@Jecht_Ultima Brilliant. I got the reward for Miles Morales before I'd even managed to earn the platinum for either game, even though I was well on my way. Whatever madcap algorithm Sony uses to figure this kinda stuff out needs a serious review!

@nessisonett Yeah, the loss of game shops is a real shame as I always enjoyed popping in whenever I was in town. The pandemic has only accelerated the decline and now my local GAME is gone too. All that's left is CEX. There was a nice little indie store where I'm originally from, but I'm not sure if it's still around.
@RogerRoger I loved Electronics Boutique in the '90s! Those were the days when they actually stocked a wide range of titles and not just chart stuff, and only had small trays of pre-owned titles. HMV and Virgin were really good back then, too.
@mookysam I got Tomorrow Never Dies on PSone from an Electronics Boutique, so my subsequent obsession with all things Bond is their fault. I'll never forget / forgive them for that!

@Arugula Obviously the past eighteen months has slightly changed things, but I tried (and will hopefully try again, providing they've survived lockdown) to get my new games from my local branch of GAME, if only because I was in there so often, I'd be able to strike up friendly conversations with the regular staff. Made each new release feel more of an event.
I'm no traditionalist, but it's nice to retain that small element of the good ol' days as "progress" marches us all towards a future of faceless, impersonal service.

Was wondering if anyone here would be interested in partnering for getting the online trophy in Wreckfest... I had been trying to so it with team games as suggested in another forum but that doesn't seem to work
There were two GAME's locally until around 2 years ago, then one closed and now the other has relocated (from a largish store to a small department of a large department store). There is also a CEX.
I find that I make almost all my purchases from Amazon now sadly.
Used to have 2 GAME stores in the nearest town, plus another one in a Debenhams and a Gamestation. Only got one left before lockdown. Dunno if it is still there as I've not ventured that far since working from home. Most of my purchases these days (even before lockdown) are from a few trusted online sites or digitally.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@DualWielding I’m planning on getting it as I’ll eventually want to plat it (so I have been considering getting the online ones out of the way relatively soonish).
I’m neck-deep on TLoU multiplayer and Ashen atm but I’d be down in a couple of weeks?
@crimsontadpoles Yeah our remaining one is across the road from a CEX too. Seems to be that way on purpose if most cities have them in close proximity.
@crimsontadpoles@nessisonett Oh yeah, there is a CEX in my nearest town too, round the corner from HMV and GAME is a bit further down. And that is it apart from a smallish sainsbury store which has a very small selection of video games.

#34 with Spider-Man: Miles Morales. The NG+ run for the final trophy was pretty easy as I only had to focus on the main story which isn't that long at all.
@Thrillho Congratulations! As much as I understand some people's reluctance towards NG+ modes, it's hard to imagine anybody finding a second run of Miles Morales an offensive proposition.

Got my 16th Platinum for the FMV game Late Shift. It's easy to get as the gameplay is purely making story decisions, but it takes a bit of time since there's multiple endings to get, and no way to speed up or skip scenes.
And not trophies exactly, but I did go back to Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair again and grab all the achievements I had previously missed.
Latest Platinum achieved today > The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan
I played this back when it first came out in 2019, but after one go through I was a bit disappointed it wasn't up to snuff. But after getting the plat for Until Dawn early this year I decided I might as well go for the series and I'm glad I did as I found it better this time having to see most of the choice permutations, also knowing what to expect helps.
I'm hoping Little Hope has a better story as I will be starting that one soonish.
Mass Effect 2 was my first ever platinum way back in the day on PS3. I got it again in the Legendary collection thing. Much easier the second time around thanks to the trophy changes.
@johncalmc cool, I was planning on playing through the Legendary trilogy anyway but didn’t know if I had it in me to go through all of the old trophy requirements having played 1 and 2 thoroughly previously. The fact the plat has been made a bit less time consuming means I’ll probably try for all 3.
@colonelkilgore the trophy lists are much easier and all three games can be just about platinumed in one playthrough (3 requires you to do the first 2 missions of a second playthrough).
