Gaming goals for 2018?

[leptonic]

My 2018 goals:

• Pop at least another 40-60+ plats in a single day (doing that twice this year), currently have 2 saved
  
• Unwrapping minimun 10 games from my old backlog and play them at least at 50%
  
• Play PS3 more than PS4... (very unlikely tbh)
  
• But first of all... keep playing as much as real life allows..

Don't usually have specific goals, but figured why not try one this year.

 

So in 2018 I would like to set a new personal high for platinums in a year. So that would mean I need to get 38 or more plats this year. I'm at 1 right now.

With another little on on the way this year...

 

I'm not making any gaming goals. Just to play when I have the time

 

[ShadowEpyon10]

Just mostly clear the PS3 backlog which isn't super huge in terms but a fair few RPG titles in it such as Dragon Age 2 and Lightning returns, but I have a lot of games close to completion so may start posting on the boosting sessions.

[twyz]

Focus on completing my PS3 games that I started but never finished. ACIII, Borderlands 2 and Dark Souls are three big ones.

 

Also, I'm gonna try to earn a trophy a day and see how far I can keep that up.

 

Well, I only made it to the 13th. Haven't turned on my system in the last three days.

[MidnightDragonDX]

I finished my initial goal, so here are a few others:

 

Get to at least 2,500 trophies

Get at least 25 platinums

Earn at least one platinum every month

Reduce backlog more than increasing it

 

If I meet my first two goals, I'll up them. But think it's a decent start.

[shrapx]

trying to get more trophies in mega man legacy collection (1).

challenge mode is hard. very hard.

i stand about 34 bronze or so, 16 or so silver and 10 or so gold.

need 50 of each.

 

wanna revisit 10 too and get 100%.

 

1 is done.

 

short term: plat resident evil 0

[Rhapsody13]

My only general "resolution" for 2018 is to not buy any games. I went on a bit of a buying spree with leftover Christmas money, so I should be good on that one.

 

While I'd like to cut back on cumulative video gaming time in general to focus on other life goals, I'm hoping to dedicate some focused time to my (purchased but not started) backlog this year. First, though, I'm planning to work what's already on my profile until my PSNP percentage reads something more like 60-70%. Minimum 50% per game (except for TESO, haha), and we'll see where it goes from there...

To see 100% completion for the first time since I started collecting trophies. At least once, no way it's going to stay there for long though lol.

[esstee11]

Gaming goals for 2018 hmm..

 

To get more 's than last year. Which was 40 something.

 

And to buy on release day and attempt to be on the first platinum achievers board for 'days gone' and 'the last of us 2'.

 

[Metdevil]

Planning on retiring from trophy hunting. Gaming goals for 2018 is to play only games that I want to play, for the sake of playing it.

Also, lots of FFXIV.

[Reymi004]

I am too busy with university nowdays so I will put trophy hunting on a hold for around 2 years. I will just play what I like from time to time.

[Combatting]

Clear my PS3 backlog once and for all.

[Aela]

Hit all my goals last year, albeit I don't set them too high as I'm not the most frequent with trophies. However this year I'd like to try and hit:

 

• 45 UR platinums
  
• 75 total platinums
  
• 1,000 UR trophies
  
• Trophy level 24
  
• Do the Crash ting

Oh and i'm going to add to this:

 

To get at least one zombie related or horror plat each month!

[Gnyg]

My goal is to raise completion rate by finishing up my backlog. The most important thing for me is to get my moneys worth, bought a lot of games earlier that are collecting dust. What a waste.

[Respectable Inn]

Try and beat my platinum count from last year, work on finishing dlc for plats I already have and tackle my digital PS3 backlog. I also need a replacement PS3 so I can work on my PS3 retail backlog, will check the prices in cex and Game when I'm flush with cash.

And i want to add a 2nd add on lol:

 

This year soonish i want the motivation to finally finish/plat Batman Arkham Knight and Deadpool.

 

Both these games have been left unfinished for about 2 years, theyre not the hardest of difficulties but for some reason ive been struggling with both. If anyone has these plats n wants to drop me a msg for some help advice n tips so i can get the job done then feel free it would be appreciated.

Im a slow gamer when it come to single player games and such and my backlog has gotten very huge. I decided that this year i wanted to lower it down.

 

I am gotta play at least 1 and maybe 2 if possible, games a month. But its gonna be single player story and any achievements/trophies mop up are optional...

 

On my list to do this year on the Xbox Side i have

 

Shadow Warrior (Done in January)

The Darkness 2 X360 (Currently playing in Febuary)

Rise of the Tomb Raider (March or April for sure)

Skyrim Xbox One (this one could take 2 months for sure)

Witcher 3 (again, could take 2 months)

Vampyr (release end of March, will play in April or May depending on ROTR)

Kingdom Come Deliverance (very interested in that one, not sure when ill get it)

Splatterhouse if it become Backward Compatible, if not ill check if i play it on 360

GTA5. I own the 360 version and i stoped playing years ago cause of something, i kinda want to get it for X1 and do it on that one...

 

On the playstation side its a little more obscure, i know for sure im getting the PS4 this year. Hopefully before June. I already have bough Yakuza Kiwami and Uncharted Collection is in the mail. I loved so much Uncharted 1 but this week i came across Uncharted 2 on PS3 for 5$, i couldn't resist, i think im gonna play it before i get the PS4. But hey i can always replay 1 and 2 next year on the collection. Otherwise i have a very specific list im interested to play but i dunno when ill do them.

 

But right now i can say i want to do

 

Uncharted 2

Resistance 2 (But i will need that 360 shaped controller first cause FPS with a PS3 controllers are just terrible, i did Resistance 1 that way and urg lol)

Killzone 1 HD

 

I would be very happy if i do those before June plus the 360 games.

 

Also some achievements/trophies to mop when im done with a game during the month and there still days left.

 

Honestly tough, i know when i get the PS4 ill start playing Neverwinter again a lot more for the trophies, so well... lol it will be time consuming. It slowed me down a lot on Xbox One obviously as i played thousands of hours into this.

[Destro WOD]

 

7: Take a harder line with games that have microtransactions and try harder to avoid buying them.

 

8: Work harder to support the developers who use good gaming practices and shun the bad ones who don't.

 

 

Amen to that. I also decided to do the same. FUCK LOOTBOXES and greedy business practices. I will make an exeption for Gears of War 5 and Halo 6 only because i play those series since 2006 and 2002. But i never put a dime in Halo 5 or GOW4 lootboxes and ill do the same. Hell if GOW5 has a shady system like GOW4 has, i may even buy it "used" just to make sure to not encourage such dirty practices.

[Blue Diamond]

One of my big goals this year is to informally retire my PS3. I have the following games left to finish on it:

 

Uncharted 2 multiplayer

Uncharted 3 multiplayer

The Last of Us multiplayer

Sniper Elite V2 two missions left to complete for plat

 

I'm debating whether or not to then play Sacred 3 that I downloaded when it was free, the Metal Gear Legacy Collection, and the random Tomb Raider game I have. But once I knock at least those four games above over, I will be playing the PS3 much, much less. I've had it for 8 years and purchased it with my very first paycheck. It's given me such great fun over the years

 

My other couple of goals:

 

- Reduce unearned trophy backlog from 231 (as of today) to less than 100.

 

- Reduce the number of games I don't have at 100% from 20 on my trophy list (as of today) to less than 10. I have a larger backlog that ISN'T on my trophy list yet (ie. Nioh, Resident Evil, mostly games I've downloaded but haven't played yet), but my intent is to finish some of the games currently on the list, then start new ones as I feel comfortable with progress.

 

- 100% 7 out of the 8 games I have on my trophy list that require multiplayer / online. U2 and U3, U4, TLoU, Resogun, Helldivers, No Man's Sky. The 8th is Elder Scrolls Online, which I have no hope in hell of ever 100%. So I'll have to live with that. Lol.

 

If I can accomplish these goals I'll feel quite proud.

My goals for 2018 are simple:

- Get Plat and 100% on as many of my old PS3 games as possible;

- Continue with Plat and 100% on PS4 games;

- Get between 75% and 80% game completion.

[toughguypete]

I try to maintain about one platinum per month, but I will try focus on PS3 games, who knows how much longer it will be online
