The PlayStation 3 exclusive, Heavy Rain will have trophies but it will buck the trend of providing instant notifications when you earn them. Instead, Heavy Rain will inform you of all your trophy worthy accomplishments after the chapter ends.
This will be great for those that don't want to get kicked out of the game's immersive atmosphere. This is also great for ensuring that no text dialogue is obscured by a trophy notification.
Heavy Rain will ship in early 2010 for the PlayStation 3.
Quantic Dream co-CEO Guilaume de Fondaumiere told Kotaku in New York that the game's Trophy alerts will operate on a delay. That gets the team around the problem of having the little Trophy alert message and accompanying chime interrupt scenes of tense crime-scene investigation or a father's quiet struggle to get his son to talk to him after a bad day at school. The game will maintain its mood during the important parts by rewarding the gamer with alerts during transitional scenes.
