Looks like the prayers of the die hard Metal Gear Solid 4 fans have been answered, as new box art (picked up by PlayStation Lifestyle) features that word that we’ve always wanted to see: Trophies. Yep, alongside ‘Multiplayer’ and ‘Voice Chat’ is ‘Trophies’, seemingly confirming that the updated, cheaper version will support everyone’s favourite silverware upon release.
The box art that features the word is the US version, mind, the European ‘Greatest Hits’ re-issue doesn’t sport the same text although it’s been out for over a year and the box-art for our version hasn’t been refresh since. We’re assuming, then, that this is a brand new re-print of the disk, and thus features a few tweaks. Let’s hope that the Trophies appear as a patch for existing owners, too.
Update: we’ve just been told that the word on the box is a misprint. We’re chasing this one up.

He did. Im sure an interview a few months ago came out and he basically said “we aren’t ever going to work on a trophy patch for MGS4, if someone else wants to, then it may happen”.
Not diffinitive, but not far from saying a plain and simple NO

How can you miss print something like that, what should it have been?

Its the general box for “greatest hit” games. It’s not so much a misprint but more using the wrong box.

Makes sense!

Off topic a bit but when did the PS3 start posting trophies to Facebook without my hitting Trophy Sync? They pop up by themeselves now.

I didn’t know it did! I might have to test this tonight by obtaining a couple of trophies & not synching & seeing what happens….
There hasn’t been some kind of ninja update which has added auto synching has there?!?!? :o

It happens when you play a game that you’ve got trophies in but not synced yet. I don’t think it’s a proper sync either as it happened to me and then when I synced they appeared on my FB feed again.
