On 100% completion for never alone and trying to scoop the remaining cubes in fez (masterpiece game imo) I have noticed neither have a platinum trophy. Why is this?

Sony has really dumb (and inconsistent) stipulations about what's allowed a Platinum Trophy and what's not. My personal opinion is that every game should have a Platinum Trophy - and it does, at least, appear to allow most PSN games to have one these days. It would appear that those particular developers never got the memo, though.

You say Fez, and I get all giddy.

Say what you want about Phil Fish, that game is literally pixel perfect.

Ok cool, they should I agree. Fez is an absolute mind boggler. You need a platinum for just working out the tetrominoes.

I agree, the last few cube puzzles are too abstract though. the tetrominoes I worked out from the big block when you move and it shows a Tetris piece on the screen and I was fortunate enough to then notice the rt,lt,rt achievement and clocked it. The maps and hidden ledges I solved as well. But I'm stuck on a clock and stuck In a grassy ledge room with nothing else in it.

I've always figured PSN games usually don't have platinums. Although most of the games I have from PSN are rereleases of older games (Street Fighter 3, Sonic Adventure and Jet Set Radio), so that might have something to do with it? The one original PSN game I have is Scott Pilgrim, and that doesn't have one either.

I figured out the L R codes from the (slight spoiler) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>black board in the school, it shows a step by step break down of how to do it (separate the pattern/rotate left). Are you fetching the anticubes or the regular cubes? If you're down to the last few anticubes I suppose you're in NG+ and can see in first person mode? Have you found out how to decode the alphabet? And do you mean the grassy ledge room that keeps repeating itself up and down? Look harder if so!!

It is very abstract and like I said the other day one puzzle in particular has not been worked out, though the solution was found through brute force no one knows why thats the solution. Plus they reckon puzzles still remain unfound, Even the soundtrack contains secrets when run through a spectogram:

I wouldn't feel too bad about using guides or hints for some of the harder (known) puzzles..and I hope people keep trying to work on some of the hidden secrets that im sure still exist.

@kyleforrester87 if you are referring to the black monolith, a codecracker has the actual method to get the answer but its so utterley insane and involves so much work I'm surprised anyone could of solved it. I will try to get a link. I think once they had forced the answer the method and reasons behind it became easier to solve.

As good as a game Fez may be, I won't buy it off principle alone. Won't support a dev like Fish.

Now back to the actual topic, there are some games that despite having a trophy system do not have platinums, and it irks me, generally because those are the games I actually complete (Trophy wise).

I was the same. Glad I got over that, though.

Yeah that bugged me too, why have an episodic game when it doesn't have platinums :/
