@BearsEatBeets Congrats on the plats.

@sorteddan @SirWoolsley @colonelkilgore Cheers. Got them all in about a week and half but 2 are quite quick games and the others have been played on and off for a long time.
My equal apologies in advance @colonelkilgore if your enticed to get the very similar Lara Croft Go. 😁

@BearsEatBeets wow now that is impressive!

good job,if only i had such dedication!

@RogerRoger @jdv95 I've found myself in the mood for chilled, puzzle style games recently which tend to lend themselves to fairly simple/quick platinums and other 2 just happened to complete at a similar time. I was checking a few minutes ago and I started both of them a little over 7 months ago. I'll probably go a few months now without getting any more.
Maybe I'll try and line up 5 for my next post.

@BearsEatBeets Nice work on that quartet of plats. They must have been popping left right and centre 😀

@BearsEatBeets Awesome work!

@BearsEatBeets yeah that's a fair few plats to get quickly. Congrats!

#122 in the bag for Maquette (PS5)
As ever with me and puzzlers, wouldn't have been possible without internet guides for whenever I get stuck.

@render @Thrillho @WCB Thanks 👍.

Congrats on getting the Maquette plat @sorteddan . I had to look up a few levels for Hitman Go too. I hate to not figure out something myself but sometimes you can just hit a wall and there's only so much time you want to spend on it.

@sorteddan Great job on that one. I started doing those speed runs so will have to get those finished one day 👍

@sorteddan nicely done buddy… if it wasn’t for guides I’d have considerably less platinums in all honesty 😉

@RogerRoger @BearsEatBeets @render @colonelkilgore
Cheers peeps.
I have no qualms with using guides for when I get stuck, especially like I said with puzzle games. I lack the patience to try every combination of things in every area and without a guide would most likely give up. Was a pretty interesting concept for a game and I really enjoyed the soundtrack.

And @render if you have another screen (laptop etc) just have the YouTube vid on and you can do them all in less than a bour.

@sorteddan Will give that a go 👍

Just finished off another platinum with A Monster's Expedition which went from a delightful and entertaining puzzle game into an exercise into research and commitment. It basically involves moving tree trunks around to create paths to the next island in a chain.
Getting around all the islands was extremely addictive and cleverly thought out. I only got stuck a few times before getting back to the ferry and seeing the credits roll. Then comes finding all the fiendishly devised alternate routes to find the 'friends'. Because of the way the game is structured with branching (no pun intended) routes trying to look up the bits I missed was very tricky. Still it made finding the solution online almost as rewarding as figuring it all out myself (which probably would have never happened).

@BearsEatBeets that’s a super-productive June your having there buddy, we’ll done! I haven’t heard of A Monster’s Expedition before but just checked metacritic and it seems high quality.

I finally did the one last thing I had to do in Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered to get the platinum about a week ago (I had been one trophy short for months). Today PlayStation emails me congratulating me for getting the platinum in Marvel's Spider-Man....... Miles Morales. Way to go, Sony.

I guess this shouldn't be too surprising since the PS5's UI is not without it's random glitches still. The Games page showing all the games you've played being the biggest mess, with a game somebody could be playing right now being shown as Last Played: 5 hours ago (an example), games showing up multiple times even though there's no demo for it, and the game played time not being accurate. I also was unable to compare trophies with somebody else because it didn't think I played the game even though I have dozens of trophies for it.

@BearsEatBeets Another one 🤪 congrats 👏

@KilloWertz Congrats too. I heard the person who checks peoples platinums and sends out those emails is Jim Ryan himself so give the guy some slack, he’s very busy 😉

@render Thanks, and that would explain a lot. He probably has no idea which Spider-Man game is which anyways, which would explain the email.

@KilloWertz congrats buddy, always satisfying to finally mop up that last outstanding trophy… even if Sony mess up the congratulatory email.

@BearsEatBeets @KilloWertz
as ever Good work on the platties people

And especially to @RogerRoger
Also good work on achieving that one for [insert random game that you probably haven't played ... erm gonna say Fortnite, yeah excellent work on that!]
