Platinum Challenge

[danseakins]

I'm planning on setting myself a challenge to achieve a platinum in one of every different type of sports game...

 

Preferred requirements:

Licensed game e.g. FIFA (if no licensed game then the most popular game of that sport can be chosen)

Platinum available/achievable (if no Platinum available then a game that is 100% achievable can be chosen)

No or a few multiplayer trophies (can be boostable if difficult)

 

was also considering a destruction derby game such as Wreckfest but already have the Platinum for that.

 

Please recommend some games and help me fill in the gaps ?

What an interesting challenge. For parkour, you really can't substitute anything for Mirror's Edge.

 

The platinum is definitely not easy, though, and the DLC is even harder if you want to get every trophy. 

 

If not, try Mirror's Edge 2 (much longer campaign with less interesting... well, everything... but a lot easier to 100%), or Dying Light might be a suitable replacement for you, but that DLC is also apparently quite difficult.

 

Good luck, I might check in from time to time, especially if the thread gets SPICY. ?

I'd say that Dying Light and it's sequel are more than acceptable for parkour aswell

I think Shaun White Snowboarding is unobtainable.

 

Baseball, probably go for the next MLB The Show game that comes out.

 

Basketball, I would suggest steering away from NBA2K. Maybe go for 3on3 Freestyle.

 

Boxing, you should try Creed: Rise to Glory. VR Boxing.

 

For checkers and chess, there's a bunch of games to pick from.

 

For Dodgeball, I suggest you go for Stikbold!, a very fun dodgeball game. Pretty hard, though.

 

eSports, literally any video game.

 

For fishing, try a Rapala game. RDR2 is also very good with the fishing mechanics, and require you to catch so many fish for the platinum.

 

I know there's a horse racing guide somewhere...

 

For Olympics, you gotta go with Olympic Games: Tokyo 2020! Such a fun platinum.

 

Parkour, Mirrors Edge. Or even Spider-Man, that has some really good parkour mechanics.

 

For Skateboarding, Skate 3. I hope to see you at one of my sessions. Best Skateboarding game ever.

 

Skiing, go with Steep.

 

This is a very fun challenge and I wish you the best of luck!

There's always this banger lol - Bibi & Tina at the Horse Farm Trophies • PSNProfiles.com

I see two times Football in the list but both entries list a game for what we call Football or Soccer. I suggest going for American Football too

[horatio_deltoro]

Cool idea! 

 

For esports I'd recommend Rocket League, alot of fun and not too difficult to plat.

 

Regarding parkour.. I never played Mirror's Edge, but I definitely recommend Dying Light.  The challenges can be frustrating but otherwise it's alot of fun.

 

With the Olympics, the Tokyo 2020 trophy guide lists it as a 2/10 taking around 8 hours.  But you might prefer the London 2012 one, being from UK and all, plus it's a rarer plat

 

I see you have truck racing but not car or rally racing.  Many racing games to choose from for cars, the Need for Speeds are fun I'd recommend Payback.  As for rally racing, it seems that Gravel is the most achievable, and I see it on sale all the time.

 

I agree with @Troz about winter sports, as he said Shaun White I believe is now unobtainable.  Steep is a much better game regardless, I second that recommendation.

 

As for hockey, the NHL games are VERY difficult to plat, mostly because of all the online requirements.  Something like Super Blood Hockey is still pretty fun and achievable in single player.

 

Bets of luck with your challenge!

For Skateboarding I'd highly recommend Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 Remake on the PS4. It's a difficult platinum trophy so if you ever go for it, best of luck!

I have updated the list now with 54 different sports

I have added Mirror's edge, i think i already have one of them and i also hope the thread gets SPICY lol

 

 

 

 

@Troz i have added stikbold, rapala, skate 3, Steep and Olympic Games: Tokyo 2020 - thanks for your suggestions!

 

@StygianWolf4 - added horse riding for bibi and tina, thanks for suggesting! ?

 

@horatio_deltoro thanks for suggesting but already have the plat for rocket league and added a few different racing types now. also i have NHL 2020 so could attempt the online trophies first and then move to Super Blood Hockey if unsuccessful.

 

@LancashireLad87 i do have Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 but have found it difficult, may well try again with this or attempt a Skate 3
