There is one easy easy online trophy for that game.  I'd get it done right away (just in case, just in case )

Thanks for the heads up! I'll aim to pick it up over the weekend 😀

[Floorkiller74]

I just picked up Apache: Air Assault, Hot Wheels, and The Witch and the Hundred Night over the last couple days.

Finally pulled the trigger on one of my most wanted PS3 titles.

 

[GunfighterHefty]

Bought a physical copy of Rambo on Thursday night...just to toss into the towering pile that is my backlog. 

[Floorkiller74]

Added today:

Farming Simulator 15 (Turns out my copy of the original Farm Sim had the 15 disc in it, so I kinda already had this...)

The Testament of Sherlock Holmes

NHL 2K10

SBKX 

Just Dance 2018

Singstar Queen

Ride to Hell Retribution

Way of the Samurai 3

Way of the Samurai 4 (Digital, bought the disc but it was still sealed so I'm leaving it that way)

Kung Fu Panda

DBZ Burst Limit

 

 

[VegaMan-X4]

 

Was hoping for PS4 GOTY re-release (all DLC included) at some point but that was not to be, so I finally settled with a PS3 copy that arrived last week.

Plus, another old photo of mine of an average game but also two amazing video game soundtracks that came out of it!

Nearly the last of my latest binge-

 

Ashes Cricket 2009 (Sealed)

So, I've purchased around 10 or so used EU games over the last 6 months, because they were cheap and games I can't get here...just something different....Literally, every single one has come factory sealed. So, I haven't played any of them because I don't really want to open them 😕. I have 2 more coming this weekend so we will see. 

 

National Geographic Challange (Also sealed)

Moto GP 14

Barbie (shhhhhh)

Virtua Tennis 4

Farming Sim (Finally the right game in the case)

Marvel Superhero Squad

NBA Street Homecourt

Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire

 

I'm down to needing one NTSC disc game without trophies. Armored Core: For Answer. Not happening at current prices, and I do have the 360 version w/ Ach's.

I haven't had a PS3 since 2013, I sold it & switched over the the Xbox One 🫢

Been feeling a bit nostalgic for the older gaming days recently as I have a particular hatred for the "live service" model that will only keep getting more and more prevalent, so I bought a second hand PS3 with a handful of games and started a fresh PSN profile to trophy hunt / reminisce on some old favourites as well as play some new games for the first time!

- 3D Dot Game Heroes (this is EXPENSIVE now but I loved it back in the day so had to bite the bullet)
- Beyond Two Souls (never played, but I loved Heavy Rain so i'm hoping for more of the same)

- Doctor Who The Eternity Clock (it's bad, but i'm a big Doctor Who fan)

- The Evil Within (I could just play the Xbox version on Game Pass, but I think there's a weird sort of "charm" to the early cross-gen games, interesting to see what compromises they made on the older systems) 
- Heavy Rain (as mentioned above, i've played it and love it, going to give it another run through) 

- Lego Dimensions (has a Doctor Who level pack, I had to)

- London 2012 (the olympic video games are dumb, button mashy party fun)

- Mirror's Edge (beaten a few times on Xbox, needed an excuse to play through again for trophies)

- Motorstorm Pacific Rift (Sony needs to let someone take a shot at the Motorstorm IP again, these games are golden)

- Naruto Shippuden UNS Revolution (one of the "spin-off" titles stuck on older gen systems)

- Prince of Persia 2008 Reboot (I really liked this one, sue me)

- Rayman Origins (I prefer the 3D Rayman games, but Origins and Legends are a fun yet slightly infuriating time)

- Sports Champions (yet to buy a PS Move but I plan to, can't go wrong with a gimmicky sports compilation)
- Test Drive Unlimited 2 (loved this back in the day, the upcoming 'Solar Crown' titles looks a little rough)

- Wanted Weapons of Fate (an actually somewhat decent movie tie-in, a bit by the numbers but you can curve bullets, what's not to like?)

- WET (most underrated Bethesda title)

I have a note file on my phone filled with PS3 games I want to pick up, going to have a lot of fun going through some old favourites as well as some I missed!

I was traveling in another city and I swore I would be back home with a bunch of ps3 games... I WAS WRONG lol Every game was very expensive and since I didn't wanted to leave empty-handed I bought this game for 5 bucks 🥴 At least was sealed.

 

 

[CairdyBoyBeats]

Dead Space 2 which I just finished minutes ago.

Amazing game that I will never play again lol (It was really hard and stressful for me)

Not sure if I'll get the third one as I've heard bad things and I thought 2 ended perfectly fine.

[johncnstntn__]

Probably the last batch from NA for a long time.  Time to clean up those pesky stickers. You Don't Know Jack and Marvel Superhero Squad DLCs probably will cost me more than these games combined.

I still pick up PS3 titles from time to time. Nier for RPG goodness, & a steelbook edition of Uncharted 3 for my collection. 

Never seen that Uncharted steelbook before. That thing pops of the screen.

Found it in a local retro game shop. It wasn't much, you can probably find one on ebay.

Mine is still sealed,

 

Got my final PAL games in yesterday/today.

As expected, one was still new and sealed, SBK 09

 

One was actually used as advertised, Motorbike Racing Collection. 

[XThordoomX]

Bought it with Bayonetta 2 for Wii U.

I wonder how bad this port really is. By looking at Digital foundry frame rate comparison of various versions it looks pretty bad.

Got these for a very cheap price. It seems my PS3 is nearing its end as the cmos battery is already depleted and when I booted up a game, it froze during gameplay. Hopefully battery replacement and cleaning will prolong my PS3 unit life.

Seen @Gooboid's post about Katamari and thought it looked interesting. Reminds me of Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack.

 

Some cool Tekken stuff as well. Nice additions.

One of the best 3D Sonic Games 

[SmileSlice]

 

Just ordered this, and it’s the North American region too! I was starting to worry I’d have to rely on ordering the Japanese version, since that’s all I saw available online for the longest time at a reasonable price.

 

Haven’t played this since I still owned my Xbox360 years and years ago. Very excited to replay this classic and also hyped for the upcoming remake!

[Spageos]

 

I'm uh, gonna have to see how this is. I have a friend that swears by this series (particularly the ReBirth versions of the trilogy) but I wanted to try the original.

As a MASSIVE, HARDCORE fan of the series, I can sadly attest that the first original game will not give you the best impression (original versions of 2 and 3 are still really good). Pretty well any other in the series, ESPECIALLY the Re;Birth titles, will hopefully have you hooked.

 

The series as a whole is a very chill and fun experience in my opinion, and I can very highly recommend every single one so far, apart from the original. I’m still glad I own it, but I’ve not finished it myself yet, and it has quite some different mechanics than the rest of them.

Corrected spelling and grammar.

[omegaAwol]

Tomb Raider Underworld for completing the series 😁.

I'll be the other side of the coin here and tell you that Hyperdimension Neptunia is the superior experience of the beginning of the franchise story-wise—even superior to Re;Birth1 in that regard. The pacing and development of characters and their relationships feels more organic in the original, whereas Re;Birth1's party feels more like an old group of friends getting back together despite not knowing each other beforehand. The PS3 original is ridiculously primitive by 2023 standards, and the combat has its annoyances, but if you can stomach the sour parts then you're in for a unique experience that even its "remakes" don't capture 1:1.

 

If you have a bit of cash to spare, it's worth picking up the "Events" bundles for the following characters:

https://www.mobygames.com/game/119381/hyperdimension-neptunia-red-events/

It's the most character development either girl receives in the entire franchise, and I found both of their storylines to be rather compelling. You can always watch those events on YouTube though.

 

Whichever way you go, try to give the series at least two games to catch your interest; mk2 brings a massive number of QOL updates and brings the series in line with modern entries.
