@velio84 Bloodborne as a second platinum is a great achievement, it's not an easy one ! @WCB That's some good clean up, especially Friday the 13th ! This one is rare. @Keith_Zissou Control is a pretty good game, and I think it's the only game for which I have 2 plats ! ^^
#320 Mafia : Definitive Edition - The only Mafia game I haven't played before, and it's probably my favorite. Setting, story and characters are great, and the remake is really well made. Plat is pretty straightforward, but some gunfights are hard because of the awful aiming. Other than that, I really enjoyed that one.
@Keith_Zissou Yeah when the PS5 version was added to Plus, it was the Ultimate Edition with all the DLC, so I thought why not, the game is pretty short. Otherwise I never replay games, unless it's several years later.
I got the Guardians of the Galaxy Platinum! Fun gun and a good trophy list. My only criticism would be you can't use Chapter Select to pick up collectables you missed. It meant I spent far too much time focused on finding everything on my playthrough than on actually enjoying the story.
I think I might give up my Crash Bandicoot 2 Platinum dream. I'm about 50% of the way with the relics and 90% there with the gems but it's no fun anymore. It's a chore and I'm spending waaaaay too much time on it when I've got a huge backlog of games. I might just complete the other two's stories and be done with it.
@RogerRoger It's a weird choice because there is a Chapter Select but anything you collect via that isn't counted to your save. I almost thought it was a glitch but there's no sign of it being patched out.
Agreed! I think I'm going to try Plat Death Stranding next, my first time playing that game. I was going to wait for Horizon Zero West but I've got a couple of nights to play this week so may as well start something.
@WCB@ScarletSpidey@Cornaboyzzz nice ones guys, I’ve played Guardians… and Mafia: Definitive Edition, I’m still to play either of the PS4 inFamous games though (something that I hope to remedy later this year).
@ScarletSpidey I never bothered with the Crash platinums as the relics were just too much faff. Have you played Crash 4 though? Fantastic game but that has even more ridiculous collectibles including "N Perfect" trophies which I seem to recall were for getting every crate on a level and without dying.
Good luck if you go for the Death Stranding platinum though as I got it not too long ago. My advice would be to up the difficulty to at least a level higher than normal (it doesn't affect anything outside of combat but is needed for some delivery trophies) and also not to worry about getting to the max level with places you find straight away.
I fully agree on your thoughts on the lack of level select for Guardians too; I ended up playing with half an eye on a guide as I didn't want to do everything again for one collectible (although you don't need to get every single one).
@ScarletSpidey Wooow I remember my time with the Crash trilogy, Crash 3 was okay, Crash 1 was an absolute nightmare, and Crash 2 was somewhere in between, pretty hard if I remember correctly.
Did you get the plat for Crash 1 ? If so, you should be able to get this one. If not, switch to Crash 3, it's by far the easiest of all, and the best game overall.
@Thrillho I just started Death Stranding too, I'll keep this advice in mind, thanks !
@Thrillho That sounds intense! I've got Crash 4 on my backlog but it'll be a while before I get to it. I can't imagine I'll even attempt a Platinum run. Thanks for the Death Stranding tip!
@Cornaboyzzz Sounds weird but I actually started with Crash 2. There's a lot of nostalgia tied into that game for me as it's the first game I bought with my own money. I'd played games for like a decade before that but they were all my older brothers games. I was going to go to 3 next and then back 1 ha!
@Keith_Zissou Congrats o the Plat! I tried to get into the comic but it didn't grab me for whatever reason. It's actually just come back, if you're interested in it. Loved the game though, it's on my to replay list.
Very simple Platinum but it can take upwards of 40 hours to get it if you want to actually go through the story and enjoy it. Otherwise you could probably just skip all text and get it in like 1-2 hours maybe. I also thought the Platinum in this game was much easier to get compared to the original Steins;Gate where you had to choose certain lines correctly in a specific order in order to reach certain endings. You basically had to look up a guide for this and it would get rather tedious.
But yeah, great game and very straightforward Platinum!
@RogerRoger Thanks! Yeah, I was actually struggling quite a bit towards the end because some of the other endings just felt a bit long-winded and I just wanted to get the game over with. There's only so much you can alter with the content of a visual novel before it becomes samey, you know?
@Keith_Zissou I've had my eye on that one but never puuled the pin. Congrats.
@LtSarge nice one. I have that one waiting to do but I'm thinking I'll wait for a nice sale of Steins;Gate Elite first, as apparently that is the first game in the series. Congrats btw!

@WCB Thank you! Yeah, Steins;Gate Elite is the first game in the series so definitely start with that one. It's kinda weird that they named the sequel Steins;Gate 0 since 0 is typically associated with a prequel to the original game (Yakuza 0, Resident Evil 0 and so on).
But yeah, the Steins;Gate games are just so good and they've definitely become my favourite visual novels of all time. Hope you'll enjoy them as well!
Platinum #71 - Assassins Creed 2 - I liked it… I imagine that I would’ve absolutely loved it if I’d played it at release on PS3… but some of the systems (I’m looking at you combat and parkour 🤬) are what I would consider a bit janky by today’s standards. Still well worth a play though and I’ll carry on with the remaining Ezio adventures throughout 2022.
