Games are art, don't let people tell you that what you enjoy is a waste of life.
Really nice to see some great marketing for Avowed. This has been one of my more anticipated titles this year. Just finishing up Indiana Jones too so Xbox are on a roll.
Before you depart to the Living Lands, we're making a stop in a mysterious place filled with adventure—New York City.

See the living, breathing world of Eora in action at Times Square! #Avowed

I don't know how to avoid politics. I don't have the mental capacity for it all and seeing people just at each others throats sucks. If you use the word hate on the left or the right you're just as bad as each other, end of.

Platinum Trophy #8 - The Stanley Parable

This game made me laugh... Sometimes. It made me think... Sometimes. Some great ideas here but maybe just not enough to keep me fully invested all the way through.

However I'm collecting decent platinums at quite the rate and not shovelware!
January 22, 2025 at 8:16 PM
Realizing that my next few platinums are all very long. May be stuck at 7 for a while but number 10 is one everyone seems to have and a PlayStation essential.

Platinum trophy #7 - Need for Speed Hot

This game has aged but I kind of miss the age of gaming where we could rely on every triple A game to be at least this quality. Some really challenging gold medals in this one for the plat, now to continue saving Tsushima!

Platinum trophy #6 -
Slay The Spire

Whooo 110 hours of deck building later I've gotten the platinum for this near perfect game, you will learn the behaviours of enemies and synergies between cards and relics like the back of your hand by the end and learn to love the game as you go!

Platinum Trophy #5 -
Sonic Frontiers

I'd like to preface this with the fact that I'm absolutely not a sonic fan but once you get used to some of the sonic team jank there's plenty of fun to be had!
also just a really chill completion!

Platinum Trophy #4 - Animal Well

This game was exactly the pallette cleanser I needed, really challenging puzzles and a super dense metroidvania map. I must also be a wimp cause some sections of this really freaked me out, kangaroo encounters and the ghost run for the disk mostly.

I finally beat ascension 20 on slay the spire! This is one of those games that you appreciate more as you play.
December 30, 2024 at 3:12 PM
Is the Ghost of Tsushima multiplayer completely dead or are people still quite active on it?
December 19, 2024 at 9:02 PM
Slay the spire may end up being a platinum that takes over 100 hours but it's so addictive.

Anybody got a favourite character to play?

When I was in highschool (over a decade ago, yikes) I really wanted to be in game development but was told it was an unrealistic goal.

To this day I wish I hadn't listened to my teachers. Perhaps it'll still happen one day.
December 15, 2024 at 10:16 PM
Going to try something a little dangerous for my next platinum and that's Slay The Spire. Now at least I know this game but I've never thought about doing 100%
This one might take some time.

Platinum Trophy #3 - The Last of Us Part 1

I know it's a sin to have slept on this game for so long but I understand why it had the effect it did on the industry. Some of it may be slightly dated a decade later (looking at you ladder and floating pallet puzzles) but overall a gorgeous piece of Art!
December 13, 2024 at 1:30 PM
Just about to start The Last of Us Part 1. I can't even count the amount of times this game has been suggested to me over the last decade. Time to start ticking off all the PlayStation first party.

Platinum #2 - Cult of The Lamb

Phew, this game has some outrageous RNG based trophies but I got through them all (including DLC) in 32 hours of game time.
Would highly recommend this one to anybody who's a fan of village management or rogue likes.

Any suggestions for game number 3?
December 12, 2024 at 10:16 AM
Cult of the lamb has really been a great journey, however, it starts to wear thin in the second half of the game. Some great art and music with tonnes of personality however the curse of trophy hunting makes for quite the grind.
December 9, 2024 at 11:23 AM
When going for the completion on a game, do you go for the full completion including updates and dlcs or just the original platinum trophy?
December 8, 2024 at 5:03 PM
After some deliberation I've decided to start Cult of the Lamb as my next game.

Heard really great things about this one. Anybody completed it?

Platinum Trophy #1 - Astros Playroom

And not long after booting up the short and sweet Astros Playroom is done. This game oozes charm and has definitely convinced me to buy Astro Bot soon!

What should I do Next? need suggestions!
December 6, 2024 at 10:39 PM
This game is some start to my time on PlayStation.

I have only ever played on Xbox before so all this new stuff is exciting. Astros playroom is gorgeous and this controller is on a whole other level.
December 6, 2024 at 9:31 PM
Since it comes with the box it's only right that my first platinum would be this one

Astros playroom. Wish me luck!
December 6, 2024 at 7:57 PM
Just unboxed my new PS5 and decided to create a fresh profile. Time to start my trophy hunting.

Anybody with platinum suggestions please let me know!
