Most Recent Platinum

[SurvivorBlues]

Finally got this collection out of the way

 

 x2

Sly 2

 

I always thought that the first Sly was better then the second but after replaying both games the second came out on top.

Where the first one was more like a short fun wacky game the second one feels more like an finished product, although I still think the game dragged on too long.

 

Sly 3

 

The last Sly from Sucker Punch and in my opinion the best. It's still the old fun wacky gameplay but they mixed it up a lot with different characters and constantly changing gameplay. I loved that the game was shorter then Sly 2 but with all the challenges that weren't exactly challenging it still took longer then I'd planned.

 

Overall a very fun collection!

InFAMOUS 2 - inFAMOUS 2 Platinum Trophy

 

Finally circled back to this one after a year on my wait list. Now I'm working to start the 5 million gold grind on Diablo 3.

[Tankor_smash]

Pacman and the ghostly adventures.  Played this to break up the monotony of grinding out fortune spheres, but now this is done and I still need a few dozen spheres.... 

[Sakraali]

If you play this game in the future, don't expect a deep storyline and character design.  The battle system probably the only redeeming quality in this game.

 

And even that becomes overly repetitive once you've met all the five unique enemies...

 

Master of the Raven

You have unlocked all Trophies of "The Raven"!

 

 

This game is unbelievably bad in every aspect: story is BS, graphics very mediocre even on PS3 standards, controls god-awful and it glitches. A lot. Add to that you ony have one save slot and no checkpoints, meaning that in the very likely event of glitch you may even be forced to restart the whole chapter. For $5 I paid it wasn't the worst imaginable, but I can't really go recommending it.

#132-Ys: Memories of Celceta

 

This was  near perfect RPG and I am so happy it was available on the golden sale. I have been waiting for a sale for this game since Christmas so I had to snatch it up at 19.99. Fast paced combat, excellent story, one of my favourite soundtracks and just an all around amazing game.

 

I heard a lot of reports that people found Nightmare easy but even at max level with fully powered up legendary weapons I was still just chipping away at bosses (even in stagger mode) also I had fully upgraded armour (the best in the game) and I was still getting 1-hit killed by bosses O_o.

 

Regardless I recommend this game and I can now say I have a Y platinum. Just X and Z left

 

So take it away Norah

Mercenary Kings

Earned by 380 of 34,155 PS4 game owners

This game is commonly compared to Metal Slug. If you liked that game, you will probably enjoy this one as well. I never had that experience. This game is a side-scrolling 2d shooter with up to 4-player online/offline coop. The game is simplistic, but offered a fair amount of enjoyment and challenge.

Story
This game didn't offer much value in terms of story. There were no voice actors (except the guy that said "Mercenary Kings", "Mission Complete", or "Mission Failed"). The story is delivered via short cutscenes and textual sequences. I found myself rather bored with the story and skipped many of those sequences to simply continue playing the game. I get the premise of the story and it was interesting enough... it just wasn't delivered properly IMO. It did however, fit the theme of the retro game's style. There are 112 levels to conquer (most of which you will be playing 2+ times each). Your first playthrough of each mission will be learning the map layout and enemies present while your second run will be for speed. I experienced several issues while playing that game such as the game crashing and lag/framerate drops (even in single player). I found this peculiar due to the game's simplistic graphics, AI, and repetitive soundtrack. The quality of the programming just seemed sub par for the end result of the game.

Difficulty
There is only one difficulty in the game (not selectable). For the most part, the game isn't very difficult, but the trophy requirements were. Once you start unlocking weapon parts and find enough materials to experiment, the game isn't too tough until the last couple ranks. Some of those boss fights were a real pain for me... until I started using the "invincibility glitch". I know, it's pretty lame. I'm sure I would have done it all legit eventually, but I don't regret using it for the simple fact that it probably saved me hours of repetitive gameplay.

Multiplayer
There are no trophies that specifically require multiplayer, but a few of the speed runs can be made much easier with the help of some friends. The invite system was slightly goofy and required the use of the PS4 OS; there was in in-game invite/party system. I never used the chat (if there is one) because we utilized the Party Chat on PS4. I honestly felt that, in many cases, the game was harder with a team. There were minor lag issues and I always felt a little rushed when playing with friends... no idea why that is though :\

 

I'd like to send out a thank you to my coop crew: MatCauthon, REDSHIRT64, and Rowdi1

Trophies
The trophy list on this game is fairly short, but don't let that fool you. The road to platinum was not very short. While I have played longer games, this one has some fairly hefty requirements in terms of trophies. My overall time in the game was a little over 60 hours and I didn't dick around too awful much.

There will be hours of repetitive gameplay... and it gets a little repetitive fairly quickly. Be prepared for material grinding. Overall, though, the game was pretty fun and I would recommend it.

Platinum Difficulty: 6/10
Overall Enjoyment: 7/10

#23 - The Last Of Us

It can't be for nothing - 5.84%

Singleplayer 200 out of 10 ! I fell in love with Ellie     
So it better not be for nothing (yes naughty dog, I'm implying you start working on a sequel with Ellie & Joel   )
However... multiplayer 5/10. Fun at times, but takes too long. (I do like it better this way than vice versa )

Virtue's Last Reward

 

 

I enjoyed this game to a certain extent.  There was a TON of story/dialogue repetition (A good story though).  The game play idea is great, but not executed as well as it could have been.  Overall good.  If you like this type of game, I highly suggest Danganronpa Trigger Happy Havoc.

You've earned all the F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin Trophies!

F.E.A.R 2: Project Origin

 

At the start of this year I was determined to make real progress in improving my completion percentage. After having a kid in November, I could no longer go out and spend money on new games whenever I wanted. I knew that this would mean revisiting many games that I had put down for specific reasons. The speed run trophy in Braid. Completing Mega Man 10 without being hit a single time. Finishing all those damn trials in Dante's Inferno. However, no game on my list this side of Wipeout taunted me like F.E.A.R. 2 - a game that I had played long before I was interested in trophy hunting. A game that I had dismissed several times as "not worth it", or "too much work". Now, I find myself with the platinum.

 

I have been asked how I could spend so much time boosting this game, when I could have earned half a dozen platinums in the same time. And truthfully, I asked myself that question more than once while in the thick of it. I think the answer is that after years of trophy hunting, a hundred platinums, and a profile longer than I ever expected, that trophies had become too much of an instant gratification. It was too easy to earn too many. I was choosing games because I knew I could complete them.

 

This time, things were different. A lot (a LOT) of time and was required for only a handful of trophies. It was a different kind of challenge - a war of attrition against myself. Something that wouldn't come easy. I stuck with it and learned a lesson. Most things you work for are worth it, even if it's just worth it to you. 

 

On my profile page, just under the name of the game, in very small text, it says "Completed in 4 years, 10 months". That's a long time to take to finish anything, let alone a game. As I sit now and reflect on this remarkable accomplishment, I struggle to decide if I am crazy for doing it, simply too stubborn to let it go unfinished, or just determined enough to get it done. Maybe all three.

Congrats and very well done, You have more determination than I do. If I make myself do it I have a couple games that will chime in at 4 years plus.

Way to go . That is how I felt after platting Resistance 2. That closing servers timer really pushed me to finish it.

There's nothing like the impending closure of servers to pull a game from the backlog to the get it

done now list. This was a fun game that got stuffed away because I have too many games and

not enough time to play them all. Thanks to the servers going down I got it done with some time to spare.

Killzone: Mercenary

Platinum

Been a while since I've had a chance to post here. I'm really disappointed about not getting a plat for April too. The damn Blood Bank trophy turned out to be too much grinding for me to finish it on time. Oh well.
Mercs turned out to be a really good game. Four plus play throughs without the ability to skip cutscenes got really old and there's also the Blood Bank trophy that requires you to grind out about 5k kills after you've completed every other trophy in the game. Be prepared for some needless grinding if you're after the plat.

#78 Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time

Mask and Stripes Forever
Collect every bronze, silver and gold trophy.

I had quite a bit of fun with this, especially as the PS3 really lacks in good platforming games. This is the first game in the Sly series I've played so I can't compare to previous ones, but certainly the game is far too easy with zero challenge. Decent enough but not quite sure it was quite worth the close to 40gb I had to free up to download it.

Fun awesome game, easy plat, only thing i had trouble with was the Ninja Jack trophy,  got the game from the Ubisoft sale so for anyone who likes the Farcry series,it is a must play

Finally pulled my finger out and got this one whilst on honeymoon (don't worry, the new wife was sleeping!).  I used PowerPyx's YouTube video guide whilst on my Crushing playthrough to get all the missing collectibles, then mopped up the last few.

 

I also got:

 

 Intelligent Being

 

All I had to do was get a few more street smart stars to get this one.  Travelling on the way to my honeymoon meant that I passed through enough towns and cities and picked up enough street smart challenges to finish it off.

 #53 COD: World at War & 100%

I bought this game when it first came out back in 2009 and was not the biggest fan of it. I enjoyed the Zombies gameplay alot. Decided to pick this game up again in January of this year after some buddies decided they were going to go after the Zombies DLC trophies. Very happy I decided to tag along. The Zombies mode was just as fun as I remembered it being and I had a blast playing it with my friends. Now onto the SP campaign.. Overall the campaign is very straightforward with a decent story and excellent gameplay. The trophies are rather simple to earn especially with only one collectible trophy ( Death cards ) and thankfully there are only 16 of them  . Then there is the Veteran playthrough of the campaign... Honestly it is not as bad as everyone makes it out be. Yes there are a TON of grenades that get thrown at you sometimes from seems like nobody, BUT all you have to do is keep moving to avoid them plain and simple. This game does not allow camping with the infinite spawn either so again to avoid getting bogged down by infinite spawn, you gotta keep moving. The enemies on Veteran take maybe 1-2 more bullets to drop than they do on Normal, so they are not that tough they just have endless grenades and you have little health ( 3 bullets and your dead on veteran ). The level I had the most difficulty with was 'Relentless' otherwise I didnt spend more than an hour or 2 on any other levels and managed to beat 'Blowtorch and Corkscrew' on my first try! I highly recommend this game to any COD fans out there as it is definitely one of the best ones they made. 

 

A HUGE SHOUTOUT goes to DaftProphet and hwnruus for helping with the Zombies trophies! And a MONSTER SHOUTOUT goes to ChaoticDoomofBob for all his help with the Zombies trophies, You my friend are a Master at this game!

 

Platinum Difficulty 7/10 - I can see how veteran mode can break some gamers

I really enjoyed this one. The combat system was brilliant. Very nice twist on the Arkham series combat style, with extra tactics, almost in an RPG way. Easy and enjoyable platinum, getting all the collectibles and combat related stuff. Only problem was you couldn't skip cut scenes and if you missed anything, had to go through an entire episode to get to where you need to be (no level checkpoint loads from episode select). Also, hard mode was a pain at times.
