I actually like this myself. Everyone starts on the same page, and more people get interested in trophies. I've gor a bunch of plats ready to pop, so I'm motivated to get this thing done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Radio Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I have three games I plan to platinum in the coming weeks. Bloodborne will take a good bit of time since I have never played through a Souls game before. Assassins Creed Syndicate is basically a big collectathon and Uncharted: Lost Legacy will mostly be doing cleanup while I wrap up my Crushing playthrough. That's three platinums that could get potential points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zanreo Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Huh... I wonder if the "US only" has something to do with the option of physical rewards? That always seems to make it limited regarding what places can access it(I also remember getting really jealous over never getting Club Nintendo here, at least that was available in a bunch of other places)... still, really annoying :c Edited November 5, 2017 by Zanreo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmsleight Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 I love all the people raging at sony about no retroactive rewards. If they didn't know about this, they wouldn't be raging about not having the rewards. Sure it would be great to have $70s plus whatever for gold/silver, but I wasn't getting rewards anyway and now I am. One last trophy for lbp before my 'first' plat. Too bad I didn't know about this before getting several golds and a plat last week. *****Btw, people be warned: I based on how you have to opt into collecting rewards, I guarantee you once you collect the requisite amount, you will need to claim and then reopt in (which will probably take a few days to process) before collecting! I bet anything collected between 10 and resubmitting will be lost like all the trophies you have already collected till now.**** 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatCauthon Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Look at these self-entitled little pricks on here bitching about a rewards program like Sony owes them something. Grow up. Anyway, I’ve been using Sony Rewards for years. I use the credit card for personal and work expenses and pay it off each month. I redeem my points for a $50 PSN card about every three months.

steel6burgh Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 What a joke I can never redeem my normal reward points for anything. they make it such a pain in the butt to redeem them. Its always something trying to cash them in from the website being down to a variety of issues that I've had. I wouldn't waste my time. Its like all reward programs. they give you 1c for every dollar you spend then make it a pain or make it so your point expire if not used by a certain point in time. go interest free everytime. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGirlYouCantBeat Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Guys i have a question,i am from Latin america but my account is from The United States,its because they sell North american gift cards where i live. anyway,my question are: 1.-Can i use a VPN to sign up for the trophy rewards system? could i get banned for it? 2.-I have a friend in north america,should i get her to sign up for me instead of using VPN? Is it safer/better? My theory is that anyone can take advantage of this new trophy rewards system as long as the account is north american,is that correct too? i hope someone has the answers,thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that_dude_cam_ps Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 @aikn-yor yes it works with a vpn but their site does absolutely suck! A lot of times it won’t let you complete transactions for no reason. And you might have to completely empty your cookie cache to get it to unlock you even with vpn. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have to be really easy (or you'd have to be really poor) to make it that much of a "business". Even with 10 half-hour plats, you're looking at earning $2 an hour. Hardly worth the effort, even for a kid. Maybe if you're autopopping over and over, but you'd STILL have to fill out the paperwork, and even for $15-$20 an hour (and that feels like a very conservative estimate), it sounds pretty lame.

Takes about 15 mins to create PSN account, sign up for rewards, hack 10 platinums, sync, and fill out the "paperwork", repeat....so anyone can easily make 40+ dollars an hr...

You wouldn't average 15 minutes a cycle doing this for any extended period of time (and this assumes that Sony somehow has no way of catching up to this before sending over your codes). But hey - go for it! There's nothing like a job that offers payment in non-currency, and can be terminated at any time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also you can easily sale the codes for a discount online. Edited November 6, 2017 by KRATOS_31090 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
