Trophy Question.

[CDink]

What exactly are they linked too? They appear under game on the ps3, but clearly there linked to the PSN? If I'm not signed in can I not earn trophies? I was just wondering about that.

It's linked to the save file for the game, which is linked to your PSN account. So if you play offline, you'd earn trophies that are linked to whatever save account you're playing on, which ties it to your PSN once you sign in and the server re-syncs. Obviously you can't earn online trophies while playing offline.

That's a good explanation for why there's only one PSN account to each PS3 user?

Yeah more or less. PSN accounts are tied to the local PS3 user. And save files are tied to the PS3 user, not the PSN account.

How does your level affect your PSN account. I'm a level 5 and I could really care less if some people are a higher level than me.
