staytrue1985 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 (edited) The world is a very big place, and there are some wonderful places to see. Whether you want to see the tea in England, the freedom in America, the kangaroos in Australia, or the sand in Bahrain, we have got you covered! It is time to dust off your passport, hop in to a Plane, Train, or Automobile (or a ship if you prefer) and see some of the gorgeous countries our planet has to offer. As an added bonus, if you wish to earn yourself a beautiful little site award to go with the countries you have visited then you will need to have earned 60 different trophies containing the name of a country. Rules Any trophy in your history will count. It doesn't matter when you earned it. The name of the country can be in the trophy title or description. Nationalities don't count. You can't have Spanish for Spain, for example. Collect 60 different unique countries to earn your award. We are not the UN and are not interested in geopolitics or the technical definition of a country, so the list below is a list of countries we will accept. The trophy doesn't have to be referring to the country for it to count, as long as the word is correct (e.g. - 'Turkey' as in the animal, but that would still count). Post a message in the Custom List Sign-Up Thread to submit a country. LIST OF COUNTRIES AND CLARIFICATIONS Spoiler Afghanistan Argentina Armenia Australia Austria Bahrain Belgium Bolivia Brazil Cambodia Canada Chad Chile China Congo [Republic] Croatia Cuba Cyprus Czech Republic Egypt England Estonia Finland France Georgia Germany Ghana Greece Greenland Guinea Guyana Hungary Iceland India Indonesia Iran Iraq Ireland [Republic] Italy Jamaica Japan Jordan Kazakhstan Kenya Laos Latvia Lithuania Madagascar Malaysia Malta Marshall Islands Mexico Monaco Mongolia Montenegro Morocco Nepal Netherlands New Zealand Nigeria North Korea Norway Oman Panama Pakistan Peru Philippines Poland Portugal Qatar Romania Russia Scotland Senegal Seychelles Singapore Slovakia South Africa South Korea Spain Sweden Switzerland Tajikistan Tanzania Thailand Tonga Turkey United Arab Emirates USA Venezuela Vietnam Wales Yemen Clarifications We know some of you will ask if place X is a trophy, so the EDs will make a judgment call when we need to. Great Britain is the name of the island that comprises of England, Scotland, and Wales, and is not a country. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China. Kingdoms We are not accepting the name of Kingdoms, but we will be accepting the names of the countries within. Kingdom of Denmark - Denmark, Greenland, and Faroe Islands Kingdom of the Netherlands - Netherlands, Aruba, Curacao, Sint Maarten United Kingdom - England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland Republics We will allow you to drop the word Republic from a country if it is something that is usually done and still makes sense. Republic of Ireland, Republic of Korea, Republic of the Congo - Ireland, Korea, and Congo are commonplace shorthand. Czech Republic - Czech is not common shorthand. You don't go on holiday to Czech. Swiss Confederation - The official name of Switzerland. You can have 'Swiss Confederation' if you can find it, but not 'Swiss'.

AshtimusPrime Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Checking the sheet, you've obviously included only those countries that exist as trophies. I assume you'll add others if necessary, like Kiribati, Suriname or Eswatini? You never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stpatty Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 (edited) Just in case I'm a bit stupid, is there a way to search my trophies to see what I've earned without going through every game individually? Edited July 21 by stpatty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meikoro Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 How can i check my Trophy Log for this? Where can i type the Countrys in and search this. I will never check 50.000 Trophys all one at one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where can i type the Countrys in and search this. I will never check 50.000 Trophys all one at one It isn't difficult. 1. Go to psnprofiles. Select the trophies tab at the top. 2. Use the search box on the right and type in the country of your choosing. Example: 3. Sift through the results. It's easier to just glance at the games on the left. If you own or have played the game in question then it stands to reason that you have possibly earned or at least can earn the qualifying trophy. For those of us with 50,000+ trophies and hundreds upon hundreds of games on our profiles, If you aren't sure whether or not you own the game or if you've earned the trophy, simply navigate over to your own profile and use the search box above your list of games to check. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stgermain Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Unfortunately, the method above won't return trophies that only have country's name in the description and not in the trophy name. For those, I go to google and write "site:psnprofiles.com/trophies country name". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meikoro Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Alllllllllright. I will maybe check this. Still im thinking a site like truearcivements or something you can search your profile exactly. But don't know wich site it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link is just underneath the leaderboard. Very helpful! I see 2 games I own that others have used which can give me a few more countries in the near future! I'm only 12 off but could get 5 more pretty easily, the rest I'll have to hope there are games that I can use that aren't racing games. 1 hour ago, stgermain said: Unfortunately, the method above won't return trophies that only have country's name in the description and not in the trophy name.

I was looking up country names in the trophy titles first, than I just went through my list of games that feature locations around the world and trying to hope I could find something that worked! Here are a few games that had countries in the descriptions that I used: Call of Duty (many rare locations especially the Black Ops series!) Tomb Raider series Uncharted Also Super Blood Hockey and Glass Masquerade will get you halfway there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry ST I'm making the call here, but no, you get one country per trophy. No double dipping!! *St will call me mean, it's warranted, deal with it* =p 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Krid Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Nice to see this idea finally be official. I’ve got a decent amount but don’t play enough racing games to ever get close to 60, even if I smashed out Glass Masquerade. Thought there was a Bahrain trophy in one of the F1 games, obviously I was mistaken! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Contrary to ST's beliefs, we do think some of his ideas are good enough to warrant official .org events of sorts. Sometimes -p (<3 you) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Respectable Inn Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 This looks so cool! I'm away on holiday for about 10 days, taking a break from gaming for a bit at the same time but I'll check back over my history to see what I can do here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
