Since Giant Bomb added the ability to link your Xbox Live GamerTag to your Giant Bomb account to display your achievements as well as WoW accounts on your profile they should now add the PSN Trophies too. No site ever offers the ability to link a PSN ID but everybody and their brothers site lets you link a XBL Gamertag.
Just wanted to see if anyone else would like to see it so maybe they'll add it if enough people want it.
PlayStation Trophies
Concept »
Trophies are an incentive-based system for the completion of various objective in PS3, Vita, and PS4 titles.
Link PSN Trophies to your GB account?
Maybe Sony will announce a major improvement to their online API (or lack thereof) at E3 (fingers crossed). I'd love to see something similar to gamercards that would update automatically, which would of course allow Giant Bomb to add the linking functionality.

Was wrong he said nothing about a public release of the API but he did say that this is just phase one and more additions are coming
Yeah I'm gona get it, Maybe next week. Got Cross edge coming tomorrow and that is an hour intensive RPG, But my friend works at GS so during His shift I am gona come down and chat (screw with the store)and buy some games.
Another missing PSN feature. I don't know if it's the lack of income from their internet service or what. But hey, they have chatrooms... so yeah...

Also, Playfire.com has something similar.

" Yeah I guess someday we'll see it then, hey Sony is going for the 10 year lifespan they can't just drop everything on us the first 2-3 years that would be asinine. "
Kidding right? They should have already had so many of these features already taken care of.
The implementation of trophies into the website would also require GiantBomb to add a new cathegory "trophies" in addition to "achievements" for every multiplatform game. Otherwise it would mess up some of your data if you happen to own both versions of a game.

"@LocoRocker said:They have plans to implement Steam achievements soon, some of which will clash with Xbox achievements, so I'm assuming they have a solution to this problem in the works. Perhaps separating different platforms achievements into tabs. I dunno what they're planning, but they'll come up with a solution.

"Compare Trophies" and the "Trophy Leaderboard" are coming-out mid-July.
Hopefully, these new features will give-out enough data to do exactly what GB does with X360/WoW/Steam Achievements.
EDIT: Errr, never mind guys. I did some more research and on the European PlayStation Blog I found the full article, with Dev Comments and everything:

Q: "Are there any plans to make the profile publicly accessible? E.g. clicking on the PSN trophy badge will take you to your profile, not just a register page…"
A: "Yes this is in our plans for later I’d love to hear from all of you on what you’d like to see in your public profile."
Q: "Hi what i really would like is when you click someones portable ID you get a list of their trophies, not the PS registration page… That would be great"
A: "In the Future when we release the Public Profile, we will definitely link the Portable IDs to the Profile pages."
There are many others requesting that the API be made publicly available through-out the comments.
I guess the only way that this new feature would work is if Giant Bomb made like 999,999+ PSN Accounts and accepted Friend Requests from all us Users, which would be ridiculous (and probably against Sony's EULA).
