Sources reveal, confirm alleged PS3 trophy screen

A purported screenshot of the upcoming PS3 Trophy system surfaced on the internet on Monday, looking somewhat suspicious and legitimate at the same time.

Could this be the PS3 trophy screen?

Could this be the PS3 trophy screen?

The screen (shown) was obtained by PS3 Fanboy, who say they received it via email from their reader tip line. A second tipster, who claims to be a PS3 developer, affirmed the image.

Says PS3 Fanboy: "Things that make this image seem legit include a lack of blur, not to mention that this is clearly photographed from a monitor. We've checked and that Clank avatar is a real PS3 avatar. Not exactly conclusive evidence, but enough to keep us speculating, for now."

Another piece of evidence that may confirm the authenticity of the screen is timing. Last week, Sony announced that it would soon launch PS3 Trophies (an Xbox Live Achievement-like system) with system update 2.40.

Currently, the PS3 is on update version 2.36.
