The Great Australian Trophy Hunt - Season 1


Recommended Posts

Snuck in 3rd motorbike plat for the month, wil never do that again. Looking forward to no racing games next month. Still managed to catchup on lots of podcasts so not all bad :)

For those interested in these types of games would rank them as

1. Driveclub bikes - plays the fastest, largest array of tracks ( all fictional though ), decent bike roster and good variety of events, somewhat grindy towards end game

2. Valentino Rossi - lots of content MotoGP / flat track / rally ), full bike roster, average load times, useless exp reward system, exceptionally grindy at end with miles

3. Ducati - piece of shit - basically full priced DLC for Ride, same graphics, same horrendous load times, reduced bike roster, boredom from completing all races will test your sanity. It's cheaper and more enjoyable to buy a hammer and repeatedly whack yourself in head

Saturday, only had time to pop one, .... damn shiftwork, lol

 

Well happy belated birthday! :)

 

I'm grinding out my 3rd motorcycle game plat for this month ...... Trust me optimism is low on the ground ..... Heck the will to keep living is fading :)

 

Wow CJ, that never ending quest for bronze trophies is no joke huh!?

 

Well, my friend bought me a copy of Tom Clancy's The Division, which rescued another otherwise pitiful month, since it got me 43 trophies over the last week or so.

 

Got the last trophy (Tombstone) I needed in Battlefield 4 for Platinum #8. Long time coming, that one. Pretty much the only highlight for me.

 

Congratulations on the Battlefield 4 platinum IronMask!

As best as I can tell, Division rescued the month for me and I ended up at lease close-ish to my 83 per month target. The same friend that bought me The Division also dropped around Battleborn yesterday afternoon and I got 7 sneaky trophies in that before midnight.

 

Total trophies 59 - 1 Plat, 2 Gold, 7 Silver, 49 Bronze.

 

I need to lift my game for the second half of the year. I should already be at 1,500 trophies by now if I want to hit 2,000 by the end of the year, but I'm only at 1,306, so I'm nearly 200 behind schedule. Looks like I might have to crack out the Telltale Collection... :P

 

I have some other "gimme's" to fall back on, like Nubla, Hitman GO: Definitive Edition and Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power for some easy completions, but the better news is that I bought a refurbished PS3 from EB Games yesterday so I could work on some long-time uncompleted games and while I can't exactly play 2 consoles at once, I now have access to an enormous 500+ game backlog dating back 7 years B)

Ahh Nubla ....... There is a shameful plat I'm quite proud of.

Good news Re the PS3 Iron, let us know how you go / what your working through especially if you need to boost anything, as I am slowly trying to work through some backlog PS3 too.

 

Thanks mate. Now I just have to replace the original 40GB HDD in my old PS3 and send it away to get re-balled. Wouldn't have bothered but there's a heap of saved replay data I don't want to lose if I can avoid it.

 

As for games, I've pretty much got every game from PS Plus+ from the last 5 or 6 years, mostly unplayed, though am starting with LittleBigPlanet Karting as the servers close on Aug 31.

Good to see that Valentino Rossi the game isn't too bad cause I really want to buy that. He's my absolute favourite rider.

127 bronze ....... The bar has been set :)

 

Do you feel threatened by the challenge that has been thrown down by Lightning?

Surely you don't own 500 games!?

 

 

I have started doing the update, I'm about halfway through at the moment and expect to have all the stats posted on Sunday. Once everything has been put up I'll give you guys a few days to get your votes for MVP in.

Well, I didn't even get close to platinuming Skylanders: Giants. :lol: Fingers crossed July is a better month since 54 trophies for June is pretty poor form.

I'd be looking to go boost some older PS3 multiplayer if you guys are as well. Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Revelations, AC3 and Black Flag all come to mind. I probably have a bunch of others on my shelf and from PS Plus too that I'm overlooking.

Some time late last year I began going through my PSN "download" list on the PS store (all 83 63 pages of it at the time), sorting the games from the themes, avatars and DLCs. Now, assuming I didn't miss any, including 6 years of free PS Plus+ games, Minis, PS One/2 Classics, the handful of physical PS3 retail titles I own (about 20), physical PS4 titles (about 40), the spreadsheet I ended up compiling has 475 unique entries. I just checked and 30 of those are PSP/Minis/Classics or PS3 games that don't have trophy lists, so yes, you are correct, I don't quite have 500 games, but if Plus+ has anything to do with it, I will have by the end of the year ;)

 

EDIT: I just went though the list again and found Wasteland 2, World of Tanks, Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition, Nom Nom Galaxy, Plants Vs. Zombies, Crysis 3 that I had somehow missed and a retail copy of Diablo III (non-RoS) I had forgotten.
