Funny thing is, I have the 3 plats that are mentioned in this article. :P Also, Dante's Inferno should be #4. 97% of my friends that have played DI have the plat.
If I remember correctly, I believe you got a trophy just for starting the game. Haha.
I do remember the collectible feathers though. It easily put me off from attempting the platinum. While I consider trophies/achievements a way to increase the length of games you particularly enjoy, there are some that do it in pretty annoying ways. And I'm not enough of a trophy "enthusiast" to endure that kind of monotony.
Correction: Collecting anything in open world games sucks. GTAIV's pigeons ACII's feathers Infamous' Dead Drops [...] But, for instance, getting Uncharted or Tomb Raider treasures was kinda fun.
I would've thought, maybe, a game like Linger in Shadows, for example, would've got dat honor. Since you can platinum it in about 10minz.
Oops, my comment is faulted.
But still, although LiS is also on 360, I would've still thought that the honors would go to one of them small fast games that can be finished quickly. & hell, no one has platinumized LBP, after so many years of play & easy "get all" trophies stages?
Uh. Yeah. Ultra fail on my belief; I could've sworn that LiS had a platinum for getting all the trophies, not true. & I remember when it 1st came out, a friend claimed that they were getting their copy on 360, which was lies & lesbian tales.
Sigh Oh course I've played LiS. I've got all the trophies (the looking at the cat one, rotating the panel for the scripture thing, shifting the screen to the corner trophy, etc.) In fact, I played it twice, because I had the trophies on my old 60Gig PS3 (from launch) had got personally damaged & I had to buy a new one. & I re-downloaded LiS for the trophies again. I was fascinated by the art style. Actually wished that they have made more games like it. & my sister saw it once & thought that it was releasing 'evil spirits' in my house, like an digital Ouija board (she's religious).
Yeah. I have the platinum on that one. It was ROUGH though. :/ Green Lantern, Where The Wild Things Are, and Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs were at least fun. Hannah Montana sucked...
Yeah but it's also known as a not-very-good game. Not many people buy games just for a easy platinum. Though I wouldn't say it was too easy - surviving those parts where you're shooting down flying bots while on the mounted gun of a truck was a pain in the ass.
No need to buy it--it takes a few hours! Just rent it for a day. But yeah, "pain in the ass" just about sums the whole game up. Every bug and glitch know to gaming has occurred to me at least once during the playthrough (including enemies spawning inside walls, when you need to kill every enemy to proceed--restart checkpoint).
AC2 is the easiest plat by far (for decent games, disregarding hannah montana and other bs), so it's not surprising at all. Got it with 18~20 hours of play on a 16 hour game.
"Most were not multiplayer heavy" Good, I hate those trophies. You go get a game that has somewhat challenging trophies that are fun to collect, then you get to the bottom half and its online trophies. Turns out this game has dead online multiplayer so all those trophies are literally impossible to get....
The AC2 Platinum is one of my 14 too. It was the quickest platinum to get of any game also. had it in a couple days. Skyrim was the Longest, funny thing about that game was I never noticed the time go by though
^^^ GoW 1 & 2 don't require you to play on the hardest difficulty for Platinum and CoO & GoS on hard are tame compared to GoW 3's Titan. I have Platinumed them all too. In terms of campaign on Hard, 3 takes the cake no question about it but in term of Challenges, it's a tie between 3's stoned and GoS's no hit survival.
Though the game sucked i was supprised to see that Terminator: Salvation was not one of the top ones. All you had to do was beat the game, and that takes a whole whoping 4 hours.... Each chapter gave you a gold and beating the game gave you platinum!
I guess that makes sense. It's an incredibly popular game. Many people own it.
It's just strange, since it requires so much work to get. The hardest platinum I've gotten is inFamous...and that was fairly easy. It would take me at least 100 hours to platinum a game like Assassin's Creed II. I don't know how people have that much time.
inFamous was probably the easiest and quickest Plat I ever got. 2 playthroughs in 2 sittings and done. I make fun of my friends that have played that game and haven't platinum'd it.
working on FFXIII and I must say it's fairly easy, just long.
you'd think that Infamous would be top of the list because many people downloaded it from the Welcome Back program after the hack. and it's a pretty easy plat.
Haha i got all three :) I really don't understand why it is ACII because it is so extremely boring, i gave it up a couple of times! And it really didn't think that MW2 would be highranking, bacause of the seemingly hard spec-ops.
I do remember the collectible feathers though. It easily put me off from attempting the platinum.

GTAIV's pigeons
ACII's feathers
Infamous' Dead Drops
[...]
But, for instance, getting Uncharted or Tomb Raider treasures was kinda fun.
Even with a walkthrough I still enjoyed it for some reason. Probably cos the map was so small.
Hate collecting stuff now tho, so tedious.

So, yeah; played it.
Not sure what you are referencing here.
Why do games with tacked-on mp get half their trophies for mp, and they end up being the most ridiculous and time consuming things?
GoW3 on Titan is pretty hard! satyr + cerberus and the Scorpion are crazy hard!
how hard can it be

Very Easy platinum ;)
