Gamers, often competitive creatures, always want to know if they're 'better' than their buddies. Soon, you'll be able to literally see which of your friends ranks #1 on the PlayStation Network with the introduction of Trophy leaderboards.

Emmanuel Orssaud, Portal Manager of eu.playstation.com, has introduced two new PlayStation Network features which will arrive on the European PlayStation website soon: Trophy leaderboards and Trophy comparisons.

The compare feature is similar to the one already integrated into the PlayStation Network. You are able to line up your Trophy collection alongside a friend's, in order to see specifically which Trophies you've acquired that they haven't, and vice verse. The leaderboard, meanwhile, offers a broader view, and lets you see how you rank up against all of your friends at once.

These features are still unfinished, with no set launch date revealed thus far.

    Surely it'd be better to see how you rank in the world.

    And once again SCEA fails on all levels compared to SCEE.

    That's nice and all, but I'd only really want to do this with my actual PS3.

    wait, the leaderboards are only to see your rank against your friends? i thought it would be in general, as in whos the best in the world and your rank.

    Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who could not care less about trophies.

    if you only care about trophies, there's no game out there that would make your life happy lol

    instead of focusing on trophies, focus on enjoying the games

    Ahh nice. Since they wil launch trophy leaderboards, this might as well be a good reason for me to go and buy an hdmi cable for my 360.

    I like trophies, i only go for platnium with games i like though, 1 so far for Dead Space and I played it 3 times to get it and loved every minute of it, if there hadn't been trophies I wouldn't have played it as much. Working on infamous and killzone 2 now....must beat radec on elite (i try every few weeks, annoying but fun)

    I am good to see how I rank with my friends.  The world would be overwhelmed and feel very upset to see me at the top all of the time.  JJ.

    God damn the people that created Terminator: Salvation. They shouldn't be creating games if they're too lazy to create Trophies of any value. Wankers.

    So you'll have to login to see leaderboards?

    Also, will you still have to keep updating the PSN card on there?

     

    If so, its a long ways off from something like mygamercard.net for XBL players.
