Playstation 3 Trophy Cards
By the way, this is not a battle about trophies and believe me I have heard a lot of for and against arguments about them. This is about trophy cards for those who want them, if you don't believe in them - fine, that is your choice and you don't have to read any further.
PS3TROPHIES.CO.UK
We will start off with the site that I think is best for what is now known as 'Trophy Whores' and that is PS3TROPHIES.CO.UK. This site was made by trophy collectors for trophy collectors, the only problem is that you have to manually insert all your trophy information (it is easy to do but time consuming). It is, in my opinion, the best site for Playstation 3 trophy collectors. It comes with its own forum which has sub-sections for every trophy game their is including sections for games that are not out yet but they have the trophy information for them. The site gives you up to date information on any newly announced trophy game.If you need help in your trophy hunting, each and every trophy has its own tip section where users can leave tips on how to get that particular trophy and most of the games have got user created trophy guides for all the trophies. The site is also particularly good if you would like some help trophy boosting.
PS3TROPHIES.CO.UK also has the best leaderboard I have seen yet. It comes with its own user based anti-cheat system - ie if you suspect and can prove someone has inserted trophies they don't have you can have them banned from the system. Check it out you won't be disappointed, the only main downfall is that it is so slow to enter your trophy information, but when its done its done and if you keep up to it adding trophies whenever you get them you won't really mind the slowness anymore.
PLAYFIRE
On Playfire you can create separate gamer card for both the Playstation 3 and the XBox360 so it is more of an all rounder type site. All you have to do is give Playfire your PSN username and it will automatically create your card for you and keep it updated. This site is more popular than the ps3trophies site, mainly because it isn't exclusive to the Playstation 3 and probably partly because of its social networking capabilities. If you want to check out what kind of social network page you get you can always check out my profile.
If you like the notion of leaderboards then Playfire is among the best and since they updated to the automatic updating card all the cheaters have thankfully disappeard, even though the odd glitch card may show up now and again.
PS3TROPHIES.CO.UK vs PLAYFIRE
As promised in the introduction it is now your turn to enter you two pennies worth. Which do you think is the best and why.
Update:
Since this article was created Playfire has switched over onto the automatic trophy card system which makes it the best trophy card system with a leaderboard at the moment. When ps3trophies changes over to this system they will be neck and neck again with each having their own unique advantages over the other.
Which is the best PS3TROPHIES.CO.UK or PLAYFIRE?
Fetching blurbs now... please stand byPS3TROPHIES.CO.UK

Playfire is dropping behind, if you look at the difference between my trophy cards you will see. Playfire just doesn't have some of the latest games trophy lists for people who add their trophies manually and I can't b bothered letting them use the details from the official playstation trophy card as that doesn't self update (you have to tell it to update).
So Playfire get ur finger out and fix ur site.

Ps3 trophies. Playfire takes a while for refreshing, and if you earned new trophies it can take a few good hours (or days) to be written in the card.

Playfire's have a massive file size. I stick to the less weighty PS3Trophies ones

Arizona-Snow says:
PS3Trophies is definitely the best. Playfire may be quicker to add loads of trophies at once, but if you are like me and add your trophies everyday then Playfire becomes the slower of the 2.
Also PS3trophies updates your trophy card instantly whilst Playfire can take a day before it is updated.

TROPHY GAME RECOMMENDATION
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
Amazon Price: $49.99 (as of 11/23/2009)![]()
Follow-up game to 2007's critically acclaimed Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, the PlayStation 3 exclusive Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is a continuation of the adventures of Nathan Drake, a fortune-hunter with a shady reputation and an even shadier past. Chock full of all the action, adventure, cinematic story elements and beautiful graphics that set the first game apart, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves adds deep online multiplayer options, including co-op and competitive campaigns, and a whole new supporting cast of characters, making it yet another must-have title for the PlayStation 3 platform.

BATTLETRACKER
Battletracker is the latest of the trophy card sites and this one is the best one yet for trophy cards (its leaderboard isn't as competitive as PS3Trophies yet). The Battletracker trophy card updates itself once a day directly from your PS3 trophy information. All you have to do is add 'Battletracker' to your PSN friends and then go to the site and copy the code for your trophy card and that is it, you can then forget you have it as no updating or adding trophy information is necessary.
Battletracker has now updated it's service so that the trophy card is totally automatic. Sync you trophies on your PS3 and the Battletracker card will auto-update, it is as easy as that.
OTHER GAMERCARDS
Alternatively if you would like a gamercard to show your Resistance 2 or Killzone 2 online competitive stats get yourself a gamercard as shown below. Please note I suck at online competitive so my gamercards are rubbish.
