Far Cry 3

Far Cry 3 is a sequel to the 2008 Far Cry 2. The game is a first-person shooter in an open world, with RPG elements such as gaining experience points to purchase and improve skills. In addition to the main story, Far Cry 3 also includes a number of side-quests, and a co-op feature, which can be played either online or offline.

You play as Jason Brody on vacation with friends. During a skydiving trip, the vacationers land on an island occupied with pirates, and are kidnapped. Jason manages to break free, and must figure out a way to rescue his friends and get safely off the island.

The game received overall high praise, with an average score of 91% for its interesting and unpredictable story, variety of weapons and overall fun gameplay.

Except for one missable trophy, you're free to play the game from beginning to end, after which opens a free roam where you can easily mop-up anything you've missed. There are also 6 co-op trophies to acquire, which can either be done online or offline with a friend.

Overall, only an average amount of gaming skills are required, and about 20 hours of your time.

Since there are no trophies related to the difficulty mode, you can select Easy and start up your game. For the most part, you can play from beginning to end without worry - except for one missable trophy: Unheard, which requires you to liberate an outpost without triggering the alarm. There are 34 outposts, so just make sure you managed to disable the alarms with with at least one of them. At the end of the game, if you've liberated all the outposts and triggered their alarms, you'll need to restart a new game.

Also, though not missable, you may want to get Never Saw It Coming, Love The Boom, and Toxophilite during the early stages of the main story, as they'll be easier this way. Check out the Far Cry 3 trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details.

Once you've finished the main story, you're free to roam the island and mop-up anything you've missed. Lastly, there are 6 co-op trophies, each corresponding to a particular map. These trophies can be obtained either online, or offline in split-screen.

Avatar The Game Trophy Game

Avatar The Game Trophy Guide. Difficulty: n/o  A third-person action title based on the 2009 film Avatar. Due to the online servers being shut down, the eight online trophies cannot be unlocked.

Avatar: The Game

James Camerons' Avatar: The Game is a third-person action title based on the 2009 film. The game uses the same stereoscopic 3D technology as the movie, and includes much of the original cast including Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, and Michelle Rodriguez.

Taking place two years before the events of the film, Able Ryder is a new signals specialist assigned to Pandora who, after a series of missions, finds himself caught between an RDA strike and helping the Na'vi.

James Cameron's Avatar: The Game received very mixed reviews, with an average score of 61%, praised for its visuals and 3D effect, but criticized for its controls and linear gameplay.

Avatar: The Game includes 8 online trophies. Unfortunately, the servers were closed on August 8, 2014. As a result, these 8 online trophies - and therefore the Platinum trophy - has become Not Obtainable.

Since the online servers for Avatar: The Game have closed on August 8, 2014, the eight online trophies, as well as the Platinum, have since become Not Obtainable. However, the game still includes 31 offline trophies. So if you're interested, then read on.

Start on the storyline. Once you've completed the beginning of the game, you'll be given the option of selecting either the RDA or Na'vi route. Since you'll eventually need to do both, it doesn't matter which you choose. Just make sure you stick with it up until the end, as you'll be given another choice later on. The important thing is to complete all the Sector Challenges for both sides. If you complete the game without getting 100%, you missed your chance and will need to start over.

Once you've finished one side, you can restart from the earlier save point and start your playthrough on the other side. This is your chance to mop-up any kill-related trophies you missed, as well as earn the Clean Sweep Of Pandora trophy after completing another 100% of the Sector Challenges.

Prince of Persia The Two Thrones Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

Prince of Persia The Two Thrones Trophy Guide. Difficulty: **  A third-person action platformer and part of the Prince of Persia storyline, originally released in 2005 and revamped with trophy support for the PS3. Not a difficulty Platinum, but requires three playthroughs and some grinding.

Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones

Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones is a third-person action platformer, originally released on sixth-generation consoles in 2005, and revamped in HD with trophy support on the PlayStation 3 in 2010 as part of the Prince of Persia Trilogy. Following Warrior Within, the game is the final chapter in the Sands of Time saga.

Following the events of Warrior Within, Kaileena and the Prince return to Babylon to find it destroyed. His old nemesis Vizier has returned, and uses the Dagger of Time to make himself immortal. Cast out of the city, the Prince must return and face his old enemy.

Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones on the PlayStation 2 received fairly positive reviews, with an average score of 85%, praised for its exciting story and visuals.

The game isn't that much more difficult than The Forgotten Sands, but far more time consuming, as you'll need to do three full playthroughs, one on each difficulty mode. Farming for Sand Credits can also be a bit of a grind. And, during one of your three playthroughs, you'll need to complete the game without dying.

Overall, not very difficult, just time consuming. Expect around 20-25 hours to complete.

Each of the three trophies related to completing the game on a different difficulty mode are NOT stackable, which is why you'll need to perform three full playthroughs. To make life easier, we recommend focusing on specific trophies during each playthrough, rather than all of them at once.

First, we suggest playing first on Hard mode. During this playthrough, try to get the Healthy trophy, which involves collecting all the life upgrades, as this of course will also help you on your run through Hard. And, work on getting the Silent Prince trophy, which is getting 50 kills with a speed kill. These silent take-downs will make your run on Hard easier.

After completing the game on hard, reload your Hard game and replay the ending, which will give you 700 credits each time. Once you reach 10,000 credits, you'll unlock the Sand Collector trophy.

Next, start your second playthrough on Normal, and this time focus on getting all the remaining trophies, except for Sand Snake. These might involve the miscellaneous kill-related trophies, and sealing all the sand portals for the Sealed Portals trophy.

Last, start your playthrough on Easy. The only trophy you should be missing, other than Mortal, is the Sand Snake trophy, which involves playthrough through without dying. Hopefully, after two playthroughs on the harder modes, this shouldn't be too difficult. Remember to save often, and reload whenever needed.

Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands Trophy Guide. Difficulty: *  A third-person action platformer and a return to the original Prince of Persia storyline. If using a collectibles guide, the Platinum is both quick and easy to unlock.

Game Name Difficulty Trophies Developer Country Bronze Silver Gold Online DLC

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is a third-person action platformer, and is a return to the original Prince of Persia storyline, taking place between The Sands of Time and Warrior Within.

Seven years after Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, the Prince heads to see his brother, Malik, to seek education in leadership, only to find the kingdom overrun by an army attempting to break into the treasure vaults. Malik uses a power called Solomon's Army which creates sand creatures to fight the invading army, but things don't go quite as planned.

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands received mixed to positive reviews, with an average score of 74%, praised for its overall fun but lacking in graphics and presentation.

While it may not be in the same league as Hannah Montana: The Movie, this game is still fairly easy and relatively quick to earn the platinum, so long as you're following a collectibles guide. There are five missable trophies to watch out for. Otherwise, the others are combat-related, challenge-related, or just story-related.

With a collectibles guide, this Platinum should take roughly around 15 hours to unlock

Make sure to select Normal difficulty. Then, once the game starts, hit Start and lower the difficulty setting to Easy, which will unlock the Our Little Secret trophy. From here on out, it's up to you if you wish to continue playing on Easy, or reset back to Normal for more of a challenge.

It's entirely possible to get all the campaign trophies in one playthrough. But be aware of the 5 missables. Power Boost and Got Walkthrough? requires you to find and break all 21 sarcophagi throughout the game, so you'll want to follow one of the collectible guides under our Links tab. Stay Dry is a stunt which requires the Power of Flow ability in the castle. The Untouchable trophy requires you to defeat Ratash without taking damage, and Invincible requiers you to defeat him again in the final battle without taking damage. These five trophies, if not unlocked when you complete the game, will require nearly a full second playthrough.

The other trophies, aside from the story-related ones, are either combat or stunt related. Failure to unlock these will require a partial second playthrough, but can easily be collected during your first. Just make sure to check out the Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands trophy guide links under our Links tab to see what you need to do.

Finally, after having completed the game, you'll have unlocked the Enemy Tides Challenge. Here, you can grind for XP to upgrade the last of your abilities and earn the Completist trophy, as well as the Prince Of Tides trophy for completing the challenge.

Prince of Persia Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

Prince of Persia Trophy Guide. Difficulty: **  A third-person action platformer belonging to the Prince of Persia franchise, though heavily deviated in both style and combat system. The Platinum is fairly average in terms of skill and time required.

Game Name Difficulty Trophies Developer Country Bronze Silver Gold Online DLC

Prince of Persia

Like the othes in the Prince of Persia series, this is a third-person adventure in which you'll be jumping, climbing and flipping through the air while swinging your sword to victory. The game was created with rotoscoping, which gives an artistic feel as though you're playing a painting.

After saving her, Elika explains that her father is the one who sent the soldiers after her. Once her father destroys the Tree of Life, the evil god Ahriman is free to bring evil across the land. The Prince and Elika must travel to each Fertile Ground throughout the kingdom to rejuvenate its power and defeat Ahriman.

Though it will take some time, there aren't any trophies which are supremely difficult in this game. You'll find yourself acquiring trophy after trophy at the start of the game. Then a long pause before you collect the last batch.

The two most challenging trophies will be: Light Seeds Master, which requires you to find every light seed in the game, and Be Gentle With Her, which means Elika can only save you less than 100 times in the game. A little frustrating and time consuming, but nothing which warrants more than two stars for this game.

Many trophies will be gained automatically throughout the game, with others which are required to complete the story. Upon your first playthrough, without going out of your way, you should have collected roughly 60% of the trophies.

At least 2 playthroughs will be necessary. Focus the first on completing all the necessary challenges. This includes finding all the Light Seeds. Use our Links to help you with this. During your second playthrough, focus on getting the Be Gentle With Her trophy. This means that she cannot save you more than 100 times. Start a new save, and begin. Then save often! Every time you miscalculate a jump or fail to defend against an enemy and Elika saves you, simply reload. It will take time, but is very doable.

One of the best Trophy Guides we've found was by KingBroly, Aidan, Alpha826 and olsen77, which includes not only several videos, but hints for the DLC as well:
