So I got my first PS3 "trophy" this morning in Pixeljunk Eden and I've played a bit with the Playstation network id. It's still not a good equivalent to Xbox Live and Gamerscore. First off you apparently can't see trophies from the web or anywhere but the PS3 itself. Second off, this silly PSN network ID badge I added to my site doesn't display anything other than an avatar icon and a phrase I set on the PS3. Worse, it doesn't even update when those change unless I got to a web page and click an "update" button. Lastly, trophies without Home is just a text string. Whoopee! No graphic, no score, just a little picture of a bronze trophy and the trophy description.

It's hard to imagine this catching on. Seems like if they were going to rip off Xbox (while Xbox was busy ripping off Nintendo), they should have been at least able to rip off the cool bits ....
