#113: Mantis Burn Racing

Unlock all MBR trophies

 

Enjoyment: 6 / 10

Difficulty: 2 / 10

 

For those who don't know MBR: It's a fun racer that tries to please the crowd who enjoys RC-racers like Motorstorm RC. At least what I thought at first as the cars looked like RC-cars but after playing through the game it more seems like they are normal sized-cars and the only connection to RC-racers like the already mentioned Motorstorm RC or the glorious Micro Machines and R.C. Pro-Am-series is the top-down view.

The game has a nice selection of different race types you can do while playing through the seven different seasons. The only problem is that only the selection of race types is diversitve. There were only eight tracks (IIRC) in two different locations (some sandy mountain and a rather bland city) and only nine different vehicles that belong to the three racing classes amateur, pro and veteran (and for each of these classes one vehicle was a light-weight one, one medium-weight and one heavy-weight one).  It's not the best variety but still a decent one to live with. The biggest problem of this game was definetely the music. After playing ~150 races I was fed up of those below-average electro music the game had.  There were only three or four different music tracks? At least it felt like this and I was happy when I finally reached level 50.

 

Trophy-wise the game is really easy. Surprisingly you get most of the trophies after completing the first three seasons (the amateur ones) with only some spare trophies left for the rest of the game. The online trophies are rather easy to do as the 15 online wins can be boosted in sessions where you solely race against bots. But even when I raced against some other people (which barely happened) it was easy to pull off a win as the other players are surprisingly bad. Even players on level 45 (you have to play about 15 hours to reach that level!) was easy to surpass.  oO People, could you at least try to aim for the win? This way it's no fun at all. :\

The trophies for winning against a player with 15 or 25 levels above my own where also easy to earn, but solely for the fact that it seems like the trophy description is wrong as I earned the trophies when I won against some people on level 21, respective 32 while being level 25 on my own. And as math says 21 - 25 and 32 - 25 are less than 15 or 25.

 

Overall I would say it's a decent game. I'm glad that I got it for the sale price of 50% off as the normal price of 15 euros would have been too high.

ZOMBI

 

Zombi was a complete "meh" game for me. By the time of my 3rd playthrough it had turned into a "ugh...when will this be over with" type of game. The difficulty trophies don't stack which means you have to play the game 3 times for the platinum. Unfortunately, each difficulty plays pretty much the same so it becomes rather boring and repetitive by the third time. Items didn't seem to be more scarce between difficulties and the only noticeable difference was that zombies took a few more hits to kill. This just made each kill drag on a little longer but didn't really make it any harder. On Survivor difficulty you are supposed to get a game over and have to start over with each death but if you use back-up saves, that is eliminated and it pretty much becomes the same as the other playthroughs. Speaking of dying, the one concept that was kind of interesting was that the game used a system similar to roguelike or Souls type games where each time you die you'll start with a new character and have to try re-acquiring your gear by finding the corpse of your last survivor. Unfortunately, I didn't die nearly enough to add any tension or drama and the fact that you are just playing as a random character who doesn't speak means there isn't much of a story in the game.

 

Considering this was a launch game for the WiiU, I'm trying not to bash it too much but the graphics already look dated and kind of bland. Most of the game looks like an early PS3 title and there are even some parts that feel like a PS2 port or remaster. I get that this is a survival horror game so most of the game is going to be dark and use things like fog to set the atmosphere, but unfortunately this just makes it look like a blurry blob at times. Other games have shown that it's possible to use those effects and still be a nice looking game. That's not the case with ZOMBI. 

 

This will probably be my last platinum of 2016 so at least I ended the year with a shiny new UR.  Though it's only that rare due to being on PS+ and if you use back-up saves I would rate the difficulty around a 3/10. The biggest obstacle in obtaining the platinum is probably boredom rather than any difficulty. If you are in the mood for smashing some zombie skulls, an alright survival horror game and got this from PS+ it might be worth checking out at least. Not sure if I could recommend actually buying it though.

If Devil may Cry hunts demons then Bayonetta hunts devils! Very enjoyable game for me as I am always a fan of hack n slash games. Whenever I played this I always think that I am playing as Dante because Bayonetta is also a joker and doesn't always show her emotional mood. Her taunts are funny and sexual too as she is a very interesting character.

 

In Bayonetta, you can do execute torture attacks with a full magic bar to deal massive damage or insta-kill them. Also this game has one of the hottest boss fights ever because of those climax attacks 

 

Spoiler

 

The game is pretty easy if you know which upgrades to get first and equipment to use on situations. Moon of Mahaa-Khalaa made infinite climax mode so easy if you timed your guards right.

 

Some enemies here really peaked my interest especially those Joys and the end game boss.

Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor - Game of the Year Edition

Fantastic game, really regret not being able to play it until December this year. Someone else, started the game, on my profile last year, and it's been sitting on my PSN, almost nagging me to go and finish it XD.

Platinum 107

Clockwork Tales: Of Glass and Ink (PS4)

12/1/2016

Got this one at the beginning of the month (as you can see) but I had yet to post it due to health issues. I therefore figured that it would be best to put it together with my other December Plat. Hopefully you fine folks on the staff won't mind.

Anyway, this is your standard point-and-click game with a steampunk setting. A professor, a spy and a mechanical bird team up to stop a terrorist with a "Tremor Machine". The graphics are simple but nice, almost resembling a painting. It is priced just right at 10 dollars for a short digital-only point-and-click game.

The trophies are primarily plot-related but there are a few related to collectibles, so find a good online walkthrough so you don't miss anything. Also, play on Expert so you can get both difficulty trophies in a single playthrough (all you get are fewer hints). All in all, a good choice for a quick Plat as I did this in roughly 16 and a half hours. (And another 1st 50 to Platinum... Nice.) If I didn't have things to do and sleep to catch up with, it may have been less than 8 hours. Guess I'll never know for sure.

 

Platinum 108

Rocket League (PS4)

12/18/2016

Now, on to today's Platinum triumph!

Rocket League made quite the splash over the summer of 2015, and the soccer game with RC cars practically needs no introduction. As a PS+ game on the PS4 side of the ball (no pun intended), hundreds of thousands (if not more) play this in some capacity. it's also well-known that developer/publisher Psyonix stated that they would sign on to the PS4/XB1 "cross-online" dream.

All history lessons aside, I confess that I assumed that there was too much hype and not enough substance... until I played it. The reason was that I played this game's PS3 "forerunner", SARPBC, and found it to be anything but impressive. Thankfully, I was proven wrong from the word go and saw the improvement in every aspect of gameplay. For me, this game was tougher than most people but I won the Season Championship... eventually. I got some help with Barras Bravas from a kind soul and then it was off to the dreaded 50KM trophy (Far, Far Away...). Fortunately, I'm better at grinding trophies than most gamers (must be due to all those RPGs from my childhood) so it only took a day or so to put the finishing touches on Platinum 108!

 

And so, 36 Platinum Trophies on the year for me, with 11 of these 12 months being with 2 or more Platinums, and 19 consecutive months with a Platinum! A "career year" for me, if I dare use such a term for a hobby! Christmas comes early for me... and perhaps more of this gift to... myself? We shall see!

I really enjoyed this game, being a fan of the series.

A piece of advice: Hard isn't THAT HARD. I saved as many bullets as possible. After several tries I managed to kill the first 2 bosses with knife only, and later realized that it was in vain. Later in the game I started shooting like crazy and still I finished the game with 70 spare shotgun shells and 100+ bullets for the pistol. Just try to avoid unnecessary fights and you'll be fine. As for Ink Ribbon, I saved 19 times and had 12 ink ribbons left, so saving often is not a problem at all. You'll find 3 pieces of ink ribbon next to most typewriters (I can only recall 1 particular typewritter that only had 1 piece of ink ribbon next to it)

 #30 - Zero Time Dilemma

 

 

Enjoyment: 8/10

Difficulty: 2/10

 

I forgot to add this one to the thread when I finished it up a number of months ago.  While this entry suffered a little from hyped up expectations and having less room to build on the insane twists of the first two games, it still remains a very good entry and a solid finale to the series as a whole.  The movie-based style definitely took some getting used to as did the fragmented chain of stories, but I think it worked out just fine.  I don't really want to get into details too much for risk of spoilers, but if you liked the first two games, it's definitely worth seeing things though to the end.

 

 #31 - Steins;Gate 0

 

 

Enjoyment: 9/10

Difficulty: 1/10

 

Similar to above, it's really hard to say much about this without getting into spoiler territory.  If you enjoyed Steins;Gate, you will almost certainly enjoy Steins;Gate 0.  The story here does a very good job of being more of what fans want without feeling like more of the same.  This is mostly achieved through a strong tonal difference compared to Steins;Gate.  While I think the original stands alone and is one of the best (if not the best) visual novel games out there, this entry is well worth your time if you want to spend more time with old characters or meet similarly well developed and important new characters.  El Psy Kongroo.

Love it, not as much as the main franchise, but still a good solid title. Although it was a little short. Nothing much to say about it. Final boss was a bit difficult (only the first part). I played this a lot of time ago but, surprisingly I did not remember ANYTHING.

Good Dragon Ball game,better than the first one with way more to do, more techniques, more characters, more everything! A bit grindy (to get the awoken skills) but still fun to replay. Now I'm going back to the hyperbolic time chamber to train!

 #18 : Rise of the Tomb Raider

 

 

I really liked the story, the gameplay and the lack of multiplayer trophies. Doing the game in survivor difficulty isn't really hard and there is a lot of checkpoints  

The only downside for me was to replay all the missions in score attack, not really fun and really boring. Except the trophy for all score attack in gold, other trophies are easy and hopefully I didn't get any bugs.

 # 17 - The Last of Us Remastered

It can't be for nothing

 

Difficulty: 8/10

Enjoyment: 10/10

 

This was I believe my first ever game that I bought (together with Until Dawn), and it is easily still the best game I have.

It took me nearly a year to get myself to play the multiplayer of this game for the last remaining trophies. I kept postponing these trophies because I have zero experience in multiplayer shooters which kept me thinking that it would be too much for me. After finally giving it a try, it turned out to be actually quite fun! I was nothing like some of the other players, especially at the beginning, but I feel like I did my fair share. For anyone still needing the multiplayer trophies; these turned out to be easily obtainable for even the worst players, so don't let that stop you

WRC 5

 

This game is the worst racing game I've ever played, it has many bugs, glitches, the cars and stages looks very bad and the driving experience is not as it should, it feels more like if you were driving a big truck (the acceleration is very slow, the cars uses to brake using a very long distance from the place you should steer, the car don't steer very well, you should start to drift even more than in some other racing or rally games to take the best as possible even the easiest turns, also you cannot connect more than one drifting turn), the cars also use to be very fragile [sometimes you receive damage without any reason], some of the cars are hard to be driven with the interior cam (I use to play the games with that camera configuration) and the windscreen wipers doesn't work on rainy stages, snowy stages or when the windscreen is very dirty.

Also, the only way to earn the platinum was giving up on every stage from Quick Stage mode, playing it looking for the victories, didn't unlocked 2 related trophies

#148 - Livelock

 

 

 

Fun and short Dead Nation clone. Campaign lasts around 6 hours, if you take time to explore. Has some minor grinding to be done for the plat and is overall a good game with a few issues. The hit-detection of some enemies seems off, even when you're clearly not in range of their melee, it still hits you. The main gripe I had though was the mission setup. You can't get to the loadout screen before entering the next mission, instead you have to back out to it, which adds a loading screen everytime you want change things around. The voice acting was also kind of weird.

#40 - NORN9 Var Commons

 

The true ending for the game was probably my favorite next to Ron's. However, some of the story lines were weak and predictable and the Norn9 quest was a bore. Slightly disappointed with this VN and I hope it's sequel is better.
