Voting Guidelines Do not vote unless you have played the game. Do not vote until you have dedicated a substantial amount of time towards the game. Do not vote based solely on the descriptions from the trophy list. A time consuming game does not necessarily mean a difficult game so vote accordingly. Examples; Warhawk is time consuming and difficult. Resistance 2 is time consuming, but not difficult. [*]Vote with honesty and integrity. Platinum Difficulty Summary: olsen77 said: The difficulty for this platinum lies in the skill to make it through Survivor, at least the first few levels anyway. All of the trophies can be attained in one playthrough on Survivor, but the first few levels are pretty difficult with limited ammo, no upgraded and basic weapons, and only a couple of plasmids to choose from. Going through on Survivor with Vita-Chambers disabled will earn you all of the difficulty trophies. There are a few other trophies to watch out for as well. “Lucky Winner” (hit the jackpot at a slot machine) can only be done in Fort Frolic and is based entirely on luck. You might burn through all of your money trying to get this one. Save before and reload once you get the trophy (or completely run out of money). “Historian” (find every audio diary) isn’t too bad, but there are about 120 audio diaries in the game. You can go back through all the levels using a bathysphere to search for diaries once you’re at the end. The only ones you can’t go back for are the two in the first level (Welcome to Rapture). “Tonic Collector” also seems to give people some trouble. Maxing out the camera research and rescuing all of the Little Sisters should make this one pretty easy. olsen77 said: The challenge rooms can be pretty difficult. The trophies for rescuing the Little Sisters are pretty easy once you have the puzzle figured out. You can find video guides for the locations of the roses on Youtube. The difficult ones are the speed runs (at least one of them) and the task trophies (“Pacifist,” “Master Electrician,” and “Tough Guy”). A few times to experiment with what works and doesn’t and you’ll figure out the best ways to get those trophies. There are also Youtube videos for those. The DLC trophy that will cause you the most problems is “Worlds of Hurt – Expert.” Using the crossbow and going for headshots helps because you get one hit kills, but for the most part, it’s practicing the level enough that you can get through each room as quickly as possible.

Misantropus Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Very easy Platinum, attainable in one playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAUREANO011691 Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Very easy Platinum, attainable in one playthrough. did u get it in one? it took me 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyramat Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 did u get it in one? it took me 3 Yeah same here. The game is more enjoyable on medium as opposed to survivor though. On survivor I just wanted to get through the game but on medium you can explore and stuff without worrying if there's someone waiting for you around the corner.

aliensNmycloset Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 yea it is a very easy platinum. just a lil tedious b/c you have to find all of the tonic and bs like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abuebao Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 (edited) I rated this game a 5. Just have to play on survivor and you unlock all the other difficulties which makes platinum very short. You will die a lot however, and there is a lot of stuff you have to pickup on the way. I got it all in one playthrough though, but had to backtrack a few times. My advice for anyone going for platinum is to make sure you have a good guide for all the tonics, plasmids, etc. The guide here on the site is pretty good, but had to search for the maps on another site for the tonics and plasmids. Also, the best possible combination (believe it or not) is the wrench and Electro Blast plasmid. Learn how to master these and you will find killing your foes much easier. http://card.mmos.com/psn/profile/ab/u/Abuebao/card.png Edited August 28, 2009 by Abuebao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryanmushr00ms Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 platinumed in one play through, just had to get 1 more diary that i forgot, and got the platinum. its really easy after you get the crossbow and have the hypnotize big daddy plasmids. i give it a 4 not time consuming, a little hard in the beginning, but thats it.

HolyBeast Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Rated it 4. Easy one, "Survivor" isn't too hard. My advice for veteran shooter-players: start out on this difficulty and get all Trophies in one playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordMaceX Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I am currently doing my I Choose the Impossible run, but my Brass Balls run went decently and I am already at Fort Frolic without too much trouble besides big daddys. Big Daddys on survivor can be a real pain so I gave it an 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mee-Gell Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 (edited) i agree with most of the stuff said. trophies are straight forward and somewhat easy, just time consuming. i beat the game 3 times for all trophies. like people have said. more enjoyable on medium so my first play through was on medium, then i beat it on hard for the tropies i missed which were three. (besides the beat the game trophies) the only trophies you truely have to have any worry about are the three i missed my first playthrough and those are avid inventor, tonic collector and historian. just dont kill sander. for the love of god dont kill sander. i just downloaded the DLC and those trophies are kind of hard. so for th main tropies i give a 5 but for the DLC i give 7.5 Edited April 14, 2009 by Mee-Gell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jqtaxpayer Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I voted this one a 5... if you've got good guides for audio diaries and tonics and such, the only trophies that should give you trouble should be the Survivor-related ones. That being said, as difficult as Survivor seems upon your first Big Daddy encounter, it gradually gets much easier as your character gets more powerful -- particularly if you pick up the health and eve upgrades (I didn't until the last level for fear of missing the tonic trophy twice, which is where many of my difficulties came from). The trophies can be earned in one playthrough, though that's not how I did it. Not a big deal for me, though, as this is one of my favorite games this gen.

Misantropus Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Interesting poll results, this must be the game voters disagree the most on the trophy difficulty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiiAmigo Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 As long as you know which Tonics work best and complete the Research on everything (Soon as you get the camera click, click, CLICK away!) then this game can be a breeze to get the Platinum.

Sabbae Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Gave it 8. Reason: I think most of the trophies where easy, as you get em by following the story. The -Tunic Collector-, -Historian- and -I Chose the Impossible" trophies where pretty tough tho. Besides the DLC isent needed to earn the platinum, but it sorta did to me. Looking at "Bioshock - Platinum - 87 %" just wasent good enough for me. So im counting them in my vote. The DLC is really fun and hard, made me happy when I got em!

tduds Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I didn't vote on this one, as I have only played for about 2 hours at a friends house, but i would just like to throw out to those who are voting it so low, that if you don't follow a guide and have someone lead you around it is a little more difficult and that those people who are saying 1 playthru but have played it before(xbox pc etc) thats not really one play through thats like saying you can beat it in one play through if you have already played through once... wtf sense does that make? From what i have seen/heard/ and read (two friends have the game and one is platinumed it already) this game requires more than one play through but isn't necessarily a killer challenge even with requiring multiple play throughs. just my two cents.

adp88888 Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I gave this game 5. Easy to Platinum, but you need to look everywhere and take your time. The game is not very hard on Impossible. Great game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowDownToTheKing Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I gave it a 5. I managed to get it in one playthrough. It's a little hard in the beginning when your character isn't strong at all, but it gets a lot easier. By the end, I wasn't having trouble at all and it felt like I was playing on medium or something... It's just time consuming to get all the audio diaries and the tonics, but as it was said, with a good guide it can be easily done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUSPUFF Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Gave it a 6. One word - Challenging... Nowhere near impossible or crazy hard. You just need patience and to use your head [and save game feature lol] for Surviver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimFear Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 If ive played the game and i have all of the trophies before playing survivor. If im playing survivor without killing big daddy will it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUSPUFF Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 If ive played the game and i have all of the trophies before playing survivor. If im playing survivor without killing big daddy will it work? Interesting question... I did same thing... 1 play through on normal and i Saved all the little sisters... then on Surviver i Drained them all so i could see the alternate ending... Never though about skipping them... On second hand .....you will make your game extremely hard if you dont kill atleast some...you need the Adam to get your Plasmids and health upgraded.. Try it if you want. Lets us know how it goes lol... would be curious to see how you manage with just conventional weapons and few helper/low level plasmids.

JimFear Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 i just started a game at normal but i think i will try it. All i will have to do is trying to avoid enemies the more i can i guess haha =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToAsTeR Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I about to restart because I am on "hard" and bump it up to see if I can get them all on one play through. Which strat guide do u guys suggest I use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
