That was a very, very sad couple of hours. Better than finding someone to boost with on a dead game no one owns though. Ah, yes! I forgot my self-boosting sessions. Most recently, I did all of the online for DJ Hero 2 in this way. My PS3s are divided by a couple of staircases, so I got quite a workout playing through each individual song. I also boosted Puzzle Quest: Galactrix in this way, as well as Battle Fantasia. Edited February 4, 2020 by starcrunch061 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tianna_Mortis Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 The jump rope trophies in FFIX remastered. After trying for several days to get it the legitimate way, I was looking up help on how to do it when I discovered the timing being off was a pretty common complaint among everyone that was trying to get the trophies. I had my husband try it for me since he had played IX before and, after wanting to break the controller in frustration, he confirmed the timing was way off from the original game. So, I took the advice of just about all the online guides for it and ran a script for those two trophies. Otherwise it was just going to sit there two trophies away from platinum. I don't even feel bad about this since the mini game got messed up. Outside of that, I've done online boosting sessions with my husband when we both have copies of games with online trophies (fighting games in particular) and I used the cloud to reload my save data in Diablo 3 while doing the Hardcore Mode trophies when I died, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamescush147 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 The Traced trophy for Watch Dogs requires that you get tailed 5 times while online. So I went online, placed myself in a good place and then took a 6 hour nap. Got the trophy easy! ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettyBoy Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) Got people to trophy hack 5 games for me (this was years ago). Oh well, you live you learn. It was very retarded of me but no regrets, just life lessons. You could say I was young and foolish.

LittleBigPlanet was my first platinum and 100% and the only trophy on the game that I didn’t do with my own hands was ‘Quick Fire Artiste’ which my cousin obtained for me so that is relatable except my cousin wasn’t 10 as far as I remember and except been useless too or perhaps I was at the time. I refuse to let anyone earn me trophies now because feels rewarding to just do it with your own hands.

gabrieluiz94 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 By just starting the game?dont remember which game was. Thats pathetic but i guess everyone Earned a trophy like that. You know, if u get a trophy for just starting the game it shouldnt be even in the trophy list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sn1per666999 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 I let my console sit idle for the 40 hour trophies in both versions of Saint's Row 4 and did the same thing for the 100 hour trophy in Rainbow Moon. About 40 hours of idle between them all. I also bought a microtransaction for one of the Neptunia games to get OP gear and make things very easy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaltezhan Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) That Witcher 3 DLC trophy where you have to slide non stop for 10 seconds. I was in a cave, clueless about where to go next and started jumping around. Geralt glitched on a rock and started sliding...trophy popped. Bought the shotgun on The Last of Us, Factions. Never touched multiplayer again after the platinum. I consider this my derpest derp, since I had already completed the Firefly journey, and was just about to start the Hunter's. I can't remember if it's trophy related, but I equiped a bunch of auto attack chips on Nier: Automata, and left 2B hacking away in an infinite spawn zone. Went to take a shower, a nap, and came back level 99. Also equipped the same chips on 9S, because I suck at hacking. Felt so cheap that I actually didn't used the trophy shop, and did everything else the legit way. Edited February 5, 2020 by kaltezhan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xywvw Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Emulating 5 android phones on my pc which could barely handle 4 so I had to make all 5 phones extremely small windows and barely being able to see them then setting each phone up and downloading that's you to each phone then while playing 2 10 minute games they would crash and I would have to start the phone again. All I needed was 5 friends or family members to play with. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lava_Yuki Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Using rubber bands to get those "walked X number of steps" trophies. I did this in Tales of Vesperia and FFXIII-2 I also taped town the R1 button in FFXIII-2 for the slot machine to get a fragment needed for the trophy. I was lucky i that it came after 30 mins, but I heard some people not getting it for hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charxsetsuna Posted February 18, 2020 Author Share Posted February 18, 2020 I'm in the process of doing the local multiplayer trophies in doom classic and doom 2 by my self. I've done the 25 kill ones but 100 kills will need me to kill idle player 2, respawn player 2 , move it to a good location and repeat 150 times because I have 75 kills left to do on each game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yowzagabowza Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Auto popping the sound shapes trophies to beat my friend to 100 plats. Bought the last few trophies in Neir Automata, but I don't feel bad about that. Rubber banded a few games, but the trophy was lame, not me. Ugh, grinding the GRID trophy now, I wish there was a way to cheese this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yukiko Miyamoto Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) Literally tried being fake friendly with randoms in Minecraft battle mode, then backstabbing them for a trophy still did it all without boosting, though 😅.

Ashande Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) I think the most pathetic way I’ve earned a trophy was probably in Yomawari: Night Alone. One of the trophies requires you to play for 50 hours. In a game that takes maybe 4-5 hours to beat, and another 2-5 for cleanup under the worst circumstances. Did I wrap a hair tie around my Vita’s thumbstick and anchor it, then plug the Vita in and leave it that way for two days, so my haunted little girl would spend the next 40ish hours just face humping the wall of her house? Damn right I did. Edited August 21, 2023 by Ashande 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conor Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 I have four PS3s and four PS4s to boost online trophies.

Lord_of_Ra Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 The whole point of L.A Noire is to teach how to uncover liars and psychos with techniques from irl psychology on interrogations. I didn't give a crap back then, and followed a full video walkthrough for each and every answer on them to get 5 star ratings on missions asap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
