Ever since the trophy system was introduced in July of 2008, fans of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots on the Playstation 3 have been asking Konami and Kojima Productions to patch trophies into the game. However, both have remained silent on the issue until now.
In the latest Kojima Productions podcast, Sean Eyestone issued the following statement:
Just to address one issue that we’ve been getting a lot of comments about. And this is, of course, about trophies.
I just wanna tell everybody out there right now that your voices are being heard and that we’re not ignoring you. We hear everything that you are saying. It’s just that we can’t say anything just yet.
But as soon as we have something to say, we will announce it. So, if we can just ask everyone to just be patient, we will give you an answer. But right now we can’t say anything. So we just ask for everyone’s understanding with that and just ask for everybody to remain patient and we’ll let you know.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots was released exclusively for the Playstation 3 on June 12, 2008. Trophies support didn’t become a requirement until 2009. Still, many developers decided to patch it in their games, which pre-dated the feature, as a courtesy move to their fan base. With Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots being one of the best-selling games on the Playstation 3, Kojima Productions should reward those who bought their game.
