We've reported recently that the implementation of the PS3 Firmware 2.40 update will herald the coming of the PlayStation 3 Trophy feature. Actual screenshots of Trophies haven't been revealed yet, but if the picture on the right  is legit, then we probably now have an idea on what it should look like.

Gaming site PS3 Fanboy received the above image from a certain tipster known as "The Patriots." PS3 Fanboy checked the picture if there are any signs of being modified or "Photoshopped," and they were able to conclude that the picture may indeed be the real thing - it was proven that the image was photographed from a monitor, and that the avatar used is an actual Ratchet and Clank avatar.

 

To make things even more interesting, another tipster who claimed to be a game developer backed up The Patriot's tips as the real thing, and even provided another screenshot of a gamer card page of sorts that included a Trophy section. As for the in-game XMB feature, the second tipster claimed that the in-game XMB will let gamers compare trophies, among other things.

Of course, all of these things are not confirmed (and probably won't be until Firmware 2.40 sees the light of day), so take this with a grain of salt. Stay tuned for more updates.
