SingStar Trophies unlock PlayStation Home rewards

For the first time ever, PlayStation Trophies earned in a game will equate to actual items -- well, actual fake items, that is.

Let's rephrase: the new SingStar Trophies will earn you rewards in PlayStation Home, Sony's 3D social application. The Trophies that will net you Home goodies are:

- Super Singer Bronze (score over 9000 on 5 different songs on easy)
- Window Shopper (visit the SingStore)
- Chatterboxes (post a single comment on another player's profile page)
- It’s Good To Share (upload a piece of media of any type to SingStar Online)

We're not quite sure what the rewards are, so if you earn one be sure to let everyone know in the comment section below.

UPDATE: Alas, the readers seem to know more about this than us. Apparently this is not a first, as RE5 and SFIV already offer this functionality in a similar fashion. Still, it's a cool and appreciated feature nonetheless.

    Nice, hopefully more games will do this. Doesn't Disgaea 3 also give Home trophies with its latest patch?

    They are for SIngstar in general; there won't be seperate trophy sets for each BD game.

    The trophy patch is due to launch with Singstar Pop which is out towards the end of April.

     Well, its not the first game to do so. Resident Evil 5 and Street Figher 4 unlocks home 'goodies'

    Nope upon launching Home after playing RE5 you get a Chris Redfield figurine for your Home Space. I don't kow of anything else as I rarely use Home and haven't been on since beating RE5

     Yeh you can get several character figures on Resi5, one for each difficulty you complete it on. Street Figher 4 gives a few T-shirts after certain trophies... not sure what ones, i think the online ones.

    Not only SFIV and RE5, but there are many other games in Japan. I can assure you that none of the mentioned games were the first to implement this feature ;)

    Cool! Now every game should support this. This will generate steam in Home.

     

    This would go well with the Trophy room...
