Platinum #35 - The Testament of Sherlock Holmes (EU)

Platinum #35 - The Testament of Sherlock Holmes (EU)

Difficulty: 3/10

Time: ca. 11h

Fun: 9/10

Rage: 1/10

Platinum - 180

Gold - 5x - 450

Silver - 12x - 360

Bronze - 15x - 225


First of all I'm a huge Sherlock Holmes fan and enjoyed the game alot! The fun would've been 10/10, but sometimes the sound malfunctioned and was either like a stammering robot or completely gone, so it went down to 9/10. When using a guide, the difficulty would be 1/10 but I tried to solve everything by myself and only used a guide when I was really stuck and had no idea what to do and since that happened from time to time, the difficulty went up to 3/10. After finishing the game I had to start a new game to examine all of Sherlock's stuff as Watson because I actually missed it. Not a big deal because if you skip every dialogue it's only 5-10 minutes of playing until you reach the first point where you're able to get the trophy.

Platinum:

My most time-consuming Platinums

This is my personal top 5 of the most time-consuming Platinums I ever achieved.

1# - Homefront

It took me about 350 hours to complete. The most time consuming trophy is Multiplayer trophy "Expert of War" which includes: 200 kills with every weapon, 200 kills with every drone, 200 kills with every vehicle, 200 kills with every air strike and 100 wins in every game mode.

2# - Sacred 2: Fallen Angel (EU)

This one took me about 120 hours to complete. You have to level up every character class to level 15 and have to beat the game on Silver, Gold and Platinum difficulty. In addition you have to beat the Light campaign and the Dark campaign, the whole campaign without your hero ever died, the whole campaign without exploring more than 20% of the map, the whole campaign without buying anything and you have to finish 40% of the sidequests, explore 50% of the map, find every temple, town, grave and farm thousands of monsters. So you'll need at least 4 playthroughs.

#3 - Metal Gear Solid 4

It took me about 90 hours to complete MGS4. You have to play through the game at least 8 times concentrating on several conditions (more/less than xxx kills/alerts/continues/etc.) to get all 40 emblems needed for a gold trophy. The Big Boss emblem is the most frustrating of them all because you have to complete the game in less than 5 hours on Extreme difficulty without killing anyone, without alerting anyone, without continuing, without special equip and without healing even a single time and that is intense!

4# - BioShock (EU)

Took me about 50 hours to complete. Most time consuming thing is to collect every audio diary, every tonic and of course saving every other room and reloading your save everytime you die on Survivor difficulty because you musn't use Vita Chambers for the trophy "I chose the Impossible".

5# - Resident Evil 5

It took me long enough to farm enough money to buy and fully upgrade every single weapon, beat the game twice (once on any difficulty to unlock Professional difficulty and then once on Professional difficulty) and collect every BSAA emblem. All in all I'd say it took me 40 to 50 hours.

My hardest Platinums

This is my personal top 5 of the hardest Platinums I ever achieved.

#1 - Metal Gear Solid 4

Metal Gear Solid 4 is the hardest Platinum I achieved so far! Pretty much everything in the game is easy except for the Big Boss emblem. You have to complete the game in less than 5 hours on Extreme difficulty without killing anyone, without alerting anyone, without continuing, without special equip and without healing even a single time. Some parts of the game can be extremely hard and the time pressureis intense.

#2 - Dead Space 2 (EU)

Dead Space 2 is the second hardest Platinum I ever achieved because of the Hardcore Mode. It's basically like Zealot difficulty but you're only given 3 opportunities to save your game during the whole campaign. Think that's all? It isn't! There are also no checkpoints at all so if you die you have to load your latest save or if you haven't saved yet you have to restart the entire campaign.

#3 - Homefront

This is my third hardest Platinum. Guerrilla difficulty is tough at some points and can be very frustrating. Also it can be very difficult to beat every chapter without dying or reloading a checkpoint, even if you're playing on easy. One mistake and you're done and have to restart the whole chapter which can be up to an hour of work. Also it is very tough to do 200 kills in Multiplayer with the humvee and the drones.

#4 - BioShock (EU)

BioShock is the fourth hardest Platinum I ever achieved because of the "I chose the Impossible" trophy for which you have to beat the game on Survivor difficulty without using vita chambers (respawn locations) so if you die you have to restart the entire campaign. Only thing that makes it easier than Dead Space 2 is that you can save whenever you want to. Although it still sucks to save every other room and load if you die. If you're not careful you'll spend more time reloading your save than actually playing.

#5 - Sacred 2: Fallen Angel (EU)

The hardest part of this Platinum would be completing the campaign on Platinum difficulty and completing the campaign with a hero who never died. Why not just quit to the main menu and reload you save? Because you can't. When your character dies you have like 3-5 seconds to turn off the power of your PS3 or to quit out of the game via PS-Button because after that 3-5 seconds you'll respawn and it will automatically overwrite the previous autosave and there is no way to manually save your game to another save slot. If you're to slow your character will be marked as "died once" so you have to create a whole new character to get the trophy.

Trophy Service

Do you have Games in your Collection you would like to have the Platinum/100% in but didn't earn it because you couldn't do a specific thing or just think the game sucks? Or do you know a Game you would like to have the Platinum/100% in but think it's price is too much or whatever reason? I offer a Trophy Service for some Games (they are getting more) which means you pay me a few bucks and I earn them for you. Please don't just look at the price but imagine the effort behind it. For example Dead Space 2 takes about 50 hours which means it's just 1€ per hour for me and most people wouldn't work for 1€/h if they didn't have to or would they? So please keep this in mind! I will do every single trophy.
