Gretchen27 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) We’ve arrived at the last month of the year! I know most of us will be busy with new titles this month, but don’t forget it’s still a great opportunity to cross off a few more backlog games (& most importantly clear some space for those new games). Personally, I’ll be going for a 2 game month to finish Nihilumbra & Harvest Moon. Best of luck with your own goals! Monthly Summary: November Games Completed by Participant: AUSTRALIANDJ: 2 games BillyHorrible: 1 game bodigard: 1 game Crimson Idol: 2 games Myu: 1 game Vermachtnis: 1 game vin_rob: 1 game Total: 9 games (-6) Oldest Game Completed: Diablo III [5 years, 2 months] bodigard Rarest Platinum: Grid Autosport (2.28%) Crimson Idol Rarest 100%: Hitman (2.30%) BillyHorrible @Ilzaki Can’t say I’m mad about the lie. A game is a game ? Digimon can be a quick & easy game to finish some other month. @AUSTRALIANDJ No worries, looks like you more than made up for October in November. That’s a tough break about the Watch Dogs save file. Being one away from done, I don’t think I’d have the patience to visit the game again. I see you have both games 100% completed now, so congrats Multiplayer can take a lot of commitment & planning, glad you had some good friends to make the journey easier & probably more fun. @bodigard I had to read that number again. #600? That’s phenomenal! Congrats on the huge milestone. @bruin-rocks Good luck with your games. I can’t speak for two of them, but don’t let the bounties in Uncharted drive you crazy ? @Crimson Idol Crossing off a game early in the month, very nice! Next stop: I see what you did there ? Looks like it will be a 2 game month for you again. Edited December 8, 2018 by Gretchen27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonidol38 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 And it's done. Driver: San Francisco is finished and is now officially part of my milestones with being plat #200. A small excerpt from my final summary for KYC #2: On 30.11.2016 at 11:07 PM, Crimson Idol said: Game #2: Driver San Francisco (Day 1, Day 2, Day 3)Playing time: ~22 hours (time slot: 9 hours)Trophies earned: 32 / 51 (time slot: 17 / 51)Completion/Rank: 61%, A (time slot: 24%, C)Final summary: The story is over the top and good for what it wants to be. The gameplay itself was super fun and I'm excited to return to this game. I at least want to try to get everything done and might go for the plat if the multiplayer-modes I still have to play are fun. https://forum.psnprofiles.com/topic/42368-kill-your-completion-againfinished/?do=findComment&comment=1180934 Yeah, I surely was excited if I neglected the game for about two years. No matter what, the things I wrote about it still hold true. The story was enjoyable when I played it, there's a vast selection of cars to choose from like the typical super cars , normal muscle cars or different trucks. And then there's a bunch of good fitting songs as OST. Not to forget that the ability to shift into different cars is hilarious as this gives you the option to hear different dialogs from time to time when the co-driver interacts with you. Doing the rest of the singleplayer was quite easy as there were barely any things left to do (and luckily there's no requirement to do all challenges as some are a PITA). The only "annoying" thing was the multiplayer-portion as I still had to fulfill nearly all requirements for the trophies but most of them could be self-boosted with a second PS3. I hope, that the studio behind the Driver-series will get the possibility to release another entry in the near future. Or Ubisoft could at least release a remaster. For now I will put my focus on Ride 3 and the Hatoful-VNs which I still plan to do for the Vita-anniversary, so the backlog will have to wait a bit longer. December 2018: Knowledge is Power [19th January 2018, Plat], Driver: San Francisco [4th November 2016, Plat] 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good choice, looking forward to seeing it crossed off your list. On 12/5/2018 at 1:14 PM, Crimson Idol said: And it's done. Yay! Congratulations on Plat #200 & on completing the Spyro trilogy After seeing the CTR remaster trailer I’m in the mood for a racing game so I hope Driver does get a remaster or new game as well. I'd try it.

It’s an older game but 3 “friends” shouldn’t be too hard to gather. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevvik Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 (edited) First game completed: Hitman: Absolution First trophy earned: 21 Jul 2017 Last trophy earned: 10 Dec 2018 Time to Completion: 1 year, 4 months, 2 weeks I know you've got me down for starting the event in Feb 2017 when the first incarnation was running but I'd say just start me at November 2018 when I actually started looking at these titles more closely. Not sure which one I'm going to work on next but I told myself no new starts during December, just hitting backlog.

bruin-rocks Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Tomb Raider platinum is done. I love the stories for these games. But getting to level 60 in online was brutal.

snakebit10 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 I had seen this event around for some time but never really payed attention to it. So as I was talking with @Dr_Mayus tonight about backlog games he pointed me towards this event. Like many others I have a lot of games 6 months and older were I earned my first trophy in it. So I am considering joining this event in January. I kind of have the rest of this month planned out but next year I would like to make a dent into some of the games I have started and not finished. I will be going for Plats/100% games I haven't finished trophy wise.

Welcome 150+ unfinished games gives you plenty to jump back into (hopefully) enjoyable games that deserve another playthrough. Whenever you're set to join post your backlog list &/or what you plan to start working on. You don't need to be engaged in the event every month (as everyone tackles their respective backlogs at their own pace), just drop in once in awhile & let us know how it's going. Look forward to seeing your progress in the coming year! 23 hours ago, Ilzaki said: I platted Secret of Mana earlier this month. 9 Months and 2 Weeks. Very nice! Got you updated.

Gretchen27 Posted December 26, 2018 Author Share Posted December 26, 2018 Nihilumbra completed [1 year, 10 months] A nice puzzle platformer that in theory (seeing as it was originally released as an app game) shouldn't end up taking so long to finish. Then again, there's void mode to consider...The key to getting through void mode relies on planning with your elements to chain effects for screens ahead. Like having a large platform to jump over but a good height to increase your jump is 2 screens back from the platform. It could be very strict at times with timing & element restrictions. I had to look up challenging parts more times then I'd like to admit. Still the normal mode is worth a play if you enjoy games like Hue. Harvest Moon will be staying in my backlog for the foreseeable future. That cow 'nice ' scene refuses to appear. You win this round HM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevvik Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) So I finished the main story for Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time (the 4th game I got trophies on, started back in 2010). Hopefully, I'll have the plat done early in the new year. Also so got a couple of trophies on Color Guardians but all it really did was remind me why I never went back to it earlier. Got a bunch of games eagerly waiting for me to start on January 1st but we'll keep working on the backlog while we go. An early Happy New Year to everyone. Keep on grinding!

crimsonidol38 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 An unexpected completion to report: Just finished the second DLC for the original Guacamelee! Decided to give the original version another try as there were only a few Infierno challenges left and it went surprisingly fast, although the controls felt a bit less responsive than in Guacamelee! 2 and losing the combo once you get hit was kinda unexpected as the second installment has an ability that allows you to take at least three hits before the combo breaks. Therefor all combo-related challenges were a bit more challenging than the ones of the Proving Grounds DLC for G2, but overall it was still doable. I guess this will be the last backlog game I will finish this year. Here's to a more productive 2019. December 2018: Knowledge is Power [19th January 2018, Plat], Driver: San Francisco [4th November 2016, Plat], Guacamelee!

snakebit10 Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 It is January 1st 2019 . I want to officially join up now. Here is a list of games that has been in my back log that I intend on working on and hopefully plat/100% this year. They won't be in any particular order or does the order I list them mean the order I will work on them. Games that I would like to platinum this year. 1. Dreamfall Chapters. first trophy June 18, 2018 2. Borderlands 2. First Trophy April 19, 2015 3. Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. First trophy August 8, 2016 4. Ratchet and Clank 2. First Trophy August 9, 2017 5. Lego The Lord of the Rings. First Trophy April 14, 2018 6. Assassin's Creed Rogue. First Trophy May 17, 2017 7. Need For Speed Rivals. First Trophy January 17, 2015 8. Unravel. First Trophy May 13, 2016 9. Mass Effect 3. First Trophy March 6th 2012 10. Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time. First trophy February 13, 2011 11. Prince of Persia The Sands of Time. First Trophy December 28 2010 12. Bridge Constructor Portal. First Trophy March 2, 2018 This would give me one a month. There are several other games I could see my self finishing this year and some PSN titles I'd like to go back and get the 100% in. So if I can stick with my plan here it would make a decent dent into my back log. I'll keep the community up to date on my progress. I'll mention when I start on my first back log game in my list and i'll make mention of my progress. My plan is to work towards one game a month and do a little of it several times a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, Connor & Hank were my favorite duo. I like grumpy detectives & clueless partners. My first playthrough didn't end the way I wanted it to for them. Spoiler free version they ended up on the roof & I aced the QTEs so I very nearly destroyed my PS4. But lucky I was able to restart & fail the last QTE. Still wasn't a great outcome, but they both lived. I was hoping I could stay neutral (guess that falls under machine) & just fail to kill Markus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
