PS3: 2nd platinum trophy

It took me 32 hours since 29th September to finally get the Burnout Paradise Elite trophy. This translates into 44 owned cars, 4 bikes and 1300 miles travelled.

Most trophies are very easy and just take time. Amongst the more frustrating ones are the midnight challenges on the bike – although the light-conditions are realistic, it takes some serious practice to beat the challenges (you can’t see beyond 10-20 metres).

All online timed challenges are super frustrating. A timed challenge consists of two parts. The first part is that a number of players meet at a certain location and the 2nd part is the actual challenge. The frustrating part is that players joining the timed challenge either exit the game because they are incapable of completing the challenge or they just don’t join up for the challenge. In short a punch of pricks which ruin the experience. Once a player leaves the timed challenge, you have to start all over again – damn annoying if you are almost at completion of part 2.

It took in excess of 6 hours just to get 10 timed challenges done. Once I heard that familiar “bling” on the PS3 and got the last Burnout trophy I was super-satisfied – lol.

Drake: Trophies

If you are chasing your PS3 trophies you will be delighted to know that if you play Drake on Hard you will be able to collect 3 trophies (for completing the game on Easy, Normal and Hard) at once.

Contrary to reports on the web, you are allowed to use the different Weapons via the “Rewards”-option. The 92FS-9mm is my favorite choice and I completed Hard just with this weapon. Now it’s on to Crushing mode to get the last Gold-trophy (and Platinum for unlocking all trophies within the game) – smile.

PS3: Trophy whore

Ever since the release of the 2.40 PlayStation 3 firmware, PS3 gamers everywhere have been clamoring for titles beyond Super Stardust HD to earn Trophies in. While a slew of new titles coming later this year will offer support for the system, some studios are going back and patching existing games to give players another reason to play through their games again. One of these updated titles is be Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, Naughty Dog’s excellent island adventure game released late last year.

The Uncharted patch was released yesterday and I have officially become a PS3 trophy whore. 3 more trophies to go in SSHD, some 15 to go in Eden and a good 40 to go in Uncharted.
