Monthly Madness 2019 Edition - Even

[Kevvik 2,787]

Ok, summary for September. Two games finished for the theme.

 

100% on Asdivine Hearts, also HC as it is part of a 4 game series.

Platinum on Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed - I think the Sonic racing series has 3 entries so far counting the latest one

 -EDIT: Sonic is also good for the challenge of a game started over a year ago, first trophy was earned in 2014

 

Also finished the Plats for Grand Kingdom and LEGO The Incredibles (while the LEGO series is extensive, this is a single title within it so I don't think it counts)

 

September Stats

 

Plats : +3

100%: +4

For September, I think I only finished one game that counts for the theme.

 

Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments

• I only know of 2 Sherlock games, so just basic theme fulfilled
• Complete a game that you started this month

 

I did also complete the Sam & Max: Devil's Playhouse series, and there have been many Sam & Max games over the years. But, because it's split up into 5 non-plat games, I'm not sure if that would count for anything.

 

Stats when joined:
Platinum trophies: 27
100% completed: 68
Completion: 40.18%
Stat changes during the year:
Platinum trophies: +23
100% completed: +39
Completion: +8.01%

[Gesyca 33]

Let's post this, if you notice my completion didn't go up as much because I started so many new games this month, but it's fine I had some great fun.

 

Now I should start to work on my games for October as it seems it's the bigger ones this time around, but should I use HowLongToBeat site statistics for this month or some other statistics are going to be used as well like the guides?

My stats at the end of the month:

  Platinum trophies: this month 28 (+1) / all year (+15);
  100% completed: this month 38 (+1) / all year (+21);
  Completion: 51.55% this month (+0.06%) / this year (+10,87%).

[ZachGM91 306]

End of month stats:

Platinum trophies: 74 (+46)
100% completed: 89 (+51)
Completion: 91.70% (+15.30)

 

I wish I had a little bit more time to get one or two more trophies to get my completion rating up a bit, but what ever. Close to finishing my first game of the month. Will probbly be done in two or three days if I'm lucky.

I should have Tekken 7 completed by the end of the week which will count towards most of these same challenges as well. 

I can't count What Remains of Edith Finch, Forgotton Anne and Hue because they aren't part of a series but rather single titles.

But I saw you finished Tekken 7 so you can post the challenges that count for that game to still get your 4th game for this month.

Even though this was a theme I was really excited about I don't think I'm going to get a plat for it this month :/ I'm going to make one final push this weekend, wish me luck! 

 

EDIT: Oh shoot, main story counts? Then Monster Hunter World: Iceborne should get me that! 

Main story counts for a rank only though. Still better than

My games for this month are Devious Dungeon 2 (AS), Torchlight 2, and Inferno 2 (EU +NA). Also, startet and completed them within this month.

 

I'd also have Tic-Tac-Letters by Powgi, but that's not oficially released yet and thus, should count. Would have met HC requirement though.

I counted Tic-Tac-Letters since you completed it.

 Code: Realize ~Future Blessings~
-Different event (fall/winter backlog)
-Started this month

 

 Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time
-Hardcore
-10 years (2009)
-Different event (bingo, fall/winter backlog)

LEGO Indiana Jones (PS3 version has no trophies)
-Hardcore
-Started this month
-10 years (2008)

 

Cat Quest

May not count; I didn't 100% it, but the achievements I didn't get were added in an update. What I have is basically a condensed version of the PSN trophies - it has the "get all" ones instead of various increments. No biggie if not, but if it does:

-Started this month

-Four games

 

 

• Platinum trophies: 104
• 100% completed: 151
• Completion: 72.16%

I would have counted Cat Quest but since the second game isn't out yet (as far as I know) it isn't part of a series right now.

Got a few more done

 

7. Word Wheel by POWGI

• Complete a game that fulfills the Hardcore requirement of that month.
• Complete a game that you started this month

8. Eventide 3: Legacy of Legends

• Complete a game that you started this month
• Complete a game that counts towards a different PSNP event - using for Bingo Bonanza 2019
• Complete 4 games in one month

I'm not sure if stacks of the same game count twice - if so, I did Word Wheel a 2nd time on the PS4 as well as the Vita

As long as the stack isn't auto poped you can use as many stacks as you want.

I think the only other game that I have finished that fits the theme of the month is Darksiders: Warmastered Edition.

 

• HC Requirement (3 game series)
• Part of another event (Backlog Event)

For hardcore the series needs at least 4 games.

There are a few other Sherlock Holmes games so you got the hardcore for that one.

Also for episodic games with different trophy lists you can get a rank for completeing all episodes, what you did. So you got a star for that as well.

Two more games for September 

 

Jak 2 (started this month, hardcore, and over 10 years old.)

 

Code:Realize Guardians of Rebirth and I think Code Realize has only three games in America. I know there’s a ton more in Japan but that’s up to you if you wanna count it for hardcore or not.

Sorry, I assumed it released on everything at the same time. Would have linked it otherwise, but the PC version came out a week ago. Little odd it isn't on PSN, actually...

[MarkusT1992 2,684]

Next month's theme will be "That takes some time"

Some games are short, some games are long. This time we focus on the long ones.

Any game that take at least 15h to complete (for getting the platinum trophy) counts. For non platinum games 2h is enough.

Examples (according to the guids on this site): Control, The Messenger, The Sinking City

There are games that take even longer? Yes there are!

For the hardcore requirement the game must take at least 30h to complete. Non plat games only need 5h.

Examples: Probably every RPG, God of War, GTA V

 

Here are the reminder for those without a game for September

Sorry about that. Not sure why I posted the non-themed games as part of the challenges...I think I got on a roll with my other games and just followed the template. Thank you for checking on Tekken 7 and it seems like you got that covered so I won't repost that. I also beat Game of Thrones in September...but that doesn't qualify for anything either.

 

I'll edit this post when I get home my stats for September. I started LA Noire yesterday which threw off my percentages so need to wait until I get home where my browser is up with the correct info.

I haven't added Tekken 7 yet for you. I just saw that you finished it while checking your profile.

I would count Game of Thrones. There is another GoT game which is an RPG as far as I know. So let me know if you want to use it.

For Steins;Gate: It doesn't matter if a game is localised or not. As long as there are enough games it counts for the hardcore theme.

For Amnesia Collection: There are (at least) two Amnesia game, so it counts for the theme.

Welcome aboard to every new participant.

[ZachGM91 306]

First game of the month

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep: Took me over 120 hours if the combined totals can be trusted

• Counts towards a different event: Fall/Winter 2019-2020 Backlog Challenge
• Fulfills the Hardcore requirement

 

 

[Together_Comic 1,178]

First Game of the Month

Final Fantasy IX: 60 hours to complete.

 

• Fulfill's Hardcore Requirement
• Counts towards a different event: Fall/Winter 2019-2020 Backlog Challenge. 
• Finish a 10 year-old game: FF9 was released July 7, 2000. (I think this is the case, this was the rerelease/remaster) 

[Briste 1,957]

I got an unexpected game done for the month with Space Hulk. I had no idea if/when that last trophy would pop and I was pleasantly surprised over the weekend. I easily spent 130 hours on this game (shouldn't have been that long but I screwed up saving my kills) This game counts towards the Hardcore requirement, another PSN event (Bingo) and a game where I got my first trophy over a year ago.

 

I'm hoping to finish LA Noire tonight or tomorrow. I think I'm right around 30 hours so far so it'll be close if it's hardcore or not.

[starcrunch061 10,113]

Man - it's gonna be tight this month. I really want to finish Skyrim (PS4) for this month, but we'll see.

[Ashuri-B 173]

Just completed Master of Mordor, Platinum for Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. I'm going to be TRYING To get the DLC completed by the end of the month for some extra side mission points, but for now that's my platinum for the monthly theme! (Guide on the website says 25 hours; out of curiosity if I complete all of the DLC that will make the total over 30 hours, will that then count as HC? Or is the HC requirement only for the base platinum?)

Points: Platinum: Game over 15 hours
