One of the real ****y GTA IV online trophies downā¦ man I canāt tell you the relief of having Fly the Co-op done. Those Rockstar Dev completion times are crazy and while there are strats out thereā¦ I mustāve played Dealbreaker around 40 times this week (with a couple of nights where I didnāt get to bed til past 4:30am) but I hooked up with a real solid group tonight and we all got the trophyā¦ good times! š
Started Dead Space again. I did initially try it in 2019 but I was using a cheap and nasty 3rd party controller and found the gunplay surprisingly janky. Iāve restarted it today but with a proper refurbed dual shock 3 and itās made a massive difference. Plays like butter fair play. Really enjoying it.
Grand Theft Auto IV - finallyā¦ FINALLY managed to pop the Auf Weidersehen Petrovic trophy. It popped around 90% of the way through my second go aroundā¦ the relief is ****ing palpable! š The plat is now on, with just one more online trophy leftā¦ the grind to level 10 for the Wanted trophy. Which as Iāve alluded toā¦ is a massive grind but Iām far more confident of that popping than I was of AWP.
@Yousef- oh yeahā¦ and all 200 Flying Rats exterminated š
Dead Space - yeah, so the more I playā¦ the more of a masterpiece Iām making of it. Im probably 60% of the way through my first playthrough and just really enjoying it. Iām hoping to get all three of the series done over the next few months and can only hope that playing all of them in such close proximity doesnāt leave me feeling burned out on the series.

Great stuff on the GTA, just a shame that you nearly played all of the trophy requirements again.
Dead Space is awesome, I imagine it' still looks great with oodles of atmosphere and one of the current gen remakes that wasn't really required imo but I'm glad they did it anyway.
Old gen version is a harder plat than current gen btw.
@CaptD yeah I do have the Remake but having earned a couple of trophies for the original on ps3 back in 2019, I felt obliged to play through that one first. Well that one, 2 and 3 first š .
In regards to GTA Iām just glad it popped mate. Itās so notoriously buggy that I was starting to worry it wouldnāt pop before I hit 300, let alone 200.
All of the GTA IV online trophies are now done! Manā¦ Iām pretty ****ing psyched rn. This was a game that I wanted to return to for a whileā¦ but due to the insane online requirements, I always just hoped that a remaster would be released where the online was removed (like Red Dead Redemption)ā¦ but really glad I took the gamble. Have met some really nice people along the way (& some idiots š ) butā¦ itās now categoricalā¦ the plat is most definitely on! š„³

Oh man, oh man, I did not notified of the ping here :0
Hell yeah, those fricking rats are the worse, whole 5 hours of mindlessly driving around v.vā¦.
Glad you took of itā¦v.v
Congrats on crossing out the online stuff, now you only have the great story and great side stories to enjoy :000
@Th3solution itās a crazy hobby/habit/obsession tbhā¦ and I couldāve probably cured cancer, solved world hunger and implemented world peace with the time and effort Iāve put into trophy hunting these past 5 years butā¦ humans š¤·āāļø. Weāre a strange bunch š .
I love the chase of a tough platinum particularly for some masochistic reason though. One that is not necessarily just difficult but also one requiring me to undertake loads of research, reach out to people with past experience, create networks with like-minded people wanting the same thing at the same time and working together to achieve what we all thought was un-achievable until less than a month ago. Little projects like this occupy my mind which can be far too busy if I havenāt got something to focus on and gives a lovely sense of peace when achievedā¦ until the next one š¤Æ
@Yousef- the single player stuff is mostly complete too tbh. Just have some mopping up to do for the 100%. Iām gonna leave it for now though as Iām gonna save GTA IVās plat for my next milestone. So Iām gonna go plat another 13 games and then return to Liberty City in around November.
Although Iām only halfway through my impossible run on Dead Space, Iāve made a start on Prince of Persia (2008) this morning andā¦ not sure how I feel about it yet if Iām honest. The presentation, lore and narrative all seem fine but the combat seems a little bit hit and miss (though it did start to click with me during the first boss fight) and the traversal seems very janky. Iāve jumped to my death about four times already, when I wasnāt even intending to jump at all. Apparently itās not a long game, so Iāll no doubt see it through to its conclusion and hopefully end up liking itā¦ just not overly convinced of that right now.
In regard to Dead Space, I was hoping to get the impossible run complete over the weekend but didnāt get a chance to game at allā¦ so Iām gonna try and get a mission or two done per day in which case, it should š¤ be done by the end of the week. Really enjoying the survival-horror aspect of the impossible difficulty btw. I just had an over-abundance of ammo, health packs, stasis and air canisters during my Normal run and the added need to ration everything really adds to the experience.
Played a bit more Prince of Persia (probably 75% through it now) and itās grown on me. Iāve played some absolute ps3 bangers this year and this wouldnāt be in that category butā¦ itās decent. The traversal is still super janky but you start to understand what the game wants from the player and you start to play into that, which helpsā¦ a bit š . And the combat, which is a very minor part of the game tbh is not as bad as Iād originally thought. Not bad š¤
@Yousef- so this one is simply Prince of Persia which was released in 2008 and to my knowledgeā¦ an attempted reboot (the second of the series). Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands was released 2 years later and a continuation of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (the first reboot of the series).
Funnily enough I picked up Forgotten Sands the same day I picked this one up and plan on playing it in a couple of months.
