Nice job Sora!! Im gonna get the Budokai Collection one of these days, as its an Easy plat. but im saving up money to get LR:FFXIII and KH  1.5 later in the year.

 

They give Silvers out for pretty much nothing.

That's pretty much it. Besides, i've always liked the Budokai games alot anyway, so im looking forward to it. The only thing i hate about the remake is that they removed most of the good music in Budokai 3 that was in the PS2 version, and replaced it with crappier music in the remake.

They aren't remakes. They're only remasters. They still use the 4:3 frame for cutscenes and menus. They only removed the music because the original composer got in trouble with the law for copyright.

Ok got it, remasters. It sucks that the original composer got copyright, but oh well.

 

I set up a PSN Trophy Card. Just a thought, do these embeds of the card update whenever my page/account on PSNProfiles is updated?

You do this stuff too fast Sora, I can't keep up! I've only done the Bayonetta thing, but anyway I may get the Budokai collection someday as well. I like how you use Broly in the profile card by the way

Dang. At this rate you'll be through this list before the end of July! Going really quick on this! Nice work on these completions thus far! 

Sora: 1

Challenge: 0

Haha, seriously doubt that. Final Fantasy XII and XIII along with Zelda will take ages.

 

 

Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars is 91% complete. I got another PS3 controller today which allowed me to get the "Arcade Mode" trophy. I am fast approaching my first ever Platinum trophy.

Edited March 9, 201312 yr by Think Pink

I have now completed Lego Star Wars III: The Clone Wars 100%. This is my first ever Platinum Trophy.

 

Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection (Budokai 3) is up next since I've also completed Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection (Budokai).

Yeah, if you put it in your Signature, it updates each time you get a new trophy. That's what happens with mine anyway.

I've noticed that now. Haha.

 

Definitely going for Platinum on DBZ Budokai HD Collection now. 

I have completed Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection and in the process obtained my second Platinum trophy.

Way to go!  Are you now playing Final Fantasy XII?  What are your thoughts on the game so far?  I honestly didn't make it very far through the game (this might be because I don't own a copy myself), but it seemed very...different than most FFs.

Nope, I haven't started it yet.

 

I'm not sure what to do with this challenge now....

 

I've gotta add Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster and Pokemon X/Y to it. And that makes it pretty much impossible.....

Hm, that would complicate things.  Maybe take off the Re:coded replay, since you've already played that, and something else?  Actually, you might want to consider scratching Zelda off the list, since that one is a huge time consumer and it's relatively easy to get stuck.  (*cough* Water Temple *cough*)  Just a thought, at any rate...  Good luck!

Yeah, I'll take Zelda off the list. I'll save that for 2014.... 

 

Taking off Re:coded won't work. My aim was to play it for the last time this year like I did with 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts II. You know preparing for HD 1.5/2.5 ReMIX.

Good idea.  And that makes sense regarding Re:coded.  Just whatever you do, don't take FF XIII off; it's a relatively short, semi-simplistic game with incredible visuals and story.  (Since you liked X, I think you'll like it as well...I've kind of thought they're similar.)

I thought FF XIII was a long game? Yeah, FF XIII is one of the best looking video games ever. It was praised for how good it looks.

Well...I guess it depends on how thoroughly you're aiming to complete XIII, actually, but I'd say it's about a 30-35-hour game, so long as you don't get incredibly stuck in boss battles or grind levels.  It's shorter than X and VII, so to me it seems "short."

 

(And whoops, am I monopolizing this thread?  Sorry, I should stop now. )

Interesting. Nah, it's cool.

I have removed The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D from my challenge as I unfortunately won't be able to complete it in 2013. 

Go Sora96, you can do it

I reached 100% for capsules/skills in Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 HD today. This wraps up Dragon Ball Z Budokai HD Collection.

 

I have started Final Fantasy XII.

Good luck with XIII. Its a pretty long game if you go for 100%.

 

If you speed run through the story(Which i recommend before actually doing the extra stuff, since you get an extra Crystarium level that makes your party, WAY MORE STRONGER and makes it alot more easier to do the Cieth Stone missions and get all the trophies) it'll probably take you like maybe 25-30 hours.

 

I'm currently trying to Plat. it, and i've got like over 100 hours of Gameplay. I only have the Treasure Hunter trophy(In which you have to have gotten every Equip, Accessories and Weapons, and upgrade them to all of their forms) and the Master Seal trophy(Just Max out all of your characters Roles) and then i get the Platinum. The rest of the game was pretty easy, just really time consuming.

 

XIII-2 is way to easy to Plat. and you'll finish 100% in like maybe 60-70 hours. FF XIII is more of a long true FF game than XIII-2.

 

I'd say you should probably hold off on XIII for awhile until like, when you have your Summer holidays. It takes like 2 months to 100% it. And whatever you do, if you want to Plat. the game, DO NOT SELL ANY OF YOUR EQUIPS UNLESS YOU HAVE EXTRAS. It helps very much in the end with the Treasure Hunter trophy, trust me.

So I'm guessing you're still playing through Final Fantasy XII?
