Hot topic this morning: PlayStation Mobile has launched today across various Android devices and the PlayStation Vita. But on the Vita there’s something missing: trophies, and ‘proper’ PlayStation Network-based leaderboards.
Sure, some games manage to incorporate their own trophy systems (like Futurlab’s Fuel and Albino’s Underline) but they’re not tied to your own PSN trophy count. Same with leaderboards – the games that have them don’t pick up your PSN ID.
If you’re really into your trophies and achievements, does this affect your buying choices? Will you only pick up the cheaper games, or will you avoid them altogether?
Or are you really not bothered about trophies and PSN leaderboards, and are happy to play some great new PS Vita games at super-cheap prices?
Let’s discuss!

Lack of trophies hasn’t stopped me enjoying some really good minis – and the Orange Box. I can live without trophies but at the same time i would like my ‘gamercard’ to reflect all of the games i play and for that reason alone i’m glad that trophies are on the way for PSM.

I’m mostly bothered with Sony’s inability to launch their services worldwide. In their world it seems that Europe only consists of 5 countries…
