I've not played too many racing games in my life. In fact, it has mostly been kart games, like Crash Team Racing and Hover Kart Battle, but I have played Gran Turismo 5 and WipEout a lot. The racing can both be very easy and very hard in this game but is at no point unbearably hard. There's lots of fast racing cars and many play modes along with online and offline multiplayer. This will be my second/third Road Map/Trophy Guide, and yes I know there is already a guide for this game, but I got some tricks up my sleeve that will change how you play this game entirely. I only got the version I bought cheaply in the PlayStation store at some sale they had there. I have one person in NA region with disc version who reports the cheat code not working for them! The trick is a cheat code. You just input it with your controller in the middle of a race, and you will instantly win the race. Yes, this works in all modes with the exception being online and being somewhat glitchy in the tutorial, but none of the exceptions makes the any harder. It even heavily reduced the time needed to get the , only the loading time will be very bothering. I found it by random while raging. I got angry when I started a career race, and there was no option to go back to the main menu while racing in the qualification round. I tried the old +++++ for a soft reboot. While this didn't reboot the game, it did make me win the race! Please report back to me if there is something wrong or if there is anything you think needs an improvement. Road Map The secret to fast and easy success: There's a little cheat code for the game that I discovered by an accident. It's very simple. After you start a race, and the 3, 2, 1, GO messages has disappeared from the screen, you can hold down the button and a little number will appear in the bottom left corner of the screen. This number decides what spot you end up at when you activate the cheat, and you can change it by holding down the button and pressing the button. To activate the cheat, and instantly end the race, hold down and press ! Unless you've changed the number, it should already be at 1, so all you need to do is to wait for the GO message to disappear before pressing and holding down the button and then pressing once to win the race. Wait for the 3, 2, 1, GO messages to disappear + This does not work with all the (NA) disc version(s) of the game. Step 1 (career mode): You'll want to do the career mode first, but you should combine the trophies that unlocks from completing career mode with some other trophies. The career mode might be a bit confusing to find, because it's also called Challenge mode. You must do most of the races on elite difficulty for a couple of the trophies. Trophies you should get while completing the career mode: Credit Where Credit is Due Clean Credits Not Counted Out Glued To The Track Lap Master No Fear! Circuit Challenge New Style HUD Zen Challenge Accepted Passport Stamped Up and Coming Bound for Glory Stage 1 Check Stage 2 Check Stage 3 Check Stage 4 Check Stage 5 Check Challenger Story of a Champion Challenge Dominated Looking Left Who is the Fairest Wet Paint Finish in First! Step 2 (grinding): Before you start the grinding part, you should make sure you've got the trophies mentioned in step 1 and the following trophies: 9 Lives Solid Gold Rebellious Victory Supercar Superstar You should now have about 200,000 credits and you need to get to 1 million credits for the trophy Millionaire . Fast way to grind (5k per 40th second): Choose single player, quick race, any car, any race setup, HOMESTEAD OVAL, any options. Use the cheat to win the race and choose to race again. Step 3 (online boosting): Before starting this step, then you should create your own livery and save it if you haven't already done so. Creating a new livery will get you the trophy New Style and you will need to have created a new livery for one of the online trophies. This step is very short, takes about 3 minutes if done right and can be done whenever you feel like it. The 4 trophies you are aiming for: Styling 'n' Profiling Race Off Show Off Continental Racer Boosting thread Step 4 (clean up): Just get the trophies you miss, which should be: Crash Test Dummy Shopaholic Congratulation on your Superstar !

I don't give many in-game tips for how to easier beat some of the races, but that can be easily added. There really isn't much to say except using a certain car and always try to come first in the qualification round, play with as much automatic stuff as possible.

There really isn't much to say except using a certain car and always try to come first in the qualification round, play with as much automatic stuff as possible. For the Millionaire trophy I see that it says save up 1 million dollars but just to be clear, you should state that you need to have 1 million dollars at a time. I just finished the career and bought a bugatti veyron only to realize it says "save up". I haven't started my grind yet but I assume you mean it's not accumulative, it's gotta be at one time. Maybe you can clarify? Also, I had a damage meter in the beginning when I first started racing but after tweaking some settings for other trophies, it's not there anymore. I now need the 9 lives trophy and I can't tell what my damage is at during the race. I have damage turned on in the menu but that still doesn't display the damage meter. Any help?

There is a warning on both the Shopaholic and the Road Map! But okay, I will add yet another on the Millionaire trophy. Damage doesnt show up in a quick race so do challenge/career mode on monza (italy) with damage on and auto break off. Crash often and you'll get trophy there, I believe you just need to go into the pause menu and change some settings there. One of the damage trophies (smash it completely) can only be gotten through career mode. I can add to the guide where you change the settings to see the damage. It's basically two different settings menus, and I think under certain difficulty levels you can't change some of the settings. Thank you both for feedback. I'm wondering about one thing, have any of you got the game from the NA PS store? =) Can I edit the guide to say it works with all PS Store versions?
