You obviously are not a real gamer until you have EDF 4.1 Platniumed. I mean who doesn't have time to beat 100 missions with all four characters on every difficulty but easy. That's only like 1200 missions to clear.

/S

I o ly go for Platnium if I really enjoy a game, want to keep playing once beat and the only trophies I have left can be obtained while playing for enjoyment. Got Spiderman and loved the game from start to finish.

Spider-Man is a great game, but I'm not going to platinum it because I don't feel like looking up the hidden trophies and doing dumb stuff like ride the subway 5 times.

I disagree. A number of developers have pointed out that not a lot of people complete games nowadays. As it stands nearly half the people that have played Spider-Man (46.9%) have completed it. And of those 10% went as far as to do everything you could do in the game. So I think it says a lot about the game when that happens. Particularly when you're dealing with a game that's sold millions of copies.

I am much more impressed with the 46% completion. The story was great and the best reason to play.

I didn't even bother with the platinum I got far too bored with the game. I think I'm at 98% completion.

Nice! Not too surprising given how many posts I saw or people celebrating their first Platinum with this game. Insomniac must be pretty damn happy proud right now!

I refuse to go through the slog of the god of war trophies but the spider-man ones are real easy

and the traversal is good that I haven't minded

The platinum really was ridiculously easy to get, personally I like to do things as I unlock them so I was easily done the extra stuff before finishing the story. Plus doing it that way crimes weren't very tedious since I just ran into them while landmark hunting.

It is actually a somewhat common mistake. Sucker Punch and insomniac seem to get mixed up with one another here and there. No biggie!

Aside from the Valkyrie fights, it has some awful side content. Those fucking ravens! Oh my god why. Whhhhhy.

I'd just consider the ravens a blemish on what is a very solid package of side content. I'm talking more about the quality and structure of the content. The storylines, the connection to other parts of the game, etc...

I wish I had known to hold on to my challenge tokens. I'd have to get gold on challenges to get it now :(

Hmm, makes me wonder which game has the highest % when it come to acquiring the platinum. Spider-man's gotta be up there.

Anyway the trophy list was excellent, nothing too different from the usual open world stuff but it was incredibly fun to get.

I still waiting until all dlc is done. Then I get the last trophy for the Platinum.

Really good trophy list.

Always felt platinum or even 100% achievement completion should have a similar layout to spider-man. In the sense that if someone plays the main story in a thorough way, than 90% of the stuff would be able to be accomplished.

I remember being very thankful they didn't do that during my run.

Also not making me complete on Spectacular I liked Amazing

I really grew to like the satisfying feeling of getting a run right and attaining the highest rank, after replaying a challenge several times. Some of those drone challenges were tough.

This just shows how subjective this all is...I really enjoyed the MJ sections. I'm glad they were there.

It's all about taste.. I like a change of pace on the game and the stealth sections are easy and short.

I hope they improve them in the future.. or at least make them be like the one where MJ can electroshock the enemies.

That's incredible. I usually see Platinum rates that are 0.5%. But I've been hearing DQXI has a pretty good Platinum rate too (haven't checked), maybe it's a recent trend for big games?

Be nice if they did a email for a free platinum theme like Horizon, Bloodborne. Last Guardian ECT. Send it out a week or 2 before the frist dlc to give every one a mental nudge.

I'm among that percentage. I think it was my 5th ever. Just an overall really enjoyable and fun experience. Swinging around and fighting like Spider-Man rarely got old, hence it made getting the platinum that much more enticing and helped overcome some of the repetitiveness from the challenges or side activities.

In any case, great achievement. Shows there was a lot of long term commitment from its consumer base.

I'll have it tomorrow. I have 37 crimes left and largely just story trophies after that. I also have a couple mindless ones (visit a specific spot, ride the subway more) but otherwise I'm set to get it done.

I really have to question the thinking on the number of crimes in the game, or at least how many are needed for the trophy. There was never consideration to make it three per faction? Especially the last two?

And for those saying the game was really easy and all that I've played the whole thing on the hardest difficulty and I've died plenty. There's options to make things more challenging if you really wanted it to be tougher.

Makes you wonder if it was part of their strategy to make the platinum pretty easy to get so you've got that additional draw for the trophy hunters out there. I personally will be getting this for Christmas and as a bit of a completionist I'm really looking forward to it!

Good. Did the same. Oh and super difficult platinums are trash. Insomniac Games did it right with Spider-Man.
