Easy Games? - Blu-ray Forum

jamclaur · 01-27-2009, 11:45 PM

So I just finished Fallout 3 and don't want another 50+ hour investment right now. I have Bioshock waiting, but I don't think I can tackle that right now.

So my question is. Are there any simple trophy games out there right now? I'd prefer disk based, I have a few PSN games that I enjoy, but can be annoying to get those last few trophies I need.

Anywho, I was just wondering what you guys had in mind or were playing that I could have some fun with.

Edit: Well, I was told Prince of Persia was easy so I picked it up after finishing Uncharted. I didn't much like that game. I found it more annoying than fun and easy.

I'm really looking for something... fun and easy. haha. I know that's vague I just don't want something that requires a ton of thought and 40 hours of game play.

Define "easy." What kind of games do you play?

just about every game has a difficult setting of......."easy"

Tsmith13 · 01-27-2009, 11:49 PM

Bio-shock is very cool & you can get some trophies right off if your pretty good, Um Burnout paradise is a good one that has trophies. Uncharted.

I mean all these games are good...And can be easy if played on easy or normal and you still get the trophies also. I try to play my games on normal or hard to start off...i dont play easy ever and im not good enough to start off on crushing or the highest difficulty...i try that after i beat the game the first time on normal or hard. but thats just me.

That's what I do. I start off on hard because i'm not a fan of beating games twice back to back. So I don't want to start off on easy mode.

The game Monsters vs. Aliens looks like what i'm looking for but it's not out yet. haha.

I have littleBIG planet, and have enjoyed it thus far, but the last few trophies I need aren't mindless ones. And I literally don't feel like thinking after fallout.

I tried the demo for that but didn't really get it. lol. I've since considered buying it, but haven't because I really don't get the concept.

What about GTA? I have it, but haven't started it yet. I'm just catching up on xmas gifts.

Septimus Prime · 01-28-2009, 12:10 AM

So basically you want something relaxing, yes?

Magic Ball.

Boss Hogg · 01-28-2009, 12:16 AM

Definitely GTA4.

I'll look into that. It did look fun.

I second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth this notion.

'Magic Ball' is a very relaxing, casual, fun game. It can get a little frustrating if you take it too seriously. But, it's a fairly quick game to beat and only 2 trophies were of any real challenge for me... even then, I was able to get those two after a few hours of solid focus on them.

Septimus Prime · 01-28-2009, 12:24 AM

To a lesser extent, Cuboid and echochrome are also fairly relaxing, if you aren't so focused on winning.

quexos · 01-28-2009, 12:29 AM

Man I so wanna try Flow. It looks nice and relaxing and stuff.

jamclaur · 01-28-2009, 12:31 AM

I'll check out magic ball. I have cuboid and echochrome. Cuboid is fine, but echochrome is filled with thought and annoyances. haha.

thanks guys.

Dead Space Burnout Paradise

Drew664 · 01-28-2009, 04:27 AM

Twisted Metal off of the PSN would be a decent choice. If PS1 graphics don't bother you that is. It's a faster paced game, but pretty mindless none the less. This game scores extra points for being nostalgic.

air_max · 01-28-2009, 04:44 AM

yes magic ball is a very low thought game. however, it can be frustrating at times when the ball bounces in awkward ways and you die.

burnout may be the most thoughtless trophy disc game ive played. the only tricky parts are figuring out how to knock down some of the bilboards, but you only need 60 of the 120 to get that trophy. it will take awhile to platinum, maybe 20 hours if you are good at racing games.

bioshock is actually a pretty short game. if you are good at FPS then you could get through survival mode in 10-15 hours i think. ive beaten the game (on PC on medium) and now im playing through it again on survival (this time on ps3 on survival), and its not as hard as i thought it would be. the big daddies own me, but other than that i rarely die. just make sure you save a lot

.

umm, battlefield: BC isn't too hard, and its pretty short. i think you have to do 2 play throughs to get all the trophies, which you said you don't like. and the online trophies are pretty hard, especially the 10002 kills (i only average about 10 kills per game, so yah, long time). but its a fun game.

if you got it now, your eyes would hurt with its poor graphics, completely plagurised story and events from beginning to end, and predictable "twists".

eden is definately relaxing. there is absolutely nothing to dislike about eden except for garden 07... but even then, OatmealMU makes it possible.

also, i can't say first hand since i've never played it, but "flow" is supposed to be quite relaxing.

jamclaur · 01-28-2009, 06:23 AM

Thanks for the new info guys.

I went back to Prince of Persia to clean up a bit of trophies and had to quit after about 20 minutes. I'm just done with that game. lol.

I'm currently just folding, relaxing... and wondering what to play next. I may be leaving the US in a few weeks so I can't get into anything anyway...

i'm not in the army, but I can't take the PS3 anyway.

I thought about Buzz Quiz and playing it on-line and with people around here. How is that game?
