Popular Post B-I-G-DEVIL Posted January 19, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) THIS METHOD NO LONGER WORKS DUE TO A RECENT PATCH. I worked on a complete game video guide for this game yesterday, showing how to complete each level, as I assumed cheats wouldn't work again. However, I noticed some quick platinums for this game and managed to work out how people were doing this. There are 20 trophies in total required to unlock the platinum. You must complete the 19 story levels, earning 1 trophy for each. You also need to defeat 1 enemy with a knife to get the platinum. You can do all this in less than 10 minutes using cheats. This is what this post will focus on. Trophy List in the spoiler. Spoiler To Begin Anew Unlock all trophies in Syphon Filter 3 Checking Out Complete 'Hotel Fukushima' Vines and Mines Complete 'Costa Rican Plantation' Mile High Stowaway Complete 'C-5 Galaxy Transport' Fool's Gold Complete 'Pugari Gold Mine' Too Late to Save Complete 'Pugari Complex' Out of Sight, Out of Mind Complete 'Kabul, Afghanistan' Bombastic Cruise Complete 'S.S. Lorelei' Mission in Ruins Complete 'Aztec Ruins' What's the Rush? Complete 'Waterfront' Betrayal of Character Complete 'Docks Final Assault' Dusty Highway Complete 'Convoy' Tankbuster Complete 'The Beast' High-Risk Infiltration Complete 'Australian Outback' To Cure the Locals Complete 'St. George, Australia' Free for All Chaos Complete 'Paradise Ridge' Unlikely Allies Complete 'Militia Compound' To Protect and Serve Complete 'Underground Bunker' Capital Treason Complete 'Senate Building' End of an Era Complete 'D.C. Subway' Knife to Meet You Eliminate an enemy using a knife Anyway, using cheat codes to earn the Platinum trophy is very simple. This should work on the PAL and NTSC versions of the game. 1. From the main menu, start a mini-game; I used the pre-selected level. 2. Once the mini-game has loaded, pause the game (right side of the touchpad) 3. Hover over the map and Hold (NOT PRESS) Right+L2+R2+Square+X+Circle - You will know if this worked as a sound will play 4. Now go to Options - Cheat - End Level. Confirm this and save the settings. 5. Start a new one-player game, pause the game (right side of the touchpad) 6. Go to Options - Cheat - End Level. You will earn your first trophy, and the game will ask if you want to save. You do not need to save. 7. Repeat this step for every level until Aztec Ruin - > Go to Options - Cheat - End Level 8. At the start of Aztech Ruin, Swap to a Knife (left side of the touchpad) and defeat the enemy in front of you. You will earn the only non-story related trophy. Knife to Meet You 9. Repeat this step until the end of the game - > Go to Options - Cheat - End Level Video guide for evidence/in case the above isn't clear enough. If it does get patched, then please leave a reply, so people know. Full game without cheats guide below: I uploaded my full game playthrough if anyone needs a full game walkthrough. To earn the trophies without cheats, you need to complete every level. It's not too complicated but will take 3-8 hours to complete. So a lot longer than the previous method. Edited January 27, 2023 by B-I-G-DEVIL removed guide video with cheat method. As no longer works. Replaced with full game playthrough video 38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mokujin Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Just logged on and the game has an update file - while I’m not going for this method, after seeing the update file I’d say testing is necessary to confirm it still works after the latest patch for future informations sake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomkaulitz97 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Thank you I found this method from bad driver on YouTube no worry's he gave you credit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavietka Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I don't blame anyone who resort to this method. Not for this entry in the saga specifically. This game is such a let down after the first two. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sepheroithisgod Posted January 20, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 20, 2023 Nothing wrong with this method, but why even bother with the game at this point? The trophy list was already as basic as it gets, just beat the game. You even have a rewind feature to fall back on if needed. Not trying to be critical, I just don't understand the mindset. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me neither. Though I somewhat wish I did use the exploit after having done it legit. This game is the "kingdom of the crystal skill" of the saga.

LadyGallethX3 Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Nice, so technically a easy peasy. Ratalaka style trophy earning If it was free sure, but too expensive to buy just to cheat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I agree. I played the full game on the PS5 version. PS Plus Premium is my first time playing these games, and I found it not too difficult between the 3 once I got used to the movement and appreciate them for their age. I was curious how people completed it so quickly and then figured it out. Personally, I would recommend playing the game at least once. Then if wantred to stack, use this method For anyone asking about the other two games. I'm not aware of a level skip option.

Not trying to be critical, I just don't understand the mindset. The only reasonable mindset I can think of is someone might’ve already played the game back on the PS1 and just wants to mark the game on their profile. I enjoyed taking a trip back to memory lane, however I wouldn’t blame someone who uses this exploit as the third entry is really weak. Now if they skipped the first or second entry, (or the other games) then I would have a personal problem with it. Lol.

Lil-Gameboy123 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Thank you so much for this cheat method! I honestly didn’t mind taking the easy way out after reading how weak this entry was. Personally, playing the first game with some cheats and the second game legit were better experiences imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the case with me. I did this back in the day and it's not a good enough game to do again if I can just cheese the list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericperez18 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 There's a patch 1.01, but this method still works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da-Noob123 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Nice find and thanks for the walk through. I never beat this one back in the day so I'll probably do it legit. If I go for the stacks I will make use of it for sure. Maybe I will use for the annual national trophy hunting event this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valzentia Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 This works on both versions if anyone's thinking about asking (not sure why it wouldnt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boni_Neto Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Can you use the ps1 cheats on this one, or did they blocked them like in SF2? Anyway, I won't be playing this game any time soon, in my country it costs 50 bucks, which would be 10 dollars. Still, a ridiculous price for a playstation ONE game that has 22 years.
