I totally forgot about this this month so have nothing to show for it. I'll use a skip if we still have them (first time ever for me, dash it all) and try to do better next month.

We still have skips. You just have to say which game you'd like to use with your skip.

I already submitted Crash Bandicoot DLC earlier this month along with Crash Bandicoot 3. Now to go with those, since the last update I've completed...

Spyro the Dragon

  • 10 Year old game
  • HC challenge complete
  • Started and finished this month

Spyro the Dragon 2

  • 10 year old game
  • HC challenge complete
  • Started and finished this month

Spyro the Dragon 3

  • 10 year old game
  • HC challenge complete
  • Started and finished this month
  • 4 game challenge complete (Crash 3, Spyro 1, Spyro 2, Spyro 3)

 

And so many choices for game of the year category. I've fairly certain these games have at least been nominated but not sure how many winners I have. Can someone let me know if any of the following games count for the HC challenge for May, or if it counts at all? I know they have all been hyped up and have generally had positive reviews but not sure if GOTY worthy. Thanks

  • God of War
  • Horizon Zero Dawn
  • Far Cry 5
  • Bloodborne

I'll go with Mary Skelter for the skip. I'll post my monthly stats tomorrow.

God of War and Bloodborne count for the hardcore. I also used those two as an example.

Horizon: Zero Dawn only counts for the normal theme as far as I can see and Far Cry 5 doesn't count at all.

@MarkusT1992 Are their any specific awards we are looking at, I assume the Game Awards would count, But what about the Golden Joysticks, SXSW Game awards etc?

 

I posted a link at the top of the first post that leads to a Wikipedia article with all the different awards. You can use anything that's listed under the active awards section.

Only thing to pay attention to is that it is Game of the Year and not something like Adventure game of the Year or Indi game of the Year.

Thought I would beat the game I was playing before I had to start next month, but oh well. Update:

 

Platinum trophies: 53 (+25)
100% completed: 61 (+23)
Completion: 76.40% (+9.5)

 

I have two games lined up, but my playing may slow down for a few months as I'll be dealing with family for awhile. It won't happen until like a week or two and you probably don't care, but I thought I should give a heads up.

i completed Onimusha Warlords for this month

  • Complete a 10 year old game. (orginal release was out in 2001 
  • Complete a game that counts towards a different PSNP event. (songkran festival)
  • Complete a game that fulfills the Hardcore requirement of that month.(ps2 game)
  • Complete a game that you started this month

 

For next month would borderlands game of the year count. was also wondering are we able to play the remake of a game if the original won the award. an example is shadow of colossus won game awards back in 2006 but can i play the one that just came out last year

No problem in slowing down a bit. Some things are more important than gaming.

Can I please sign up. I have 27 platinum trophies and have 39 completed games. 

You still have to post your starting completion percent. After you have done that I can add you.

I would say that remaster/remakes of those games also count as long as they are the same game and don't change to much. So most remakes should count.

Final update for the month. I am disappointed that I didn't finish the DLC for Borderlands and Burnout Paradise Remastered but I am doing a bunch of events right now & was away for the last weekend of the month so there just wasn't time.

 

Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus (PS3)

  • Complete a 10 year old game (September 23, 2002)
  • Complete a game that counts towards another PSNP event (Songkran Festival)
  • Complete 4 games in one month
  • Complete a game that fulfills the Hardcore Requirement (originally released for PS2)
  • Complete a game in which you got your first trophy a year ago.

New Stats:

Platinum trophies: 38 (+7)
100% completed: 46 (+6)
Completion: 33.52% (+3.6%)

Sorry I forgot to post this, actually I didn't even play anything yet, so I doesn't matter, but here it is.

Stats at the end of April:
   Platinum trophies: this month 23 (+1) / all year (+10);
   100% completed: this month 30 (+1) / all year (+13);
   Completion: 47.18% this month (+0.86%) / this year (+6.5%).

I hope to play any game this month (it's not just to earning trophies, just to play for fun), April was a surprise month, but it has passed, now after this post I will see what I can play for this month challenge and then play something later. I have to say my stats is still increasing even when a lot of stuff happened, that's great to see, this actually gave me a boost to go back to play some games.

The Bioshock DLC only counts for the DLC challenge.

As I stated on a previous post around here somewhere, I skipped April's challenge, since I was outside of my country for two weeks.

I just came back now. :P 

Then I just forgot about that. When I write the post I just check who hasn't an entry for that month and mention them.

No problem in skipping a month but checking your profil you completed Ratchet & Clank which would count because it is a reboot of the first Ratchet & Clank game.

100% completed: +2 88~>90

Completion: +0.29% 96.94%~>97.23%

 

This year:

Platinum trophies: +9 74~>83
100% completed: +9 79~>90
Completion:
+0.95% 96.28%~>97.23%

Oh, but the story was already completed before the month, so I didn't know it would count. If it does count, then I guess you can do it. :P 

My mistake then!

Since this event is for getting :platinum: trophies or 100% in games it doesn't matter how far you are in a game. The only restriction is that you have more than 1 trophy left before the plat or 100%.

I saw that you got more than one trophy in April so it counts.

First game for May

 

Celeste

Winner of multiple Game of the Year awards of 2018. I don't see why though. Just a Meat Boy-like with nicer graphics. Only bought it originally cause of a lot of my friends going on about it. Finally played it, whatever.

 

Qualifies for hardcore, played for another event (Bingo) and started this month.

 

also i've yet to update my stats so here's that.

 

Plats: 202

100% 200

Completion %: 80.01
