#155 Demons Tier+ (PS5)
Twin-stick, roguelite, retro pixelated goodness - yes this game was very much up my street. Easy enough trophy requirements. Probably around 6-8 hours total.
And the best part is I get to do it all again on the PS4 version which was included in the purchase.

@sorteddan Well done on your latest plat, it sounds like a good palate cleanser between some of the more mammoth games.

@sorteddan Congrats on 155! I’ve never heard of that game but it sounds right up my street. Any online leaderboard related trophies?

Also Powerpyx decided to not do a trophy guide for Atomic Heart. Apparently trophies are broken right now & they aren’t sure whether the trophy tracking works or not.
That’s probably a first😅.

@RogerRoger Congrats on the MGS not-plat. I know it's short but it's crazy something like that doesn't have a plat when you think of all the 10-minute dross in the store that does.

@CaptD Well done on the Mafia platinum. I recently played through the game myself and whilst I did do the chore of the collectibles, I left the 'Classic' difficulty after reading about it. I died quite a few times on the default setting so I didn't think the hard run would be enjoyable enough to go for but maybe I'll consider trying sometime. Whilst there are far too many collectibles, I didn't mind too much as some of the rarer cars were quite fun to tear around in. Especially that go-kart with rockets type car with no brakes.

Nice one @sorteddan too, keeping that tally climbing nicely. And cheers for the occasional in system thumbs ups.

Another couple for me recently Deliver us the Moon and Detroit Become Human.

The former was an enjoyable enough little game although it did start to frustrate near the end. I didn't like the lean into platforming style gameplay and the final puzzle/task drove me up the wall. It reminded me of the drinking games from Watchdogs and for some bizarre reason the game suddenly un-inverted the y-axis control just for that moment. Needless to say it took some getting used to and I died I think 3 or 4 times. The really long load times afterwards didn't help.
I really don't get why there wasn't any sort of tracker for the comics like all the other collectibles so I had to replay every chapter to find what I missed and typically it was the last one I tried. Other than that there was plenty to like about the game.

I really enjoyed going back to DBH for trophies on that after a few years. Although it's just an interactive story I'm down for that every now and then, I used to quite enjoy the choose your own adventure books. I really liked the characters and I would love a follow up of just Connor and Hank solving crimes in the post 'free android' society. It took some commitment for me to make the pair hate each other for the final playthrough.

@BearEatBeets Yeah I liked some of the off beat cars, my favourite was the Blue Flame looky likey and also liked one that looked like an old carriage. I actually had a strange thing happen with my Blue Flame in that it started to coughing and spluttering so I googled it and apparently I had ran out of petrol, I wasnt aware that was a thing in the game.
As for classic difficulty, it wasn't too bad damage wise and not far off normal diifculty imo and in fact my initial playthrough I changed it to easy as I found parts tricky. The only thing with classic I would say is that your health is saved at checkpoints so you need to make sure you go into a checkpoint with decent health. Just put the aim assist on high, skip the cutscenes and you'll be finished before you know it,

Oh and well done on both platinums, both good games which surprised me with how much I enjoyed them.

@CaptD yeah I got quite far into the game before I noticed the fuel gage. Not sure what that adds to the game but it was never an issue for me, I normally wrecked a car long before it ran out of fuel 😁.
Thanks for info regarding the difficulty. Your right though, with the ability to skip unnecessary drives and cutscenes I imagine it wouldn't take too long. It will probably be down to a few tricky moments in the story. I didn't realise you could use aim assist outside of difficulty. I could probably have used that on my normal run as aiming was something I found odd. The amount of times I would be looking at a spot only to stand out of cover and be aiming elsewhere and get hit whilst adjusting.
Anyway you have tempted me to maybe give it go.

@BearsEatBeets congrats on your quick one-two there buddy. Just picked up Deliver Us The Moon in a recent sale… but the fact that the final puzzle reminded you of the drinking mini-game from Watchdogs has put me right off it 😅!

**** me? Nah… **** you (right in the ***)!

Thanks to everyone for the acknowledgement.

@Fight_Teza_Fight
Nope, no online anything of the sort - just need to complete the game on three increasingly difficult tiers and you'll get all trophies naturally. The last tier can be a little tricky but not too much.

@BearsEatBeets
Good stuff. Two that I also got some time in the past. And no prob, I always have a flick through activities feed whenever I boot up the PS4 and give a thumbs up to any shiny or noteworthy achievements (or ones with funny names!). It's the feature I miss on the PS5... Cyber-stalking my friends list.

I’m Commander Shepard and this is platinum #57 for Mass Effect 1: Legendary Edition

A fairly straightforward list for ME1 with the legendary edition having a separate overall trophy list (with no plat) which has trophies related to an Insanity run.

The trophies for taking each separate companion on five missions is a little buggy but there are more than enough missions to get them all.

@Thrillho Nice, well done Commander Shepard the galaxy thanks you for your service.

Good job Commander Thrillo. We, the people, can rest safely tonight thanks to the heroic efforts of you and your crew.

#156 Demon's Tier+ (PS4).
As above.
amusingly the last trophy I needed for the plat was the first one I achieved when i started it on PS5 on Saturday:
The Heroe's Tomb (bronze) 'Die for the first time'

I also like the look of having two plats for the same game side by side on the trophy list.

@RogerRoger It’s not too much of a problem really as I think I’d got it for Ashley before even leaving the Citadel and Liara just from taking her to Noveria.

It just sounds like it’s a bit wonky as it only counts missions that “complete” with the character in your squad and lots of the side missions end on the Normandy where they technically aren’t. So it meant Wrex was with me for ages until it pinged. Luckily, him and Garrus were me go-to guys anyway.

@colonelkilgore Don't worry it's probably just me, although I'm curious if the game messes with the y-axis for non-inverters at that point, as I think that was what took me so long to adjust to. Especially as (hopefully not giving too much away) it is a timed puzzle/sequence.

Congratulations commander @Thrillho. I loved the way Bioware handled the trophies with the Remastered Collection, I went from having none to 3 platinums for one of my favourite gaming series. Are you planning on getting the other 2 as well? 2 is just as simple as the first and 3 is only slightly more awkward with requiring a partial NG+ to fully upgrade a weapon.

@CaptD I've started an attempt at the 'Classic' Mafia. Suffice to say I'm up to chapter 9 and only had to spend a little over an hour and a lot of swearing getting the race done. It would be less annoying if it let you reset the race whenever you want, instead of waiting until the race is practically over. Sometimes I knew I'd messed it up pretty early but had to play keep playing until the prompt came up. Once, I started going the opposite way and actually managed to block the whole track with a pile-up so no-one could finish the race. That let off a bit of steam.
Other than that it's not been too bad, died quite a few times in the church but got through. The molotovs can be pretty annoying as plenty of times they still manage to throw them even if you shoot them before they release.

@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.

BearsEatBeets

@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.
