Not without retrying though! I'm trying to get the 9 lives trophy! This one is pretty hard for me to get!

this is a good game to have. it does a good job of mixing up the weapons and its reasonably difficult (at times). the trophies are very easy, got almost all of them in one sit down. the only 3 that are pretty hard are The Morris Award and Bonus Plan because you have to complete those in one game (but you can stop, take a break, then continue), and Through the Fire and Flames is reasonably hard too. The trick with that one is a lot of luck, and getting the laser gun helps.

Its a pretty good game, and the only reason why its worth $10 is because of the local multiplayer. probably the easiest trophies for a PSN game yet.

Love it.

Always been a fan of the Arkanoid/Ball&Paddle games. Every time I see one, I have to play it. Magic Ball was no exception, and I've been playing more weekend.

On a side note, Trophies somewhat in my grasp too. (Im horrible at trophies). I just need the 200 coin one, and the 'through the fire and flames' one. Trying to save that Knight for last is rough!

Interesting concept they have there, might have to get this one from the PSN Store.

[Morphine]

I might try it later this week, too busy with retail games, Im like 6 behind

Addicted myself!!! Everyone on my Friends List keeps telling me that it just looks like the boring old Arkanoid games. They really need to release a 2 level demo so people can actually play it and get a sense of how much more fun it is because of the 3D rebound surfaces and all of the weaponry choices.

The trophies that I can't get are:

- 25 in a row (will this work if you get "Game Over" and then "Retry Level" or does it start to count from 0 again?)
- 9 free lives (again, does it count after a "Game Over" / "Retry Level"?)
- 1,000,000 points
- Secret Trophy (anyone know what the objective is to activate it?)
- Aid the Knight (obviously the trickiest of the bunch)

P.S. As for the empty slot... they have stated that more levels are coming as paid DLC. That's what the empty slot will be used for. There are only 2 episodes (Pirates + Knights) with 25 levels each in the initial $10 purchase.

1000, 000 is pretty easy to get as you can use retry.

25 in a row I don't think you can restart a new game, or it didn't work for me anyway

9 lives is hard! I get 7 then 8 then nothing comes until I start losing lives at the later stages!!!!!!

As for the extra slot bummer that that is going to be more paid DLC! I'll get it but still a pity!

SUICIDE! Kill yourself with the kill skulls five times. So basically, stock up on those extra lives, and then start grabbing those skulls. 5 in, and you should be good to go.


(END SPOILER)


But as for the 25 in a row, I'm 95% sure I did it with continues/retry's. The tricky thing to remember is that each 'story' has 24 levels. So just finishing the Pirate story will not work, you have to finish it AND finish the first level in the Knight story as well.

And for a lot of the trophies, they didnt see to register until right before the NEXT level started. So definitely give it some time to pop up.

love this game... reminds me of atari breakout or original gameboy alleyway...

hooked and have passed all levels (48 total within 2 episodes)

[pmac]

Yes great game. but WAYYYYY too short. I already have 100% on the trophies, and have had since saturday. Can't wait for the DLC add ons. I like as much as they release. The PC game magicBall2 we bought about 6 weeks ago for the 9yo boy. But we all play it.
