    I have very few platinums. Battlefield 4, Destiny, Hotshots Golf World Tour (I think) and Far Cry 3.
    One I regret not platinuming is TLOU. I was 1/2 way through the MP trophy and got my group wiped out. I needed a kill and had a guy down but time ran out before I could finish him off. Really really annoyed and I gave up on the MP.

    If the mic was better you would have heard "f***, s***, f****** c***, god damn f****** idiot w*****" when I fell down the hole in the abyss on the very next attempt.

    SO DAMNED ANGRY WITH MYSELF.

    Ah it was all good. Even if we didn't get it, it was quite an enjoyable few hours. Have missed that side of Destiny.

    Assassin's Creed 2 was my first platinum. It was a proxy easy one to get too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 235 ✭✭riggerman


    Assassins creed 2 , destiny, borderlands 2 and a pis easy tales from borderlands

    I've no real interest in the trophy things, or GS or XBox. But if, like the Flawless trophy, it's the last one I need, I'll try for it, but not religiously or to the detriment of fun. Rise of Iron I've 2 trophies left to get, the one for the 8 Iron Lord Artifacts (I've 6) and a hidden one (which I'm assuming is tied to the Artifact one). I'll get it, but in no rush to do it.

    the hidden one is ringing the bells to sound the song of the iron lords.

    Don't have that one myself, tried it once and it didn't work.

    It's a pain to do it. I managed it but it seemed very glitchy.

    It's easier with 2 or 3 people (think the gap between ringing each bell has to be pretty short), plus you also have to bank on no-one in the area realising what you're doing and running over to mess it up.

    Only one I don't have either, every time I got a group to do it some random prick would come up and intentionally disrupt it.

    Ah right. Yeah, I'll not be too worried if I don't get it.

    Got Horizon Zero Dawn and really enjoying it. So much so I bought another open world game The Witcher 3 GOTYE. Now I really want to finish off HZD but I really really want to start up the Witcher.

    Screw em both and just replay TLOU, you know you want to.

    Hmmm I actually do now I've figured out how to make screen shots into screensavers.

    Remember seeing one of the live shows in the RDS way back when. I don't think it was ever physically possible for them to stay in character for too long. Pure comedy gold.

    I started 2 weeks ago after having lengthy discussions with mates that vape. As far as juice goes, you'd want to be on the 18mg juice to start with, considering the strength of Mayfair. I smoked a box of Marlboro Lights a day which is roughly 14mg. Going up to 18 has meant at the very least I can get the fix and make the clean break from smoking cigarettes. I'd aim to reduce to the 12mg eventually but not there yet. Not going to put myself under pressure and say I'm quitting. It was more a financial decision. As far as the flavour of juice to go for, it really is subjective. A mate of mine is a big advocate of the cigarette flavour and wanted it to closely resemble the real thing. I thought I'd be the same but I've tried others that I'm taking to more. I've settled into Lemon Sherbet as the one I'm smoking now. It's not sweet and the taste is mild so it's easy to take to. Strawberry and apple cider is another one I'm liking as again the taste is milder, I really can't stand the sickening sweet ones at all.
