    Ok.. I'm sure there's been a topic about this, but I havent seen any that really address my question. Some time ago my account was banned for an inapropriate name. They changed my account name, and I have all my purchases and what not. But trophies I received before did not sync. I figured I would redo them, but I still have those trophies on the account saved locally on my playstation. I tried creating a new Username on my playstation that I could log in to my PSN account on and redo the trophies in question there, but it said my account was already assigned to a user on this system. So... My question is this... If I delete the saved data for a game on my system, will it clear that trophy data so I can redo them?? Any thought?

    Yup, if you delete your save data you can earn trophies again.

    Cool. Thanks! I kinda figured that'd work, but thought I better ask before deleting saved data and setting myself back. 700 trophies I'll have to redo thanks to PSN.

    Sounds like it's more thanks to you for making your PSN name something dumb.

    Ha! :-P I guess you have a point there. At least now I have an excuse to spend another hundred hours playing skyrim.

    Sounds more like your own fault.
