I really need to get my backlog under control again, and I'll have absurd amounts of free time the next few months, so it's the perfect time to get through at least most of it. So I am happy to join.

Here's my list for now. I'm sure I'll work on stuff before the start of the event and change things up. I tried to choose games I'm not planning on finishing in the next few weeks though. -

 

Shenmue - 0%

Final Fantasy IX - 0%

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Eyes of Heaven - 0%

Mega Man 11 - 1%

Super Neptunia RPG - 2%

Star Ocean: First Departure R - 3%

Kill la Kill: IF - 4%

Dragon Quest XI - 12%

Soul Calibur VI - 13%

Ys VIII - 5%

Jump Force - 5%

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order - 6%

Tokyo Xanadu eX+ - 10%

BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle - 11%

Persona 5 Strikers - 11%

Dragon Quest XI - 12%

Resident Evil 2 - 12%

Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate - 18%

South Park: The Fracture But Whole - 20%

Fate/Extella The Umbral Star - 21%

I pulled together my starter list, finally. I won't be adding any more to this now, but when we get to the exact mid-point of the challenge - so somewhere in mid July, I'll do a progress check and depending on how many of these i've taken care of in terms of Platinum trophies, I'll plan a few more entries. Currently i'm considering something RGG related, either Yakuza: Like a Dragon or Judgement considering a sequel was recently announced.

 

I feel good about this list so far though, some of the games are pretty substantial in content, so it will definitely keep me occupied over a rainy Irish summer :) 

  1. Cosmic Top Secret - 0%
  2. Outriders - 1%
  3. Subnautica: Below Zero - 0%
  4. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (I might split this into three entries depending on how EA builds the trophy list) 0%
  5. Watch Dogs: Legion - 7%
  6. Nier:Replicant - 4%

I'm signing up again for Summer, the spring one really helped me focus on clearing some backlog! 

  1. Final Fantasy XIII - 0%
  2. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition - 0%
  3. Mass Effect 2: Legendary Edition - 0%
  4. Mass Effect 3: Legendary Edition - 0%
  5. Octodad (Vita) - 0%
  6. Okami - 0%
  7. Soul Sacrifice - 10%
  8. Tropico 5 - 15%

I think that's it - I have a couple of higher completion games I plan to wrap up that aren't eligible, and a couple that I doubt I'll finish off before September (super long stuff). Otherwise, I'll make any changes before the end of the month if needed.

I hope you enjoy Okami, I absolutely loved that game and it is one of my favourite plats on my profile ?

I actually played some of it way back on the Wii, I really enjoyed it but didn't complete it since I didn't have a Wii myself. It's definitely one I'm looking forward to revisiting!

Love this concept thanks for putting together, I have only recently got into trophy hunting and looking at my back log always upsets me so this is perfect. 

 

Some absolutely gems that I never got round to finishing so hopefully quite an exciting list especially with a few sequels coming up.

 

The games I’m choosing for now are 

 

  • Immortals Fenyx Rising - 0% 
  • God of War - 8% 
  • Titanfall 2 - 1%
  • Borderlands Game of the Year Edition - 29% 
  • The last of us remastered - 42%
  • Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor - 25%
  • Resident Evil - 4%
  • Returnal - 8% 
  • Horizon Zero Dawn - 1%
  • Final Fantasy 7 remake - 1%

 

I have plenty of games with over 50% which I’m hoping to polish off as well so a fairly small list! 

 

Happy hunting everyone.

Last year's Summer's challenge was one of the best experiences I ever had in gaming in years! I don't know if it was due the lockdown that many people were playing, or I was plain lucky but after taking a short break to enjoy my games, I think I can give it a shot and change my posts format and try something new! Still thinking the list, but I believe will be a mix of FPS with open-world RPGs to make a spicy, robust and interesting one! So let's see what this year's bring us. :)

Still undecided on my list, too.

 

Also, the challenge starts two weeks from tomorrow! Hope more of you will sign up!

Been a while since I joined, and this should overlap well with Gaming by Numbers.

Theoretically, 4+ more to be added along the way. Getting my three PS4 games that are worse on PS5 crossed off before it fully dies would be good...

 

Assassin's Creed Syndicate
Hitman 2 - Additional Expansions - 43%
Hunted: The Demon's Forge
Okage: Shadow King
The Order: 1886 - 5%

Yeah, I'll toss in on this!  I've got a lot of old Vita games to finish and this is a good push.  A mix of short and long ones should be pretty fun.

 

1. Sir Eatsalot (33%)

2. Uncharted: Golden Abyss (41%)

3. Octodad: Dadliest Catch (23%)

4. Rayman Origins (17%)

5. Asdivine Hearts (10%)

6. Zero Escape: The Nonary Games (8%)

7. Claire (3%)

8. The Wolf Among Us (1%)

9. Child of Light (0%)

 

That seems like a good start!  We'll see what happens when I get through those!

Sorry for the confusion, but I won't be joining this challenge after all. I won't have as much time for games this summer. Plus, I want to spend the time I do have digging deeper into some games I've been neglecting, rather than being in "backlog clearing" mode. If that makes sense.

 

Good luck to everybody! I'll be back for the Fall and Winter challenge.

I'll keep your list up in case you change your mind, though your name is slashed.

Agents of Mayhem 0%

Resident Evil 7 4%

Control 0%

Good chance for me to refocus this Summer - hopefully be able to knock these off the list with some focus!!

 

  • Fall Guys - glutton for punishment I really want to aim for this over the Summer as got it whilst infallible was possible via custom games, it’s such a silly game. (17%)
  • Dark Souls 2 - got Souls trilogy for birthday earlier this year and already played 1 (& platted recently) & 2, so basically just going direct for the platinum on this one. (10%)
  • Persona 5 - I have been playing this for who knows how long by now. Got P5R but won’t play until I get this one completed!! (27%)
  • Nier Automata (8%)
  • Resident Evil HD - always something better to consider so going to try and crack it this Summer. (6%)
  • Borderlands GOTY. (12%)
