Re: The Trophying/Achievement Thread

Okay Neph, just think about this for a second. You are buying whore games so you can cover up your whoring because one's especially bad. This is a sign that you have a serious problem.

[Krubixcube]

Do you even ENJOY playing games anymore? =p

[Nephilimi]

Haha, buying whore games to cover up really bad whore games. When you put it that way it doesn't sound very good...

Sometimes... I enjoyed playing Bioshock... and Far Cry... and Xcom... so about 1 out of every 10 games I play.

Excluding trophies, I don't enjoy playing most games. I play them for the experience or the story. For example I didn't enjoy playing Mass Effect or Walking Dead or Spec Ops. But I loved all three games.

[Krubixcube]

I'd say enjoying a story is enjoying a game though. I don't ENJOY playing turn based games but I like the games...

[Nephilimi]

Does anyone still have Burnout and wouldn't mind helping me with a couple trophies? I don't need that 8 person one because I think there's a way to glitch it, but I would need the take a picture when you're winning and such. Also I might buy some DLC depending.

[Captain N]

Everytime someone brings up Burnout I kick myself for not buying it when I saw it and now it's too expensive to justify the price for me. But I'll most likely get it later on because I must try it lol

I saw Neph playing Sonic the Fighters, so how was it?

[Motinator]

Some of us were talking about playing Need for Speed Most Wanted some time. But I'd still enjoy Burnout too

[Captain N]

Another game I still don't have If you guys ever go back to Hot Pursuit, then I'd be down for that.

[Nephilimi]

Is burnout expensive? I thought the ultimate edition was like 20 or 30 bucks for all the dlc and everything.

I played again for the first time today and it was actually a lot more fun and less frustrating than I remember. Like a lot better than I remember. If everyone played it again that would be awesome. You guys were always so good I was lucky anytime I didn't finish dead last.

As far as online trophies I guess I only need help with the camera trophy, 10 freeburn challenges, be on the blue team, 10 timed challenges and 5 bike freeburn challenges. I don't know how long the freeburn challenges take. The 8 person stadium and 8 person bike ride are likely impossible at this point.

Is there any setting or anything that helps you figure out where to go during a race?

[ajapam]

I could help with Burnout trophies, Neph. Just give me at least a day's notice before you try in case I haven't gotten around to updating it yet. Tht game has like 53 updates to install and half of them are pretty big

[Captain N]

Not sure if the PS3 is region free otherwise I might have gone for the UE of Burnout. Amazon has the regular greatest hits one for 30+ bucks and not sure I want to pay for something that should be 20.

[Miraculous Kaydybug]

PS3 is region free for 99.9% of the games. The only one i know that's region locked is P4A, any other game from another region should be fine.

Awesome thanks. Yeah it took almost an hour today for the update.

[TripOpt55]

I'd play some Burnout. I wouldn't mind doing some challenges and stuff again.

If we chose easy ones, 10 freeburn challenges would take like fifteen minutes.
Keeping to the route in a race is always my biggest problem. If you really pay attention though, your car will turn on its single before a turn and the signs on the top of the screen will flash.

[Nephilimi]

Would anyone want to play tonight?

[Captain N]

Hey Neph, I always wanted to ask you something, when you finish getting the platinum for some games, like let say the ones you buy only to get the platinum, what do you do to those games? Do you keep them or do you sell them? I mean I've always been curious.

[Nephilimi]

I have a rental service so I use that for most of my whoring games. A rental service is essential for every whore. Sometimes I buy a game off Amazon if it's under ten bucks but then I usually trade it in, even if it's like 2 dollars.

Outside of whoring games I'm just like everyone else. I trade in some games but usually keep most of real games that I buy.

Thanks so so so much for you help tonight Ajapam. So many burnout trophies and now I'm so very close to 90% I can taste it. Burnout is super fun and we should totally do games night for it.

[Krubixcube]

Every once in a while, I come into this thread just to troll Neph. Neph...you make me sad.

TEHEHEHE *runs away*

[ajapam]

I agree with Neph, we should do Burnout nights. Most Wanted is alright, but it's really just a downgraded Burnout Paradise with cops thrown in

[TheMatt]

I'd love to play Burnout some night. I think the multiplayer is much better-- mainly because it handles races better. It'd probably take me 10 years to download all the update, so let me know a few days in advance if we're gonna play! haha

[Captain N]

Gonna have to force myself to buy Burnout if you guys are gonna do game nights for it. Hopefully I can pull off enough points on Bing to get some Amazon giftcards for it lol

[Motinator]

Heck, I might say burnout does cops better. With the DLC, we get to chase each other! Actually, even Hot Pursuit did that better, haha

[TripOpt55]

I finally got the PS All Stars platinum. Arcade mode was kind of a grind for me. It is my 23rd platinum.

[Captain N]

Congrats Trip! Hopefully I get that game at some point this year.

[BretBaber]

I loved PS All Stars until I got the platinum, now I haven't played it much since then. Got the platinum for the Vita version as well. Great game, just wish the characters were cheaper and I'd probably play more online. I see your last trophy was Toro, the worst character to play with.

[BretBaber]

I have been working on getting the platinum trophy for Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando. The problem is I have one trophy left, and from what I read online it is terribly glitchy. I've successfully done what was needed 5 or 6 times and nothing. It's a skill point on planet dobbo. You have to defeat every enemy only using weapons from the first Ratchet and Clank game. I've read that you can't let them go into the water, that you have to go to a different world and reset the game and then go back, that you can't use upgraded armor, etc.... I've read a lot of shit and I've tried them all. I spent a lot of time trying to get this platinum trophy and if a glitch denies me I'll be very pissed.

[Motinator]

I'm pretty sure I was never able to get that skill point on the original PS2 version either. I never read into it much but I definitely remember being frustrated by it not working.

[BretBaber]

If there was a problem with the PS2 version you'd think they'd work hard on fixing the problem when they ported it to an HD classic. I'm gonna do some more research online, because I don't want all of this work to be wasted.

[pspiddy]

Bret should get his happy ass back to grinding the Ni No Kuni plat. Sinner.
