The forthcoming title, LittleBigPlanet is just one of the reported future titles that will support Trophies. As explained in part 2 of the walkthrough video, game developers can patch current games to make use of the Trophy system.
The titles that are due a game update to support Trophies are: Super Stardust HD, PAIN and Warhawk.

Sony seem to be making these changes now before the serious issue of HOME for PS3 begins to take shape, with general beta testing taking place later this year. Let’s hope the 2.40 Firmware makes a smooth transition on Wednesday.
