“What the Hell Is That Still Doing There” Backlog Event Ver. 3.0

[TomoTakino]

Managed to get my first entry into the event: Home for the Playstation Vita!  I could have swore that I managed to complete this back in the day but after looking through potential candidates, I realized I was missing two trophies.  First trophy was on January 24, 2015 at 12:31 AM.  Time difference 5 years 7 months 1 week.  I'm trying for FFXV 100% DLC and Megatagmension but those won't be for a while.

@TomoTakino

Congratulations on your first backlog game crossed off! & best of luck with the others (Megatagmension is grindy, but then again, they all are).

It seems I missed the cut off for Aug by a few hours. Oh well I guess it means I am done early for September. 

 

 

Completed in one year and 5 months. 

 

This was because at the time I did not want to do the New Game +.. Although it is unique in the sense that they invert all the levels on top of the one hit life. Once I restarted and got into a groove i pretty much cruised to get the required amount of medals to open the final area. Only one spot there gave me trouble with the stupid gears and spikes. I kept dying for a good 45 mins on that section but everything after that only maybe another 20 combined. So now I might look to another game completed this month. I may even take recommendations.

[Ich1994-1994]

I have already done my game for september

bentleys hackpack after 6years 5months

 

it also comleted the sly cooper series for me after i also cleared sly 2 for vita this month

sadly it does not count for the challange because i never actually started it and now completed it within 3 days

but still happy to have another game done from my pile of shame^^

I feel that's more fitting as a personal rule then one that has to be an actual written rule. Yes, it's disheartening to see the same game used over & over, or obviously seeded titles. Still that's similar to the debate over the worth of a profile with easy games vs. ultra rares, ultimately, an individual's choice. I don't want to put too many restrictions for participants that genuinely may only be able to complete DLC here & there. Keeping up with lists that add trophies is still progress.

I've also done KF2 but never posted it here. Did do some DLC here and there to keep the monthly streak going although I'm aiming to get 1 platinum cleaned up every month. In august I Just came 1 day short of cleaning up watch dogs with vacation and work so kinda glad I could do the borderlands 3 DLC 3 to keep the streak going. I however dont feel killing floor adding 1 trophy to a already existing DLC counts as a DLC done. 

[Mr-ttaM]

Late post, but got a completion to add for August ?

 

NieR:Automata 

Started: 16th Jun 2019

Finished: 31st Aug 2020

Duration: 1 year, 2 months, 2 weeks

This game was a lot of fun! I ended up doing all of the trophies legit because i was enjoying it, and couldn't bring myself to use the trophy shop to buy them and cut the experience short.

[Phantochi]

I'd like to join if that's ok, i'm trying to get 70% completion until the end of the year and this would definitely help me out. 

 

My game of the month will probably be dmc Devil may cry, but maybe i'll do a few extras since i'm not planning to start any new game until next month

[Kal-El457]

I don't have much of a back log but can someone please motivate me to play dragon age inquisition? lol

[Fnee2000]

First game of September is complete. I quickly remembered why I stopped playing this game upon picking it up again. It was soooooooooo boring. I don’t think I will ever touch another picross type game again. Even with a guide this took longer than I wanted to. Especially since I left myself the really long puzzles. Anyway, another game off the unfinished list, on to the next...

 

Pic-a-Pix Color (PS4) - Completed in 1 year, 5 months

[SyIaris]

May I join, please? Crossed off two last month and I should have 1-2 for this one as well, so it seems like I'm finally making progress. Aside from two three games (Hitman 2, Unravel, and Wildlands), everything on my profile ranges from February 2014 to March 2020.

 

Hopefully Letter Quest will be done today, then I'm going to see if I can complete Welcome Park, InFamous: First Light, or Arslan before the 15th for another event.

Well it’s been a while for me, but finally got Titan Quest checked off. What an absolute grind fest. Thanks to @Dja for his help finally getting the last trophy done.

 

First Trophy: Sept 29, 2018.

Plat: Sept 7, 2020. 
 

Been working through The Surge as well, hopefully that one will be off the backlog and into the past soon.

[IGUnique]

Got my september platinum done;

Watch Dogs 45 of 50 Trophies 6th September 2020 • Platinum in 5 years, 8 months

 

Now working on the DLC  and some Call of duty WW2 zombie maps...

[AmarisSkye]

Totally forgot to come here and make another post with the rest of my games for August (besides the three I had already posted) because my dad had emergency surgery at the end of the month and then I was away taking care of him for the past week and a half (he is doing much better now). I'm pretty sure this wouldn't have impacted any of the stats for the month with the exception of doubling the games that I completed for August. Here are the other games I completed from my list last month:
 

Tearaway Unfolded  All 35 Trophies  8th August 2020 • Platinum in 4 years, 1 month

                           First Trophy: 10^th Jul 2016

 

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard  51 of 59 Trophies  9th August 2020 • Platinum in 3 years, 6 months

                           First Trophy: 25^th Jan 2017

 

The Bridge  All 20 Trophies  10th August 2020 • Completed in 1 year, 10 months

                           First Trophy: 11^th Oct 2018

 

I'm not going to do an in depth write-up on these. I will say that Tearaway Unfolded was light-hearted with some challenging moments and I definitely recommend it as its one of the games that uses the full capabilities of the PS4 controller. The puzzles in The Bridge were quite fun particularly for someone who plays a lot of puzzle games. I am glad to have FINALLY finished the platinum for Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. I do want to eventually 100% the game but it may be beyond my gaming skills for a while as I am pretty bad at some of the DLC mini games - so for now I am celebrating my success in completing the base game and the bulk of the DLC.

[TomoTakino]

Hey!  I managed to finish another game in my backlog for September!  I'm also working on getting Cat Quest 2 for my next one and finishing up RE4 next. Also FFXV but that's tabled for now (I burnt myself out on Comrades).  The game I managed to beat was Megatagmension.  First trophy was on May 16, 2019 at 1:46 PM.  Time difference 1 year 3 months 4 weeks.

In addition to the watch dogs platinum also go the bad blood DLC done. 
 

Watch Dogs All 50 Trophies 11th September 2020 • Completed in 5 years, 8 months

 

And also Borderlands 3 DLC pack 4 (maybe the last with trophies cause there is more DLC comming but they are vague on that)

Borderlands 3 All 75 Trophies 13th September 2020 • Completed in 1 year, 2 hours

[REAPER4536]

It took a while but I got my game done for this month. Dead Space (1). I think every1 who wanted to play it has already play it but I came late to the party. Buying old Single Player games instead of new ones safes money and most likely prevents any upcoming dlcs or you own the dlcs because of a good deal. I bought DS2, DS Extraction and DS3 because of DS1 and looking forward to completing the entire franchise. Most likely no other game will be considered backlog but who knows if I play through the games and clean up years later.

 

Dead Space - First trophy 4th June 2019 - Completed in 1 year 3 months

 

Another update is that I am working on X-Com Enemy Unkown now. I got the game again from USA and going to get the HongKong DLC in order to clean up (Hong Kong DLC is compatible with American Disc Version). Far Cry 2 is at roughly 5,000/10,000 online kills. Aiming for every ps3 game and maybe mad may since server are going to shut down soon.

[be_minor]

I'd like to tackle more of my backlog and join this challenge too! I have a question though: I've been completing games for this challenge without even knowing it since June. Would these count towards my total if they fit the criteria of the event, or should I just include games I've completed this month? Thanks!

[IGUnique]

Took on the challenge and started the call of duty WW2 zombie DLC packs. Pretty much cleaned up all the DLC but just can't complete the boss fights. Did manage to fully complete the 3RD DLC with a total gap of:
2 years, 10 months, 2 weeks, 2 days, 14 hours

 

Might try the EE's run's again. 

[Fnee2000]

Another game down for the month and what a doozy it was. By doozy, I mean pile of crap... Not even a fun cheap-o shmup. Random bullets out of nowhere and some bad hit detection. The final boss was annoying as well. Anyway, glad to have this game removed from my system for good. Not sure if I will get anything else crossed off my list this month, but we shall see...

 

Rainbows, Toilets & Unicorns (PS4) - Completed in 6 months, 2 days

[Leigrez]

If the mod can remove me from this, that would be swell... I am going to be playing very minimally and won't really be going for trophies as much... I hit top 50 in Canada recently, which was my goal, so I'm good.

[bruin-rocks]

I completed Resident Evil 6 Survivors DLC(PS4). First trophy December 9th 2019, final trophy September 2nd 2020. Complete in 8 Months 24 days. I hope I can count a single DLC pack for a game. I’ve never done it before, and I only plan to do it once because this month has been 0 motivation for me to hit my backlog.

Congrats on getting Top 50! I hit top 50 in Canada, a few months ago, and then I started playing all the games I really wanted to and laid off the easy peasy games and I’ve dropped down the leaderboard quite a lot. 

[REAPER4536]

@Leigrez with my devil dogs for bad company 1 seems unlockable now - you might want to give it a try

 

[Fnee2000]

Finished off a DLC this month, guess I will add it to the list. It may be the final DLC for this game as well. Though, rumors are more DLC is coming, if it will have trophies remains to be seen...

 

Borderlands 3 (PS4) - 100% Completed (again) in 1 year, 1 week
