The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

Wohooo just got my first ever gold trophy. GTA IV's Liberty City Minute....now I can move on to the other smaller ones.

Cool!

I only picked up one trophy last night on Shaun White Snowboarding but I was a little miffed that it was just a bronze. I completed Shaun's Quest in the game which took me probably 4 or 5 hours of game time and I only got a bronze for it. Over the course of completing it I picked up about 3 or 4 other bronzes so that's cool, but I was hoping it would at least be a silver for finishing that.

I don't think I'll ever see a Platinum trophy.

I plan on getting it for Uncharted if my TV will make it without a controller being thrown through it.

One shot kills on full health are cool.

The sad thing is from what I've read online the Uncharted platinum is one of the more "gettable" platinum trophies out there...but I agree from the few games I have that support trophies, and the trophy lists I've seen online platinums are tough to get.

I thought the burnout paradise platinum was pretty easy since it didn't require the completion of all the in-game achievements. Shaun White and Prince of Persia seem pretty doable as well, especially Prince of Persia. Hopefully I'll be able to get those platinums.

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

There are a lot of doable games out there just as long as you have patience.

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

I always read what is the big deal with achievements/trophies on other boards. For me, they have been making me go back and play through games several times the last year. I think many have been doing the same.

That's exactly what it is for me gears. I posted it in my blog but playing through GTA IV is something I probably wouldn't have ever done if it weren't for trophies. Now I'm contemplating getting 100% in it because of a trophy. The fact that it can extend the life of a game is really cool, especially since games are 60 bucks a pop and I'm a broke college kid. I have to be super selective about the games I buy and trophies help me get more bang for my buck.

I got 4 more Shaun White Trophies last night and this morning I can tell this is a game I'm gonna go for the platinum on, it's a lot of fun.

Gentlemen, I am proud to present...

OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Standings: Week 1



AUKEVIN "SQUEAKS" BY TO CLAIM TOP SPOT

Week 1 of the OS PS3 Trophy Collectors competition has got off to a thrilling start, with only one completion percentage point separating nos. 1 and 2.

Aukevin claimed the #1 spot in the opening week, narrowly beating out SqueakyD 6-30% to 6-29%. Altimus, MizzouTigerrr and Fishepa rounded out the top 5.

The field has only collected a scant two platinum trophies, as Aukevin and SqueakyD both nabbed the high award for Burnout Paradise. No word on if this passion for manic driving has affected their insurance rates.

Other Notes

• ASB37 wins the "Most with the Least" award for having the highest trophies per game ratio (30.0). He has only obtained trophies in just one game, Grand Theft Auto IV. He has asked me to only refer to him as Mr. Bellic in the future.

• The 12 current participants have racked up a total of 1478 trophies, which coincidentally is the same number of times FootballForever has sold one system and bought another.

• Each week I will choose one game to see who has the most trophies for that title. The first "Game of the Week" for next week will be Rock Band 2. Hire a roadie, crank up the volume, butcher the vocals of "Livin' On A Prayer," and get to earning those trophies!

• Want to participate in this competition? Either send me (MizzouTigerrr on PSN) a friend request on PSN or post in this thread.

• You can access these standings (and those in the future) through a link I have made on the first post of this thread. This will make it easier to find these posts.

So, what do you think? Where do you stand? What games will you be playing over the next week in order to move up those standings? Let's get the discussion going.

Well done rspencer. And - OMG, I'm not last!

Unfortunately I won't be getting in on the Rock Band trophy hunt...

I guess you don't have Rock Band 2? I'll try to pick a game you (and a lot of other people) have the week after that.

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

good job Spence. Unfortunately I won't be going after any Rock Band trophies either.

[Altimus]

Re: The Official OS PS3 Trophy Collectors Thread

Great job man.

I don't know how you two got Platinum in Burnout. I like the game but sometimes it frustrates me because of the half sim/half arcade racing.

I'm looking to get Platinum at Uncharted and COD World at War sooner or later.
