one of the things that stings the most as a trophy hunter is not having plats/100% in games you love.

do you guys have that too?

Spidey Shattered dimensions
Bioshock
Deadspace 2
Split/Second
Critter Crunch

probably more, they are games that i've tried but because of certain things it will be next to impossible for me to plat/100%

not having the plat in the rock bands doesn't really bother me cause I don't play all the instruments and such, or ghostbusters, cause the multi is so crazy and glitchy.

but when I realize I can't get if for a game I love that always upsets me. (baring ridiculous amounts of practice and broken controllers at which point is it really worth it.)

I actually have that one, and I loved the game. But boy was it frustrating. Definitely a broken controller from it.

I'm with you though, I would love to plat the games I enjoy most, but sometimes it isn't doable. I'm in love with Rayman Origins right now but I don't see me every getting the speed trophies without going through a lot of frustration. Probably won't try them. I love GT5 too but there's no way I'll ever get all golds on the events. Of course, there's also games I love like Driver SF where I could get all the SP trophies, but I can't get all the MP trophies. A combination of frustration, grinding and a relatively dead MP ruins my opportunity at plat for that one.

Ideally, in a perfect world, we would just find games we love and 100% plat them. But, for me anyways, that just isn't the case. My decreasing time to play games doesn't help either.

I enjoyed the game and controls were decent but in that boss battle I could never get where I wanted in time. It took forever to beat him, after many deaths.

plus I couldn't beat the time for electro and I mean I was off by seconds. :mad: i timed it.

it may have been you that told me to ignore most enemies except the red ones or purple one or whatever caused the door blocks to go away but I never went back and tried.

why couldn't it just be beat it on hard, why do we have to beat certain scores too? lol.:p

I think I do remember mentioning that to you but like I said it was a while ago and the speed runs did suck, I think for me the sandman was the toughest. I had gamefly at the time and I remember I had no other games I was playing at the time. I don't know if I would go for the plat again with the back log I have now. I played some levels at least a dozen times.

I've been coughing so much and so hard that I think I pulled a muscle in my side. It's SOOOO sore... For like 4 days now.

That sucks. When I get coughs it usually is bad enough where i can feel blood in my throat.:sick:

Xerios, how are the online trophies for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit?

DarkFang94 01-12-2012 10:53 PM

I've been sick since Christmas day. Yesterday and the day before I thought I was getting better. Today I wake up and find my throat hurts and it looks all red.

I started Wipeout today. It took me about 20 or 30 minutes to get a gold on the first race on Elite.

I've been sick since the 4th. It sucks. Not as long as since xmas but 8 days is WAYYYY longer than I want to be sick; and a lot longer than i'm normally sick!

DarkFang94 01-13-2012 02:02 AM

Wipeout is a really fun game. I can see myself platting it, hopefully.

On a side note, what happened to Xerios?

Groo The Perverted 01-13-2012 02:15 AM

FREE XERIOS!

BTW: Just got another trophy on Ultra Beat Hazard. Challenge 27. Got 5 trophies left, but some of the challenges I don't know about.

Just got the 10,000 dollars banked challenge, the 50 tracks challenge and unlock all perks challenge.

DarkFang94 01-13-2012 11:04 AM

I got some, apparently, hard trophy on Wipeout. Get to Zone 75 or something. It was easy and fun.

Groo The Perverted 01-13-2012 11:19 AM

I have a feeling that my time is up here at this site. I've had it with mods continuing to edit my signature, and just basically arbitrarily deciding how to enforce rules. It's just the latest in a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG line of grievances I've had with them, and at this point I'm just tired of dealing with the bullshit.

So if the conversation I'm having with a mod goes the way I have a feeling it is going, I'm just walking away because otherwise I'm going to really go off the deep end trying to get banned, and there's no point in that.

I thank each and every one of you for the friendship and camaraderie we've had over the years here and I'm glad to have known all you trophy hooahs.

I also thank all of you for supporting me in something I will refrain from mentioning out of the fact that that'll probably get edited out TOO, but you all know what I'm referring to.

If anyone needs to get in touch with me, Jam will know where to find me. Also my twitter is @QuoVadimus2012 (hopefully THAT is allowed) so just send me a message if you're on there.

Thanks everyone, and keep on Trophy Huntin'!

I am now following you on twitter, watch your back son... lol

In other unrelated news... sorry if I deleted anyone off my friends, I needed the space for some old film colleagues of mine. They really need to allow more friends.

I am also following you on twitter, toss a follow back if you want. I will be reading your "thing that must not be named" (apparently) this weekend and toss up a review on amazon hopefully by the end of Sunday.

I hope you can stay on the boards, but do what you have to. Can't remember if we are PSN friends or not so add me there if you want and I'll help with whatever games we have in common. :)

take care.

Feel free to add me as well. I know we haven't played any games together but doesn't mean we can't in the future. :)

I definitely have the inside groo scoop as I live INSIDE groo! ;)

That sucks you might leave though. I think you should just be annoyed and stay though. We'll miss you.

If you leave now, you won't ever know my true thoughts on your book! And I don't have Twitter. Anyone know his PSN?

Never mind. It's in the first post. And it's his username.. I feel quite retarded.

What happened with Xerios? I must have missed stuff. I see today's posts with Groo, but don't want to dig back. I'm lazy. Shame it's near dead though. I haven't been near as involved with posting/trophies as I used to be; work has been way more demanding. If I quit my job though, I can't buy the games that I don't have time to play! An endless circle of first world problems...

DarchAmonNagar 01-13-2012 10:37 PM

I only have 2 more ribbons to get in Battlefield 3. One of which is get 6 kills IAR with aircraft. I've been playing for over 60 hrs now and have only managed 4 kills IAR:( It's not looking good for me:p
