IGN - NCIS: The Game Review

IGN - NCIS is one of the most popular shows on TV due to a combination of reliable mysteries and character dynamics. NCIS The Game is a minigame collection tied to its namesake through character likeness alone. NCIS: The Game is short, easy, and a failsafe way to earn 1,000 achievement points; it's the participation ribbon of video games.

brodychet4860d ago

My easiest Platinum was seriously Dark Souls, I had played it so much I kinda stumbled upon it.

dc14860d ago

@brodychet
You can't stumble on the plat for dark souls!!
It takes a minimum of 2 NG+s and a deliberate number of actions and sequenced collectables to achieve it.....in fact I would say that the plat for DS is unobtainable outside of the walkthrough book or a very good guide. I have the Plat, blood, sweat and tears to show for it. What a great game!!!!

brodychet4857d ago (Edited 4857d ago )

Disagrees? It's what happened. Regardless of what you think, I'm on NG+++++ and yes i stumbled on it. Not being into platinums, it just happened out of my sheer curiosity for every aspect of the game. That is exactly what happened.

@dc1, a bit dramatic don't you think? It's a game bro.

Ares84HU4860d ago

No, they aren't easy platinums. They would be a pain to get platinum out of those games since I would not enjoy a second of gameplay. Easiest trophy comes from a game that you enjoy playing a lot.

CynicalVision4860d ago

I agree with this, my easiest platinum was Infamous 2..mainly because I couldn't stop playing because it was so much fun. I would probably get bored of playing games like NCIS and wouldn't even want to finish them.

wedgie4860d ago

Agreed CynicalVision and Ares84. Just got the inFAMOUS 2 platinum, which was just a fun one to get, and soon I am going to go back and get UC3. All I have left is crushing, but going to enjoy it anyway

admiralvic4860d ago

Then you didn't play Tekken Tag lol. It could be done in under an hour with skill and under five without.

MoreRPG4860d ago

agree
easy platinum for me(from games you actually enjoy):
Assassins Creed 2
Uncharted series
Fallout 3

Acquiescence4860d ago

Sage words. Everyone always raves about how difficult the platinum for Mirror's Edge is, yet I obtained it in 6 days from beginning to end, just because I enjoyed the whole experience so dang much. It's true that, regardless of supposed difficulty, if you enjoy a game then the platinum can be easy.

trenso4860d ago

@cynical mine too and is my fastest one too great game

torchic4860d ago

I enjoy Battlefield 3 a lot but that platinum trophy is as hard as f*ck

would rather try these games out.

So tired of *Top 3-10 list of why...* articles.
Shlts not cute at all and brings nothing new to gaming news.

If u actually click on the article (Why the F would u do that), u find that everything in the lists licks ballz anyway. Every time, every case.
Inexperienced journalists, trolling for hits...

PCE4860d ago

This is why kids games shouldn't be on the PS3. They should be on the Leapster instead.

spacedelete4860d ago

kids games should stay on the wii and 360 were they belong.

Blastoise4860d ago

Hey kids games can be good! they dont all have to be trash. Looks at little big planet, mario & toy story. All those are great for kids but older people could still enjoy them

soraalam14860d ago

I don't classify LBP as a "kids" game.

Fylus4860d ago

Agreed with Sora. I've seen some of the most perverting adulterated creations on community levels in LittleBigPlanet.

admiralvic4860d ago

Any list that doesnt have Tekken Hybrid (Tag Tourny 1) is doing it wrong... there are people who platinumed it in under 2 hours... (fastest time is like 54 minutes)

KwietStorm_BLM4860d ago

lol 54 minutes? What does it have you do, press square for every character through their campaign?

admiralvic4860d ago

Do X thing Y times.
Score 200 at bowling.
Win like 10 fights in survival.
Beat the arcade on hardest.
Win time attack in under 6 minutes.

It is a LOT harder if you lack skills, but even without them it can easily be accomplished in a few hours. 50 people did it in under 3 hours to give you an idea lol

fedex6824860d ago

Even in those easy platinums on sly collection, I only have the one for sly 2...lol!

dc14860d ago

Fun easy ...and at times very difficult. I wouldn't say it was a piece of cake.

GameSpot: NCIS Review

GameSpot: Childish minigames and saw-it-coming plots make NCIS a mockery of its TV inspiration.

Runner up GOTY for this one. Michael Phelps push the limit still wins hands down, no competition.

Love this show, sad that this game apparently sucks :/

Diehard GameFAN: NCIS Review

DHGF: Well, if you’re the sort of person who loves the idea of adding a thousand points to your gamer score in a day (I’m looking at you DJ), NCIS is probably worth a rental, but otherwise? It’s basically a waste of your time on nearly every level. The characters look fine, the audio is adequate, and the game is simple enough to play that you won’t have to strain yourself to do so regardless of your skill level. However, the plot becomes insulting in the final episode after being “okay” up to that point, there’s no challenge to the game, there’s no reason to ever come back to it because you’ll see and do everything in one sitting, and the cast from the show, save for David McCallum, isn’t even involved with the game. It’s not that NCIS is even aggressively bad so much as it is that the game is aggressively lazy, which is even more disappointing, to be honest. Bad games have a certain charm to hating their guts, and you can almost appreciate how terrible they are; NCIS just screams of being something Ubisoft shoved out the door to make a buck, and it shows in how utterly uninteresting the whole experience ends up.
