Fallout 3 getting Trophy support, says Bethesda

Bethesda’s Vice President of Marketing Pete Hines has confirmed that Trophy support is in the pipeline for the PlayStation 3 version of Fallout 3.

Speaking during a live interview with Eurogamer readers this afternoon, Hines commented, “It’s going to happen, just not sure when. We’ll let folks know when we have something more definitive.”

Hines didn’t elaborate any further on the subject, but it’s good to know that the company is hopping on the Trophy bandwagon after previous comments remained ambiguous as to whether or not they’d be included in the popular RPG.

In the meantime, check out our review of Fallout 3 right here.

    sales are lower than expected on ps3 and without trophies it makes it worst to compete with other game that already have trophies imo this game should have had trophies on day 1

     I don't buy games without Trophy support anymore. I'm also not buying games based on promises  of Trophies being patch in the future. Which means I'd have to play the game twice. I'll just wait and see.

     

    How come The PS3 version of multi-platform titles are usually the worse? =(

    Great game, but I don't understand why people even care about trophies.  I'd much rather have more actual content to the game, or they spend their time fixing the bugs.  If I were Sony, maybe I would ask them to instead of adding trophy support, add a few more creatures to the game.  When I become a multi-billionaire...in my spare time...I'll buy them out and do that ;)

    Yeah I don't really focus on game to replay it just for trophies, I will only replay if I wanna replay for gameplay value not for a trophy. I also don't go out of the way for a trophy, if I get one I get one its cool. Fallout 3 is amazing you should give this a shot the console versions are very similar , I got it for the PC

    the problem is the PS3 got the short end of the stick with this one, comparitavle the PS3 version looks horrible.

    but, thats why i got it on PC. As a bonus, also feeding my Live Gamertag acheivement points lol

     I'll proabably pick this up in Dec since Resistance 2 comes out today :), but I wonder if you'll need to restart the game like in GTAIV.

    I love this game I'm kicking some serious mutated a ss! I dont care that much about trophies and I agree with the I'd rather get other stuff instead people here. Also I dont think the trophies will be retro active, there not for uncharted even though I have so many "medals" I got the trohpy patch and I have zero trophies! Its just another thing for us to complain about b itch b itch b itch. Video games kick a ss!

    Pete Hines needs to learn not to do this crap so late after a game comes out.  This could have been put in the game from the get go.  I wouldn't be surprised if sales are lower for the PS3, they need to put there effort for their games on whatever console it's on, if it's on 3 consoles then they need to show support for all 3.   It's good that it's having trophies but why so late? 

    I think I am going to skip this game.  I know they will make another game in a year or 2 and if those get the support from Bethesda then I will buy it.  @7, they could do all that, putting in trophies for a game is practically childs play but depending on how many trophies it's going to have.  However, Bethesda is horrible at patching their games and showing extra support for their games like fixing bugs and whatever else.  The PC version of Oblivion still has a few major bug issues that should have been fixed a long time ago but they ignore them.  Either way, it's their lack of effort that keeps me away from their games.

    well yeah thanks but how bout you release a patch for the numerous glitches in the game like HOW IT FREEZES EVERYTIME I GET A NOTICE IN THE UPPER LEFTHAND CORNER!!!

    I have it but haven't opened it since I bought it. Taking this back and getting End War, i'll pick it up once it's patched for bugs and has trophy support.

    @17

    this game is awesome and doesnt need trophy support
    and if you're going to pick it up again when its pathced why trade it in for endwar instead of keeping the game

    i am really hating my fallout 3, because it is in spanish and there is no language select. @PSU: can u please ask if there is going to a patch or anything for language select?? please i can´t enjoy my game, its like a fifty/fifty thing. because not just subs are in spanish but voices too, and speech is the most important thing in this game in my opinion

    @19, I'm sorry, but that's pretty darn funny.  I have to ask...does it also have Richie Valens playing La Bamba on the radio ;)

    Kinda put me off playing it now, I'm a good 10 hours in, probably about 3% into the game and now I'm thinking I might just wait till trophies come out till I pick this game up again. For now I've got LBP, Farcry2, Deadspace, and Bioshock to keep me entertained, and Mirrors Edge is only just over a week away.
