Congratulations of the Metal Gear Platinums. I keep thinking about going for them but... I just don't have the patience. It feels too big a task. I still need to complete MGSV if I'm being honest.
I have started to do a Crash Bandicoot Trilogy Plat attempt. I will probably give up but gonna give it my all, starting on Crash 2 as it's got the most sentimental value. It's the first game I ever bought myself. I'm the youngest child so even though I've been playing since the Commodore 64, all those games belonged to my siblings.
@ScarletSpidey thanks SS, now I’ve heard those Crash plats are unbelievably difficult, so good luck with those. The MGS do have particularly difficult moments but they aren’t all the time. I found that it’s more the sheer amount of hours involved if anything.
I have the platinum in the first Crash Bandicoot and it is no joke. Those two bridge levels are crazy for the speedruns. I had to run on the rope on the side of the bridge and everything.
I got two thirds of the way through Crash 2 and never finished the trophy list. I'll get back to it at some point.
@johncalmc well done for even getting the plat in the first one. I’m so glad I’m not a fan of mascot-platformers... I really don’t need that ‘project’ hanging over me 🤣
@johncalmc That's impressive, I'm leaving the first one until last as I've heard it's by by far the hardest. My enthusiasm is already waning. Even completing the game is proving a challenge! I dunno how my younger self did it. Still, managed to pick up a couple trophies over lunch so the hunt continues.
@colonelkilgore While I mostly play games for their stories these days, I LOVE platform games. I'm really glad that people are nostalgic for them again.
@ScarletSpidey yeah just coz they’re not my cuppa tea doesn’t mean I don’t understand how people like them at all… I randomly started Astros Playroom the other day and really found it quite fun.
@ScarletSpidey Have you played Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair?
I picked it up after a couple of people on here gave it a glowing recommendation and it’s a fantastic platformer. The titular lair is also quite the challenge!
@RogerRoger I know right... it’s all in the interest of keeping things fresh tbh. MGS 2 & MGS 4 were so intense, that some light and fluffy fun seemed the most appropriate next step.
Just started Guacamelee and will be juggling it with Borderlands 2, which I started yesterday... so they’ll raise the challenge a bit I suppose. My next truly difficult plat challenges will be the first three Devil May Cry games and Returnal... but they’ll be sometime in 2022.
@colonelkilgore Well, as a person who has only 32 platinums, I consider my Astrobot one to be actually of roughly average difficulty. 😅 I have quite a few Telltale platinums in there. At least for Astrobot you had to try to do a little extra. 😄

@Th3solution I’ve got two Telltales myself tbh, I do like something easy-breezy after something super intense. Both Telltale games were after MGSV & TLoU2 (which wouldn’t have been that intense really, if I hadn’t of crammed it in in like three days).
