Introduction:

 

Super Hang-On is an 80's vintage arcade classic. It's been remade for the PS3 and has the easiest trophies you could hope for. While game provides 4 different tracks of varying difficulty and a Trial Mode that offers an online leaderboard, you never technically have to play anything but the first beginner track to obtain all 12 trophies. The ability to change the difficulty settings makes for an easy and fast 100%. Regardless of the quick trophies, if you're a fan of vintage motorcycle arcade games you'll enjoy your time to 100% and be willing to continue playing afterwards.

 

Controls:

:ls: - Steer

:r2: - Accelerate

:l2: - Brake

:r1: - Hold it down for turbo boost

 

Steps:

 

There is only one step really. Every trophy can be obtained by playing the beginner course. The gold trophy, The Goal is Just The Beginning, isn't even difficult if you toy with the difficulty settings. You have to complete the course for this to pop and one course is literally one race. All of the other trophies will either come through natural play as you strive for this gold trophy or can be obtained by playing the beginner track and making the situation happen that the trophy warrants. The game is another easy and simple 100%.

 

Alert: Don't fill your scoreboard up with a hard score to beat otherwise you'll be fighting against yourself for the Unforgettable Name trophy. See the trophy description for more information and for an easier way to go about getting the trophy.

Finish a course

 

Choose the beginner track. It will only have 6 checkpoints. You need to get through all 6 checkpoints and to the end without the time running out. If you change the difficulties in your settings you'll get 60 seconds for each checkpoint. You'd have to TRY to mess up to not get the trophy.

 

Few points:

  • Go to the game settings and change the difficulty to easy and time limit to very easy.
  • Use turbo as often as you can safely. You use turbo with the :r1: button. It activates when you reach 280km/h and is unlimited.
  • The first 3 checkpoints are easier so boost like mad.
  • Try at all costs not to crash (though if you look at the video, I crash twice and still make it with plenty of time)

Ride for 1 minute without hitting anything.

 

Use the beginner track. Just take it easy and don't hit anything for 60 seconds. If you set your time difficulty to super easy you get 60 seconds right from the start. Just go easy getting to that first checkpoint.

 

See video under Always Full Throttle. I got both trophies at the same time.

Ride for 1 minute without braking.

 

Use the beginner track. Just take it easy and don't hit the :l1: button at all for 60 seconds. If you set your time difficulty to super easy you get 60 seconds right from the start. I hardly used the brake button anyway so you should have zero issues with this.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpgEat My Dust (B)

Pass 100 rival riders

 

This is cumulative. Even though you start off with 7 other riders you pass a ton of them as you're driving. You should have this within a course or two depending on how well you're doing.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpgI Meant To Do That... (B)

Crash 10 times

 

This is cumulative. Just run your bike into the trees and signs on the side 10 times. It will come naturally or you can just get it out of the way by repeatedly hitting things as I did in the video:

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpg Melodies of the Wind(B)

Listen to all 4 songs

 

When you start the game and choose your track you're then given the option to choose a song. Just choose a different one each time you do a course and it will pop.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpg One With The Wind(B)

Hit 324km/h using turbo.

 

Turbo becomes available when you reach a speed of 280km/h. You can then use turbo by holding down the :r1: button. It doesn't take long for it to hit 324km/h so just hold it down and don't crash. You can get this at the same time as the Totally Radical! trophy because you'll max out at 324km/h while turboing for 10 seconds straight.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpg Totally Radical!(B)

Ride for 10 seconds on turbo.

 

This is done the easiest on the first checkpoint of the beginner course. As soon as you can turbo just hit :r1: and hold it down. Take the turns as best you can and don't let up until 10 seconds has passed. It's not difficult at all.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpgSo Close (B)

Run out of time just before a checkpoint.

 

This will most likely come naturally as you play. If not, you can attempt to make it happen though be aware that the bike naturally moves forward. You can't brake and wait so you'll have to time it perfectly. The time needs to run out right as you get to the checkpoint.

 

The best track to do this on is the first Beginner track. Allow the bike to progress forward naturally. DO NOT ACCELERATE. Just as the timer is hitting 27 seconds take off and don't make any mistakes. You'll run out of time JUST before you get to the checkpoint and the trophy will pop. If you go off road or run into anything you'll run out of time way before the checkpoint. So the 27 seconds assumes you'll get there flawlessly.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpg The Kiss of Fate(B)

Cross the checkpoint with 1 second left.

 

Similar to So Close except for this one you need to cross with just 1 second left on the timer. Should come naturally as you play or you can attempt to make it happen by timing it perfectly and crossing just as you have 1 second left.

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpg Unforgettable Name(B)

Fill a track ranking with a single name.

 

When you finish a track a leaderboard shows up with the points you've accumulated. Fill that board up with the same name. You can put whatever you want (I just did AAA) as long as it's the same each time. When the board fills up with that name the trophy will pop. If you keep beating your high score it will happen faster.

 

Totavier has an easy method:

 

"When you are going to end the race (by time or finish line) quickly press select and save your game, after put your name in the scoreboard and back to the main menu (select course), press select and load the previous save, when you go to the scoreboard you will see your original score again and you can put again your score, making the trophy more faster to earn.

 

Example I end up with this scoreboard:

 

Rank Score Course Name

1st 8170000 6 CCL

2nd 8170000 6 CCL

3rd 8170000 6 CCL

4th 8170000 6 CCL

5th 8170000 6 CCL

6th 8170000 6 CCL

7th 8170000 6 CCL"

 

If you happen to get a really high score on the scoreboard that you're having trouble beating you can delete your save file and try again with the above method

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1543/BDA.jpgThank You! Thank You! (B)

Crash your way through a checkpoint.

 

This will come naturally as you play or you can make it happen by running your bike into something on the side right as a checkpoint comes up. You're thrown forward when you crash so if you hit it right you'll be thrown across the checkpoint. If you use the Expert track there is a sign to the right of the first checkpoint. It's RIGHT before it. Crash into it and it'll throw you through. You don't even have to be accelerating when you hit it.

nice guide, but do all the trophies require you to be online as mentioned in your first post?

 

None of them required online play when I did it. The trials portion of the game which involves none of the trophies requires online though, so that's not really a factor.

 

Nope.. that's a really bad typo. Thanks for pointing it out. I'll fix it now.

Great guide!, help me so much with some trophies (principally the one in using the turbo, i didn't know that where a turbo in the motorcycle since i never played this game in my life)

 

Also i would like to say that i found (by accident) a curious glitch that works in favor with the "unforgettable name" trophy, when you are going to end the race (by time or finish line) quickly press select and save your game, after put your name in the scoreboard and back to the main menu (select course), press select and load the previous save, when you go to the scoreboard you will see your original score again and you can put again your score!, making the trophy more faster to earn

 

in a example doing this, i end up with this scoreboard:

 

Rank Score Course Name

1st 8170000 6 CCL

2nd 8170000 6 CCL

3rd 8170000 6 CCL

4th 8170000 6 CCL

5th 8170000 6 CCL

6th 8170000 6 CCL

7th 8170000 6 CCL

 

I don't know if this can works for others (i need a tester), but worked for me
