I'm playing a few games at the moment and, although I could live without trophies, the truth is they are a nice feature and they certainly are stimulating.
I mean, when you are enjoying a game you DO want to not only beat it but beat it as best as possible by doing all the cool things that could be done, by achieving records and so on, that is being great at it. Therefore when you beat a game and then check the trophies section to find out you did not even reach 50% that means you'll have to try harder!
The PS3 is my console of choice but I also have an X360 so I do know how achievements work and although I'm not much into them because I only got my 360 or GOW2 and Fable 2 there is something I like of achievements more than Trophies: the progression bar.
By and large I prefer trophies over achievement for how they are implemented, their features etc. but the achievements' progression bar is really a MUST have for this feature.
I mean, I'm playing Flower... how long till I get the 10000 flowers: I do want to get them and get all Flowers trophies but at this point, after beating the game and playing it again I coould have reached any number of bloomed flowers... and the same is for the Helgast kills in KillZone 2 and so on and so fort.
Introducing any sort of progression bar that would hint the players how long till they reach the trophy objective would really be cool and enhance the trophies experience :)!

I totally agree with you ! I don't know if this feature is something that should be implemented by Sony or developer ... Anyway, good suggestion.
