Popular Post PrestonCoIe Posted January 24, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) Welcome to PrestonCoIe's Platinum Art Exhibit. I began platinum trophy hunting recently in 2015 after getting inspired by my friend and he showing me this forum. I achieved 5 platinums in 2015, and plan to do about 5-7 platinums in 2016. My showcase would be quite different, because I would be using edited screenshots to represent the trophies instead of showing the game and the platinum trophy picture. Since the PS4 automatically takes a screenshot when you get a trophy, most of the times the screenshots for platinums are not really nice. So what I did was take screenshots throughout cutscenes (including auto trophy screenshots) and find an appropriate picture for the platinum trophy. I then do some editing of both pictures to make the final product - A cool screenshot to go with the platinum trophy name. Platinum Trophies in 2015 Grand Theft Auto V (PS4) Far Cry 4 Battlefield Hardline The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition Platinum Trophies in 2016 Dishonored Definitive Edition Grand Theft Auto V (PS3) Hitman: Absolution Saints Row IV: Re-Elected Tom Clancy's The Division Saints Row: Gat out of Hell Mafia II Hitman GO: Definitive Edition Saints Row: The Third Watch Dogs Mafia III Battlefield 3 Platinum Trophies that I plan to achieve Just Cause 3 Watch Dogs 2 Dishonored 2 Skyrim: Special Edition COD: Modern Warfare Remastered COD: Modern Warfare 2 COD: Modern Warfare 3 PLATINUM ART EXHIBIT #1 Los Santos Legend Grand Theft Auto V (PS4) Platinum: 5 Sept 2015 100%: 24 Jan 2016 My first and proudest platinum and 100% completion. Very challenging which requires hard work, teamwork and patience. Shout out to my GTA V crew at Mulah Gang for helping out on all the online trophies, especially heists. #2 Master of Kyrat Far Cry 4 (PS4) Platinum: 11 Sept 2015 100%: 15 June 2016 Fairly easy platinum to achieve. Have already purchased Valley of the Yetis DLC and plan to get 100% soon. #3 Platinum TrophyBattlefield Hardline (PS4)Platinum: 14 Oct 2015100%: No plans Campaign was easy, but the few multiplayer trophies took awhile. Shout out to UncleBobbyDied for Menz in the Hood trophy.No plans to get 100% as I am a really terrible FPS player (I seldom get more than 10 kills per match, while deaths are always above 20). #4 The Limits of the Possible The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Platinum: 12 Nov 2015 100%: 3 July 2016 Was quite challenging at first as I started with Death March difficulty and kept on dying at initial stages, but started getting better as gears and skills were upgraded, as well as getting used to the combat style. Requires a lot of planning and choosing the right dialogues especially for Card Collector and Full Crew trophies. One of the best open world games I ever played. #5 Hong Kong Legend Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition Platinum: 26 Dec 2015 100%: 28 Dec 2015 Simple and enjoyable platinum to achieve. Had to play this since I'm an Asian boy. Favorite song for the game is "No Brothers" by 24Herbs. #6 Platinum Blades and Dark Corners Dishonored Definitive Edition Platinum: 11 Jan 2016 100%: No plans I love stealth games and Dishonored is one of my favorites. Platinum was quite easy, but DLCs are reasonably challenging. Completed The Knife of Dunwall and The Brigmore Witches DLCs, but Dunwall City Trials DLC might take a long time. #7 Los Santos Legend Grand Theft Auto V (PS3) Platinum: 21 Mar 2016 100%: No plans GTA V was the first game I got for PS3. Took 2 years and 6 months as I wasn't a trophy hunter when I started, but still finally managed to platinum it. Also wanted this trophy for #500 on the Trophy Log. #8 Top of Your Game Hitman: Absolution Platinum: 28 Mar 2016 Hitman: Absolution is the 5th installment of the Hitman series. Hitman's main character is Agent 47. Therefore, the platinum trophy for the game fits Trophy Log #547. #9 Kingpin Saints Row IV: Re-Elected Platinum: 2 Apr 2016 100%: 2 Apr 2016 Simple and enjoyable open-world game to play. Just pissed off because of the "Where's My Cape" trophy glitch which I had to replay the game twice. #10 Platinum Agent Tom Clancy's The Division Platinum: 29 Apr 2016 Platinum Agent sounded cool for my 10th platinum, also not bad for trophy log #616. Totally unrelated, but the date I got the platinum, the trophy log and the platinum image are in reference to rapper Drake's new album, VIEWS. 29 Apr 2016 - Release date of VIEWS Trophy Log #616 - The number 6 is prominently mentioned several times in his songs, referring to Toronto's area code. Platinum Screenshot at Times Square - Times Square is one of the most iconic views in New York City, hence VIEWS. #11 Scorched Savior Saints Row: Gat Out of Hell Platinum: 21 June 2016 Easy but annoying platinum. But I had to grind this game solely for the trophy 'The King of Hell', which is number #666 on my trophy log. #12 Platinum Trophy Mafia II Platinum: 11 July 2016 100%: No plans Played this game in anticipation of Mafia III coming this October. The trophy 'Ladies' Man' is #696 (if you know what I mean), and the platinum is #700. #13 Agent 47 Hitman GO: Definitive Edition Platinum: 17 July 2016 Played this game for the sake of the platinum trophy - Agent 47. Trophy log #747. #14 Kingpin Saints Row: The Third Platinum: 24 July 2016 100%: 18 September 2016 In my opinion, Saints Row: The Third is the best title in the Saints Row franchise. #15 100% Clear Watch Dogs (PS4) Platinum: 21 October 2016 100%: Once trophy log frees up Been wanting to play this game since it was announced in 2012. Enjoyable game with a good story, just that the trophy 'Disk Space Full' made me walk around Chi-Town aimlessly looking for the last song for this trophy. #16 Let the Good Times Roll Mafia III Platinum: 15 November 2016 I have always enjoyed the Mafia series, although I feel that Mafia III was quite repetitive. It has a good story and ending though. The platinum for this game is #946 in my trophy log, which pays tribute to American singer Louis Jordan (1908 - 1975) who recorded the song 'Let the Good Times Roll' with his band Tympany Five in 1946. #17 Platinum Trophy Battlefield 3 Platinum: 28 November 2016 100%: No plans Significantly challenging first-person-shooter which deserves an ultra-rare platinum and a significant milestone of #1,000 on my trophy log.

hore Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) Very creative idea with editing the screenshots; that's a skill I'd love to have. I always try pretty hard to ensure my platinum auto-screenshot is something remarkable, which is very hard to do. What program & tools do you use for that? I'd love some tips. Anyway, I'm fairly impressed; these are some impressive platinums for a first-year trophy hunter -- I'd usually expect easy ones like TWD or The Order 1886. Here's to a fruitful 2016. I definitely think you can surpass your expectation of 7 platinums for 2016, by the way. Edited January 24, 2016 by GIONAScm2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tools are quite simple and basic - I just use Microsoft PowerPoint on PC to move, position and crop the pictures. I then use the VSCO app on the iPhone to enhance the picture's clarity, brightness, etc (like Instagram). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLamb121 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 That's really cool! And definitely something I couldn't do! Good luck on your goal - I bet you'll be able to get it, no problem. I also didn't know about that screenshot thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetectiveCJ Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 How do you get those screenshots? I know there is a Share button to upload Screenshots to your Facebook page but I never figured out how to use it. I'd love to show off my PS4 platinum screenshots! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically when you play games there will be cutscenes. From there, you can take screenshots using the PS4 share button. Upload them on your Facebook page, then after that you can link (using BB code) the pictures from FB to here. For me, I will do some editing of the screenshots to make them look nice. Good luck!

danceswithsloths Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 (edited) Very cool screenshots, wish some of mine looked this good. I have some good ones but i also have some ones that i paused on accident and stuff. I didn't know the PS3 also took screenshots of trophies, i hope this applies to the PSnow trophies as well.

Thanks. Nope not all PS3 games support screenshot. Actually some of them I just take from game cutscenes shown on YouTube then I just edit the photos.
