StewartBros Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 METAL GEAR SOLID 4 The Legendary Hero Obtained all trophies. Finally knuckled down to this game after owning it for 8 years, playing it numerous times before the trophy patch, and holding off on it until it could become my 100th platinum. Extremely proud of finally nailing this one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldor2K2 Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I only had 13 platinums in 2016, so I will have to say the platinum for Atelier Meruru Plus takes the prize. This was by far my most difficult platinum of the year, so I guess it only makes sense to call it my proudest. I had never played any of these games, and I guess I picked the wrong one to start with. It took me a few months to even figure out what I was doing, and I finally got the hang of it. I had the best everything I could make at the time, and even beat one of the hardest bosses in the game. Then came the original Meruru DLC optional now mandatory super bosses. Even with the best equipment, they totally destroyed me. No matter what I did I could never beat the first one to have a shot to get some ingredients to make potential game breaking equipment. I was ready to give up and accept the fact that I was never going to platinum this game. I kept at it and it was such a relieving feeling when I first beat him. To my dismay all the bosses respawn when you leave, but I knew I could finally win although probably not every time, and I was finally able to beat all those bosses for the platinum.

Venocide Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I think mine would have to be Tales of Graces f. When I first played the game I really sucked at it, so much so that I had to lower the difficulty to easy. Now I have the platinum, something I never thought I'd achieve.

You should try the previous two Atelier games, Rorona and Totori, they're really good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
innocentinstinct Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Out of my 16 platinums, I earned 14 last year and I would say Shadow of the Colossus is probably the one I'm most proud of. Gaius and Argus on HTA are redonkulous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarSideOfSaturn Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 I can't decide between Gran Turismo 6 or Skyrim (PS3), so I'll go for both equally. Gran Turismo 6 because I'm terrible at racing games and driving in general so GT took a lot of persistence to plat. Especially the S-Class licence tests, the amount of times I posted laps just milliseconds off the target time for a gold medal on tests four and five I'm not sure if I gained any sort of skill in the end, or if I simply tried so many times that eventually I got lucky. And Skyrim, again for the persistence. I stupidly decided to start going for the plat on a 1300 hour savefile, got some ways into it then found it'd be impossible because I'd murdered the Dark Brotherhoods leader and sold my Thieves Guild armour. I cleared those two of their respective trophies the next time round, then started on the Daedric Artifact quests, got 14 out of 15 and...discovered the quest giver for my final quest (Hulda) had died Finally got it on the third attempt. Despite the endless fails on both games, I didn't mind. I thoroughly enjoyed every second I played them, which is why I went for the platinums in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilseb93 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Easily Silent Hill 2. And I ironically did it the first week of 2016 during my winter break. It's an ultra rare platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xKrAzY_8sx Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I only platinumed 5 games in 2016. My proudest was Bloodborne. Those chalice dungeons are such a huge pain. I wanted to quit many times. Especially that defiled chalice. Half health was such a hinderance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirEricLPer Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Definitley the Overwatch Platinum. People that play the game know that Rapid Discord and The Floor is Lava are highly luck-dependand but I still enjoyed every minute of my Platinum Journey for Overwatch.

PreLoki Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Hmm, probably SUPER MONKEY BALL BANANA SPLITZ really fun game, but wasn't that hard IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeitgeist-9 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) To me BioShock 2 and Grid 2, both were hard to be unlocked because of the multiplayer, on BioShock 2 were very few player when I was on the road to the platinum, and a lot of the players I from that moment were cheaters, they appeared and disappeared, or when you took them by surprise, at the first attack, you appears on a different place, or the game became slow when you are in an advantage zone, between others; about Grid 2, the rivals respective trophy was a pain, and when I asked here, certain moderator locked vilely my post that I made to know if I could find some players that were looking for that trophy and/or the other online trophies that will play at the same hour I use to play the game and then proceed to create the gaming session, but that person locked it even when I tried to explain it and want his explanation, that was the second time he did it (He was Stevieboy), that made me feel very angry, because I was asking for a help, I wasn't doing bad use from it or making a game session (as he said), but that guy was only blocking the chance to find a help, fortunately, I could find a help time later via PSN, but that give me a question, what does this page serves if a moderator like Stevieboy locks your posts vilely?. Getting back to the theme from this post, BioShock 2 and Grid 2 were my proudest platinums because I could unlock them after a long time, I hope to try too TR Platinum this year Edited January 4, 2017 by Zeitgeist-9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyro Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Fallout 4 or Final Fantasy XV. Not because they were easy to get, but because they were the 2 games I enjoyed the most of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful84 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) Definitely this: Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Perfectionist Awarded all trophies. I spent 3 months playing through this and had a blast! KOA is definitely one of the best open world RPGs that I've played so far and its a shame that its developer went under. In a very close second: Assassin's Creed Liberation HD Platinum Trophy Collect all other 30 Trophies for this Trophy The game was ok but nothing phenomenal. For me, it's more about this being my 50th platinum,1st in the Assassin's Creed series, and I got it on Christmas!

Outcast2014 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Well, not a platinum but very proud of Kitten squad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamageDKami Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Guitar Hero Live Under 1% of the people on the site have it unlocked, so it is a really rare one. It also took ages to get, but well worth it. I've always enjoyed the rhythm games, but doing the 1 million strums was almost too much. There are crashes now that might wipe your progress on it, so good luck to anyone that still wants to go for it! Thankfully for me that crash hit me when I already got the trophy...

Kingphisher_IX Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Out of the platinum trophies I obtained in 2016 I would have to say that there are two which I am very proud of: (Demon Souls) The first would have to be Demon Souls. This is a game that I had so much fun playing and working towards to the platinum. A majority of the time I kept getting my ass kicked by the enemies leading up to the bosses and black phantoms as opposed to the bosses themselves. Overall, it was a fun and somewhat challenging game. There are people that have opinions that "this is a very hard game" or "this is a very easy game", and if they find it that way then that is fine, however, I am proud of this platinum. Especially since I got lucky to get the Pure Bladestone in only a few hours as opposed to people complaining that it took them days and weeks and still haven't found the Pure Bladestone. The grind for it was totally worth for the platinum. (Samurai Warriors 4) The second would have to be Samurai Warriors 4. This is probably not a very popular game in the western world, but it one of my favourite titles (along with Dynasty Warriors). The first 50-60 hours of this game can be very fun but it will fall off towards the end when you just have to obtain cleanup trophies like unlocking all objectives and playing as every available officer, which becomes boring, but nonetheless, I made the grind and obtained the platinum. The grind is hard and one that requires you to push through because it can get really boring repeating the same battle(s) over and over trying to get 100% in this game. At the end of the day, I really enjoyed the game and am proud that I stuck through to the end and achieved the platinum trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaehyun1009 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Tough choice between OlliOlli2 and GTA V. I'll go with former because it took a lot of skill and patience to pull off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkSoleride Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning defiantly that Green Thumb trophy was a pain since there is no way of tracking the items you have harvested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icebrand1270 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 My proudest Platinum of 2016 is Adventures of Mana, since it was Platinum 100. A huge thank-you to Square Enix for making a 36-year-old man feel like an 11-year-old boy all over again. A game that held a special place in my heart as Final Fantasy Adventure in 1991, it holds an even bigger place now as Platinum 100. A close second is Don Bradman Cricket 14 (PS3). Second in rarity (2.83%) only to my MLB 14 The Show (PS3) Platinum (2.79), it has only 44 achievers. Only 8 of them are American. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giulian_Steel Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Dark Souls. Who was the first Platinum of the year. Decided to start from scratch and from the NG+ forwards a malfunction on R3 turned the campaign upside-down. But i managed, what a ride that was. For second, would say J-Stars Victory Vs+. Fun game and too much grinding on Victory Road mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glacier_Silver Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Ratchet and Clank.... Wow after looking at last years progress that was sad only 4 platinums. I must do better this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
