details, or even where I read the article so I could link it. That could be the reason why some of the more popular games didn't get a patch even though there were Xbox 360 achievements already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the success of Skylander's didn't warranted a patch for Spyro. I never said or expected the game to get one, it'd just be nice. All those games are worthy of a trophy patch imo, it's up to the developers as opposed to whether they 'warrant' one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, this is why Eternal Sonata keeps getting pushed further and further down my backlog pile. If it had trophies, I'd probably play it when I'm done with Symphonia.

Kittet3 Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 DMC4 doesn't have trophies, but it has achievements on Xbox 360... Agreed. My friend got me this as a b-day present since the back of the box said trophies... Ever had a box lie to me as much as that one. Now that I went around the topic, I agree with what people said. Trophy support wasn't included in early PS3 games and not many of them got patched. Even some digital games don't have trophies for some reason (Dust 514, I'm thinking of you) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trophies didn't exist, it wasn't a feature of the Playstation yet. There was nothing for the developers to implement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trophies first appeared with the 2.40 update on 2nd July 2008, but didn't become mandatory until Jan 2009. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, that's why I havent been hired as a developer, well that and the zero experience I have with game development. Yep, this is why Eternal Sonata keeps getting pushed further and further down my backlog pile. If it had trophies, I'd probably play it when I'm done with Symphonia. You should really give the game a chance, even without trophies the game deserves a play. ooh that and Valkyria Chronicles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
