No it will not have a trophy option. Welcome to the world of Sh!toutofluck!

Check out question 8

8. Does the PlayStation 3 version have any kind of achievements or accomplishments?
Outside of the standard stat tracking, which tallies up your kills, deaths, arrests, distance traveled, passed missions, stunt jumps, and other extracurricular activities, there are no Xbox Live Achievements-like features for the PS3.

Check Link.
Sony is enforcing HOME integration with all their games so the scenario of a GTAIV HOME space is a very very likely scenario.
Then again, why am I proving anything to you? You're an unimportant entity.

I don't know if it will affect the PS3 version. There is a stat for "Times Cheated" If it's anything like previous GTA's, it might just block you from hitting 100%

There's only one cheat that I've read actually blocks an achievement and that's "walked free" (lose 4 stars I think) if you use the lose stars cheat it supposedly blocks the achievement.

I haven't cheated yet and won't till I hit 100% but if you have the PS3 version you might wanna wait for any possible horror stories of people getting corrupt saves or not being able to get everything if you are a completionist.

I used cheat codes for San Andreas and I couldn't complete the game. I got stuck on one mission. The one that I had to prevent the dude from jumping off the side of a building.

But GT review said that this is a easier game than the previous GTA games so there is no need for cheat codes.
