I think most people have created separate accounts and then purchase psn cards from certain sites to do this. That's the way I have done it anyway... But I am not a heavy user of other psn stores so there is most likely a better way. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dessane Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 @adam1984123 Yeah I assumed so but thought I'd just check I've dug the shootout so wanted to make sure I get to lose to you guys elsewhere too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a former trophy hunting mate that said he, along with others paid this one particular user with multiple accounts to download the spam during their heyday and he mentioned it was quite common at the time, so was just wondering if its still a "thing" these days. Would be an interesting competition if i got into the regionals. Edited February 1, 2018 by Demon--Prototype 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, there are far more qualified people than me to comment on that, so I am sure they can lead you in the right direction if that's what you're looking for. Your profile is unbelievable by the way. The only unearned trophies you have on it are from the game you are currently playing! And being 193 games in, that is something else. I hope you aren't forgoing some great games just in case you can't 100% them though - that would be a shame? Or maybe you try them on an alt account? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got bad OCD, hence the completion. Nothing in comparison to your NBA2K plats though lol, absolute monster achievements dude! Hats off to you! I've definitely gone into a few games knowing the challenge involved so i don't avoid difficult titles by any means. (I have quite a few in my backlog too) I see many people on here embracing the spam so i feel like i'm missing out in a way, hence my enquiry about the accounts lol I was also going to brag about my Surgeon Simulator plat but i see you have that too ? You're a gun! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see the latter being quite beneficial to said account owners, hence my curiosity. Sorry for going off topic but our beloved Google cant seem to help me with these questions. Acquiring PSN cards from other regions is quite easy, I would recommend pcgamesupply or playasia. I am sure there are other options but I have never had any problem with them. Perhaps @fisty123 might know of some others. In regards to cost, buying a lot of those games is not as expensive as you would think. If you monitor sales in other regions you can often get some good deals. Up until a year ago buying off the Canadian store would save you about 50% on almost any game. The margin is a lot less now but often a better alternative than the AU store. I don't use the American store at all and have never found it to be good value in comparison from what I have seen. I believe there is a market in hiring physical games, mainly imported titles but that is not as common as some people believe I feel. If money is not really a concern I would encourage you to just setup some other accounts and fund them yourself. At the end of the day he who pays calls the shots right. If you are interested send me a request on PSN, a group of us share info about a lot of the games that are coming out and how realistic / time the plat really is. Of course you could wait till next year, I am considering writing a book when I finish " How to get to Lvl 100 fast ; Truths, Myths, Trophies and Laughs - Shameful stories from an Ex-Trophy Hunter ". Oh and I checked your profile, nice to see a completionist interested in the pure art of spam hunting. But I reject your claim you have out spammed the EU store, there is plenty still to be had, happy hunting.

Gibbo_0113 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) Count me in. Gonna try and post more this time.........and actually post the end thoughts / questions Question. Say we choose a game for a backlog and the servers suddenly go down rendering the platinum impossible. Are we allowed to switch that game with another in that instance?

Thanks man, and i honour your rejection in my claim about the EU store, would like to hear of the delicious spam i haven't had the opportunity to devour.

I was try to come across as a prick but sometimes I wonder if I overstep the prickdom line, obviously it doesn't bother me but one must at least keep some sort of decorum in the forum ( wow decorum in the forum that's a winner ). Ok ok I have sabotaged this thread enough. Best of luck to everyone entering this year.

I'm not saying that you have to respond to every comment ever made here but a couple of posts a month with an update on what you're playing and what you think of the games would be nice.

Hopefully your performance will be slightly better than your current efforts in simp's competition!

You're on fire at the moment with your haul in simp's competition, if you carry it on here then you might be near the top come the end of the year. On 1/31/2018 at 10:48 PM, fisty123 said: I'm in. Not going lie my backlog will be 10 JRPGs again Welcome back mate! Are you sure that you want to put yourself through that again!? Thanks to everybody showing their interest in the competition, I aim to respond to every single person who wants to join but I'm doing them in small groups at a time (you'll quickly learn that I'm a special individual and it takes me considerable amounts of time to do anything). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuzzieWingman Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Same. I was sitting at home last night deciding whether to start DBFighterZ, Dissidia or Monster Hunter World. Still haven't started everything that came out last year. Yakuza, KH 2.8, Persona 5, Horizon Zero Dawn, Ni-Oh. Heck, there's older stuff like Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Phantom Pain and Skyrim which I've barely touched. And I'll likely play Metal Gear Survive before all of them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok enough sitting on the fence, I have seen the field and it is what it is. I have no doubt Fisty will lay down the hammer and dominate Division One again but I can't let him take it so easily. Therefore I throw my hat into the ring as the destroyer of dreams, the liberator of trophies, the uphold of spam. This talk of a bonus point for backlog games proves to enticing, so I pledge in this of field completionist slaves, PS3 has-beens, server closure paranoids that I will complete my backlog and snare the 1 point.
