@sorteddan Well done on your duplicate plat, I do that on rare occasions where I know I want to play the game again. Elden Ring will be one such game.

@BearsEatBeets With the race when I screwed up I just selected Load Checkpoint. Could do that whenever I wanted which is probably why it took me 20 minutes. 😜
Yeah the molotovs are a royal pain in the butt as they can wipe out a full bar of health.
A tip I have, you know when you are escaping a job after whacking someone and gaining a 4/5 star wanted level (trying to avoid spoilers here), just simply run out to get the "lose your wanted level" story progress and then run back into the building you left, hide for a bit until level clears and then just stroll out (whistling is mandatory).

I missed a lot and you guys are really productive these days, so congrats everyone !

#348 God of War Ragnarok - Simply a great game, top quality from start to finish, I really enjoyed it. But I gotta admit that it lacked the "wow" effect, the one that only masterpieces can bring. But an incredible game nonetheless, with a great trophy list.

@CaptD How did you do that? Every-time I pressed options I just got the map. Although as I type I am wondering if I just needed to tab across to the bit with the options?
Good to know about the escaping the 4/5 stars and I have a good idea where I'm going to need that later.

@BearsEatBeets Yeah press option button then L1 or R1 a couple of times to get to the menu.

@BearsEatBeets Yeah, I’ll got for the plat on all three games but I’ll play something else between each instalment.

I actually have the platinums for the original ME2 and ME3 releases so these ones are a doddle in comparison!

@Thrillho Nice. I've left the trilogy installed incase I ever get the urge/time to go for the Insanity trophies to get Legendary stat to 100%.

I managed to knock out the Mafia DE platinum after all just now. Classic difficulty was tricky in the places I thought it was going to be but managed to persevere through my many deaths to get it done. Having been playing through my PS4 backlog for several weeks I look forward to get back to my fast loading PS5. Occasionally my playtime between deaths felt shorter than the wait for the checkpoint to reload.

Well done @BearsEatBeets
I hope you didn't say "why did I let that muppet from PushSq persuade me to platinum this" too many times during your playthrough. 😂

In other news. I've just started Outriders if anyone fancies playing it. A friend suggested we play it and then ditched it so I have one trophy earned and I can't be having that on my profile, not again. 🙄

Congrats @BearsEatBeets, been following your endeavours on this lately and good job on sealing the deal.

Hey @CaptD, I’ll be more than happy to get involved on Outriders but I have a load on the go right now… any chance you wouldn’t mind putting it on hold until April?

All my life I wanted to congratulate a gangster - well done for persevering.

Ping.. The Artful Escape. Someone on PushSq mentioned this game sorry I can't remember who it was, so I took a look and gave it a go (Annapurna published games tend to be interesting). An interesting, relaxing game and definitely needed whilst I'm in the middle of playing Judgment.
Easy platinum with only a few missables, all but one available through chapter select. Difficulty 2/10 plus it is in PS++

@colonelkilgore I might push on playing solo in Outriders, it is quite a large install at nearly 60gb and I'm low on ssd space so I want to whip through it and move on. Thanks for the offer though.

@CaptD no worries dude, enjoy. Congrats on The Artful Escape too btw 😉

Cheers @colonelkilgore @sorteddan @CaptD

And you're good @CaptD, I'm more appreciative for the impetus to fully complete/platinum another game. It managed to stay on the fun enough side of going for, even with it's frustrations. Well done on your latest addition to the tally also, it's good to fit in a quick relaxing game in amongst the lengthier games.

I'm currently eyeing up what of my remaining backlog I care enough about to go back and finish/mop up more trophies. Resogun, Dirt Rally 2.0, Oddworld New 'n' Tasty and Rebel Cops are the ones I'm leaning towards at the moment. I also recently restarted Just Cause 3 but I'm undecided if I want to keep going with that one, not really loving the whole grapple hook mechanic.

@BearsEatBeets
I vaguely remember one trophy on Dirt 2.0 nearly blocking my platinum on that, think you have to get in the top 25% on a daily online time trial or something along those lines. Problematic for me as I was particularly bad at the game! Might be worth checking a guide if you're planning to go for it.

nice one @CaptD
You're having quite a purple patch recently.

You and me are gonna fall out 😉

@sorteddan To be honest I've not considered any of them likely to be a platinum just a higher completion of trophies. With that being said I've already decided to not bother with Oddworld and leaning that way with Rebel Cops after having a quick go of each. I quite enjoyed my quick go of Dirt Rally so I will probably just play through it and see what's left at the end.

@colonelkilgore Maybe if I get a better hang of it I'll enjoy it a bit more, I haven't quite given up on it just yet. But if I do, it's totally the games fault and not that I'm naff at it.

@BearsEatBeets
Ahh got you. I sometimes flick back over the trophy list and see games with unreasonably low percentages and feel a pang of regret or guilt and intend to go back and improve on them. Sometimes I even do - that's how I ended up playing Slay the Spire again last month (improved from 1% to around 30%). tbh I think it's usually games I download from PS+ start up, don't fancy at the time and then forget about. I wish there was an option to delete games from my trophy list to deal with it.
