Platinum Difficulty Challenge 2022 (CLOSED)

[Han_the_Dragon]

Well, I think that I will drop a final update, since I finished SF5, and I definitely am not getting done with the 7/8/9 games for sure..

 

Still, it was fun as a side thing for me while playing for other challenges as well as my usual play (plus helped me to invest time on some stuff too..), so, I guess that I will join the next one too, regardless if I finish or not the full list!

 

The list:

1. Nightmares From the Deep: The Cursed Heart  (PSNProfiles difficulty)
2. Murdered: Soul Suspect PS4  (PSNProfiles difficulty)
3. Ghost of Tsushima PS4  (PSNProfiles difficulty)
4. Lollipop Chainsaw  (PSNProfiles difficulty)
5. Final Fantasy VII Remake PS5  (PSNProfiles/Platprices.com difficulty)
6. Gran Turismo 7 PS5  (PSNProfiles difficulty)
7. Dirt 3 | Modnation Racers | Split/Seccond | Anima
8. Wipeout Omega | Boodborne
9. Gran Turismo Sport
10. Street Fighter V  (PSNProfiles difficulty)

As I said, I'm essentially done with my entry, since I'm now working on my end of the year target, that is under 1400 unearned trophies, but even if I'm already under that value, I still need to clean up quite a bit before FF7R Crisis Core releases, since I'm still starting that one this year.. So, I think that from now until I get FF7R Crisis Core, I will only finish One Piece World Seeker DLC, and then still unsure between Blades of Time, Hitman, Rise of the Tomb Raider and a little bit of Injustice 1.. All in all, I want to clean up about 40 more trophies before I get hands on my copy of FF7R Crisis Core..

5th Update:

Because I rushed AC3 on my PS3 before the severs where closed down and then completely forgot it existed... I had not written it down as my number 5.

 

I think this it for my list, mostly because I don't think I can finish Yakuza 3 before the year is over and I don't feel like dealing with the others two right now. I think 7 out of 10 is not bad. It was a really fun event.

 

   1/10 - Telling Lies (PSNP) 07/23/2022

   2/10 - Murdered: Soul Suspect (PSNP) 02/01/2022

   3/10 - My Time at Portia (PSNP) 05/09/2022

   4/10 -  Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments (PlatPrices) 02/18/2022

   5/10 - Assassin's Creed III (PlaystationTrophies 5.66 average) 08/29/2022 

  6/10 - Yakuza Kiwami 2 (PSNP) 04/09/2022 

  7/10 - Yakuza 0 (PSNP) 02/01/2022

   8/10 - Yakuza 3 Remastered (PSNP)

   9/10 - Catherine (PSNP)

  10/10 - Injustice The Gods Among Us (PSNP)

 

I love all the additional badges for the next year event and I will be joining, got a few games in mind. Congratulations to everyone on their progress and my complete awe to those who started a second list... some even finished them, amazing work!

Congratulations on Bronze tier! Great job  Looking forward to updates on your 2023 list

I had finished Hotline Miami a bit ago and just realized that it's a 5/10 on psnp! I will most likely not be able to get dmc4 done by the end of the year, so this is probably final.

 

✅The little acre 1/10(psnp)
✅Simulacra 2/10(psnp)
✅One Piece burning blood 3/10(psnp)
✅Borderlands 3 4/10(psnp)

✅Hotline Miami 5/10(psnp)
✅Kingdom Hearts 6/10(psnp)
✅Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep 7/10(psnp)
✅Devil May Cry 8/10(psnp)
?Devil May Cry 4 9/10 (platprice)
✅Fall Guys 10/10 (psnp)

 

This event is really cool and I'm excited for next year!

❎ 1/10 - Duke Nukem 3D: 20th anniversary World Tour 

❎ 2/10 - The Stanley Parable

 3/10 - CrossCode (16/11)

 4/10 - Doom Eternal (3/12)

 5/10 - Hotline Miami (19/11)

 6/10 - Rollerdrome (15/9)

 7/10 - Inertial Drift (28/8)

 8/10 - Doom 3 (29/9)

 9/10 - Splasher (9/11)

 10/10 - Super Meat Boy (19/10)

 

And with Doom Eternal done I now have all the plats from the Doom franchise on my trophy list. My 2/10 is probably gonna be The Last Campfire since The Stanley Parable still cost a bit, and I'm also gonna challenge myself by going for Tunic as my 1/10 if I can afford the game.

For this year I don't see a chance to spend the necessary time and energy to complete the remaining game (SMB).

Gold Tier is fine for me because I don't want to remove anything from my original list or move it back and forth.

Some server shutdowns and only one week off this year hasn't been helpful either.

 

1. Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life Special Edition

2. Laser League

3. Friday the 13th

4. Cities: Skylines

5. 7 Days to Die

6. Tricky Towers

7. Superhot VR

8. Injustice: Gods Among Us

9. I AM BREAD

10. Super Meat Boy

Thank you for participating DeusEx! You might wanna look around your list and see if you have another 8 somewhere. You can count Injustice as a 10 so if you can find a different 8 then you'll have Platinum tier and will have finished the challenge even without Super Meat Boy. Also, you can totally apply SMB to next year's challenge if you wait to finish it until after new year!

The Last Campfire was a nice little  puzzle exploration indie, just a shame I only figured out you could mute the engwish narrator 2/3 of the way through, worked way better without her drowning out the beautiful soundtrack.

Managed to finish my list with at least one legitimately difficult game in Tetris Effect after using exploits to make Fall Guys and Everybody's Golf undeserving of their ratings 

 

Looking forward to doing this again next year, can finally start planning on my list for it now

My bad man! Thanks for tagging me. I've moved you up to Gold tier! Looks like you'll have a fully complete second list any day now  

[Saligun60]

Hi,

Sorry for my long absence. 

 

Before closing my list I just want to mention that I changed my profile name on my PSN account.

Indeed my old name is Mederic26 and my new ID is Saligun60. Sorry if this is not convenient.

 

But it doesn't prevent me from finishing my list thanks to Trine 2 that I finished this week end

 

 1/10 : The walking dead : a new frontier (PSNprofile)

 2/10 : Among us (Node gamers)

 3/10 : Plants VS Zombies : battle for neighborville (PSNprofile)

 4/10 : Bulletstorm fullclip edition (PSNprofile)

 5/10 : Injustice 2 (PSTHC)

 6/10 : Armello (PSNprofile)

 7/10 : Dead nation (PSNprofile)

 8/10 : The metronomicon (Platprice)

 9/10 : Trine 2 complete edition (Playstationtrophies.org)

 10/10 : Deadbolt (Platprice)

 

Thank you for this event that I found really nice. 
I'm seriously thinking of trying again for the 2023 event but in a more assiduous way.

[BlitzkriegHottie]

Saw your 2023 challenge post and I thought that the 2022 challenge was over, so glad it's until the first of Jan!

 

Here's an update on my second list:

 

1. The Artful Escape ✅ (stevivor)

 

2. Chicory ✅ (pstrophies)

 

3. Stray ✅ (psnp)

 

4. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night ✅ (psnp)

 

5. My Friend Pedro ✅ (psnp)

 

6. Bayonetta ✅ (psnp)

 

7. Blasphemous ✅ (psnp)

 

8. Hyper Light Drifter ✅ (metagame)

 

9. Fall Guys ✅ (metagame)

 

10. Catherine ❎ (xboxachievements)

 

Hyper Light Drifter is 7.5, rounded to 8.

Fall Guys is 9.5, rounded to 9.

Catherine is 9 literally everywhere except for xboxachievements but I definitely want it as my second list's top game because Fall Guys was an autopop.

 

Hopefully I'll finish this list in time! (need to get 2 other platinums first so Catherine can be my #300).

 

See you all later!

[Kramers001]

 1/10 - Tunic (16/12)

 2/10 - The Last Campfire (7/12)

 3/10 - CrossCode (16/11)

 4/10 - Doom Eternal (3/12)

 5/10 - Hotline Miami (19/11)

 6/10 - Rollerdrome (15/9)

 7/10 - Inertial Drift (28/8)

 8/10 - Doom 3 (29/9)

 9/10 - Splasher (9/11)

 10/10 - Super Meat Boy (19/10)

 

Done with my second list. Tunic was an interesting top down exploration game with an in-game manual you have to collect in order to learn about the games mechanics, though some of the puzzles in the end became a little obtuse for my taste. But a definite recommend.

[Rebourne07]

@BlitzkriegHottie Congratulations on Gold tier on a second list! Good luck on finishing Catherine before year end! You have until December 31st 11:59pm (23:59) in your time zone   

 

@Kramers001 Congratulations on two full Platinum tier lists! Great job man!!! You're only the 4th person to achieve this all year long.
