I've wanted a wallpaper of that first image in the OP since the game was announced but have never been able to find one. Does a bigger version of that picture without text actually exist anywhere?
I can't comment on that image specifically (it's the JP boxart so shouldn't be too hard, plus the game has had a lot of promo material in Japan; if not the text can be Photoshopped out), but there is a beautiful theme for the game available for around 200 or 300 Yen in the Japanese PS Store. Chances are it won't go up on US (you'll find out tomorrow), if not, then check it out on JP.
yes, because unlike most trophy hunters, i like the challenges all the trophies add to the game/alert me to new things ti try in the game. This thing sounds ripe for it, made for all these extra challenges. Plus its $15, back in the day that was pretty much standard at that price. If I bought this game w/o plus or bought the $35 move game on psn a few weeks ago (another game where they could of added loads of trophies for lots of challenges, it was a party game for pete's sake) thinking it had a plat and then finding out it didn't I would have been PISSED OFF.
netguy503, I've seen you ranting about wanting your "plats" and all in other threads. Well, I have news. Trophies on
PS3 software are near worthless. They have been manipulated and cheated to mass degrees the past year...all with no punishment or acknowledgement from SCE. Play games for the games, with trophies just as a checklist in the background. There are so many "ace 100%" cheater trying-to-look real profiles out there that your efforts to get a handful of "plats" is meaningless. The only reason one would want a Platinum list as opposed to a smaller, concentrated list is to boost their trophy level %; again, meaningless due to cheaters going up 40 levels in a few weeks. Play for yourself and the game.
As for wanting more trophies for reasons of wanting more things to do/more replay value, that's understandable. But from what I've seen you're going to be doing most of what the game offers in the trophy list, only things not there would be to survive even longer or other misc. things. Like I said about "concentrated" lists...would you like a full list of 50 with Platinum but with tons of freebies you will get without even looking at the list (going against what you said about wanting more for replay value), or a concentrated list of say 12 of all the highlights of that Platinum list without the freebies? Either way, in both forms the game remains the same.
