[adrifected248]

Little update here, I've just finished my first game from a list, and going to platinum Ratchet and Clank

 (January 24th 2023) 1/10 The Walking Dead: A New Frontier 

2/10 Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart

3/10 Far Cry 6

4/10 God of War Ragnarok

5/10 Metro Exodus 

6/10 The Last of Us Remastered

7/10 The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

8/10 Bloodborne

9/10 Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time

10/10 Hollow Knight

[Umdytr]

While looking for 6/10-difficulty guides on PSNProfiles the other day, I saw that Rez Infinite had one. So given I already owned the game via the Play At Home initiative, I went for it.

 

It's a very cool-looking game... with a stupidly mind-numbing trophy list that requires a lot more pointless grinding than it does skill. My total playtime must have been around 15 hours, but well over half that amount was spent just tediously repeating Score Attack runs (30 total) and the six full Direct Assault runs of the game. Wouldn't recommend this platinum and it's no wonder it's a relatively rare one both on this site and PSN itself.

 

At any rate, that's my 6/10 pick down for the count. Also made some very modest progress on Kena while focusing on Rez - hopefully I'll fully get around to it soon.

 

1/10 - Life is Strange

2/10 - AI: The Somnium Files

3/10 - House of the Dead Remake

4/10 - God of War Ascension

5/10 - Resident Evil 0

6/10 - Rez Infinite

7/10 - Kena Bridge of Spirits (13%)

8/10 - Slay the Spire

9/10 - Hollow Knight

10/10 - Super Meat Boy

[Skagarrin]

OK an update on my progress, I finished Hades this morning my 6/10.

What a great game. it fully deserves all the praise it got. Anyone else with this on your list(s) I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

 

It was meant to be a pick up and put down game for me for when the Diablo II grind got to me. As it turned out once I started I couldn't put it down

Progress edges slowly forward with Assassins Creed: Valhalla but I really need to put some time in on Diablo so this may be my last update for a while ?

 

   

 

Hades will net me:   Award Winner - Platinum a game with a trophy guide that won a PSNProfiles award

[Once I progress enough to get on the leader-boards]

 

Also, looking at the criteria for Jack of All Trades I think I have bent my list into being a candidate. So, I've added the Genres to my summary above.

 

Have fun everyone.

Ok it looks like the forum didn't like the cut and paste of my formatted list.

Back to the old format for now.

 

So list currently looks like:

1 - Life is Strange - PS4 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Drama

2 - Until Dawn - PS4 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Survival

3 - Assassin's Creed Valhalla - PS5 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Historical

4 - Tomb Raider: Legend - PS3 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Shooter - Completed 10/01/2023 - 20:27

5 - Uncharted: Drakes Fortune Remaster - PS4 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Comedy

6 - Hades - PS5 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Indie - Completed 28/01/2023 - 09:36

7 - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - PS4 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Open World - Completed 04/01/2023 - 07:09

8 - Dark Souls Remastered - PS4 [PSNProfiles Guide Difficulty] - Horror

9 - Returnal - PS5 [PlatPrices] - Science Fiction

10 - Diablo II: Resurrected - PS4 [PlatPrices] - Hack and Slash

This is Rule #8 so yeah once you have the for a game it counts for this event @Jennys_Trophies

[tankman_bilal28]

#49 Bloodborne

 

I almost did give up on this game because of Blood Starved Beast, he kept kicking my ass but I'm glad I push through cause this is one of the best games I ever played and in my top 5. The game got easier after BSB but there were still some bosses that gave me trouble but it wasn't as bad as it was with BSB. Overall I say this game is 10/10

✅ 5/10 - Yakuza Like A Dragon -  24/01/23

❎ 6/10 - Judgment  -

Wow, this actually is a pretty cool and creative challenge! I'm looking foward to try my hand at this one, but for now i will have to do a bit of planning on a list, cuz i don't have the slightest idea of what games to tackle. Thankfully we still have the whole year ahead of us 

[zaxonzaxon]

Vanquish down. Was gonna write something about how cheap I felt using it as a 10 'cus it's mostly pretty easy, but then I spent 3 days bashing my head against the infamous Tactical Challenge 6 and, well... yeah. It might not be a true 10, but I'll take it.

 

Fantastic game overall, though. I remember playing and enjoying the demo when it first came out on ps3, but I was broke at the time and never really got around to buying it. I'm glad this event thinger got me to finally play it.

Yeah it’s 25 of whatever your local currency is. But it’s not for every finisher lol I’d go broke. It’s for 1) the person with the most unique badges 2) the person with the most overall badges. 

[postofficebuddy]

I’d actually like to swap out my 4/10 for Resident Evil 5 which I just got the plat in the other day. That should get me the ‘Finally!’ badge since it’s an ancient 13 year clean up. Still haven’t decided what my 6, 8 and 9 are going to be. I’m also thinking I may swap out Wolf Among Us for Doki Doki Literature Club for the romantic badge in February.

Another update and another change to the list. Don't know why but decided to finally go back and give this another go after not playing it since it came out and having so many bugs. I only ran into one crash this time round and thoroughly enjoyed it. I might even go for Hades for my 6/10 now after having a few runs on it, seems rather addictive indeed. I think I'll finish up Miles Morales first as I need to do new game + and a couple other trophies. Might also try tackling Bloodborne as well........we'll see.

I couldn't open them initially, but I scrolled to the top of the page and back again. Magic!? 

 

As for my list, I've started Assetto Corsa and done a couple of the special events. Pretty confident I can get the plat, but it remains to be seen if I can get it in 2023.

[Rebourne07]

2022 Guide of the Year winners have been determined:

 

1st: Sol Cresta, 2nd: Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, 3rd: God of War: Ragnarok

 

So if you platinum any of these 3 games above you will earn the  Award Winner badge.

Note that platinuming any of these will not count against you for the  Minesweeper badge.

[Lum]

Got my first one done:

 

5/10: Resident Evil 0 

 

I first played this game back when it came out on the GameCube, but don’t remember too much of it, so the experience was a bit of a refresher for me. Like every other Resident Evil so far, it’s always been an thrilling experience with lots of mutated creatures and, of course, zombies to kill. The outdated mechanics could be a little off-putting to those who are used to playing many of the modern 3rd person games today though. Looking forward to eventually starting part 1, especially that it looks a lot different than the original that came out in 1996, and I loved playing that version a lot back in the day.

Yeah Leech Mode was challenging. I remembered reaching the end and failed to fully understand the trophy description and that only ONE character can pickup all of one color WITHOUT the other character picking up any amount of the other color. Once your other character picks up even one of the other color, the trophy is voided. I thought the description should have been better described.
