Time to platinum (real time): 4 years, 1 month, 2 weeks

Time to platinum (in game time): Around 40 hours

Platinum rarity (PSNProfiles): 5.57%

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy rating difficulty: 4/10

A very good game with an awful trophy list, hence why it took so long for me to get the platinum. The game itself is very good with the classic feel of Tomb Raider. The multiplayer trophies are just extremely long and boring to do. The online has never been alive anyway, so boosting alone was not a good experience. The good thing is that I had a lot of fun with the single player, even though some trophies had a chance of bugging out, I didn't experienced it myself.

After more than 8 years, I finally got it! As you can see, it's time for backlog time! I don't want to buy any more new games until I finish all the games I bought along the years and this one was on my list. It was basically a level up grind, but it's not for nothing since I really want to do all the DLCs too. Great game!

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy rating difficult: 6/10

Oh my, this one took a while, but the game was so fun that it didn't matter much. In my opinion, this is the best Borderlands game around and the best co-op game. It's just so much fun to play with a buddy and farm stuff over and over again to become stronger. The gameplay is great, the story is always very funny and entertaining and the different characters add to the variety. The DLCs were also all pretty fun and different. All in all, this is just a great game!

Platinum #140: Skylanders Superchargers (PS4)

Time to platinum (in game time): Around 30 hours

Platinum rarity (PSNProfiles): 7.88%

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy rating difficult: 5/10

After more than 4 years, it's finally done! I started this game with my kid and we had a lot of fun together playing this. The Skylanders franchise is very underrated in terms of gameplay and fun, pretty much all of these games are great! Of course, you need a lot of figurines to be able to do a couple of trophies, hence why the rarity of the platinum. Pretty fun game if you can get it on the cheap!

Platinum #139: A Way Out (PS4)

First trophy: 15th Mar 2020 12:24:18 AM

Time to platinum (real time): 1 month, 6 days, 14 hours

Time to platinum (in game time): Around 10 hours

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy rating difficult: 2/10

What a fantastic co-op experience! Sure, the game is a little predictable and the gameplay can be clunky at time, but it's so well crafted in terms of co-op that I can forgive the game. The story was really cool and the twist at the end, we didn't see it coming at all! If you're searching for a short co-op game to play with a non-gamer or with a friend, I would recommend this one in a heartbeat. Do it!

Platinum #138: Aces of the Luftwaffe Squadron (PS4)

First trophy: 25th Nov 2018 9:45:38 PM

Time to platinum (real time): 1 year, 4 months, 3 weeks, 4 days, 6 hours

Time to platinum (in game time): Around 25 hours

Platinum rarity (PSNProfiles): 19.71%

Game rating: 6.5/10

Trophy rating difficult: 6/10

This game is a really cool shoot em' up and I LOVE shoot em' up games. The bosses are really cool and the story is also enjoyable. The art style is also very flashy, even though sometimes it's really hard to see the enemies on the screen. Why the 6.5 rating then? The game is very grindy and it's a shame. Not only in terms of trophy, but you actually need to grind to get past some levels as your ships are just not strong enough. So you need to replay and replay the same levels over and over again and it's a shame because the game is really cool, just very unbalanced.
