Welcome to the first Trophy World of 2010! It seems everything went dead last week, with not a single trophy list posted at all. I have a good feeling next week will have some goodies, but unfortunately, I have nothing to share this week.
I’ve tallied the votes for the Trophy World awards, and I’ve put the top 3 of each category, along with the number of votes and the game it belongs to in brackets. We’ve had lots of ties, so I’ve put them in the order of my personal choice in each category. So, sit back and see what people thought of 2009’s trophies!

Well there you go. Many great games (and trophies) there, and I hope you enjoyed our little award ceremony! Before I finish, I have one more thing to ask: is there anything you would like to see in Trophy World? As long as it’s reasonable, I’ll try doing my best to incorporate it into the feature. It amazes me just how long I’ve been doing this, and it’s all to please you, so please give me any feedback you may have! See you next week, I hope the snow subsides there and you get some Heavy Rain…

How come Burnout Paradise won both Cheapest and Money-Friendly?

Well, cheapest is because it needed a PS Eye, but most have one or have one easily available.

Currently tearing my wig off with Polar Panic’s puzzle trophy. My god, I hate you!!!! Also currently enjoying inFamous (as “evil”) to get some more trophies and check out the different powers. The moment it pisses me off (with a trophy) is the moment I move on.
Flower’s trophies were very well thought through, although I never did get that don’t die whilst swooping through the pylons one.

I never got that one either. And Flower isn’t really a game to grind for trophies is it?

Two Cups One Girl made me lol, never seen that trophy before. I didnt vote in this as i have barely any trophies. Im starting to get an interest, wanting to plat AC2, then maybe MW2 and Trine.
Its not exactly trophy related, but it would be nice if you could work your magic on uPlay stuff. I think it could really take off when more games are added. I got the AC2 theme with my points so far. So if you kinda tell us what we need to do to get the points, that would be great.

To tell you how to get uPlay points in a particular game? Well, for AC2, you’ll end up with all the points if you just finish the game. It’s there on the site the requirements for all the points in a game.
Hope that helps

Is Terminator Salvation that easy, is there some remote chance that even I could get it?

Yeah! I’m not wasting my money on it though, but it seems like the best game that you could rent for a day and finish.

I got the terminator platinum, the hardest thing about getting it was the glitchen of the game in general it takes a lot of will power just 2 finish it. But if u really want the platinum just finish it on hard

Hmm, so awful game but with potential for an easy Platinum. Maybe a rental is in order.

have a nice day!

GTA’s “Auf Wiedersehen Petrovic” should definitely be there for its difficulty and how time-consuming it is – completing every single variation of multiplayer, with the added challenge of Rockstar’s servers!

I shouldnt say this but im gonna speak my mind anyway, as usual.
The voting on this was pathetic, many 2nd and 3rd places only getting 1 measly vote!
I didnt vote because when reading the original post it was overly complicated in terms of thinking of answers. I know Zuler put a good deal of effort into it which is very commendable, this is not a personal attack on anybody in particular. Im just quite saddened to see that this pretty much went down the pooper.
The results are quite meaningless because of its inactivity, a true shame.
Maybe a good old simple survey next time, maybe one of those simple click an answer to register in the future is calling, quite suprised it hasnt been done already instead of all this ‘email me’ stuff.

I see what you mean. I didn’t vote because I’m really not interested in trophies and couldn’t remember enough of any game to even justify having an opinion when it came to voting. However, things looked a bit complicated so a simpler click-n-vote would be great. Then again, it took peoples’ actual-typed-opinions first to get this going. Tricky.
Either way, a big thank you to Zuler no matter how this progresses.

Agreed. It really is ridiculous how small the number of voted were. Now, mind you I normally don’t do these things because you guys are usually giving away T-Shirts and games, not just TSA points, and I don’t think either or us want to pay for overseas shipping.
Mind you, I would if I lived in the U.K., but that has a low chance of happening.

Yeah it was a nice try, but ultimately it didn’t reach it’s potential. What you should of done is done one trophy section a day which would of lasted twelve days – the twelve days of christmas =]
Then you could keep the votes back till the very end, and then post the results in one big post like done above. This way you would of had more people voting as it only takes a few second to think up an answer to the question of the day and then send it in. The format that it was done in probably turned most away from doing it simply because there was so many subject to think of in one go.
Next time I suggest in spreading them out.

This list makes my Demon’s souls platinum shine much brighter
The kill 50 people in 5 seconds trophy in prototype was a cake, getting platinum rating in all challenges is what kept me from getting the platinum. Damn those timed movement events…
