Web travel counts, then, since the web is separate from his natural ability? 2 hours ago, Crimson Idol said: Two suggestions for April: 1. Too good to be forgotten Requirement: Play a game that was remastered or remade HC: Play a remaster or remake of a game that was originally released before the PS3/X360-gen (aka prior HD-games) 2. That's gimmicky Requirement: Play a game that uses system-specific features (Six Axis for PS3, Touchpad for PS4, Touchscreen or Gyro for Vita, etc.) HC: Play a game that requires external peripherals (smartphone apps, camera, Move, PS VR) I love the first one. I don't like the second one, mostly because I don't like gimmicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachGM91 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 I have an Idea for next month: There Was a Book?! Play a game that is an adaptation of a book, movie, manga, comic book, ECT. (Examples: Batman: Arkham Asylum, Back to the Future, Alice: Madness Returns, Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise) Hardcore: Play a game that is an adaptation of an adaptation (Examples: LEGO Harry Potter, Jurassic Park, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Danger of the Ooze, Ratchet And Clank (2016)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider-Man was one of the games I listed as an example for the hardcore theme, so yes it counts. It depends on which Spider-Man you're talking about if the web shooting is a gadget or a natural abillity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvengedEvil Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Hey, Here's a little stats update. Platinum trophies: 436 (+36) 100% completed: 511 (+40) Completion: 99.65% (+0.15) My idea for next month: It stacks up! Requirement: Complete a game that has more than one stack. HC: Complete a stack from a different region than yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violino Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Didn't manage to complete my February game, too much came up. I'll just have to make sure I do it this month. Question about this months theme, do the Spyro games count? I still have to finish Spyro 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember anything that would qualify for the theme. That also could be because I haven't played any Spyro game for a very long time. Since Spyro is a dragon his wings wont't count because they are parts of a dragon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are sections where he has to ride a skateboard and IIRC Spyro 3 also features a section where he has to ride a submarine, although that is automated sequence.

ArtikSkarab Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Cleared my first game for this month: Assassin's Creed: Origins I really enjoyed this game; the story was good, Bayek was a really nice character and the new controls felt like a god-send compared to the old AC games' combat. A definitive recommendation. Challenges cleared: Hardcore (Horses, camels, chariots, boats) 1 year game Next, my suggestion for the April challenge. It was difficult to figure out a challenge that was interesting while still letting a wide breath of choice for what to use. Parental Control: Play a non-mature game (M for ESRB, 16 for PEGI, C for CERO) Hardcore: Play an all-ages game (E or E10 for ESRB, 3 or 7 for PEGI, A for CERO) Finally a question, if I complete all DLC for a game I already have the Platinum, can I use that for the DLC challenge?

SyIaris Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Well, got a silver out of the way if I need it. Hoping to get some quick plats and then finish Dragon Quest, though. Does Plague Inc count? Technically, "you" travel by plane, ship, livestock, bugs, bats, rats, humans, etc... but calling a general disease/parasite a character feels a bit odd.

Plague Inc. wasn't one of the games I thought about with this theme. Technically it is some kind of transportation for a bakterium or virus. On the other hand you aren't really controlling the bakterium/virus yourselfe. That's a difficult question. Right now I'm more on the it doesn't count side because it's more simulation with an operator feel than a real character you're playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WDB_Chaotic Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Sorry for the late update, been playing games but failing to update the forums. For February only SOMA would count, as you have to change into a different power suit to head further to the ocean floor. Completed a few other but they fail to meet the theme @MarkusT1992 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvengedEvil Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hey, In Creepy Road, there is a section in which you're sitting on a rocket and fly through the level. If this counts as transportation, this would be my first game for the current theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix: There are worlds that force a costume change, such as Space Paranoids and Halloween Town. Plus the Drive Form change the color of your outfit when used. Hardcore?: The Drive form change the color of your outfit, though I'm not sure if that counts or not. I'll let you decide if it does. Different PSNP challenge: Winter 2018/2019 Backlog Challenge, Bingo Bonanza Saints Row IV (Beaten, no Platinum) Started this month Different PSNP challenge: Bingo Bonanza End of February Stat update Platinum trophies: 39 (+11) 100% completed: 50 (+12) Completion: 81.38% (+4.99%) Sorry to quote the same post again but while updating I noticed that you only finished the story for Saint's Row IV. Challenges only apply for games that grant at least a rank. Also we never had someone with a or rank earn another rank. I added a in addition to your because we don't have a star for silver ranks.

Not sure if either count really. If my memory serves me right you can chose an armor in one of the episode of Minecraft. That means I gave you a platinum rank plus a star for the DLC challenge. We already have some suggestions for next month so I wanted to ask if I should pre select like 3 or 4 themes to vote from or use every single theme suggested, no matter how many there will be? Originally I decide to add every suggestion to the poll but if more people want a smaller list I would reduce them to a reasonable amount throught random.org. Finally, everything should be up to date again. As always let me know if I missed something. Infortunately it can happen with the amount of things to update. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorDrPepper Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Finished my first game for March, Crayola Scoot. You have a scooter, which qualifies for the hardcore conditions. Also started and completed this month and also for another event. ill come back at the end of the month to report any other Gabe’s I play that qualify instead of clogging the topic with too many posts. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ147 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Theme idea, gotta go fast Basic requirement is any game where being fast is needed. Essentially this will cover all racing games or similar games. Can also include any game where you can drive or use something to help you go very fast. HC is any game that is NOT a racing game AND has something that requires you to move fast. Could be a game that has speed run trophies. Or maybe a game that has time trials. Examples, Gravity Rush or Crash Bandicoot 1-3 Not sure if it's a good idea but it's likely the best one I got, let me know what you guys think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorDrPepper Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) I forgot to post my idea for April. With Avengers Endgame coming out next month what about this for a theme. With Great Power... Play any game where you are a hero with “superpowers” HC requirements: Play a game where you specifically control any Marvel superhero.

Briste Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 (edited) Here's a couple of possible ideas... April is National Pet Month in the UK - Play a game that has pets, summons or animals HC element is a game where you get to play as the pet or animal. Examples: Banner Saga 2 (player tames a bear and can summon him into battle), tons of JRPGs involve summons or pets April is also National Guitar Month in several countries - Play a game where music or rhythm is a key component HC element play a game where your character actually plays an instrument. Examples: Final Fantasy X-2, Persona 4 Golden, Sounds and Shapes, etc Edited March 8, 2019 by Briste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter226037 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) I just noticed I forgot to give my topic a name. I wanted to be a bit more specific as well. It Can't End Like That... Play a game with multiple endings. HC:The protagonist dies in at least one of the endings. Edited March 10, 2019 by Hunter226037 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like some of the ones suggested though, particularly There was a book?! and Too good to be forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmarisSkye Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) I'd like to join! Current number of achieved platinum trophies: 31 Current number of 100% completed titles: 40 Current completion percentage: 29.92% For March, I plan to beat Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus on both PS3 & PSVita. They each have their own trophy lists so I hope they count as two Platinums. Edited March 11, 2019 by AmarisSkye Update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
