Spoiler

I'm like the bad guy or something? I don't know.

 

I am like 3 checkpoints away from platinuming the Bureau, although they are 3 very hard checkpoints so that might take a little bit of time. I started Until Dawn, got about an hour and a half in, paused the game hit the wrong buttons and accidentally wiped my progress. I think I might come back to that a bit later. Instead I am going to add a few more games:

 

17. Save the Ninja Clan (PS4) - 18% (started this game yesterday, its like super Mario Brothers with ninjas)

18. The Silver Case (PS4) - 0%

We're midway through October, so about half the time for this Backlog Challenge is over. Here's my next update:

 

1. Kingdom Hearts Final Mix (PS3) 0% [0/56]
2. Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories (PS3) 3% [2/48]
3. Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3) 8% [5/32]
4. LEGO The Lord of the Rings (PS3) 16% [11/49]
5. Diablo III (PS3) 30% [17/46]
6. Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando (PS3) 67% → 70% [30/35]
7. Final Fantasy X HD (PS3/Vita) 9% [5/34]
8. MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death (Vita) 4% [3/37]
9. LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens (PS3) 0% [0/70 including DLC]
10. Day of the Tentacle Remastered (Vita) 0% [0/58]
11. Color Guardians (Vita) 25% → 100% [all 46 trophies]
12. Type:Rider (Vita) 100% [all 12 trophies]
13. Severed (Vita) 0% → 3% [2/25]
14. LEGO Batman 2 (Vita) 100% [all 32 trophies]

Cleaned up Color Guardians yesterday. Was a fun game to play and the ending had quite a surprise in it Next up for me is Severed - interesting game with a easy to understand combat mechanism and lots of things to puzzle. In Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando I was wondering which Platinum Bolt I missed; when I counted that out, I always ended at 39, although 40 are needed for the trophy. Then it hit me when I did some looking up with a guide: There are three (!) races where one has to fly through all the rings. One of these races got beaten by me and I farmed some Raritanium to fully upgrade Ratchet's ship. Now just the Impossible Challenge, two Platinum Bolts, five Skill Points and upgrading all weapons from the 2nd game to MAX are left. I really hope to get this game wiped to plat by the end of this month...

1. Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair - 
2. Danganronpa: Ultra Despair Girls (0%)
3. Final Fantasy Type-0 (0 to 16%)
4. Dragon Quest Builders (3%)
5. Unravel - 
6. The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel 2 - 
7. The Awakened Fate Ultimatum (11%)
8. Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (0%)
9. Tales of Zestiria (12%)
10. Time and Eternity (5%) - I think

Started playing Final Fantasy Type-0. I like it so far, even though I don't completely understand the battle system. My favorite is Ace, and that's because I can dodge and shoot cards without getting hit. I might have to change it up in the next few chapters though.

Tearaway Unfolded - 31%

Pyre - 14%

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - 8%

Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy - 100% 
Oceanhorn - 4%

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 100% 

Child of Light - 38%

 

Bit of a slow week for me in terms of this challenge - progressed a little bit more on Child of Light but have also been distracted by Hue, Sky Force Anniversary and Assassin's Cress II.

Completed Hue and ACII - had "In Memory of Petruccio" glitch on me for my first playthrough so was just a on feather collecting run. Hue was good, I really enjoyed the puzzles although some of the collectibles were a bit stupid.

 

Need to knuckle back down to at least finish the Vita titles on my list and a minimum of one from the PS4.

[Fanatixa1]

Last couple of weeks I didn't have to much time for gaming. Still no platinum trophies but this week I will finish up some games because I'm having the week off ?

 

I did did make some progress on my Vita games. I've finished 3 chapters in danganronpa, finished 4 levels in Resogun and finished most of the main story in Oceonhorn. Only the last boss is left and will finish it this week. 

 

Yesterday i picked up Everybody's Golf again and I've finished the first 4 ranks. 

 

Goal for for this week is to platinum Oceonhorn, Uncharted the lost legacy and hellblade. I also want to 100% Journey.

18. The Silver Case (PS4) - 0% = 14%

 

Finally beat Bureau: XCOM Declassified! Felt good to beat, but not really looking for too many challenges right now. I know for a lot of people it wasn't that hard, but I struggled a bunch on Commander difficulty. I got a bit more progress in Save the Ninja Clan. Beat the first world and picked up some miscellaneous trophies. I also started The Silver Case, weird game, it's like a VN and puzzle game together, but only uses part of the screen. It is strange. I beat the first two cases, so we'll see if the story hooks me or not.

Been overseas since September so Ill only have one month to try and do these but I am going to have a red hot crack at it. Unsure if its possible in only 1 month.

 

1. Unchartered: Lost Legacy (1%)

2. Assassins Creed: Brotherhood (20%)

3. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (23%)

4. Bubsy: The Woolies Strike Back (0%)

Pyre - 14%

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - 8%

Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy - 100% 
Oceanhorn - 5%

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 100% 

Child of Light - 100%

Hue - 100%

Sky Force Anniversary - 42%

 

Child of Light is now complete, really enjoyed the whole game and am very tempted to play it through on PS4 too - found the last boss a bit easy as I was able to constantly interrupt them to prevent taking any damage.

As previously mentioned Hue was good, I really enjoyed the puzzles although some of the collectibles were a bit stupid.

 

Now on to Oceanhorn - I'm liking the feel but need to give it a bit more time to get properly into it.

Plus a side of Sky Force Anniversary, I'm loving this game at the moment particularly with unlocking the further difficulties and increasing star earning capabilities.

[dein-the-dragoon]

I've got a very interesting question that came up when I looked into my collection of games (backlog included!) to figure out which games I can throw-in for the next backlog challenge I'm participating: There is always one game egilible that can have a completion of 20-25%. What if - for some reason - one chooses a game that's standing at EXACTLY (!) 25% completion? Is this game still egilible?

Edited October 18, 2017 by dein-the-dragoon

[Riggnarokk]

Back from my vacation I made some progress on my backlog:

 

1. PixelGear (PS4) - 52%

2. Oceanhorn (PS4) - 100%

3. Xeodrifter (Vita) - 4%-> 19%

4. Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (PS4) - 37% -> 100%

5. God of War 2 - (PS3) - 0% -> 24%

[StilRh]

Dragon Quest Builders - 100%

Tokyo Xanadu - 12% > 15% 

Uncharted Lost Legacy 100%

Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth - 35%

Ys VIII - 100%

 

Been side tracked by new releases but recently spent some time with Xanadu, completing 2 chapters. Should crack it before Halloween.

[booshy_89]

Tearaway Unfolded - 35%

Pyre - 17%

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - 34%

Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy - 100% 
Oceanhorn - 15%

LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens - 100% 

Child of Light - 100%

Hue - 100%

Sky Force Anniversary - 52%

Headlander - 0%

 

A bit of progress on all games since my last update. I'm trying to make the platinum for South Park: The Stick of Truth my 5,000th (only 9 away) so having to game carefully at the moment. Up to the final mission though so hopefully should only be a day or two.

 

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is probably the progress I'm most happy with at the moment; I can see this being a pretty easy platinum from what I've played so I'm not sure why it's so rare?

Another week over? Another update incoming!

 

1. Kingdom Hearts Final Mix (PS3) 0% [0/56]
2. Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories (PS3) 3% [2/48]
3. Final Fantasy XIII-2 (PS3) 8% [5/32]
4. LEGO The Lord of the Rings (PS3) 16% → 27% [19/49]
5. Diablo III (PS3) 30% [17/46]
6. Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando (PS3) 70% [30/35]
7. Final Fantasy X HD (PS3/Vita) 9% [5/34]
8. MeiQ: Labyrinth of Death (Vita) 4% [3/37]
9. LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens (PS3) 0% [0/70 including DLC]
10. Day of the Tentacle Remastered (Vita) 0% [0/58]
11. Color Guardians (Vita) 100% [all 46 trophies]
12. Type:Rider (Vita) 100% [all 12 trophies]
13. Severed (Vita) 3% → 25% [8/25]
14. LEGO Batman 2 (Vita) 100% [all 32 trophies]

Severed is starting to get tougher - but I didn't play that much the last week... Hope to find my pace back there! LEGO The Lord of the Rings got me wondering: Why is this plat that rare? Has a fairly easy story, quick collectables (when you use a guide or the detectors)... But since the Autumn holidays are over over here, I hope I can knock off that LEGO game fast enough to get to Final Fantasy XIII-2.

[Cassylvania]

Been pretty burned out on gaming lately, so I haven't done much. I mostly blame RER, which has one of the most boring MP slog fests I've ever seen. You're literally asked to play through the entire game again...except it's broken down into twenty stages...and each stage has to be beaten on three difficulties...and you can't move onto the next difficulty until you gain enough experience and upgrades...which requires replaying those stages about a hundred times. Oh, and did I mention that there are bonuses that require completing each stage perfectly? Yeah, so have fun playing a 20 minute mission without taking any damage.

 

And that's not even mentioning the hour-long Ghost Ship level, that you have to grind over and over...

1. The Escapists: The Walking Dead (23/25 l 97%)
2. Metro: Last Light Redux (48/50 l 98%)
3. South Park: The Stick of Truth (49/51 l 98%)
4. Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back (25/25 l 100%)
5. The Deadly Tower of Monsters (22/24 l 98%)
6. Crash Bandicoot: Warped (25/25 l 100%)
7. Dead Synchronicity (23/25 l 91%)
8. Resident Evil (43/45 l 96%)
9. Resident Evil Revelations (46/56 l 44% --> 82%)
10. Claire (14/16 l 90%)
11. Enigmatis: The Ghosts of Maple Creek (10/12 l 0% --> 90%)
12. Batman: The Telltale Series (6/31 l 0% --> 20%)

RER can shove it.

Still no progress on KH.

 

But at least I've beaten CoM's story and gotten every missable trophy. I'm going for Riku's max level trophy first, since it's easily the most tedious trophy and the sooner I'm done with it the better. I already got most enemy cards in Sora's mode (still missing ~5) and level grinding with Sora is a lot easier (and faster) than with Riku. The only thing that worries me is the Barrel Spider enemy card, as it's pretty luck-dependent to even met these enemies.

[ladynadiad]

1. Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana 0% 100% (51 out of 51 trophies)

2. htoL#NiQ: The Firefly Diary 19% 31% (9 of 25 trophies)

11. 英雄伝説 閃の軌跡III 0%  10% (7 out of 53 trophies)

12. Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony 0% 78% (32 out of 41 trophies)

 

Trophies earned from this event: 1   6   19   83   (109 total trophies out of 446 total unearned trophies starting off)

 

Made some great progress in KH2 and have it nearly beat.  Probably will go play something else for a time though since I'm pretty satisfied with its progress for now and the plat will take a while.  Also made a bit of progress in the grind that is DRV3 and got the gallery and present trophies.  Working on the talent development plan now and have most of the V3 cast done, just have to do the 1 and 2 casts now.

 

And then I played a ton of Sen no Kiseki III and got through chapters 1 and 2.  Really enjoying this game and I hope it gets localized so others into the series can enjoy it too.

Hey I really like this for a an update idea...do you care if I use it starting with my next update? (I didn't want to just steal it.)

Go right ahead!  I did it mostly for me to see my overall progress and anyone is welcome to make use of it.

[AffectatiousDonk]

Ok so I completely forgot about this event (my bad) but am still alive and kicking (somewhere in Eorzea apparently). It is highly unlikely I will plat Everbody's Golf some of the requirements are pretty tough for my limited abilities. But still having alot of fun so will do as much as I can. Also will not hit the 300 plat mark by end of November (blame FFXIV damn you why are you so good), but will have it prepped for December. As for everything else they are all high possibilities. I am not sure if I can technically add games to the list or not but will try it and see if I get away with it. Adding South Park Fractured But Whole, Final Fantasy Type 0 - HD, The Pillars of Earth and The Invisible Hours (VR)

 

Hope everyone is having fun and making solid progress. Look forward to catching up on this thread and seeing how everyones journey unfolds.

I'm not sure (my PS4 died on me and I had to get a new one) but I had a save on Marvel Ultimate Alliance on hard right before the Doom fight if you would like to multiplayer that and skip the whole playthrough. I think I backed up the save, I will have to check. Also I am not sure if our schedules match up, I am central time and can usually only start around 9-10pm. But if all that works out and you are interested I would be willing to try and help you out (although it has been so long I might be terrible). Let me know.

Actually that’s my time zone too and usually my game time too. Thanks for the offer but I don’t mind running through it one more time. It’s quite easy with the characters I have. With that being said, I’ll try to have a save at the end for others to help.

I finished The Silver Case, I decided to leave one trophy, because another thread on here inspired me to pop some platinums on my birthday (which is October 31). Right now I am on track to at least pop The Silver Case, Save the Ninja Clan, Nightmares from the Deep (not part of this challenge but still at 90% from the last three days so it could have been), and potentially another.
