#124: Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary (PS5)
This new PS2 Classic re-release was a real nice surprise. Unlike the similarly re-released Legend, it doesn't simply clone the trophy list from the PS3 HD version (and thank goodness for that, because those Time Trials are no joke). A very pleasant platinum for a very pleasant game.

Since it's been a while, I thought I'd also share my current trophy totals...

I obtained all 36 trophies in Super Neptunia RPG, including the platinum, which means as of this morning, I have my very first platinum trophy.

@Nep-Nep-Freak Wow, somebody's first platinum! That's cause for celebration, nicely done!

Couple of platinums this week.

First up, the Suikoden remasters. It was an absolute joy to play through these games again. I tried out characters I've never used before and basically took my time to explore the world in full, as though it was the first time again. Bliss.

I realised I've not gained many plats this year, so I had a look at a list of quick platinums amd settled on Indika, which I've been meaningtoplay for a while. An odd game whose message I'm still processing.

@Gremio108 I have a friend who's a big Suikoden fan, so I've seen a lot of screenshots and clips from those recent remasters thanks to him and I gotta say, it looks like they did a real nice job! Glad you enjoyed, and congratulations on the platinum(s)!

@Werehog Yeah they've done a great job. I've seen a few rumbles of discontent from some corners of the internet regarding the sprites but I love the look of these new versions. It just reinforced how special these games are to me.

I was planning to platinum the TR survivor trilogy but I noticed the horrendous multiplayer trophies. Such a downer lol.

@Gremio108 My friend told me there'd been fan grumbles, yeah. Happens to everything. There's always gonna be somebody out there who takes issue with an artistic upgrade, especially when it doesn't align with what they had in their head (either individually, or collectively as a community). The most important thing is, playing the remasters successfully re-captured your original feelings and emotions, and that is a lot less common. I'm so pleased they worked for you!

@Spectralmews If you don't mind an incomplete platinum collection, Shadow of the Tomb Raider doesn't have any multiplayer trophies. It's why I have its platinum, but not the others.

@Spectralmews @Werehog you can get the Rise of… plat without mp too… the trophy guide is very misleading as the only actual mp trophies are dlc related.

@graymamba Ah yeah, that's the co-op mode they added, isn't it? Comes with a separate list.

My OCD won't let me platinum a game that I can't get a 100% trophy percentage for, but it's still good to know for folks who don't have that problem. Thanks for the reminder!

@Werehog @graymamba I think I'll just give the first one a skip tbh. I can't be doing with mp grinds anymore lol.
