Road Map

 

Step 1: Complete 50 episodes of the Game Show.

While going through 50 episodes for the Super-Star! trophy, you will no doubt earn the majority of the other trophies. Note that you do not have to win, just complete 50 episodes.

 

The only trophies you should really try for at this point is Knock 'em Down & Scrabble Flash Veteran. For Knock 'em Down, when playing Yahtzee Bowling do not keep any pins and roll again. You can do this 3 times thus earning you 15 pins toward the 600 each game. At game 40 (S)Knock 'em Down will pop. For Scrabble Flash Veteran, simply try to earn as many points as you can during Scrabble Flash. If you need help, try Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help.

 

Some tips to make the games go faster after you've earned the majority of trophies:

  • For Bop It!, do nothing. In 18-20 seconds the computer opponent will win.
  • For Connect 4 Basketball don't move left or right, just shoot the ball while aimed at column 4. The computer usually aims elsewhere and you can repeat this to get a vertical victory. This will also get you the Hot-Shot trophy if done in under 45 seconds.
  • I don't have any tips to make the game go faster for Scrabble Flash. For me this was the best game of the 5 games, certainly the most fun as well. You can try Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help if you need help with finding words. Just remember they must be family friendly words. For example one set of letters you'll see is P, A, R, S, E however RAPES and ARSE are not accecptable words.
  • Sorry Sliders, again as with Connect 4 Basketball just shoot your slider.
  • For Yahtzee Bowling roll once then accept the hand. But be sure to do this after you have earned Knock 'em Down.

Step 2: Individual games

Time to play the games outside of the game show format. Play each game once to earn (B)Snack-Time and (S)Snack-Pack. You will also want to go for Extreme Bop It's (G)2 the Max trophy, (B)Speed Shot in Connect 4 Basketball Speed Shot, (S)Quick Thinking in Scrabble Five-Letter Flash, (S)Sorry Sliders Sumo! in Sorry Sumo Sliders and (S)Dead Eye in Yahtzee Bowling Crazy Lane.

 

Step 3: Clean up.

Missing anything? Well now is the time to earn any trophies you may have overlooked. :)

The most time consuming of the trophies, each Game Show takes around 12 minutes. However, you do not need to win, you just need to play through and complete 50 episodes.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/06.jpgSnack-Time (B)

See Snack-Pack.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/07.jpgSnack-Pack (S)

Finished each of the 5 games outside of Game Show (against Computer Player)

Instead of choosing to play the Game Show, scroll left or right and you will find you can play each of the games individually. Play a game of Bop It, Connect 4 Basketball, Scrabble Flash, Sorry Sliders and Yahtzee Bowling all against a computer opponent to earn this trophy. Again, you do not need to win.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/08.jpgJr. Boptologist (B)

Hit 10 Bop It! commands in a row without missing

See Whack-a-matic.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/09.jpgBoptician (S)

Hit 20 Bop It! commands in a row without missing

See Whack-a-matic.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/10.jpgWhack-a-matic (S)

Hit 30 Bop It! commands in a row without missing

I recommend 2 players for this trophy as I was unable to earn it with a computer opponent. You could also try to use 2 controllers by yourself. During Bop It, the announcer will shout various commands, then you must press the button matching the command he gave. At first the buttons you need to press will be displayed on screen, but after a few commands this will disappear. You must get 30 commands in a row without making a mistake to earn this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/11.jpg2 the Max (G)

Hit 30 Bop It! commands in a row without missing in Extreme Bop It!

The same as Whack-a-matic, but in Bop It Extreme there are more commands. Again, 2 players are recommended.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/12.jpgBop It! Master (S)

Finished 25 games of Bop It!

Can be earned while playing through the 50 episodes of the Game Show. Just complete 25 games of Bop It. You do not need to win.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/13.jpgHot-Shot (B)

Won a game of Connect 4 Basketball against the Computer Player in under :45 seconds

See Flawless Victory.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/14.jpgStrong Arm (S)

Shot at least 100 balls, lifetime total, in all Connect 4 Basketball games

This will come over the course of the 50 Game Shows. You should have it as early as game 25.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/15.jpgFlawless Victory (S)

Won a round in 4 shots in Connect 4 Basketball

Do not move your aim, just shoot the ball as soon as you can (down then up on the right analog stick :rs:). You should land the ball in column 4 and if the opponent hasn't done the same thing, repeat until you have 4 balls in a row.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/16.jpgSpeed Shot (B)

Shot 10 balls in under 35 seconds in Connect 4 Basketball

Using 2 controllers, start a game of Connect 4 Basketball Speed Shot. The second controller can do nothing. Using controller 1, shoot basketballs (looks like volleyballs to me lol) as quick as you can but make sure not to get 4 in a row. As soon as you shoot the 10th ball, and it's under 35 seconds, the trophy will pop.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/17.jpgConnect 4 Basketball Master (S)

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/18.jpgQuick Thinking (S)

Created 7 words in one game of Scrabble Five-Letter Flash

Scrabble Five-Letter Flash gives you a set of 5 letters and you must make one five-letter word from them. If successful, you get another set of letters to find another word. Create 7 words in one game to get this trophy. If you need help, try Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/19.jpgHuman Dictionary (S)

Created 50 unique words in Scrabble Flash (lifetime)

This will come naturally over the course of the 50 Game Shows. If you need help finding words, try Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/20.jpgHigh Score (G)

Scored 28 points or higher in one game of Scrabble Flash

Try to go for the 5 letter words first, then the 4 letters. If you are having trouble, play with a second controller and make player 2 find only 3 letter words while you find 5 & 4 letters. Remember to try Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help if you need help.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/21.jpgScrabble Flash Veteran (B)

Earned 1,500 total points (lifetime) in Scrabble Flash

You will earn the majority of these points during the 50 Game Shows, but you will be short some even if you get 28 points every time. Continue to play Scrabble Flash by itself using Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help if you need help.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/22.jpgScrabble Flash Master (S)

Finished 25 games of Scrabble Flash

Can be earned while playing through the 50 episodes of the Game Show. Just complete 25 games of Scrabble Flash. You do not need to win.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/23.jpgDenied! (B)

Knocked an opponent out of the five-point zone in Sorry Sliders or were knocked out

This should come without trying, however once your opponent has landed in the five point zone aim your slider directly at theirs. Shoot it to knock it out of the five point zone.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/24.jpgSorry... Not! (S)

Finished a game of Sorry Sliders where the opponent didn't earn a point

In my opinion, the most difficult of all the trophies. I do not know if using the Move would make it easier or not.

 

If you haven't earned this after your 50 Game Show games, start up a game of Sorry Sliders with 2 controllers. Make player 1 play as normal. For player 2, move your slider all the way to the right, hit :cross: and then aim it all the way to the right. Here comes the hard part. Slowly pull back on the right analog stick :rs: then slowly push it up. If done correctly, your slider will move very little, possibly hit the wall, and stay in the green Sorry zone thus earning you zero points. Make sure player 1 does not knock it in to a point zone during their next turn. During player 2's second turn do the same thing except aim it to the left.

 

Additional tip from Rob Madgwick

The way i got the (S) Sorry... Not! was to use 2 controllers

 

STEP1: push the 1st players slider all the way to the left and tweak the angle of the arrow so its just under the middle the letter S of the word SORRY on the runway, give it full power and your slider will bounce off the target area wall 3 or 4 times coming to a stop half way round the right hand side.

 

STEP2: Have player 2 finish anywhere apart from the trajectory that p1 took.

 

STEP3: Repeat step 1 with a fraction less power

 

STEP4: Repeat step 2 and await that shiney silver trophy :dance:

 

I confirm that p2 can get the trophy it does not have to be p1

 

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/25.jpgSorry Sliders Sumo! (S)

Played a game of Sumo Sliders in which two Sumo Sliders were knocked into the Sorry zone

Start up a game of Sumo Sliders and purposely aim for the big blue Sumo slider pieces. Knock two of them into the green Sorry zone, and make sure they stay there to earn this trophy. If the computer opponent is causing problems, start the game with 2 controllers instead.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/26.jpgSorry! (S)

Won a game of Sorry Sliders against the Computer Player

As it says, simply win a game of Sorry Sliders against a computer opponent. You should get this without trying during one of the 50 Game Shows.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/27.jpgSorry Sliders Master (S)

Finished 25 games of Sorry Sliders

Can be earned while playing through the 50 episodes of the Game Show. Just complete 25 games of Sorry Sliders. You do not need to win.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/28.jpgTurkey (B)

Won a game of Yahtzee Bowling against the Computer Player

As it says, simply win a game of Yahtzee Bowling against a computer opponent. You should get this without trying during one of the 50 Game Shows.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/29.jpgDead Eye (S)

Knocked over every pin with one throw in Yahtzee Bowling Crazy Lane

Aim towards the pin on the left side of the lane. When shooting try to use full power. With any luck the pin on the left will end up knocking over the pin on the right side of the lane while the bowling ball will knock over the remaining 5 at the end of the lane. This one took a few tries to get but don't give up!

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/30.jpgYahtzee! (S)

Got Yahtzee

Easiest to obtain during a game of Yahtzee Bowling Crazy Lane. Yahtzee if when you get 5 dice all the same number. You do not have to do this in just 1 roll, you have 3 rolls to attempt this.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/31.jpgKnock 'em Down (S)

Knocked over 600 pins in Yahtzee (lifetime total)

Can be earned while playing through the 50 Game Shows. When playing Yahtzee Bowling do not keep any pins and roll again. You can do this 3 times thus earning you 15 pins each game towards the 600.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1013/32.jpgYahtzee Bowling Master (S)

Finished 25 games of Yahtzee Bowling

Nice guide Kami and i thank you for your sliders tips. During peggle I found that pressing :square: straight after the opponent/computers turn often netted a quick 3 letter word, this may speed up the process a fraction.

 

The way i got the (S) Sorry... Not! was to use 2 controllers

 

STEP1: push the 1st players slider all the way to the left and tweak the angle of the arrow so its just under the middle the letter S of the word SORRY on the runway, give it full power and your slider will bounce off the target area wall 3 or 4 times coming to a stop half way round the right hand side.

Great guide, thank you!!! One thing that i was wondering, as player two can net all of the trophies for ingame objectives ( tried and tested by me), do you think that player twos scrabble and bowling pin count will count towards the 600 and 1500 trophies??? If so this will seriously cut down game play time as you will be able to blag the 1500 in the 50 games and make the yatzee quicker by confirming first set of pins each game (exept for five gameshows) if you understand me?!?

 

I will report back when it's done!

Ok I will let yalliance know once I have had a chance to go for it (a lot of work on at the mo) will hopefully let you know by Friday.

 

Yes I am terrible at this game as I lose passion for the game. I let the girlfriend win so so far player two has got almost all of the60% of trophies so far

 

Sorry bad grammar, writing on iPod is tedious

this just dropped onto my mat from blockbuster rentals, hoping to knock out most of the trophies early, and then finish it tomorrow by playing the 50 gameshows. thats going to be tedious indeed.

 

also isnt sorry sliders an old game? i know ive played in on the XBLA version of fgn 1. it was an expansion game. it wasnt too bad, but the rest i dont think you could play in real life.

Whack-a-matic

Hit 30 Bop It! commands in a row without missing

I recommend 2 players for this trophy as I was unable to earn it with a computer opponent. You could also try to use 2 controllers by yourself. During Bop It, the announcer will shout various commands, then you must press the button matching the command he gave. At first the buttons you need to press will be displayed on screen, but after a few commands this will disappear. You must get 30 commands in a row without making a mistake to earn this trophy.

 

 

If you press "Start" right after a command, you can think about the next Button(s)you have to press. After pressing "start" aagain a 3-Second-countdown will run and afzter that you can press the right button. In this way the trophy is very easy. Even the gold trophy.

 

Edit: sorry, didn't see the post above...

You will earn the majority of these points during the 50 Game Shows, but you will be short some even if you get 28 points every time. Continue to play Scrabble Flash by itself using Scrabble Helper, Literati Word Builder - Scrabble help if you need help.

 

If you did not get enough points while playing for Super-Star! you can get this Trophy by using a Turbo-Controller with the Turbo-Function on X. You will earn points mostly when the countdown of your turn ends....

This worked perfectly! Made this an extremely easy trophy to get.

 

Also note: You can get ALL of the trophies on Extreme Bop-it! You don't have to do the regular and extreme separately, just get 30 commands on Extreme and it will give you all 4 of the trophies ('10', '20', '30', and '30!')!

Right, I would like to add that the second player does count toward the 600 pins and the 1500 points on boggle trophy.. so try and make sure that you play in two players all the way through until you get those trophies!

 

I got the 600 pins on my 18th game, and the 1500 on my 33rd game!!!

 

Good luck and hope this helps

ok, there is a way to boost this 50 games but it will require you to purchase a special controller....... I didnt think to do this but I tried it after I finished the bloody game! IF you have an arcade fighting controller..... they cost around £40 if you dont but its usefull for boosting singing games.... set a macro button to go (up, down, up, down, X, square, X, square) then set it as your turbo button. turn on game, put and elastic band on the button and leave it! this is a bit of a cheat so get ready for some trophy guilt! after completing 50 though I feel your pain, it was a killer!!!!

 

good luck all!

Does anyone know if you can hit pause and quit when its adding the money, that part for me is the biggest waste of time, i notice it saves when the money adding starts but havent wanted to risk it, maybe someone on their close to last game could try this?

 

No, if you've gotten any of the trophies for playing the game shows, you should have noticed that the trophy doesn't pop until after the money totals have been counted and the winner is decided. It's pretty lame, yes, I hate sitting through that crap too, but it's technically considered a part of the game show. The show doesn't end until the winner has been decided. ;) They really need a skip button like a"tally all the cards and let me skip all the talking" button.

They really need a "skip the frigging whole bloody show" button, but yes he is right, 100% wont count if you pause and quit any of it!!!

Can anyone explain how you do the Deadeye trophy a little more in depth? Ive given it a few goes but the ball just rolls down the left every time :(

 

- Nevermind just got it, i aimed a little to the right of the first pin on the left, hit it as hard as i could and it spun really fast over to the one on the right. Once i got the hang of it could do it most turns lol :)

  • 3 weeks later...

you might wanna note that the EU version is a lot more hell to go trough:S instead of playing 1 round for each game you play best 2 out of 3 (with with 2 rounds being min and 3 max), this excludes scrabble (wich is called boggle flash, but it's the exact same game). the fact you gotta do more rounds makes this plat 2-3 times as long as the US version (so like 25-30 hours!), on top of that, there are a lot of trophies where you gotta win in a sertain way, I'm having a hard time getting them as you will have to do the requirements for EACH round in order for the "game" to count! so yeah, it's harder and WAY longer, you should definitly put that in the roadmap, I dunno about adding extra stuff for it to the trophy guide, but for some trophies I just have no idea how to get em... (your guides has good ways to get it done for 1 round, but it usualy takes a couple of tried, the chance of getting it perfectly right twice in a row is just not that big...)
