Update #2
 

I wasn't going to do a second update so soon, but I want to swap a game and I managed to knock off a few things over the past couple of days so why not! I'll try and update around this time each week moving forward.

 

I'm going to switch out Wonder Boy Returns Remix for F.I.S.T: Forged In Shadow Torch. Eventually I'll get back to Wonder Boy, but I just don't feel like playing through it again after completing it in the Wonder Boy Collection (even though I'm still planning to play through Monster Land and Monster Wonder IV a second time, lol). 

 

I was able to finish off Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom, Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap, and Criminal Girls these past few days. I'm quite happy with my progress so far, but I know things will slow down once I start tackling some of the more time consuming games like Ni no Kuni and Dragon Quest Heroes 2. For now though, very happy and I'm just going to keep chipping away.

 

I really enjoyed Criminal Girls so I'm going to see if I can track down a copy of the second game which I'll use another swap for sometime

 

Happy hunting, everyone!

Added in Voice of cards, but forgot to update before I was working on it. If there is any concern, you should be able to see on my profile that I just got my first trophy for it on the 6th of June

 

I got a bit into Control before not feeling great about continuing when I died so I wanted to move to something more simple and that is Voice of Cards. It has been pretty good so far, will review more when I finish it off

Mission 100%: Spring 2022 Backlog Challenge

 

Special thanks to @damon8r351 @colinmazzini and @ShadowStar83x for their parts in hosting the challenge!

If you're like me, you've got an insanely large backlog and have no good reason you keep putting it off and watching it grow. Why not do something about it? Like previous backlog challenges, this event is a challenge to the community to select between 5 and 25 games from your backlog and complete them to 100% starting 00:01 AM EST June 1 and ending at 23:59 US EST on August 31. If you complete the maximum of 25 before the end of the challenge, you can add up to 15 more games for a total of 40.

Now, here are the details and rules. 

• Event Philosophy: This is a firm commitment to complete the games you say you will within the time limit, so choose games you know you can finish, and select a manageable number. The minimum for the event is 5 games, and the maximum is 25. If you finish 25 games, you can add up to 10 more. You can change your games as much as you want until 23:59 EST on May 31. After the event begins, you can make up to three swaps. If you think there's a good reason to drop a game entirely without swapping (like your console broke or the game got damaged beyond repair), message me. If you want to add more games to your list or want to continue after finishing your list, you can add games to your list up to the maximum. Existing DLC counts in the challenge, but any DLC released during the challenge doesn’t have to be completed, but feel free to do so if you wish.
• Eligible Games: Any game with trophies are eligible for the event, with a few exceptions. One game can have a completion percentage of up to 50%, but the rest must be 33% or under. Unreleased games are fine as long as they're released and you buy them within the challenge's timeframe. If it gets delayed outside the challenge window, you can swap it and it not count against the three swaps. Standalone DLC (like Uncharted: The Lost Legacy) is acceptable as long as it's not part of another trophy list. If it is (Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare for example), you have to also complete the other trophies. You can also do a game where 100% is unobtainable if you feel strongly about it, but you must complete all obtainable trophies. Individual episodes of a game that has separate trophy lists, such as in early Telltale games or Broken Sword on the Vita, count as a single game; therefore, Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse counts as 1 game, not 5. For this event, you may complete a game you have previously done for a different platform or region before the start of this event, but you may not do the same game multiple times during this event. Cross-saving a game for an easy completion will also be ineligible. This includes autopopping a cross gen game on PS5. If you want it on both, you have to do it legit.
• Eligible Participants: Anyone is eligible to participate, provided you are serious about completing the games you say will. However, if you have flagged games on your PSNProfile, you are banned from participating unless you hide the games, get unflagged, or use a different profile. No cheating! You will be added to the list with your PSN name rather than PSNP, so if you change your PSN ID, please let me know so I can update you on the list. I will update the participants at least once a day, but if I miss you, @ me or send me a message and I'll add you ASAP.

 

Participation List

On 15-5-2022 at 8:06 PM, DizzyDavidson said:

I'm in once again! Here's my crazy list:

• Tales of Symphonia [PS3] - 0%
• Resistance 3 [PS3] - 0%
• MotoGP 18 [PS4] - 10%
• SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle For Bikini Bottom [PS4] - 0%
• Dynasty Warriors 6: Empires [PS3] - 0%
• Papers, Please [Vita] - 0%

Initial thoughts:

  Reveal hidden contents

Tales of Symphonia: This is a big one. I promised myself I would either play this or Final Fantasy X this year (the latter I played a gagillion times on PS2 so it can wait). The guide says 4 playthroughs and 150 hours. Considering I'll do my first playthrough mostly blind, those numbers will go higher for me. I tried to pick short/easy ones for my other games to even things out and I have some vacation time coming up in the summer. Wish me luck on this one!

 

Resistance 3: It's one of very few FPS games I like but this has been sitting in my backlog for far too long. Time to end it. I'm probably going to have to juggle 2 controllers at once for co-op campaign... :/

 

MotoGP: I need a racing game for a personal milestone. I got this in a sale and already done the online trophies. Since it's already started why not just finish it up.

 

SpongeBob: I wanted to include a PS+ title. I'm a big SpongeBob fan also, my sister and I quote the show all the time and just laugh when other people don't get what we're talking about.

 

DW6E: This one seems like a really short and easy DW game. I never played an "Empires" game so this will be interesting.

 

Papers, Please: I'll be spending some of my vacation time traveling. I usually take my Vita with me, hence the game. Just something relaxing, not requiring too much effort.

 

 

count me in i have to many games on disc i want to finish

Update #1! 

 

1. It Takes Two 0%

2. Lost In Random 100% - This was a lot of fun. The art style, story, and combat were all very unique and enjoyable! Only a few trophies were irksome and missable. 

3. God of War 0%

4. Nier JP 61% - Still chugging along! Lots of google translate photos heh.

5. Hollow Knight 0%

 

Worked on a few more games for THL points, but still working on these backlog games!

Saturdays will be my update night if I don't get anything else done lol. I picked up Planet Coaster again since I figured it wouldn't actually take super long to finish. Unfortunately the Downtown campaign is hindering my progress but I think maybe I can figure it out. I'm very excited to finally get that game done; I'll be really proud of that platinum even though I went into the workshop for all the coaster trophies lol. I'm also trying to finish the story in Crash 4. I did it the first time on my other profile in like two days but I am dreading actually going for the platinum so I'm dragging it out. I also restarted Deathloop and it seems...fun. I have no idea what is going on in that one but I loved Dishonored and I am getting that vibe from it so that's cool. Once I hit my goal of 75% completion for the Attack on Completion event, I will probably start The Sinking City as I believe that's another short-ish one. 

[reaperveteran86]

Update 1

- Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories 0% -> 6%

- Final Fantasy 7 0%

- Trials of Mana 0%

- Gal Gun 2 (EU) 15%

- Dragon Quest Heroes Heroes: The World Tree´s Woe and the Blight Below 11%

- Assassins Creed Rogue Remastered 2%

- Azur Lane: Crosswave (EU) 0%

- Shining Resonance Refrain 14%

- Ys: Memories of Celceta 8%

- Lego Marvel`s Avengers 0% -> 42%

 

I haven`t finished any game since the start of the event, but I started Disaster Report 4: Summer Memories yesterday (which is harder to complete then I thought, because the only 100% guide that I could find isn`t as 100% as it claims to be). Otherwise I played Lego Marvel`s Avengers (Story playthrough and 100% collectibles in the smaller hub worlds are done, so only the Manhattan hub, the free play and the dlc are left to do), Shining Resonance Refrain (no trophy progress because I strated a new game in refrain mode, which is the normal game plus extras. My old save file was 5 hours in normal mode,in which not all trophies are unlockable, so I decided to start again from the beginning) and Lonely Mountains Downhill (not in my list - the percentage was to high), which I hope to have the skills to make it my 275th platinum (currently by number 272) and some of the expert challenge requirements are brutal.

[Heather342]

Update 2

 

A pretty slow week for me this week, but still a bit of progress made on Resident Evil 2. All I've done this week is play the extra modes. I managed to complete The 4th Survivor run at the beginning of the week, and then I played through all the other Ghost Survivor scenarios and shooting all the Racoon collectables for the trophy. Then I got to the No Way Out scenario, and this is where my progress comes to a screeching halt. My god, it's so difficult and some of the RNG factors feel like absolute bullshit. I can get to around 75 ish zombies ok, but after that it all goes a bit crazy and I get stressed out making silly mistakes. Once I got to 96, and I thought I had it but then a stupid pale head zombie which I thought I'd killed previously snuck up behind me and ended my run. Absolutely devastated ?. I'll keep trying though.

 

Trophy progress:

Resident Evil 2 - 51 -> 54%

 

EDIT

Finally done it!!! ???

 

Trophy progress now 56%

Hi everyone, 

 

Here’s my update for the week. I got the Platinum in Lego Harry Potter 1-4. I really enjoyed this game although I had an issue getting one of the collectibles in the end of the game. A flower was supposed to rise, so that I could reach a character token, but it didn’t rise. I was really afraid I had to do everything all over again, but I managed to jump high and get it anyway. 
 

I’m swapping Evil Genius for The Last of Us Remastered. I’ve been wanting to platinum it for a long time, and I figured I should before the remake comes out. 
 

I’m adding some new games to my list, mostly easier titles that I’ve been wanting to play. 
 

Lego: Harry Potter years 1-4 - 41% —> 100%  
Elden ring - 0%

Cook, serve, delicious 2 - 37%

Evil Genius 2 - 4% —> Swap for: The Last of Us Remastered 4%

Cuphead - 20%

Pic-a-pix Classic - 0%

Pic-a-pix Classic 2 - 0%
Lego the Hobbit - 17%
Super Perils Of Baking - 0% —> 10% 
Lost in Random - 0%

[StilRh]

Hey all.

Hope you're all doing alright. Gaming has been a lifeline for me this week. I completed Control including the DLC and was thrilled to replay this (I don't really revisit games I've completed). I did use some cheats for the longer sections that I had already seen but experienced the new content (the search for 100% collectables included) as intended. The Alan Wake stuff was fun but I felt the Foundation DLC was especially strong content.

I've worked pretty hard on Shadow Tactics and I think it's great I made myself come back to the game (I previously stopped because a central character dies unexpectedly which is really sad but also you lose their abilities in the missions, further adding to that sense of loss). I don't think this is one I'll finish quickly though as the 100% trophies require some skill/precision that I will look at honing later on down the line.

I've nearly finished the base game of Outer Wilds. A lovely game. I didn't like it at first but after some stumbling around in ruins trying to solve puzzle that bridged time and space, I felt the investigation thrill I had from Obra Dinn. I've nailed all the trophies other than 100% archeology (I think I'm very close to this) and starting a fresh run and completing the game in a single 'run' I'm sure I'll get these tonight or tomorrow. I probably will dabble with the DLC, but I'm going to hold off on buying that for now.

This week I;m going to play some Atelier Sophie 2 and because I did some shopping in the sales, likely add another game or two to my list. I got Doom Eternal, Forbidden City, Roguebook and Wildfire. I'm sure Forbidden City is going to be added to my list as it's a shortish, exceptionally well recieved game that has more mystery for me to unravel. I plan to play absolutely blind my first playthrough and then take a guide from there. I might add another one of my new games to the list. Have a great week all

 

Edit: I love the Stick to the man love, I might just play this as well! And If you need a partner for MP trophies in Deathloop @Vulpine9Tails, let me know

 

Spoiler

Atelier Sophie 2 14%

Control: Ultimate Edition 34% > 100%

Disco Elysium 4%

Genesis Alpha One 13%

Hitman 3 24%

Legend of Heroes: Cold Steel 3 0%

Muv Luv: Alternate 20%

Phase 1 Total Progress

30 (+10)  7 (+6)  1 (+1)  1 (+1)   = 39/194 17.54% (+14.53%)

 

Split time between Game of Thrones and Digimon again this week.  I wrapped up the Game of Thrones trophies, and now have the dubious distinction of having the slowest platinum on-site for that game (7 years, 6 months, 3 days).  You would think in those 7 years Telltale would have patched the buggy and laggyness of the game, but nope, the big climactic battle was riddled with constant long pauses and misaligned or missing audio.  But it was the easy one to get out of the way first so moving on.

 

Digimon I played sporadically this last week, mostly power leveling to chip away at the 300 registered Digivolutions.  Only about 25-30 more to go, but most of the remaining ones are Mega Digimon which take a little longer to get, even with Max Exp boosting team available in the game.  Only finished a couple of the chapters in the story mode and one of the collectibles trophies, but at this point, I could burn through the rest of the story mode should I so desire.

 

Now I could double down my attention on Digimon, but I might start up one of the other ones (Call of Duty or Star Wars) as well to help break up the monotonous of level grinding. We will see.

Update 1 -

 

Wow! what a good State of Play that was. I'm so glad we have release windows for two games I wanted to put on my list originally- Stray and TMNT: Shredders revenge - which, as you can see, are now added in there.

 

This is super late first update for me, I have some construction going on in my house so it's been a bit difficult to get stuff done outside of main life things. I also got completely carried away on an Apple TV show called 'Severance' which has now cemented itself as one of my all-time favourite TV shows. Now I have to wait until 2023 for season 2, bummer.

 

On the gaming front - I made some good progress in Dark Souls, even though the trophy needle hasn't moved much in terms of completion. I'm going to be chipping away at this all week in the evenings. The construction should be finished in my home by the time the weekend rolls around, so i'm going to get started on The Quarry as soon as they have cleared out and I can reclaim my house once more.

1. The Quarry - 0%
2. Doom Eternal - 4%
3. Dark Souls 3 - 10% > 21%
4. Dying Light 2 - 24%
5. Metal Gear Solid V - 15%
6. TMNT: Shredders Revenge - 0% [July]
7. Stray - 0% [July]

[TalesofGaming]

Update 2:

 

1. Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life - 15% -> 51%

2. Maneater - 0%

3. NieR - 1%

4. SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated - 0%

5. LEGO Harry Potter Collection: Years 1-4 - 0%

 

Just wanna say that this Harvest Moon game has not aged well... I'm not even halfway done with the story yet and I already think the game is too long. Other than that, I don't have too many trophies left to get besides the story ones. The only one that's giving me a hard time is the one related to the "nice." I have no idea how to activate the cow scene. I've even looked through the forums trying out their suggestions and it still doesn't pop up...

[xItsLesterx]

Update #1

 

First update of the event but it's been ok. So my poison of choice is Call of Duty. Thought Battlefield 1 was going to replace it given the reviews but not happening. 9 times out of 10, I didn't know where I was getting shot from. It was way too campy. Nothing was more infuriating than getting killed off spawn. And I wasn't even playing hardcore matches. It just sucked. Was able to get past the worst grind of the game, which was the obtaining of the guns, thanks to a couple of guys that already had them. Now, I'm just a couple of trophies away from the 100%, one of which has NOT been earned in all of the month of June and then other, which, worst case scenario, I can just rent a server for a day and get it outta the way. Although, I'm hoping I just run into the map. Now, I'm gonna do Battlefield V, which I'm sure it's gonna suck too but doesn't have DLC trophies. 

 

Games list:

• Battlefield 1 (0% => 98%)
• Battlefield V (2%)
• South Park: The Fractured but Whole (0%)
• Star Wars Battlefront (0%)
• Star Wars Battlefront II (38%)

Great seeing everyone's progress though. Keep up the great work?

Update #2:

 

1) Rayman Legends (PS4) 24% -> 27%

2) Rocketbirds Hardboiled Chicken (Vita) 78% -> 81%

3) Old Man's Journey (PS4) 0%

4) Gorogoa (PS4) 0% -> 27%

5) Habroxia (Vita) 0%

6) Blazblue Cross Tag Battle (PS4) 70%

7) Super Bomberman R Online (PS4) 100% (shutdown 1/12) ✅

8) Anarchy: Rush Hour (PS3) 0%

9) Infestor 0% ->  100% 

10) Castle Pals 0% -> 100% 

11) Golfclub Wasteland 0%

12) Golf Zero 0%

13) Jump Force 0%

14) Planet of the Eyes 0%

15) Itadaki Smash 0%

 

Progress:

Finished 2 games off my list. The easiest of the bunch, but from the backlog. Intended to finish Rocketbirds but still need all signs in the last 6 chapters. Also played Gorogoa as a distraction when the Vita was charging together with Rayman Legends. Gorogoa is giving me more trouble than expected. But usually you see the solution after taking a break from the game.

1) Rayman Legends (PS4) 24% -> 27%

 

Not sure how you'll hit level 11 for the plat within the time frame of this event unless you've been doing the daily challenges for a while already or you plan on grabbing lots of golds / platinums. Best of luck though.

 

Update 2

 

1.) Red Faction: Guerrilla (PS3) - 40%
2.) Jump Force (PS4) - 31% -> 41% [shutdown 8/24]
3.) Blade Kitten (PS3) - 28%

8.) Super Bomberman R Online (PS4) - 0% -> 100% [shutdown 12/1]

9.) Stick it to the Man (PS4) - 0% -> 47%

 

Still primarily focusing on FF7R Hard mode run, but I've been doing a chapter a day of Stick it to the Man just to switch things up and keep that daily trophy streak going. I got up to Chapter 9 in FF7R(H) then switched over to Chapter 17 to farm AP to level materia. Currently trying for the Ultimate Weapon challenge, wiped on Bahamut on the first attempt, what a jerk! I don't know why they even bothered to include items in this game, since you can't use them in hard mode and that's the only time they'd be useful. Nothing to do but keep plugging away at it, I guess. ?

Angry Video Game Nerd I & II Deluxe - 26%

Ratchet and Clank 2: Going Commando (Vita) - 5%

The Last of Us: Remastered - 32%

Assassins's Creed 2 - 0% 

LEGO Batman 3 (PS3) - 100 % 

Sly 3 (PS3) - 0%

The Saboteur - 27%

Dirt 5 (PS4) - 0%

LEGO Incredibles - 0%

The Walking Dead Season 1 (PS4) - 0%

 

LEGO Batman.... SO MANY COLLECTIBLES!! The Saboteur is a really fun game though, would highly recommend, even in 2022. Have a road trip with about 5 hours of drive time on Saturday so hope to work on Ratchet and Clank 2 during the drive. Other than that, the plan is to knock these PS3 games out first, then go for Last of Us for my 300th Platinum. Will probably save LEGO Incredibles for last in order to space the LEGO games out to prevent as much burnout as I can lol.

Update #2

6/14/22

 

What's up y'all, hope everybody's havin a good week. Your progress certainly indicates as much! Big ups to @Heather342, that No Way Out scenario is a nasty one and I'm glad to hear you've conquered it - the hundo is pretty much smooth sailing after that one!

 

Progress has slowed down for me on account of GTA V, which is fine, as it was expected. Finally got the Elitist trophy, which gave me a legit fist pumping moment, but I'm on a CMM3 run that has been astonishingly unlucky, with three resets and one of my partners is stuck in bad sport lobbies til Thursday. The game has been exceptionally unkind to us. While I wait for him to finish serving his sentence though, I can get back to taking care of business here!

 

Guacamelee is awesome. I could not get the hard mode code to work to save my life, so I just started playing, and honestly I'm totally okay with playing this twice! Quickly became a classic example of a game bein like "why you been sleepin on me, bro??" and I can't believe I didn't hop on this sooner.

 

I did get stuck, though... I need to get back and see where I am?

 

Flipping Death is everything Stick It to the Man was and more. The gameplay is tightened, the story is a bit more cohesive, and the characters and surrounding world are somehow even more vibrant and lively. Zoink Games has got a new fan in me, man... they just know how to make shit fun.

 

Hoping to have those games wrapped up this time next week, and then I'll probably get into Transistor (why I've been dodging that one, who knows really). Everybody's off to a great start, keep those updates comin! As always, thanks for reading and thanks for posting?

 

1. Transistor (4%)

2. Salt and Sanctuary (0%)

3. Stick It to the Man! ✅️

4. Guacamelee! (2-->15%)

5. Unmetal ✅️

6. SOMA (0%)

7. Flipping Death (0-->31%)

Update 2: 

• Finished all but one trophy in Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin.  Only have about another hour or so until the plat I think.  Overall it's been a pretty decent time and at ~35h hasn't been too bad of a platinum.  I've started leveling some jobs to 99 for fun and have had a good time doing it.  This game gets more fun the deeper you dig into it, but the platinum requirements barely scratch the surface of how deep the customization is.    
• Started back up on Lost Judgment.  My plan is to make this Plat #150 and I expect it will take all of the next month or so.  I'm playing the first part of the game on v1.00 to take advantage of the cheap gambling trinkets at Onodera, which should cut about 10-15h off the plat time.  If I hadn't done both Yakuza 7 and Judgment within the last year, I'd be more inclined to do the gambling legit, but Lost Judgment is a massively long game as it is and anything to cut that time down is fine by me.
  • Currently in early Chapter 1 powering through all of the minigames before I launch into the story.  I've got all the Mahjong, koi-koi and oicho-kabu requirements done, and all of the arcade games except for the UFO catcher finished as well.  Just need to get the poker games done but I think those don't open up til later in the story
  • The fighting combat is fantastic and definitely the best in the series.  I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorite games I've played this year.  Looking forward to the story!

Plans for this week: 

• Finish SoP
• Finish minigames in Lost Judgment and complete the first 3-4 chapters

List:

1. Cyberpunk 2077 [PS5] - 42%
2. Shenmue II
3. Life is Strange: True Colors [PS5]
4. Lost Judgment [PS5] - 2% -> 3%
5. Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin [PS5] - 26% -> 91%
6. My Name is Mayo 3

Games Complete: 0/6

Trophies: 68/262 (26.0%)

Thanks Smevz ? Those pale zombies were the absolute worst in that scenario, but it's done now, and I never have to look at a pale zombie again ?

 

Glad to hear you've been enjoying Guacamelee too. I played it in the last challenge and it was a lot of fun (although the Vita version has a slightly different trophy list to the STCE version). All the Drinkbox studios games I've played have been great, I'll probably grab the sequel too ?. I ended up playing the game through twice, and I think it only took me about 4-5 hours just to power through the main objectives of the game. Just make sure you pick up enough health and stamina upgrades through your second playthrough and you should be fine ?
