Ahhhh, it was nice to play this game again. No it wasn't. Brutal difficulty is stupid at some points. I mean, look at this:

 

ok, bye. (I need to continue my suffering with U2 and U3)

Phew! They weren't kidding when they said the challenges were a BITCH. But hey, not enough of one to keep from platting this in less than a day.

 

Truth be told, I had problems with ALL the beat em ups, both challenge-based and normal. Yeah, they are classics to many, but DAMN they play terribly nowadays. Especially Golden Axe. I would have said we must have been starved for beat-em-ups back then to even hold this series in high regard, but c'mon, we had games like Captain America and TMNT. Sure, they came much later, but after they did, we should have should just let the others in the dust. Eh, for all I know though, it's just the porting downgrades that annoyed me, and the arcade versions are still great.

Twisted Metal: Platinum #125

Difficulty: 3.5/10

Time Taken: 30-40 hours

 

Here's yet another ultra rare platinum for the collection. I put GTA Vice City on hold as soon as I heard this game was getting a server shutdown, the servers for the game are going to shut down on October 25th, 2018, there's way more than enough time to do the game as long as the servers don't turn to shit. I have seen a lot of people hype this game up as a difficult platinum, but it is fairly simple to get, but that's all because of an infinite ammo glitch that you can use on Twisted difficulty. A stupid part of this game is the fact that you need to complete the game on Twisted difficulty with all gold medals to unlock Warthog, which is required for the online trophy that requires you to get 50 online kills with every vehicle, the vehicle itself is absurdly terrible to use because it is slow and weak. 

 

I did kind of go all out with this game when I was working on the platinum, I used 6 PS3s and 12 controllers and got 2 trials to PS Now which I used on my laptop and on one of my PS4s, I did this setup to fill up a team mode. Because I didn't have a 15th controller, I couldn't use my 2nd PS4 on the game for free for all modes, so what I did for that was fill up a lobby with 6 controllers called "WaitingSimulator", then named my own lobby the same name, but changed the lowercase L to a capital i, this seems to have worked as I only ever encountered 2 random people in my entire time doing this game. 

 

While doing the online, I was too lazy to move my alt accounts, so it's a good thing this game has easy to find spawn points and also has the option to use a very small variation of most maps. I will say that trophy guides for this game are absurdly bad and the best help you could get on this game is with Aexzia's spreadsheet, I very much appreciate that being up because otherwise it would be a bit of a hassle to keep writing down everything I did. I did also have the trophy for 50 kills with each vehicle not unlock at exactly 50 kills with each vehicle, I had to get my 51st kill with Shadow to unlock the trophy, but it was a minor glitch. If you go for this platinum, you need to host your own lobbies if you want to progress, otherwise the trophies have an incredibly high chance of not unlocking when you do them. I'm glad "All Sales Are Final" can be done by changing the date on the console 30 times, otherwise the platinum would already be unobtainable.

It saddens me that Naughty Dog didn't bother to playtest Brutal difficulty. This is why I'm worried about ever doing that difficulty, since UC2 has the walking simulator chapter, where you have to carry the injured cameraman...and UC3 with the bridge...

 

I suggest, if you do the save exploit (for infinite ammo) to do so either after getting all collectibles done, or back up your hard/crushing save for UC2, since that's probably what fucked my collectibles up.

Grats. It's been months since I last played FFXV, but I already know fishing's gonna be the worst hassle for me.

Yeah I know what you mean. Golden Axe doesn't hold up all too well. One of the challenges has you killing two big dudes who just destroy you, took me 20+ tries to get down.

 

Streets of Rage 2 is hands down one of the best Sega Genesis games, up there with Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles. I was pissed when I found that neither Ecco the Dolphin nor Sonic 3 were in this collection, probably due to licensing issues. I know Michael Jackson played a part in Sonic 3, maybe that had something to do with it being missing.

 

Brought back lots of good memories though. Starting to miss those simpler times, before DLC existed and before you had to update all of your damn games to the latest patch version. Gets annoying after a while.

Do it with the exploit (enable cheats in Brutal without finishing it first), DO NOT TRY THIS WITHOUT IT. It's not Brutal, it's "I hate myself and I want to die" difficulty. Even with the exploit, it's so freaking hard, there are several areas later in the game in which you don't even have the time to aim because it's full of shotguns. Your best bet is activate 1-hit kill, equip with a shotgun and shoot from cover without pressing L2. You can die doing that too, but is less risky.

 Platinum # 37-50

 

Ah jeez. I think I may, just a tiny bit, went overboard in getting some platinums guys. So, I've decided to dust off my PS Vita and tackle some of the games I've played. It would take me a long time to really just describe each game but the highlights for me were Batman: Enemy Within, Wolf Among Us (I got it the first time on PS3 and now currently going to aim for the Vita version) and Hitman Go, just to name a few. Everything else was easy. Very, very easy.

Serious Sam 3 BFE

 

Look at that trophy image, it's such a beautiful piece of art... I'm almost moved to tears at its sight! ?

The game however was pretty fun, with a gameplay similar to the first 2 Doom games... and PS2-era graphics (that go well with the platinum image )

#351- Assassin's Creed Syndicate

Master Assassin 
Earn every other trophy.

 

Really fun entry in this series. The grapple hook that can be used to instantly get to the top of buildings is the greatest thing ever, carriages were a fun addition, and the city is so full of life and content. Sadly, bugs hampered the experience a bit..

 

I've never had a PS4 game freeze as much as this one. Had to close and relaunch the app five times while playing through it, because of this. Encountered some weird glitch one time, where my screen was blinking the entire time, leading to another close and relaunch of the game. And then some of my sidequest progress reset, so I had to replay almost half of the Dreadful Crimes missions. Not required for any trophies, but I can't resist murder mysteries. :/ Give me an entire game of those, please.

 

Still had a lot of fun with this one, though. Just not a perfect game from a performance standpoint.

#101: YOOKA-LAYLEE

 

Collectomaniac 
Collect every Trophy in Yooka-Laylee

Milestone: 4.500th trophy

 

Difficulty: 4/10 (Rextro mini games sucks...Kartos is ok.)

Enjoyment: 7/10

 

I enjoyed this game for what it was. It doesn't come close to Banjo-K or Banjo-T even, but it was still enjoyable. I definitely wouldn't say it sucked. If you can get it at a good price, I'd say go ahead and try it out for yourself!

I'm more excited to see what Playtonic does next after what they've learned from Yooka-Laylee.

   #55 - Marvel's Spider-Man (PS4)

Be Greater

 

2 weeks, 4 days

 

I will go on record to say that Spider-Man is definitely a contender for Game of the Year!

This game is a 10/10, it does everything perfectly, if you ask me.

This game is fun, engaging, well-crafted, balanced, and did I mention FUN!!

Insomniac has truly out done themselves with this game! Bravo!

I am sure other people in this forum have already heaped a myriad of praise upon this game, and given you all the reasons why, so I won't bore you with the details.

As an avid gamer, a trophy collector, and a fan of video games as a whole, this game is wonderful.

Do yourself a favour, if you are going to play one game this year, put this on your short list!

WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!

Yea, well... yea. Ok.

すべてのトロフィーを獲得し、「end sleep」を遊び尽くした証。お疲れ様でした(´∀｀*)

 

 

Wow. Gotta say wow. My first eroge that was transformed into all-age so it could be released on Vita.

And I gotta say I was really surprised. The depth of the story is something I really wouldn't expect from something that presents itself as horror eroge.

On the other hand, it did feel lacking especially during those 'cut' scenes since they were part of the flow and actually missing them really made you feel like something was missing.

But damn, the overall story... that easily made you forget it was supposed to be a porn game. 

And together with it came the reading difficulty. The amount of inner monologue from eroge protagonist was intense. 

I did say that RoboNotes is really unfitting for reading but this was probably even worse. In fact, for me, it was the toughest challenge as of yet, however, I learned a solid amount of kanji again.

 

Anyway, the progress of this VN is really well done. You slowly uncover new and new information about the setting and you never feel like you are doing ending pointlessly. Especially Kayako's route was an info bomb I didn't expect. Especially after Shizuku route which felt kinda lacking in terms of information but it was pretty cute. Mainly because Shizuku was better than Kayako, oh well. 

But then, Sui and true ending... That's when the game really kickstarted and the best girl whose identity I kinda spoiled myself with game's CGs, finally had some screen time

Now, I'll probably find some time to check the PC version for all the experience.

 

Anyway, this quite tired me out, I'll probably take a break from unvoiced protagonist VNs

It's just the problem I have with Beat em up ports; you take an already quarter-munching frustrating experience, then make it even MORESO to get people to pay $39 extra upfront for a home experience. Then you gotta downgrade it to fit said console, so things get even more annoying/frustrating. I wanted to add that Streets of Rage 2 and 3 seemed the less affected by it, which is why I chalked it up to porting issues. It seems like Turtles in Time/Hyperstone Heist and Captain America Genesis where the only ones that were ported as flawlessly as possible.

 

Yeah, I noticed that too. The Ultimate Genesis collection was enough for me (in that it had those games you mentioned while this one replaced them with a bunch of lackluster ones), but at least I have one for the PS4 now.

I like the first game, it was a mess but, I admired it's ambition.

But hmmm, the sequel sure is something

 

I made a video about it on my youtube channel, check it out if any of you are interested

Also, don't try to get the platinum. Just don't.

#76: Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Director's Cut)

 

I've had this sitting on a shelf for a long time and finally got round to playing it. It's easily one of the best games I've ever played on the PS3, wish I'd gotten into this series sooner (thank you PS+). I wouldn't have minded doing another playthrough but I was a bit worried about the trophies for not setting off any alarms and not killing anyone, cause the first one glitched on me in Mankind Divided and I had to redo the game again, and with the other trophy I'd occasionally backtrack to someone I'd knocked out and found that they'd died somehow. But all the trophies popped at the end this time.  

 

It being the Director's Cut version made it slightly harder but it also came with pretty interesting developer commentary throughout the game so it was definitely worth it.

The Streets of Rage games never were at the arcades, they played flawlessly. Although I noticed Streets of Rage 3 had sound issues which was not on the PS3 Genesis Collection. 

 

Still a good platinum to have. Just lazy work was done on the porting.

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3

I'm going to become the King of the Pirates! 
Acquire all trophies.

 

 

 

Among the Big 3 of Shounen Jump, I always prefer One Piece over Bleach and Naruto. I used to be updated with the manga but stopped reading it during Dressrosa arc. In have decided to reqd the manga again from the scratch it reminded me again why I like One Piece therefore when I saw One Piece games were on sale last month, I decided to buy one

 

The game was fun, could be biased on this one since I do like the manga and I do enjoy Mosou games. Nice that it covered the beginning of Luffy's adventure to Hazard Punk. The road to plat is a pain though. Among the other Mosou game I've played before, this one have my least fave plat. The RNG + Unnecessary grind/100% Gallery is definitely not fun. Lucikily the gameplay was really enjoyable and didn't bored me. 

Would definitely recommend if you are a fan of the anime/manga or if you enjoy Mosou games and don't mind spending hours of grind.

Would I play another One Piece game? Maybe, but for now, I'll just enjoy reading the manga.

Loved the gameplay, the setting, and the soundtrack. The story was...confusing but okay. The feeling to it was better than the predictable cliche writing. Overall a very innovative game!

#32: The Sexy Brutale

Totale Brutale You have unlocked every trick, secret and note that the mansion has to offer.

 

Well, I had a friend tell me that this is right up my alley, and he sure was right. The Sexy Brutale is a puzzle game that sort of reminds me of Majora's Mask: you are in a day that repeats over and over, and you are in a mansion where all of the guests are murdered over and over again. It's your job to try and stop them, and maybe find a way to stop the day from repeating over and over again. There's a slight twist though, as you can't be in the same room as any of the guests, so you have to do it from the shadows. The game is rather dark at quite a few points, but it's really delightfully creepy and definitely worth a look! (Also the plat is pretty easy to go for, so that's a bonus~)

Eh, it's not that bad to start from scratch. When I returned to the manga some years ago, I read 700 chapters in one week. Was worth it. Besides, Dressrosa's not that far from the Big Mom arc, as every arc drags for years lol. I'm considering getting this game (though I haven't tried my Burning Blood yet), and if I like it, I might stack it for the triple plat  (since I have the Asia and China versions of the game on cart  )

Earn all the Trophies in Tomb Raider: Underworld.

 

Lara's chest is one of the few good things about this game. Can't believe how many glitches there are in this game and how frustrating they get at times. Evidence suggests though that it was critically acclaimed when it came out. Guess the bars were set a lot lower back in 2008
