How To Get 151 PS3 Trophies In 24 Hours

1-3 HOURS

Duke Nukem Forever, Brink, Walking Dead

Platinum: 0
Gold: 1
Silver: 4
Bronze: 11

To get your adventure started, we need a symbol. A sign of the journey to come. Load up Duke Nukem Forever, head to the toilets and steal some poo from the toilets (Turd Burglar – Bronze) for your first trophy. Then draw something on the whiteboard (Drawrings – Bronze), drink a beer in ‘The Duke Cave’ (Flagon Of Chuckles – Bronze), take steroids in the same place (Juiced – Bronze) and shoot the overhead blimp down during the first boss fight (Sunday, Black Sunday – Bronze).

Brink also awards you a host of Trophies simply for knowing how to press buttons, pretty much. Completing all the one-star challenges (Well Done! and Who’s Bad? – both Silver) and a three-star challenge (Very Well Done Indeed – Silver) is easy enough and when defending an objective, wait for an attacker to try to complete a primary objective and kill him (That’s How You Win A Match – Silver).

That shouldn’t take you too long, so you can round off the time by completing The Walking Dead: Episode 1, which awards you all the Trophies as you as make it through to the end, regardless of the decisions you make or how you play.

TOTAL TROPHIES: 16

4-6 HOURS

Back To The Future Episode 1: It’s About Time

Platinum: 0
Gold: 1
Silver: 4
Bronze: 7

While we’re on Telltale, Back To The Future also yields easy, quick Trophies. However, some can be missed. You have to perfectly recite dialogue from the original movie in the opening cut-scene, so pick ‘Disintegrated Einstein’ and ‘Built a time machine out of a DeLorean?’ (Deja Marty – Bronze).

When in Edna Strickland’s home, examine the pictures on the wall until Edna comments on the Marshall Strickland picture (Fate In Flux – Bronze). When you travel back in time to Thirties Hill Valley, read the sign above the law firm before heading over to Doc (Hi Bob! – Bronze). When you talk to Doc in jail, ask him “Where’ve you been?”, “How’s the family?”, “Where’d the DeLorean come from?” in order (A Plausible Explanation – Bronze).

This leaves the only tricky Trophy as the one where you have to mix the rocket fuel flawlessly, but as long as you listen to only Emmett’s commands when he places emphasis on the words hinting at what to do, you should be fine. If you get it wrong and Emmett has to come down to talk to you, hit Select and reload that section (Fuelmaster – Bronze).

TOTAL TROPHIES: 28

7-9 HOURS

Saints Row: The Third, Tekken 6

Platinum: 0
Gold: 0
Silver: 2
Bronze: 12

Before you can begin nabbing Trophies in Saints Row: The Third, you have to get the opening two missions done (Dead Presidents and The Welcome Wagon – both Bronze). You then get to create your character, make sure you sure him/her online before quitting (Jumped In – Bronze). Shoot someone in the balls so you get the nutshot notification, then click in the right analogue stick next to them to finish them off (Ow My Balls! – Bronze).

Hijack 50 cars using the sprint and Triangle combo to jump through the windshield to quickly hit your target (Bo-Duke-En – Bronze). Once you’ve started earning respect, bring up your cell phone and buy an upgrade from, unsurprisingly, ‘Upgrades’ (A Better Person – Bronze). Finally, kill 25 people with your fists or by clicking in the right analogue stick to complete the first challenge (Shake And Bake – Bronze).

You can also blitz Tekken 6 for some easy Trophies. Scenario Campaign Mode yields easy ones for clearing the tutorial (Learning Is Fun – Bronze) and killing any enemy with a picked-up weapon (Give Your Fists A Rest – Bronze).

Likewise Tekken 6’s online modes, which yield Trophies simply for playing three matches online (Fighting Amateur – Bronze), ten matches online (Fighting Enthusiast – Bronze) and then 30 matches online (Fighting Master – Silver). You don’t even have to win.

When playing through Arcade mode, NANCY appears as a bonus stage boss, which can be tricky. Put the difficulty on Easy, pick Paul, keep side-stepping and do his quarter-circle towards and Triangle ‘deathfist’ move whenever an opening appears.

It’s tricky, but keep the pressure up and you should beat NANCY (Machine Crusher – Silver). Then all that’s left is to beat Azazel to nab the last easy, quick Trophy from Tekken’s grasp (Arcade Addict – Bronze).

TROPHIES: 42

10-12 HOURS

Terminator Salvation

Platinum: 1
Gold: 11
Silver: 0
Bronze: 0

Notorious for being the easiest Platinum on PlayStation 3, getting Terminator Salvation done in three hours is pushing it a little but is perfectly doable.

As far as Trophies go, you need to complete the game on Hard to unlock them all, as this will also unlock the Trophy for clocking Terminator Salvation on Medium difficulty. None of the Trophies are missable when you play through, so you just need to concentrate on making it to the end.

The AI has been designed to allow for flanking tactics, so you’ll notice they’ll focus their attention on your allies a lot, allowing you to creep around the back of them. As long as you stay in cover and flank wherever possible, you won’t have too many issues pushing through.

Remember that T-7s have to be shot in their exposed back to do any damage, at which point they’ll spin around to face you. This means they expose their backs to your allies but, frustratingly, they don’t seem to do much damage. The way to reset this situation is to rejoin your allies, thus refocusing the T-7’s attention on them, and therefore allowing you to creep back around their back.

The only real threat are the T-600 cyborgs, so it’s good to carry a rocket launcher, grenades and pipe bombs whenever possible, only saving them for the T-600. If you want to conserve these weapons, one explosion from a rocket or grenade will open up their chests, allowing you to damage them with normal weapons.

The only hard parts in Terminator Salvation involve these enemies. Oh, and right at the end of the game, don’t fight – just keep running forward. And there you go, easy Trophies and the easiest Platinum on any PlayStation 3 game.

TOTAL TROPHIES: 54

13-15 HOURS

Sly Cooper, Burnout Paradise, Daytona USA

Platinum: 0
Gold: 1
Silver: 4
Bronze: 19

Sly Cooper kicks a Trophy your way for starting the game (Sucker Punched – Bronze), another for collecting the police file in the story’s opening (Foxy Lady – Bronze), one more for progressing in the first mission (Learn The Ropes – Bronze) and three when you collect 99 coins before the first chapter is done (Coin Collector, Coin Recycler and Coins, Coins Everywhere! – all Bronze).

Burnout Paradise also gets you started with some quick-fire Trophies. Head to the Auto Repair at the game’s start (Repair Your Car – Bronze), win your first race (Win A Race – Bronze), drive through three Billboards (Smash 3 Burnout Billboards – Bronze), beat the Nakamura SI-7 after winning your third event (Shutdown The Nakamura SI-7 – Bronze), get your third Takedown (Perform 3 Takedowns – Bronze) and send an online invite (Invite A Friend To Join You In Paradise City – Bronze).

After the scorching racing of Burnout Paradise comes PSN’s Daytona USA. You should be able to grab all Trophies in under an hour. Beat the Beginner (First Place Beginner – Silver), Advanced (First Place Advanced – Silver) and Expert (First Place Expert – Gold) for the first round of Trophies.

On the Beginner course, press select in front of the spinning reels three times (Slot Machine – Bronze), on Advanced Course do a 180 and drive up the ramp to the secret message (You Just Lost Your… – Bronze) and keep pressing Select in front of the Jeffrey statue on the Expert course (Flipmode – Bronze).

Now you just need to smash your car and drive into the pit (Repair Hornet – Bronze), upload any Time Trial score (Rank In – Bronze), complete a single challenge (Challenge Clear – Bronze), hit 100 cones (100 Hits – Silver), play Karaoke mode to its end (Karaoke Racer – Silver) and score over 5,000 (Survive – Bronze).

TOTAL TROPHIES: 78

16-18 HOURS

Eat Lead, Legends Of Wrestmania, Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs

Platinum: 0
Gold: 0
Silver: 11
Bronze: 10

Now for some real dross. Eat Lead’s sole redeeming feature is how often it dishes out Trophies. Put the game on the easiest difficulty. During the tutorial, beat five enemies in a row using solely melee attacks (Hands-On Approach and Feeling Punchy – Bronze and Silver).

Go on to complete the tutorial (Straight-A Student – Bronze) and then pause the game (Take 5 – Bronze). Then on the first level, draw an enemy near a fire extinguisher and also stand nearby before shooting it (No Pain, No Gain – Bronze) and complete the level without dying (Just A Flesh Wound – Silver).

Move straight onto Legends Of WrestleMania. Win matches using five or more reversals (Technician – Silver), only using grapple attacks (Grapplemania – Silver) and performing a dive attack from all four corners (Dive Attack – Silver).

Then created a legend (Created A Legend – Bronze) and use him to beat ten opponents in Legend Killer mode (New Legend – Silver). Finally, win using a manager in Exhibition mode (Manager – Bronze). Easy enough.

Finally, Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs spits out a lot of easy Trophies. Completing it yields three Bronze Trophies, three Silver and a Gold and shouldn’t take more than a few hours. There are a few easy, weird ones to grab.

Use the spaghetti rope in Italian Street Fair 30 times (Pasta Power – Silver), climb up and down the bread 50 times in Restaurant Row (Bread Head – Silver) and re-assign your pad to the second player and join in the game to unlock the co-op Trophy (Party Of Two – Bronze).

TOTAL TROPHIES: 99

19-21 HOURS

Megamind

Platinum: 1
Gold: 7
Silver: 8
Bronze: 10

Another final Trophy burst comes courtesy of Megamind, which takes even less time to Platinum than Terminator Salvation and is arguably even easier, the only difference being this has a few Trophies you can miss, unlike Terminator’s complete-it-and-get-everything quirk.

Again, you can walk away with a Platinum Trophy in three hours and level select means the few missable Trophies in here are easy enough to revisit once you’re done.

One set of Trophies asks that you complete a level without dying – do it on the first level – and also that you beat the bosses without dying; the bosses are found on levels 3, 6, 9 and 10.

If you die, keep going and complete the game anyway, as you can return to the bosses using level select in your hideout. However, as none of them are particularly difficult, you shouldn’t have any real problem tackling them. For final boss Blue Tighten, just focus on shooting the debris he throws at you and the column he tries to hit you with.

That leaves the collection of B.I.N.K.E.Y., which are the glowing objects you find dotted around each level from beating enemies and smashing objects, the hardest Trophy demanding you collect 3,000 of them in a single level.

This isn’t even a concern, as you should have the requisite amount done during level 2. Don’t worry about this Trophy and just play through normally, as it would actually be something requiring you to go out of your way not to unlock by the time you complete Megamind.

TOTAL TROPHIES: 125

22-24 HOURS

DeTuned, Linger In Shadows

Platinum: 0
Gold: 1
Silver: 10
Bronze: 15

With your mental state now crumbling following a non-stop assault of games and Trophy pings, let’s finish you off with two games that make no sense. First up is PSN title .deTuned.

To get all the Trophies available, read the help screen, watch demo mode until the end, rotate the left analogue stick, rotate the right analogue stick, hold down R2 to maximize an effect, press X and O then watch Rob dancing on the building off to the right, go through all the listed button combos, enter Carnival mode and rotate the right stick so all the elephants dance around the chair.

The only tricky Trophy is that you have to play custom music – rip some to your PS3’s hard drive first. Do all that and you’ll walk away to the tune of four Bronze Trophies, five Silver and one Gold.

Finally there’s the insanity of Linger In Shadows, another tech demo doing its best game impersonation. Start by pressing X, then pause it and shake the Sixaxis to get you started (Sigil Of Time – Bronze). Now follow these instructions.

Pause and hold L2 until the bar is full at 2:11. Pause and rotate the Sixaxis to fill the bar at 3:06. Pause and press Circle at 4:48 when the cat appears. Make the monsters eyes light up between 5:14 and 5:19, 5:24 and 5:32 and then shake the Sixaxis at 6:03. Now you have to get the puzzle pieces. Pause at 3:13 and look for the little poster with the hand, pause at 3:35 and look for the locust sign under the mannequin, pause at 4:21 and look to the left for the sign-like sigil, pause again at 5:04 and look at the paper by the cat and finally look to the left of the monster at 5:41 and at the sunflower. All done!
