Sad game. Probably a nice game for kids to learn how to play a game, but the story matter was very sad, especially if you have ever lost a loved one.

Finished 3 more games this week, so almost halfway there!

Probably going for Control next, but I'm not quite sure yet.

[Aecesaje_]

Finished both the second and third game. Cars Race-O-Rama was disappointing, I heard it was supposed to be the best one out of, let's call "Cars Gaming Universe", but Cars 2 was a way better experience. Also did Gabbuchi, the EU list, this one was pretty fun, really recommend playing it

Slowly chipping away at [5] and [3]. I should have known better than to tackle an RPG and a huge open world game like LEGO City Undercover. Only at Chapter 7 there.

Abyss was a painful game as I missed a couple of domino games and ended up playing 3 times.  

[SupergiantStarr]

1 - Stray (PS5) [17011]

6 - Final Fantasy VII Remake (PS5) [13116]

8 - Dishonored 2 [5528]

 

Quick progress update! Stray, I'm sure, is a popular choice if y'all haven't already finished it in July. I wanted to save it for my 275th platinum - despite there not being a milestone for such a thing, just for funsies. Very cute game, thankfully no real frustrating bits. Can't wait to see what that dev will come up with next. Also finally got around to playing Dishonored 2 which is such an incredible game. Three playthroughs was a lot, but I never really got trophy fatigue. Very grateful that there's no ridiculously difficult DLC like the first game, though.

 

Last update in a while! I decided to start playing Yakuza Kiwami (my second Yakuza after Zero) and that's gonna take quite a bit. And while I'm playing that, I'll be playing through Dishonored Death of the Outsider which won't count for the event - I just wanted it neatly next to Dishonored 2 in my trophy list. Then probably the FF7R DLC before finally jumping back into my list for the event. 

 

Also, if anyone has any suggestions for the number 4 spot, please drop them for me - especially if they're in PS Plus Premium/Extra. Otherwise, I'll probably just be double dipping.

[ObsiEez]

Finished #2 & #9 with Turok 2 & Operation: Tango. Super fun games. Will probably do Alan Wake & Scarlet Nexus next since I've platinumed both of those games already I can rush straight through them. I'm plowing through these a lot faster than I was expecting. Granted I did pick some pretty quick titles. Anyway I'll see y'all with the next update!

 

0 - Minecraft (PS Vita) 

1 - Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon Classic Edition ?

2 - Turok 2: Seeds of Evil 

3 - Scarlet Nexus (PS4)

Halfway done! Like I said for Monster Sanctuary, it wouldn't be a creature-collecting game without lackluster monster designs and - politely - wack battle mechanics. I have a soft spot for the series regardless so I'm glad to get this last stack done.

Was Alwa any good? Have it on my list but wasnt sure if its worth it or if it was just a game who jumps on the metroidvania hype train

 

I had a great time with both games! I'd be comfortable saying Alwa's Awakening is my new favorite NES game, as it got a very faithful port several years ago and I have little nostalgia or regard for most games of that era. Alwa's Legacy is direct sequel that shoots for somewhere between the 16- and 32-bit eras in terms of style, and evolves the same core moveset in some unexpected ways. I'd recommend them both for sure, but bear in mind that the list of metroidvanias I wouldn't recommend is pretty short.

I am halfway done the challenge now with another 2 games completed. Really wasn't a fan of Maquette but Lost Words was really quite decent.

Next up for me will likely be Stray (#1) and finish off the last few rounds of golf needed to unlock the last vs character in Everybody's Golf (#4).

0: Shadow of the Colossus PS4 Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection
1: Stray PS5
2: Donut County PS4 NA
3: Kena Bridge of Spirits PS5
4: Mirror's Edge Catalyst
5: FF VII Remastered (not Remake)
6: FF VIII Remastered
7: The Last Guardian Uncharted 2 Remastered
8: Scarlet Nexus PS5 Uncharted 1 Remastered
9: FF IX Remastered Uncharted 3 Remastered

 

Just completed Mirror's Edge Catalyst. Everything about this game was just so frustrating. I was expecting it to be significantly better than the original game, but was sorely disappointed. This was at least easier than the first, but alas. Glad to be done with it. And you'll notice my plan has DRASTICALLY changed. This is due to a combination of factors I put in the spoiler box below for anyone interested. Nevertheless, on to the Uncharted series replays on modern hardware!

Spoiler

• Scarlet Nexus was a dialogue deluge in the opening moments, so I stopped before earning a trophy. I'll play it on my own time, but not during an event, to ensure I enjoy the experience
• Shadow of the Colossus control scheme has significantly diminished my desire to play it upon reading it. I couldn't handle Immortals Fenyx Rising's controls and stopped playing before earning a trophy, and this looked (and sounded on forums) significantly worse
• I've been meaning to play the Uncharted series again in full, and they slot in to my plan very well!

Completed Lumo. Fun game with a terrible second half. At least I got a bunch of UR trophies out of it.

 0: Unpacking (PS5) (16110)

 3: Secret of Mana (7223)
 4: Legend of Mana (13244)

 7: Unpacking (PS4) (16287)
 8: Persian Nights 2: Moonlight Veil (11968)
 9: LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 (5449) 

 

So I finally spent four days straight completing LEGO City Undercover. I admit it's a fun game for casual play but oh my Arceus, the city is so dang big you easily miss stuff. I missed one Coffee Break(one of the Construction Suit's challenges, each of McCain's disguise types except for civilian has two challenges in each district and there are tons of races and other things to look out for) and I missed a ton of character tokens. Found out that Grand Canal, while is has only three items, had the final Coffee Break for me to 100% every disguise challenge. The challenges range from chasing down car thieves(which I failed several times because [bleep] the fact that sometimes the game gives the thief a big lead while you run to the helidropped police car, I eventually just used the Instant Vehicles Red Brick to spawn a cycle and even then I kept getting hit by cars or hitting fences giving the thief time to escape and failing the challenge ?) to finding obscure things like cats to rescue. There are 14 challenges in total in each district and 14 districts including the three islands, three bridges and the Grand Canal. And yes, you get a gold brick every time you complete a challenge. The 45 gold bricks for the usual suspects in the 'special assignment' levels(fill the stud meter to max, get all four 'shield piece' minikits and complete the leve) are bread crumbs compared to the challenges... and I missed two free gold bricks in the Police Station.

 

Even after getting all 450 Gold Bricks, I still missed a ton of character tokens so I had to use HappyThumbGaming's guides to find them and even then they are tricky. Finally, I had to get all the secret shield pieces(five of them, easy to find) and destroy the five hidden Rex Skull Sculptures(I eventually found the last one in Apollo Island).

 

The game will take you a month to get the platinum in, don't do this game unless you love Grand Theft Auto(Chase can steal cars like in GTA which I find funny).

 

The good thing is that I didn't fail the mission just before the final special assignment which I had done last time tackled this game - you are timed and if you run out of time, the mission fails. The third part has you fighting Agent Smiths while trying to assemble four shield generators... in under two minutes.

 

I already dread that I have to do LEGO Harry Potter Years 5-7 which is even longer due to having nine extra levels...

 

I am running Secret of Mana so I can get this done, but I am playing Pokemon to clear my head. I probably won't have much time to game in the future as my shed-shack is done but it's a shell that needs flooring, wall paneling, insulation, and the works and my dad is one of those old-skool farmer boys who refuses to outsource (since it costs a pretty mint to even get the project approved) and this will take us weeks of work to do before it can be liveable. (It's a hotbox right now as we need to install an AC and he won't do it until the stuff I mentioned is done and dusted. So yeah... I will probably be slowing down for the rest of the month. (Not to mention that Patch 6.2 in FFXIV is dropping in five days so I need to do some stuff there - not trophy hunting as my last account has the platinums for both versions of FFXIV, which is 'never again' as the PS4 version is a grind and the PS5 version will never be complete due to it being an MMO. I'm not tainting this account with MMO vibes EVER no matter how cool it is. )

 

Sorry for the wall of text, just ranting on how much time it took to platinum LEGO City Undercover. Anyone do this insanity?

Nice to see someone else plat LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 for their 9 game! I'd love to try Ni No Kuni, but I don't know if I want to stream the PS3 edition now that I have the physical copy of the PS4 remaster.
