Been two months since I posted about completing another game for the platinum difficulty challenge, but I recently have finished Star Wars: The Force Unleashed for the PS3, which is rated a 9/10 on Playstationtrophies.org and it was a trek! Overall, I had a great time with the game despite some parts of the experience having clearly aged since it came out in 2008. 

 

While the DLC wasn't too bad, the Sith Master difficulty trophy for the base game is takes the cake for being annoying and frustrating as many enemies can easily drain your health down in a matter of seconds, especially enemies that can shoot projectiles at you. The bosses also can very easily destroy your health bar and I have died to them many times as well. Also, the kill 500 enemies with whatever ability trophies felt unnecessary and time consuming.

 

Glad to have the platinum trophy and the 100% for this game!

 

Here is an update to my 1-10 list and I have made some changes as well to what games I will be playing:

 

1/10 – Road Bustle (Asian Version) (PS4) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

2/10 – Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (PS5) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

3/10 – Ratchet & Clank (PS4) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

4/10 – Resident Evil 6 (PS4) (Platinum and 100% Done) (PSNProfiles)

5/10 – Jump Force (PS4) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

6/10 – Team Sonic Racing (PS4) (Done) (Playstationtrophies.org)

7/10 – Persona 4 Arena Ultimax (PS3) (Plus DLC) (PSNProfiles)

8/10 – Elden Ring (PS4) (PSNProfiles)

9/10 – Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (PS3) (Platinum and 100% Done) (Playstationtrophies.org)

10/10 – Hollow Knight (EU) (PS4) (Playstationtrophies.org)

 

I hope I can get this fun challenge done by the end of the year!

 

Just wanted to make a quick update to my list for a new game I am playing at the moment:

 

1/10 – Road Bustle (Asian Version) (PS4) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

2/10 – Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (PS5) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

3/10 – Ratchet & Clank (PS4) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

4/10 – Resident Evil 6 (PS4) (Platinum and 100% Done) (PSNProfiles)

5/10 – Jump Force (PS4) (Done) (PSNProfiles)

6/10 – Team Sonic Racing (PS4) (Done) (Playstationtrophies.org)

7/10 – Persona 4 Arena Ultimax (PS3) (Plus DLC) (PSNProfiles)

8/10 – Dragon Ball Fighterz (PS4) (PSNProfiles)

9/10 – Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (PS3) (Platinum and 100% Done) (Playstationtrophies.org)

10/10 – Hollow Knight (EU) (PS4) (Playstationtrophies.org)

 

Just started Dragon Ball Fighterz for the PS4 and the guide on PSNProfiles has it rated a 8/10, so I wanted to add this to my list now. I haven't finished yet but I pretty much have all of the main game trophies except for the zeni trophies, which I can get when there is a big zeni payout later in the year.

 

Wish me luck and pray with me for a higher zeni payout!

Trophy Triumphant

(2.92%)  (Ultra Rare)

 

Finally, I have finished Dragon Ball FighterZ after doing that terrible 20 million zeni trophy through the login bonus trick!

 

Overall, I had an enjoyable time with the game, despite the online and zeni related grinds bringing down the experience a bit. 

 

I am glad that I have finished the amazing game!

Can I still join this? I know it's very late but platinums I've already gotten in 2022 count? Or only those I earn after joining count? Because that would save me some time.

Yep, welcome aboard! Any platinum earned in 2022 counts, even ones earned before joining. It hasn't happened yet, but I expect at some point later in the year someone will stumble on this thread and join having already platinum'd all 10 lol

Nice! As is it looks like you're already in Bronze tier! If I were you I'd embrace the cheese and put your Fall Guys stack as your 10. You did the OG back before Sweet Thieves so you deserve it lol But it's totally up to you. Let me know what you wanna do.

Two platformers done with SpongeBob and Crash 4. SpongeBob was fun, but i also think i'm getting a little too old for this tbh.

 

Crash 4 is a bit of a weird one for me. While i absolutely love the entire game from start to finish, completing it gets a bit tedious down the road. I think it would have been way more enjoyable if it wouln't be required to get all gems all over again in the N.Verted Mode, some of the filters might hurt your eyes as well after a while. After getting all gems and perfect relics in all levels I started doing the infamous time trials and I was a bit surprised how "easy" it was. It's pretty simple: if you can't pull off the triple spin and/or slide spin movements consistently and feeling comfortable with it, you will have a rough time getting any platinum relic. But once you've learned it, every single one of them is pretty much free since the platinum times are almost a joke in every level. As a quick example: the final main level requires 1:59.87. I managed to beat that by over 30 seconds while doing the last bit of the level insanely slow and safe to get to the end. That's an extreme example but beating all the required the times by 10-20s isn't as rare as you might think. Anyways, as I said before, as much as i love the game, i think it overstayed it's welcome just a bit, if you're going for completion.

The fantastic Stray is down.  Just a lovely adventure game full of awesome locations, fun puzzles, and of course, the cat.  The trophy list was fun to get through and I'm really glad I committed to a blind playthrough as working through it with a guide would have absolutely spoiled the experience.  My only real gripe is that there is a speedrun trophy, which isn't hard it just totally kills the vibe of the game.  You spend a good amount of time wandering around, chatting with robots, building a connection with your drone pal, to then have to mash SQUARE through all the conversations to hit a sub 2 hour completion.  Rant over.  Buy this game.

Congratulations to @BigE1286 on hitting Bronze tier on your second list!

4th Update:

 

Two more games to my list, 4 games to go. I think I have something for each of the ones I am missing except number 10th everything at that category seems too daunting.

Is been kind of a complicated few months for many reasons, and is reflecting on my gaming I've been starting games and not feeling them at all so I end up dropping them into the void and try something else, my to do list is growing long.
