MisterKIKI Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 I can understand that a Platinum would be unobtainable if online trophies hadn't been unlocked (e.g. Channel Surfer), but what if you only need one more offline trophy? Is it typical the final Platinum requires game specific online services to still be in operation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RNumbers Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Pretty sure the shutdown announcement specifically says you will be able to earn the offline trophies still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterKIKI Posted January 28, 2020 Author Share Posted January 28, 2020 (edited) Getting the offline trophy shouldn't be an issue. What I'm confused about is, the announcement seems to indicate that even if you've only got offline trophies left and unlock them after the 31st of Jan, the platinum torphy won't unlock.

zeero7uk Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 A platinum pops as soon as you earn your last trophy, online or offline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timpurnat Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 You'll still be able to earn offline trophies, the problem is that you won't be able to re-download the songs on ps3, so don't delete them. You also won't be able to purchase new songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong, all your purchased songs will be available in the Download section, you just can't find them by searching, meaning you can't buy anything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I get it, because the plat is on the list of trophies they deem unobtainable after shutdown. No, that should be just for new players who haven't earned the online trophies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel any better, there are no Playstation games (that aren't glitched) that the platinum doesn't pop when all trophies are earned. If you earned the online trophies before the shutdown, earning the offline trophies are local conditions that when they are fulfilled will unlock the trophy. The announcement only says this: Quote You will not be able to unlock the following trophies: Channel surfer Concert debut Stars in my eyes SingStar™ If you have unlocked those previously, you'll unlock the Platinum once all trophies have been earned.

They did the same thing with Ducktales and Castle of Illusion, but both games are still in my Recent Download list from PS3 Store. So everything you bought is still yours.

They’ve gone out of their way to say PS2 and PS3 will definitely not be able to redownload deleted purchases, but PS4 will be able to. Seems like they’re being specific because they know what they’re talking about. In this case, you’re right in that it’s still yours, you’re just not going to be able to get it again on a PS3. Time will tell what happens with this one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacey_Dweeb Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 I'm like 99% sure @DaivRules and @timpurnat are correct. They've clearly stated that users won't be able to download onto a PS3 again. However, nearly all of the songs are cross platform purchases, so you can redownload a song you bought on the PS3 onto your PS4 from your download list section on the Playstation Store. If I was using a PS3 for this game, I'd be sure to install everything in the next couple of days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I really recommend doing that. Don't quote me on this but I don't think you can buy some songs on disc on ps3(you can do this on ps4). But still platinum is extremely hard without M pop muzik so don't forget to buy it and download it. You also NEED 1 duet song and rap song, amazing grace by Susan Boyle really helps with vibratos. So even if you have 10 random songs downloaded it won't really help you, you need this specific songs to achieve the platinum.

PS4 camera is required, it really sucks because it's very expensive and useless for other games(unless you own a VR lol). I recommend that you buy a used one on eBay or buy it with a VR bundle Also, if you don't have enough phones for Singstar app you CAN use ps3 Singstar microphones on ps4.

PS3 SingStar downloads worked different and are not in your download list. Even before the shutdown you couldn’t download them again unless you contacted support. PS4 downloads are normal so that is why it says PS4 purchases can still be downloaded but not PS3. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thezooniverse Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 PS3 songs can only be downloaded once and are tied to your console. If for any reason you have to download them again you had to contact Sony support and provide the serial number of the console you used. They then unlock your songs after a few days and you can download them again. Once the servers shutdown you will not be able to download PS3 songs again, the store won't exist to download them from even if Sony deactivate the old console, which they won't. I had to do this when my hard drive failed a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roronora_Zoro666 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Singstar just got delisted on all Platforms and the plat is 100% unobtainable on PS3. It cannot be redownloaded, whatsoever. PS4 is plausible with Singstar Celebration, thankfully your songs are saved on service list. If you deleted the game on PS3, then you are forever locked out. Thanks to my friend, DAGGERDRAVEN for checking. The game still works offline, but once deleted, that is it. Also, servers are already down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
