Pierce Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 (edited) I have plat'ed the game. Voting a 5 for the following reasons: - You have to replay a series of 3 levels of a location to get a rating for that location. There's a trophy for getting Gold rating for all locations. Problem is, the rating system is not very obvious, for example, I have gotten gold even when dying 8 times. As you play the levels, you will not know what ratings you will get at the end (I have had good feeling about the rating during but gotten silver or bronze at the end before). And in order to get good ratings, you have to do every thing (kill as many enemies as possible, smash everything, get all the 'coins', die as few times as possible, do all challenges, get all stars), cannot just quickly run through the levels (timing is definitely not factored into the rating). So potentially you can be replaying the same levels over and over, with no certainty on the outcome. (At the least you will need to play every level twice, in order to unlock all costumes.) - The kill-count trophies have high dependency on luck. You need to get certain kills per use of certain power-ups (like the freeze ray), but what power-up you get is random. I have spent 45 min restarting a location over and over just to get to use the freeze ray but never encountered it. A couple of the kill counts (freeze ray, medusa) can be hard to execute (tip: hold the square button, don't press/release repeatedly) - Considerable skill level required (platforming, melee, a bit of puzzle solving, exploring 'outside the box' to find collectibles), especially compared to games like Up. - It's tedious to grind all 45 costumes to level 4. I know time-to-plat should not be factor in plat difficulty, but it's worth taking note of this. EVERY COSTUME PLAYS EXACTLY THE SAME. There is no melee/range, tank/magic/agility, weapon effects and other difference between the costumes at all. It can get very booooring (the elevator versions of the movie theme music don't help either). - ADDITIONAL HARDWARE REQUIRED. You need 4 controllers to plat. I know that my scale is different from others, so please mentally adjust my difficulty rating accordingly. For reference, my - 1 and 2 are reserved for sure-get, effortless plats. (Up, Megamind will be 1. Dr Blowhole needs more work, so 2). - 3 to 5 are not really difficult, but needs more work, has considerable uncertainties, more grinding etc. (For the record, Hannah Montana is 3 to me, cos one song is quite difficult, had to repeat many time.)

Ballin404 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 There were about 4 collectables i missed and had to do a little searching for, but that was about the only hiccup I had. Nothing is missable, no glitches, all trophies pop when there suppose to and no need for a guide. It just takes a little while playing every level twice and upgrading every costume. 3/10 difficulty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbond22 Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 (edited) I was torn between a 3 and a 4, I went with a 4. Once you figure out what you are doing and realize it is much easier to get a gold on your 2nd playthrough it is pretty easy. There is a little bit of grinding, but overall its not hard at all.

biller88 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I'll go with a 4. It took me a little getting used to, but once you figure out good strategies for beating the mini bosses and learn how to not die to massive groups it's manageable. I found doing my ground smash the most effective way to clear out large groups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juzam666 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) 3. Other than time consuming, nothings bad. the game gets very boring after you beat it once. If you got bronze on a level your 1st time through, youll have a little tougher time. As of right now, theres no guide for the collectables, but theyre very, very easy to find other than 1 or 2 areas. Even then, theyre just very easy to find.

Geng1s Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I'm giving it a 5 not because its hard but because you want to shoot yourself in the face about half way through getting the gold in all worlds trophy. A lot of Grinding and not a hell of a lot to keep you interested while doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerd And Me Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I gave this a 4 for the plat. The game wasn't terribly challenging but it was very repetitive after a few of the levels. Considering all the costumes had all the same features, it didn't allow for much variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyripper Posted January 21, 2012 Share Posted January 21, 2012 4/10 Easy gameplay and getting a gold ranking is not that hard after the first runthrough. I highly suggest this game if you have kids, but as a trophy hunter, it is rather dull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadSashimi Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 VOTED 3 The game is not difficult, to a certain extent. I found the 2 trophies people seem to have problems with: "Unstoppable!" & "Champion of the Universe", were easier than people make them out to be. Unstoppable! During levels that I had to replay in order to unlock the 2nd costume and gold rank, I effortlessly finish many levels without the use of any respawns. Champion of the Universe I've only had to replay 1 level that I missed a gold rank: "Aladdin, Cave of Wonders.". During Part III, the scrolling area, I miss out on the HEX Mini Game and ~150 coins because of an inconveniently placed POWER UP (right next to the HEX Arcade) that i picked up, that prevented me from using the HEX Arcade & dragging an item to unlock a 2nd path leading to a lot of coins.

pera Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Gave it 2. Very easy trophies all. Just time consuming in the end to get all costumes to 4 star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaychow7w Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 2, this game is boring and little Time consuming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
felatio Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 3/10. Nothing too difficult, getting gold on all the levels is pretty easy just get all the money you can and the collectibles, free both of the prisoners on each level and pass the challenges. The most time consuming trophy is maxing out each characters level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZDAN Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Gave this a 2, nothing difficult and only a couple of the collectables are missable if you dont have a good look round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jessycka Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Grading a 5 because of the length of time required redoing levels. Secondly, having to upgrade all costumes and GET GOLDS. This is the hardest. This game is taking a lot longer than I thought it would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissa7725 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 The hardest part for me was getting a gold ranking on the aladdin world. Other than that the collectibles were fairly easy to find and the bosses were not too challenging. Great game overall to play with friends.

poetic_justice_ Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Grading a 5 because of the length of time required redoing levels. Secondly, having to upgrade all costumes and GET GOLDS. This is the hardest. This game is taking a lot longer than I thought it would This is not a hard platinum, but it is a LOOOOOOOOOOONG platinum. Upgrading all 45 costumes to 4 stars is tedious. Yes, I wanted to run and jump off a cliff myself. Great game for kids, but don't fool yourself. This platinum is a significant time investment. EDIT: Finished the platinum. Difficulty is a 4, but I rated the game a 5 by reason of sheer mind-numbing boredom! Aladdin's Agrabah Palace is the trickiest level, but once you realize how the puzzles work it is not too bad.

themarv Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Gave it a 3. Very easy trophy list, it's just long and tedious maxing the costumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahxbabes Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I scored this: 2 Very easy plat just takes a lot of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeatEM Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 give this a 3 and fun little game, until you need to grind and play the same levels 2x, which will get repetitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al7asreh Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 its not that hard i give it 3 easy lvling and just lay tow player and collact evry thing for gold plat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 I couldn't decide between a 3 or 4, but I chose 4. There were a few "locations" that I had to replay multiple times to get the gold rating. I switched costumes after every level, so once the game was complete (with gold ratings) I only had a handful of costumes that still needed to be maxed out, but that's just time consuming- not difficult. Overall I'm glad I picked up the game. It was pretty fun. It did get moderately repetitive, but I still found it fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GearsOfTheDead Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Voted a 3 because it's not hard, but like others have said, the grinding to collect costumes and level up to 4 is tedious. I did have fun until the grinding and then the fun went away. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmylad Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 gave it a 2, not hard at all, just a tad time consuming with the costume grind which sapped the fun out of it. http://card.psnprofiles.com/1/BEANO_BRFC.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HC_ja_Niina Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 2/10 I didn't have any problems with any of the trophies. Only tedious ones were grinding all costumes and trying to get a specific power-up for that trophy. We played together with my mrs. from start to finish and managed to get all gold ranks pretty easily. I'll have to say the game got really boring towards the end.
