Sony register new patent for awarding trophies via emulated games News
A computer-implemented method assigns one or more trophies to a user. A game is emulated in response to a request from a client device. A trophy trigger is detected during emulation of the game by comparing a memory value of the emulated game to a predetermined value and assigning the one or...

Sony Patents Awarding Trophies via Emulation for Older Games
Sony has filed a new patent where PlayStation Trophies will be awarded for older games running on emulation software.

If it's based on their patent no game code is touched. It's just a layer over the emulation that monitors memory values and if a memory value changes it awards a trophy. So would be way less work and not just determining what points to map to the memory.

That's the same patent they used for all the PS2 to PS4 games back in 2016. That patent isn't new at all
Wow they did it. I can't wait to play Syphon Filter and likely more titles have trophies, let's go!
Yeah the original patent goes all they way back to 2013 if I remember correctly.
It's funny, I own both The Evil Within 1 and 2, and have yet to play either lol. I swear I'll get to it one day!
But yeah, I really appreciate that Ghostwire seems to just be doing what it's doing, and not trying to follow any particular trends or expectations.
I will always have a soft spot for games that harken back to that more "old school" kind of game design, but marrying it with modern tech and production pipelines (like Kena, or Biomutant). They don't have to look, play, or compete with the "big dogs," but kind of exist in their own lane, with a passionate team who really love the world they have created.
Same. I seriously hope it's not mandated.
I know a lot of people love Trophies, but for me, personally, I don't give a shit about them, and if mandated trophies mean a smaller roll out of Classic games, I'll yeet trophies into the sun.
I just want to be able to revisit a large library of some of my favorite games.
Fortunately, it seems like that patent Sony filed a while back may make any concerns about adding trophies to retro games moot. Fingers crossed that trophies aren't mandated, and that the classics library is significantly larger as a result!
Lol! It really does fall into that trap, and I was like, "God damn it!" when I started playing it the other day. lol
I've been using the zoom in function quite a bit in that one, sadly. :(
Iirc, the patent is very old but wasn't used for those PS2 games because it made for less interesting trophies. There was an interview with the emulator devs a while back that I can't find anymore that I thought went into that.
For all those who didn't like the story in HFW as much as HD I have to say I disagree. While HZD had the better mystery and lore in discovering what happened to the world previously, for me the HFW was so much better once the second half of the game just basically goes full on Sci-Fi. I absolutely loved it for that, and the only thing that disappointed me at the very end was when you learn what the ultimate threat is that will be part of game 3. However, there is a part of me that believes that won't actually be the threat, since what happens in HFW you are led to believe in HZD isn't what will happen and ended up being essentially a red herring.
I think the fact that they're spotlighting the trophies for a specific game might mean they aren't mandated, otherwise I think it would have been mentioned in the blog post instead.
Id not read much into it. For all we know its because its getting delisted soon in favour of the Origins collection.
I am really excited for next month across the board. I keep saying it, but I really think this is going to be the largest amount of next gen only gameplay that we will get to see yet!
He says this about every even he produces lol. I'll get hype when I see it.
New PS+ tiers launching in less than a month
PSVR2 still aiming for 2022
GoW Ragnarok visibly on track for 2022
Possible TLOU remake and Factions by the end of the year
Forspoken by end of year
FFXVI moving along well...
Surely we should soon get some kind of event right?
And by soon I mean before September.

Huh, DQX Offline being there must mean the JP date is pretty close, or at least by Sept since Soul Hackers 2 is there.
If god of war and TLoU remake are hitting this year then you can't but appreciate how far the PS studios have come in terms of their output. Even with pandemic, the initial years are looking way better than that of PS4. Can't wait to see the future lineup of these studios.
I agree 100%. Horizon ZD was cute but everything about Forbidden West amplified the world and the story for me times ten. It's rare that I want to find every single thing in a game and forbidden west is truly about to be the first game I platinum.
Same same. If they ever add Legend of Dragoon or Breath of Fire with trophies? Laaaaawwwd
Both were mediocre shows. E3 2016 was the last PlayStation showing that blew me away.
maaaaaaaaaaan~
I don't understand why they went away from this format.
2015 and 2016 were such a damn good 1-2 punch.
By the time Sony has their next quarterly report the new PS+ will have launched in all regions. Sony always gives us PS+ total subscription numbers but how do you think they'll handle it with the new PS+? Total numbers only as usual, or will we get a breakdown of each tier?
I expect total numbers although I dont expect much growth, I think Sony has hit a ceiling in terms of subscriptions of around 50% of the MAU give or take a few million users/subscribers.
They still working on a MP game right?
