UMPiCK´s stash of trophy awesomeness

[UMPiCK24]

WELCOME

to my lovely collection of platinums

 

Hey so my name is UMPiCK and I have been trophy hunting since the beginning of 2013. I used to not care about trophies at all, but later it became a additional challenge for the games which I quite enjoyed. Decided to do this so I have a nice overview of all of my trophies and plus i got nothing to do today.

 I am from Czech republic so my English isn´t perfect. Please forgive me for any mistakes

 

If you have any advice regarding platinums i should get and what to do next feel free to post a reply

 

#1. inFamous 2

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy Difficulty: 5/10

My first platinum. I got this when I was sick for 2 weeks and I really didn´t have anything to do. I just looked at the trophy list a was like:"This is easy. I feel bad for not having a single plat", and so I made it little challenge for me to do while being sick. Collecting all the shards was a terrible pain in the ass and I kind of a cheted it. I was missing just a few that i just really couldn´t find so I gave up and used a user generated content guide that will get them for you. I still feel kind of a bad for this one.

 

#2. The Walking Dead

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 1/10

This one you get just for completing all 5 episodes, there are no missable trophies. I really loved walking dead and can´t wait for the season 2 to come out. There´s not really much to say about this one.

 

#3. Trine 2

Game rating: 8,5/10

Trophy Difficulty: 2/10

Really easy platinum you need to get just 12 trophies for it, easily obtainable in 2 hours. I really enjoyed playing this with my pals, never really played it much on my own.

 

#4. Fallout 3

Game rating: 10/10

Trophy Difficulty: 7/10

Probably my most favourite game of all time and I am really proud on this platinum. I have over 350 hours spent on this game and I just love it. The atmosphere of Capital Wasteland is just so awesome and that feeling when you first come to the Mall area, underpowered a getting swarmed by Supermutants, it´s just one of my most memorable memories from gaming.

 

#5. Saints Row: The Third

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy Difficulty: 4/10

Pretty awesome game. IMO Saints Row was always better then GTA (gta 5 and frist Saints Row are exceptions) even though it started out as a clone. The platinum was kind of a hard for me, because i didn´t get the trophies in order and had to then farm out some of those taunt gang members trophies. Problem is that after you own all the neighborhoods in steel port, the stop spawning, so I had to use one glitch. Once i got the platinum I never touched the game again, even though it´s still fun, there isn´t anything to do anymore really.

 

#6. God of War: Ascension

Game rating: 6,5/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

Probably one of my least favourite GoW games mostly because the story wasn´t as awesome, quite simply because killing siren (or whatever those were) as main bosses isn´t jsut as interesting as killing the God of all Gods (yep you guessed it, GoW3 was my favourite). The plat is easier then most of others GoW games. Only hard port was beating the Trials of Archimedes where you ahve a long set of arenas with no health chests and checkpoints. I never got into the multiplayer mode, mostly because everyone was owning me.

 

#7. Spec Ops: The Line

Game rating: 10/10

Trophy Difficulty: 4/10

My most favourite action shooters of all time. It has a genius story once you pay attention to it (things like screen transmission etc.), This game deliveres something that most other shooters fail at. Great story with character development. I don´t even have to mention the beautiful and sometimes quite disguisting scenarios. Other than beating the game on FUBAR difficulty (which isn´t as hard as people say) the trophies are easy and enjoyable to get. If you haven´t played this game just buy it. It pretty cheap in stores and you won´t regret and you really should play through it more than once

 

#8. Mafia II

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 4/10

This game was everything i hoped it to be and at the time, it was one of my most anticipated games ever. I mean the first Mafia was a brilliant game made in 2002 and we used to play it all the time, mostly for it´s awesome storytelling and the awesome czech dub. The second installment brought honor to the series (odd way of saying this i know) and did everything i hope it would. Feel of the game was still the same, story was there and awesome characters with story twists stayed as well. The end was really strong and sad. Both of Mafia games would rank high up on my list.

 

#9. Hitman: Absolution

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

This was a pain in the ass for a few reasons. Reason number one is that I found it pretty hard to complete the game on proffesional difficulty. In this mode you really have to be sneaky otherwise you are going to get your ass kicked. But my second reason is much worse. When I pretty much completed the game on hard, the power in my house went down and I lost all my saves > . That was so annoying that I gave up on this game for a long time. Those online ones weren´t fun but still pretty easy and doable.

 

 #10. God of War III

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

The Third God of War is so fuckin´ awesome. I mean all those boss fights were so cool. Just the feeling of killing all the main Gods of Antic Greece. Definitely the best GoW game out there. The only problem with the platinum was the trophy aMAZEd, which is beat the Labyrinth without dying. That took me a few tries but otherwise it´s a really easy platinum to get.

 

 #11. Uncharted 2: Among the Thieves

Game rating: 10/10

Trophy Difficulty: 5/10

Loved everything about this game :3 There really isn´t anything on my ming to dislike about it. Perfect game, pretty easy trophies. Some parts of the Crushing mode were a bit hard, mostly when those yeti-ish things were there. One of my most favourite games on ps3 and I think it was much better then Uncharted 3

 

#12. Jak and Dexter: The Precursor Legacy

Game rating: 6/10

Trophy Difficulty: 3/10

Started playing this game just because I have great memories from when I used to play it when I was younger. At first I played just for fun and reminescent feel when I noticed it has some really easy trophies so I got the plat pretty fast after that. Getting all of the precursor orbs and other collectibles was pretty easy but it seems like in Jak II and III it´ll be a much bigger problem. But I anyway hope to get those as well some day.

 

#13. Far Cry 3

Game rating: 8,5/10

Trophy Difficulty: 5/10

Even though Far Cry 2 was a huge disappointment they´ve really changed the game and made an awesome sequal with improved story, a huge open world to explore and destroy. Some of the psychadelic parts ofe the game were really cool just like all the quicktime bossfights. This has to be on my FPS top list.

 

 

#14. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

Fuck yeah! Go Skyrim! Awesome game from my favourite studio, and with more then 700 hours on both ps3 and my pc I really played every quest and seen every part of Skyrim there is to see. Awesome game even though it´s a bit glitchy sometimes but I am used to it from Fallout anyway

 

#15. Uncharted 3: Drake´s Deception

Game rating: 9,5/10

Trophy Difficulty: 5/10

Just like with the previous game this game has got almost no mistakes. It´s probably one of the most beautiful scenerious on ps3. My favourite was when you ride the horses through a canyon, chasing the caravan ahead of you. That is just one of my strongest later gaming memories.

 

#16. Fallout New Vegas

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 8/10

Still can´t decide which game did I like more if this one or Fallout 3. Fallout New Vegas got everything good from 3 but lost the spooky atmosphere of Capital Wasteland. But Obsidian added some brilliant elements like enhanced weapons crafting system, reputations, more endings and factions, iron sights and much more. I am just hoping that Fallout 4 will be like New Vegas with the awesome atmosphere of 3. The trophies for this one are much harder seeing as you got the deal damage with specific weapon type and crafting. Also you have to beat the hardcore mode, which i think was a pretty cool addition to the regular game and made it feel a bit more survival-ish. You have to play through it 4 times to get all the trophies for faction endings and because I already did that on pc it was really annoying getting them all again, but it was a fantastic game, and I don´t really understand why doesn´t it get better reviews

 

#17. Killzone 3

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

This was a pretty good game with really easy trophies. The Elite difficulty wasn´t that hard and only problem were the vehicle parts and then the completionist achievment, which requires you to destroy everything on the MAWLR. That takes a few tries but I guess it can´t be that hard with a guide.

 

#18. Sleeping Dogs

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy Difficulty: 5/10

This so called "GTA clone" was actually pretty good. With the awesome fight style similiar to Batman and your regular story you get a solid game. The only problems with the trophies I´ve had was getting the 100% completion, because you need to buy all the clothing, cars and of course complete all the random events. Another annoying thing was winning 1 million by gambling. So I just have to use the mothod to save after every bet and sit there for an hour.

 

#19. Remember Me

Game rating: 8,5/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

I think that it´s a really underrated game. The story may be a bit weak but the voice actress does a good job at portraiting Nilin (at least in the French version). Neo-Paris looked really cool and the notes about the town that you could collect were pretty interesting. But still the Neo-Paris Setting had so much potential and would be much better as a open world game. It´s a waste having a beautiful world without a ability to explore it...  You can seriously expliot the Combo Lab system and once you make your 3 hit combo all chained healing, it is really hard to take you down. This makes the game soo easy

 

#20. & #22. Sound Shapes

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 9/10

According to the rareness percentage this should be really easy but man death mode was so dificult. I was stuck on some of those levels for so long that i almost pulled my hair out. But Sound Shapes is overall a pretty awesome game, especially when high

I got this game again on PS4 using the Cloud sync. I feel a bit bad about it. It really just seems like cheating...

 

#21. Guacamelee!

Game rating: 8/10

Trophy Difficulty: 6/10

This awesome new 2D beat-em up game had me hooked from begining to the end, only getting stuck on some of the bosses that seemed really unbalanced (Jaguar was the worst) Thank god that you can use a cheat to play in Hard mode right from the begining, not having to play through it two times. Trophies were pretty easy except for those collect all chests trophies (those were sometimes hard and boring) and collecting orbs. I am talking about those two terrible platforming challenges which took be at least a hour each. I am glad that I am done with it already.

 

#23. Resogun

Game rating: 9/10

Trophy Difficulty: 3/10

Oh man I just love this game! I spend so much time playing Space Impact (???) on my old nokia. That's the awesome game on the same premise. You got a ship, you have to destroy some aliens and in the end you have a boss. This is the same thing only it isn't 8-bit anymore but is glamorous eye-candy made of voxels powered by the PS4. Only reason why I didn't give it a full score is because it has only 5 levels. Overall the platinum was pretty easy. Only problem was the 1CC trophy where you have to complete Arcade mode on experienced difficulty without losing all of your lives but that becomes pretty easy once you find a good partner for co-op.

 

#24. Bioshock Infinite

Game rating: 10/10

Difficulty rating: 4/10

One of my favourite games, but it feels so much different then the other Bioshock games. The biggest downfall of this one is probably the combat. It's not bad, using the combinations of Vigors is actually quite fun, but I felt like there was just too much of it. The "chemistry" between Elizabeth and Booker DeWitt was definitely the best about it. As for the trophies it's all pretty easy. They're mostly

#25. Metro Last Light

Game rating: 9/10

Difficulty rating: 7/10

This game is set in the rich and well-written world of metro, inspired by the books of Dmitry Glukhovsky (read those. they're brilliant). It is a great impovement on the first game and there isn't many things that were wrong with it. Maybe just that the AI was pretty dumb. that can be pretty annoying when a large portion of the game is based on stealth. There is one trophy that's one of the most annoying one I've seen in a long time-finishing the game without killing a human. As I mentioned the AI is so stupid that they just run into fires and that aborts the trophy. If there woudn't be this one, the plat would be so much easier.

#26. Grid 2

Game rating: 6/10

Difficulty rating: 5/10

I am not huge about racing games and this wasn't anything special. It's not bad, but I feel like the first one was a bit better and they really steered from a racing sim and it became more of an arcade game. The online trophies were annoying but nothing too hard.

#27. inFamous: Second Son

 

sorry I will edit these later I just really don't have time right now

 

Completed PSN games

  Thomas Was Alone - Pretty awesome Indie game, love the developer and playing with his commentary is much better 8/10

  Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon - As cool as the regular game plus ROBOT SHARKS!!!! 10/10

 Contrast - I enjoyed the game even though it was pretty bad. I feel like they rushed the game just so they could release it on the launch day. There was nothing "next-gen" about this, even the graphics were outdated. 3/10

 Flower - This game is just so beautifull and relaxing. I can just fly through the sunny fields tripping for hours. (Sorry for the image I am way to lazy to edit it ) 9/10

 

 Doki-Doki Universe - It's a pretty meh. But there is a enjoyable part to this game and those are the quizes. You get ask a bunch of random questions and in the end you get a evalution and I have to say, it's pretty accurate! 6/10

 

 

As you probably understood I don´t really play psn games but whetevs.

 

Hope you like my collection I will try expanding soon!

Thanks for checking it out

Anyone who gets skyrim, fallout new vegas and fallout 3 is a obviously a man with good taste; I had F3 and FNV on my old account, getting NV next, then I'll have all 3  I'll be in the good taste club soon.

 

Fallout 3 is the greatest game of all time.. my opinion... my opinion is based on fact though soooo 

[Redgrave]

Great list. I hope to at least add Fallout 3 to mine sometime

[UMPiCK24]

I see you just got it a while ago! Congrats pal

[Kill3rofpoptarts]

I'm about to start my list with skyrim

[UMPiCK24]

I'm about to start my list with skyrim

Congrats! I love the Elder Scrolls but I am not sure about the next one, ESO, it's just seems like another shitty mmo to me. Only thing cool about is you can explore regions of Tamriel like Elsweye etc.

Thanks. Yea what I'm looking forward to is the exploring of other places too

Not sure how well I'll like the gameplay though

Yeah it just really seems odd. One thing I hate about it are those outlines around enemies. I always loved TES because they are immersive and you really feel like that world is real. And that they downgraded the graphics it wont even be that pretty to look at :/

[BSAA_Advisor]

Impressive. Got my self a Fallout 3 platinum but not attempting Skyrim.

[Kill3rofpoptarts]

Downgrading the graphics for ESO so it doesn't look as good sucks.

That's one thing I really like about skyrim are the graphics and scenery

[UMPiCK24]

This looks terrible right now and I have some new 100% and plats to add but I just don't have any time to do so right now :/...
