@sajoey Sony have a patent to add trophies to games in retrospect by triggering on certain values in memory. So if say the goal was to collect every item, the game would have a mechanism to keep track of the items the user has, and when the list is complete the game monitor triggers the trophy.
I'm rather amused by people not wanting to play games they can't "platinum". Well, that's OCD for you. Either that, or some kind of weird peer pressure.
I'm a fan of the way you work yourself up the grades. You level up so often that you get the car you are looking for eventually. I drove quite a few miles just to get one in particular - and boy was it worth it. The old selection I always lost on the last stretch - with the new car I was winning with ease. The feeling of driving that race with that car was worth all the "work" to level up to that car. Also, starting off with the mini was really helpful because it's a handful to control the later cars. Getting a clean lap with the Ariel Atom is a challenge. The car doesn't like being driven slowly.
.. and the lack of music. I didn't realize the game didn't have in game music turned on because the sound of the engines were enough for me. It's a pleasure to the ears and eyes.
Whenever they sort out the online part, I'm probably through the game. Which is a perfect time to start playing online.

We loved knack and looked forward for knack 2. It is an awesome kids game. Stop the hate.
