Thexder Neo is a remake of the popular game published in 1985 by Squaresoft. It's a side-scrolling action game in which players control a transforming robot through a series of maze-like levels. Players must destroy enemy robots along the way by shooting them with laser beams. Most enemies react to damage by disappearing in a colorful burst; boss battles depict more protracted combat with louder and more realistic explosions.

 

 

Walkthrough:

 

1: Complete the Game on Easy.

There are two levels of difficulty you can choose when you start a new game i.e Easy and Normal. The first step consists in playing the game on Easy difficulty and achieve 14 trophies out of 20 available. Destroy all the enemies in the 10 levels and don't forget to look for the secret ones! Also you can complete a level without using the shield without problems.

 

At the end of this phase you should have:

 

(B) Intruder

(B) Daredevil

(B) Easy Does It

(B) Total Recon

(B) Level 1 Annihilator

(B) Level 2 Annihilator

(B) Level 3 Annihilator

(B) Level 4 Annihilator

(B) Level 5 Annihilator

(B) Level 6 Annihilator

(B) Level 7 Annihilator

(B) Level 8 Annihilator

(B) Level 9 Annihilator

(B) Level 10 Annihilator

 

2: Complete the Game on Normal.

Normal mode is more difficult than the Easy one but you should consider it as a training for the Classic Class trophy. Also if you want to get Century Club (Reach level 100) you've to know that you need about 3 hours, because there's not a save function in this game.

 

At the end of this phase you should have:

 

(B) Power of Ten

(B) Golden Achiever

(S) Century Club

 

3: Complete the Online mode.

The Online mode is pretty easy but it's completely abandoned. You've two solutions: Ask for a booster in the Trophy Boosting Thread or download the game on a second PS3 (maybe you can rely on a friend) and invite each other to join the match. For the trophy Networker you have only to send an invitation to a friend, it doesn't matter if he accepts or not, just send it.

 

At the end of this phase you should have:

 

(B) Networker

(B) First!

 

4: Complete Thexder Classic.

This trophy can be a real pain for players who don't like old and difficult games, in fact most of the trophy hunters skip this trophy, leaving a 95% of completion in their trophy list.

 

This version of Thexder is the classic one published in 1985, with the same controls of Thexder Neo, 16 levels instead of 10 which are in the remake, very very difficult compared to Normal mode. Probably it'll take you few days of playing, especially because you need to get confidence with this mode, but at the end you'll be able to achieve this and watch your trophy list proudly!

 

At the end of this phase you should have:

 

(B) Classic Class

 

5: Clean up.

This step is optional. If you've missed some trophies (Especially the Annihilation ones), this is the moment to get them!

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Intruder (B)

Played THEXDER NEO and entered Nedium.

 

Start a new game in any mode of the Neo version to get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Daredevil (B)

Completed a level without using shields.

 

Self-explanatory. Don't press :square: for the whole level and at the end you'll gain this trophy. I suggest to do it during the first level on Easy mode. If you've problems doing it watch this video by KingSuperOne:

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Easy Does It (B)

Completed Level 10 on Easy Mode.

 

Start a new game on Easy mode and complete all the 10 levels. NOTE: if you complete level 10 on Normal mode, this trophy won't pop, it must be done on Easy mode.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Power of Ten (B)

Completed Level 10 on Normal Mode.

 

Start a new game on Normal mode and complete 10 levels. This mode is a bit harder than the Easy one (the enemies are stronger) but nothing to be worried about.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Golden Achiever (B)

Completed Level 50 on Normal Mode.

 

After completing 10 levels on Normal mode, you'll repeat them until level 100. The only difference between these repeated levels is the final boss, which becomes harder. Complete level 50 to unlock this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/02.jpg Century Club (S)

Completed Level 100 on Normal Mode.

 

This trophy is a time-consuming one. It'll take you about 3 hours of playing and you've to pay attention to your health especially when you're at the boss stage, which can defeat you without problems during level 70 or above. Also there's no save function in this game so if you die you'll restart everything from level 1!

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Total Recon (B)

Uncovered all secret enemies.

 

Secret enemies are the ones hidden in the walls of each level and you'll hear a "ding" when you discover them. You have to destroy all of them in a single playthrough to unlock this trophy at the end of level 8 (There aren't secret enemies on level 9 and 10). See the Level 1 Annihilation trophy for more info about their locations in the game.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg First! (B)

Won first place in Online Play.

 

Win a match against someone else while playing Online mode. At the moment there aren't people doing matches, so follow my tips written in the Roadmap to unlock this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Level 1 Annihilator (B)

Destroyed all enemies in Level 1.

 

Another self-explanatory trophy. At the end of the level you'll see your score and the % of enemies killed. If it's 100 then you'll get this trophy. Pay attention to the secret enemies in each level, if you miss them you won't unlock Total Recon and this trophy. KingSuperOne has made some fantastic videos about the Annihilator trophy set, you can watch them here: Thexder Neo: Annihilator Trophies

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Classic Class (B)

Completed playthrough (16 levels) of Classic Version.

 

This is probably the most difficult trophy in the trophy list. I've already talked about this game above in the Roadmap. The only advice I can give you is "keep trying"; it doesn't matter if you lose on level 1 just keep trying! Some levels are similar to the Neo version, but other ones are very different and they can give you a bad surprise (like a Game Over).

 

KingSuperOne's videos gave me a huge help. I suggest you view them on a phone/MP4 player and play them while you're playing Thexder, this way you can stop the game and see who's waiting for you: Classic Class videos

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/382/01.jpg Networker (B)

Invited someone.

 

Just send an invitation for an Online Game and the trophy is yours. It doesn't matter if your friend accepts the request or not.

I'd like to thank KingSuperOne for all the videos, my English teacher for all the English I learnt until now and myself because I've found the time to write this guide :D.

 

If you find grammatical mistakes, something wrong or missing inside the guide or anything else, please report them to me with a PM. Thank you for reading!
