While it didn't have a trophy attached the Excalibur II sword in Final Fantasy IX would only be available if you reached it within a specific amount of time. The time is SO short you have to skip the game's many cutscenes.....which are unskippable in the original PS1 version. You would literally have to glitch the system by opening your PS1 while a cutscene was loading, wait for the error report, then close the lid. This was the only way to skip the cutscene.
I had actually typed out a comment to mention this very game, then thought to check the comments to see if someone else had said it. now I can just upvote yours and hope it gets into the commenter edition!
Actually there was a trick, once the play time reaches the maximum hours (I think it was 99) it starts again from 0 in another colour, so you can pick the excalibur between the 100 and 112 hour.
What Rob doesn't understand is easy actually robs you of playing at the way the developer wants you to play it normal mode is actually the developers preferred way you play it the baby mode is the easy mode
I love the Friday feature. makes my week ending even better. the humor and the true love of gaming is found only by the access crew for PlayStation which is the greatest team ever.
ICO was the first game I thought of when I read the title. I first played it when I got the Shadow of the Colossus and ICO collection for the PS3, and it's easily one of my favorite games. The atmosphere of the game was absolutely amazing!
Same with me. I once had it in my mind that I would try and speedrun Portal 2, since I'd played it so many times that without using any speedrun techniques I could finish the game in well under two hours. For days on end I practiced techniques to move faster and glitch the game a little bit and such, until I realized that I mainly replayed the game so many times to enjoy the great characters and to relish in the dialogue and the story it tells. Without listening to that, it just wasn't the same, so I stopped. I still kind of regret never doing it, but at the same time, I know why.
You forgot another option in Resident Evil 7, Rob! Just beat the game in Madhouse for Infinite Ammo, then wildly fight your way through everything to the finale!
You're spot on with the ICO 'castle guide' trophy. It felt like I had committed some sort of videogame crime or something. Thankfully I got the trophy which eased my guilt slightly. Another great Friday feature guys :)
I've completed the speed runs in Nathan Drake Collection and I was utmost devastated when I took 10 minutes too long on my first try in Uncharted 2. Got it on the second go luckily. Uncharted 3 took me three attempts... It was infuriating.
Aghh. You made me want to play Resident Evil 7 again. It's seriously one of the best video games I've ever played. I was terrified when I bought it and now I speedrun through it. I'm stuck on Madhouse difficulty though.. I'm so close to my first ever Platinum with Resi and I can't get past chainsaw Mia.
The Speedster Trophy from Kingdom Hearts 1.5 wants you to beat the game in under 15 hours, but there is a way around it. The clock in the game only goes to 99:99.99 before cycling back to 00:00.00 - the clock also changes color (from blue to green I believe) to signify that you're over 100 hours in. But the Trophy just reads the time on your save file, not what color the clock is (obviously) - so as long as you kill Ansem before the clock passes 15 hours again then you'll get Trophy easily :).
was that the platinum though i remember the platinum being beating it in all difficulties are something but i may be wrong it has been a long time since i played it still havent gotten the remastered ps4 version
+Trivikram Lokesh Yeah, the Platinum required: beating every difficulty (and they didn't stack, so beating Proud first still meant you hard to beat Normal and Easy), completing the game with your initial equipment, beating the game in under 15 hours (which is possible, but my way is just easier), and never using a Continue. Even cramming several of those into one playthrough wouldn't help in the long run if you happened to botch something in your run. I'd much rather not have to rush my Easy run into a speedrun, and just take it smooth as possible.
Well to be honest, I did "The Dave" after the last safe room in RE7 and it worked out perfectly well for me! Didn't know it to be having a proper name at that time, thought I was doing the chicken run! :p
I feel like the Tomb Raider Trilogy is missing here. I think both Anniversary and Legend had Time Mission Related trophies that were REALLY incredibly hard in some levels.
The Big Boss badge in MGS 4. It requires you to beat the game in 5 hours (fairly easy so far, so long as you skip all the cut scenes), on its hardest difficulty (still doable), AND don't kill ANYONE! That forces you to only use your tranquilizer pistol, and the tranquilizer sniper that you can buy later. This effectively doubles the length of all the boss fights since using the tranq guns forces you to deplete a secondary health bar first.
Rob what's your next platinum trophy after final fantasy XV and congrats on that btw . Are you going to take a well deserved holiday with a solid snake action figure or get started on the next platinum and achieve the satisfaction of more virtual bling ?
Broken Age's "Let's get this time over with" trophy requires you to beat the whole game in an hour, which is tough enough when you consider that the two hardest puzzles have randomly generated solutions. You can save scum past it though, but tbh it wasn't that much fun because you have to skip all the story stuff. All speedrun trophies in Point 'n' Click adventures can sod off in my opinion. Shovel Knight isn't too hard actually, the WR is around 43 minutes or so and it's not like there are any major skips in the game.
100% agree with Rob on the last point, I have a friend who always skips cut scenes than complains he isn't sure whats happening, it's even worse when we do it co-op. There's nothing wrong with taking a breather during a cutscene, or exploring and standing still looking badass.
Just got the Resi 7 speed run trophy today, in VR. Less than 3 hours. Nowhere near the professionals, mind. I think the record is about an hour and a half. Keep up the entertaining videos!
I've played FFIX many times, and never come anywhere close to getting the Excalibur II sword (which disappears when 12 hours of gameplay have passed). Probably due to the multitude of hours spent playing Chocobo Hot and Cold. Oh well.
dont have any of the ones on this list (do have the trophies for speed running specific chapters in the uncharted collection) but also the trophy "Speed of Jason McDonald" in God of War for beating the whole game in under 5 hours. and the "15 minute fight scene" trophy in God of War 2 for battling your way to the loom chamber in under 10 minutes. Great video, always look forward to the Friday Feature.
Rob I feel timed games to finish is rubbish and there should be no trophy for this at all. I too like to take my time unless being rushed by enemies and check things out. All in all I feel some trophies are unfair completely. Like having to play both solo & multi-player for instance. Even having to play the game on every level of difficulty to platinum or get the trophy. I have platinumed games that don't have these ridiculous situations. As always fun topic and funny. Thanks. Cheers
That Castle Guide trophy still haunts me till this day. Nevermind mind talking about getting Platinum in ICO, I can't even get Platinum in any Team ICO games. They are bloody hard!
The speedruns for God of War are all around 1:30 to 2 hours, and I remember finishing the game a few years ago playing normally in like 7 hours. 5 hours can't be that hard, Rob probably didn't add it because it was easy, or at least easier than the ones in the video.
Even if that series ends, Rob also loves the Final Fantasy series and those prob won't stop til Square Enix folds, merges with some other company, or video games stop getting produced altogether.
Rob is the reason I watch all these videos wether I care about the games i'm watching or not. he's like a straight hilarious Alan Carr, I don't mean that in a harsh way but his thumbnail definitely looks like him and the glasses etc. he's quality I like Alan anyway. both funny legends of their own trades.
I am a proud owner of Castle Guide from ICO. It took me about 3 tries before the trophy finally popped. It was hell getting to the end and waiting for the trophy, only to find out that it isn't coming... Especially if you tried it in New Game+, where your playtime isn't shown at the end to know whether you've done it in under 2 hours or not.
Castle Guide from Ico was fairly difficult, but only because of the reworked elements that were made for the Japanese and PAL region editions of the game. The original game on PS2 that released in the U.S. could be beaten in just a little over 2 hours, and that's taking into account how Yorda's AI was borderline broken, while some puzzles were much simpler compared to the later releases that would be used for the PS3 remaster. The biggest hitch for me with that trophy was the waterwheel puzzle, as the launchpad you had to leap from could be a pain to get right because the game didn't use physics for it, so jumping too early or too late could see you not getting the height needed to reach the ledge you needed to climb on.
I got the platinum for Rogue Legacy. My advice is to leave it for last, getting all the collectables makes the castle quite hard near the end on ng+++, so once you start a new game it because much easier to dodge everything :)
1. "The Dave" will go into my daily vocabulary 2. That Louvre bit made heavily snort while having a runny nose (thanks for that Rob) 3. I need more tissues
Rob, what is your fastest play for MGS? I could never get under 5 because I love all the codec conversations and voice acting. My brother managed to get to right around 2 hours with no mucking about. I figured a pro MGS fan like you can boast a pretty good time.
I actually got most of the trophies for Shovel Knight on Vita, including the speed run one. Like any speed run it's just plain super helpful to know the ins and out of the game.
First time commenting, love the work you all do! And since you requested us to tell you if we had any of said trophies I completed Resident Evil 7 in 2 hours 36 minutes 28 seconds on normal, not a great time but it got me the trophy
Rob, I can't believe you didn't include MGS Snake Eater or MGS 4 in this video. Cutseens counting on the time, no kills or alarms allowed. I'm just saying it was a great opportunity for another tally on the Metal Gear Solid bored. lol Also have to say that Friday Features are absolutely my favorite thing you guys do. keep up the great work.
I had no problem getting the Speed Run for Uncharted 2 done - the way it was set up, with time pausing for cutscenes, came in very handy. I struggled with Uncharted 4 though, as it was set up differently (by Naughty Dog - I assume the trilogy speed runs were set up by Blue Point, who did the remasters), and didn't show you a timer, didn't pause for cutscenes, and I always forgot to skip cutscenes!!
I have plated and 100% all three Uncharted games in the Nathan Drake Collection, the speedrun trophies in the collection is actually a lot easier than than the one in Uncharted 4, uncharted 4 is a really good game but I have to admit that it was never ment to be speed runned, lots of loading screens my happen even though playing the game normally you won't see a single loading screen, also would have been better if you can see the real time timer for the speedrun on the top of the screen like in the collection because I had no idea that the timer won't stop during cinematic.
Which Brutal difficulty was the hardest? People say Drake's Fortune is hands down the hardest but I found 2 and 3 tougher because of the amount of flanking areas. Im not even considering 2 or 3 but for some reason I want to do it on #1
It isn't specifically a speed run trophy, but in MGS4, you have to Collect All Emblems. To get the Big Boss medal: you have to beat the game in under 5 hours, don't use health items, nor special items, no continues, no lethal weapon kills. I had to use so many save files, reloads, and wallthrough videos. And this was before the trophies were implemented. Some day I want to get that Platinum. In both Shantae: Risky's Revenge and Shantae and The Pirate's Curse, you have to speed run the game AND get all the collectibles. There is another trophy in each where you don't have to get everything when you speed run. The times are pretty tight.
About the last game on the list: actually, when visiting Paris me and my family had to "speedrun" Louvre in half an hour, because next day - for some reason - the museum was closed and we didn't want to miss it. Thankfully France had great public transportation, so we got from Eiffel Tower to Louvre in just about 15 to 20 minutes or so.
I've got the Castle Guide trophy for ICO. I can confirm it's hard - but if you get the light sabre weapon in the mid-game then the rest of the game will go much quicker during those sections you're forced to fight the Shadows.
Dave finished RE7 within 90 minutes with his eyes closed? Bully him as much as you want, Rob, the guy is a prodigy.
I got the trophy for beating Resident Evil 7 in 4 hours I beat it with 35 minutes to spare
RED SEA GAMING that trophy is really easy though lmao I got it in 3 hours 15
While it didn't have a trophy attached the Excalibur II sword in Final Fantasy IX would only be available if you reached it within a specific amount of time. The time is SO short you have to skip the game's many cutscenes.....which are unskippable in the original PS1 version. You would literally have to glitch the system by opening your PS1 while a cutscene was loading, wait for the error report, then close the lid. This was the only way to skip the cutscene.
Thomas Scroggs it was 12 hours.
I had actually typed out a comment to mention this very game, then thought to check the comments to see if someone else had said it. now I can just upvote yours and hope it gets into the commenter edition!
Ashley Holston same here
Actually there was a trick, once the play time reaches the maximum hours (I think it was 99) it starts again from 0 in another colour, so you can pick the excalibur between the 100 and 112 hour.
That explains how I got it then... Cuz I know for sure I had that sword.
I use the Dave method every time I play horror games, and it works.
I use it for everything
Felix Manning I use a slightly tweaked method: I keep my eyes open
Did you play until dawn like that?
Felix Manning I played outlast like that. 10/10 would recommend.
It doesn't in Alien: Isolation. *sigh*
"#1, put it on easy (I do that anyway, hehe)."
Lmao.
What Rob doesn't understand is easy actually robs you of playing at the way the developer wants you to play it normal mode is actually the developers preferred way you play it the baby mode is the easy mode
Rob finished talking about Spelunky at the 8 minute mark on the video... coincidence? (yes I think so)
Ah damn, I was going to say it XD Nice mate
7:55! Rob lied to me :(
I love the Friday feature. makes my week ending even better. the humor and the true love of gaming is found only by the access crew for PlayStation which is the greatest team ever.
ICO was the first game I thought of when I read the title. I first played it when I got the Shadow of the Colossus and ICO collection for the PS3, and it's easily one of my favorite games. The atmosphere of the game was absolutely amazing!
I spent literally hundreds of attempts trying to get speedlunky... then did it in 5:59! Easily my favourite game of all time
congrats man, now you are part of our elite club
It really is the best game of all time 👍
Ok nobody asked or cares
I could never speed run a game I like to take my time with it.
Same with me. I once had it in my mind that I would try and speedrun Portal 2, since I'd played it so many times that without using any speedrun techniques I could finish the game in well under two hours.

I just love friday features!!! They are best thing of fridays 😄
Adds new meaning to the term TGIF.
They still are.

"The Dave"
FTFY
10:53 - 10:56 is my new ringtone.
"Ugh Storm your way through it, come on, let's go, no time, Bye Mona LIsa!"
Les Grossman he’s just making a joke it’s not weird.
Hey guys, just leaving a comment to thank you for all this awesome content. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching :) -Rob
PlayStation Access hi rob
PlayStation Access just dropped by to congratulate rob on ffxv platinum trophy, okay bye
+Timothy Davies i believe that you didn't hit her, it's bullshit, i know.
You forgot another option in Resident Evil 7, Rob! Just beat the game in Madhouse for Infinite Ammo, then wildly fight your way through everything to the finale!
Azelja X'ril yes I did that I think I recorded it
How do you get past Jack in madhouse? I tried to get to the trap door with the key and Jack is quick very quick in Madhouse.
I only just realized they have Hollie to play the role of the Mom, yet they don't. Now that bit is way more hilarious than it should be. Great job!
shdw787 Pretty sure Hollie isn't in the same place as them.
I heard that's why she left.
You're spot on with the ICO 'castle guide' trophy. It felt like I had committed some sort of videogame crime or something. Thankfully I got the trophy which eased my guilt slightly. Another great Friday feature guys :)
What about Furi? There is a trophy where you have to beat game faster then the guy who created the boss fights.
riemaennchen that game is outlandishly difficult but oh so satisfying
riemaennchen I agree, definitely deserves a spot on the list.
riemaennchen not nearly as hard as the other ones here. I was downed twice in my speedrun and was still like 15-20 minutes under time
Mathias Yap Furi could easily replace one of these game. Probably uncharted 2. That one was so easy
Anthony Dv The puzzles were the hard bit. Combat was easy but cool. So if you know EVERY one of the puzzles in the whole game it's easy
Rob's videos are always so funny. The hare reloaded his save, killed it.
I've completed the speed runs in Nathan Drake Collection and I was utmost devastated when I took 10 minutes too long on my first try in Uncharted 2. Got it on the second go luckily. Uncharted 3 took me three attempts... It was infuriating.
Aghh. You made me want to play Resident Evil 7 again. It's seriously one of the best video games I've ever played. I was terrified when I bought it and now I speedrun through it.

cowboybbp1 that was not hard on easy mode I finished it in about 12 hours.
+Dante Vic But rather than start a new game just for that I prefer to do it my way (since I was at about 80 hours in my 100% Proud run).
cowboybbp1 well if you are after the trophy then you have to play it on all levels as they do not stack In KH. which is easy, final mix an proud.
was that the platinum though i remember the platinum being beating it in all difficulties are something but i may be wrong it has been a long time since i played it still havent gotten the remastered ps4 version

Great vid, like akways, the best parts are "The Dave" and speed run in a art gallery jajajja
I have the Castle Guide ICO trophy, along with the platinum of course!
I swear Rob is my spirit animal
I don't why I completely lost it at 10:48 the way Rob said "Bye, Mona Lisa" was just too funny.
I am delighted by how much Rob's mum featured in this week's episode
I love she's the Ron's mom skits, it's hilarious :D
Just got Castle Guide!! 1 hour 58 minutes 😨 so nerve racking hahah
I got Speedlunkey on steam yesterday... only cost me 60+ hours and 153.7% of my sanity. But I got it.
I feel like the Tomb Raider Trilogy is missing here.
I think both Anniversary and Legend had Time Mission Related trophies that were REALLY incredibly hard in some levels.
lol. "The Dave"
Sadly, whenever I try this, I get caught on a wall or a door or a monster and get killed by everything that's following me.
Rob and Dave- I love this combo!!!!!!
Where is the badger? :(
Nebuladark with the mushroom mushroom
BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER BADGER MUSHROOM MUSHROOM
Adnan Sadiq Yes we do
LemonZeppelin No,more the like with the "potato potato" from Mashed's videos XD
The Big Boss badge in MGS 4. It requires you to beat the game in 5 hours (fairly easy so far, so long as you skip all the cut scenes), on its hardest difficulty (still doable), AND don't kill ANYONE!

Rob what's your next platinum trophy after final fantasy XV and congrats on that btw . Are you going to take a well deserved holiday with a solid snake action figure or get started on the next platinum and achieve the satisfaction of more virtual bling ?
Richard Fredrick my next platinum ( 50th ) will be tales of berseria platinum
I got that Resident Evil 7 Trophy 🏆 and I love watching your videos!!! Keep it up!

I know it's not a trophy but Distortion2 has completed Dark Souls 3 in 45 minutes
Came here looking for Homerunner and you didn’t disappoint. The only one I’ve got on the list.
I'm still voting for a full-length origin story for Delsin Rodent.
Just got the Resi 7 speed run trophy today, in VR. Less than 3 hours. Nowhere near the professionals, mind. I think the record is about an hour and a half.
Keep up the entertaining videos!
I've played FFIX many times, and never come anywhere close to getting the Excalibur II sword (which disappears when 12 hours of gameplay have passed). Probably due to the multitude of hours spent playing Chocobo Hot and Cold. Oh well.
Wait for the clock to go over 100 hours and you can buy it.
I only play pc and xbox but i love this channel
dont have any of the ones on this list (do have the trophies for speed running specific chapters in the uncharted collection) but also the trophy "Speed of Jason McDonald" in God of War for beating the whole game in under 5 hours. and the "15 minute fight scene" trophy in God of War 2 for battling your way to the loom chamber in under 10 minutes.
Great video, always look forward to the Friday Feature.
Does beating God of War in under 5 hours for the Speed of Jason McDonald trophy count as a speed run?
Rick Valdivia ofc
Rick Valdivia that was the 1 thing that came to mind when I saw the vid, I didn't even attempt it
I’M HUNGRY!!!!!!!
Try doing "The Turtle Always Wins" solo in Payday 2. It only took me 4 hours, and a bucket full of tears. I wish I could say it was worth it...
Rob I feel timed games to finish is rubbish and there should be no trophy for this at all. I too like to take my time unless being rushed by enemies and check things out. All in all I feel some trophies are unfair completely. Like having to play both solo & multi-player for instance.

Cheers
"thats not how i remember this going someones messed about with this" hilarious
No MSG for the board? This is still PS Access right?
I remember watching MGSs speedruns.
MGS 3: Snake Eater made the best impression on me :)
Yeah I remember the ICO trophy, good times...
*cough*
Aaaaah! Thank you Rob. This week is finally complete with your Friday feature Rob. Next mission, beer and game's. Cheers dude's and dudettes!
god of war wanting you to beat it in under 5 hours.
Jamie Turner
Yes I thought of that as soon as I saw the vid
cow costume and easy mode= gg avoid all unecessary battles
10:48 "it's like speed running an art gallery", best analogy ever
Thank god snake eater didn't have a trophy for European extreme.. 😐
Hey Rob!! Just saw you platinumed FFXV! Congrats!
Great video, too!
Rob, do you like coke or Pepsi (in any flavour) more than the god almighty Dr Pepper?
That Castle Guide trophy still haunts me till this day.
Nevermind mind talking about getting Platinum in ICO, I can't even get Platinum in any Team ICO games.
They are bloody hard!
What about the speed of Jason McDonald from god of war 1. Beet the game in less than 5 hrs but the pause menu still counts towards ur total time.
The speedruns for God of War are all around 1:30 to 2 hours, and I remember finishing the game a few years ago playing normally in like 7 hours. 5 hours can't be that hard, Rob probably didn't add it because it was easy, or at least easier than the ones in the video.
Luke Swenson Honestly that wasnt that hard
I've started watching ur channel few days ago, all Ican say is, you guys deserve much more subs :)
Can i get a replay from Rob just to know how he feels that there is no more MGS coming out?
aha, lest you forget there's Metal Gear Surviaaaaaggh.......sorry, just gagged a bit there.
Matt Brown Yeah where is Snake in MGS Survival Ahhhh no Snake in MGS Survival mistakes happens.
Even if that series ends, Rob also loves the Final Fantasy series and those prob won't stop til Square Enix folds, merges with some other company, or video games stop getting produced altogether.
Nice, Mr. Nasty from Manhunt
This is the first Friday future without a Final Fantasy entry good job Rob I'm proud of you
How was there a speedrun trophy for ps2 when there were no trophies?
It was ported to ps3
Rob is the reason I watch all these videos wether I care about the games i'm watching or not. he's like a straight hilarious Alan Carr, I don't mean that in a harsh way but his thumbnail definitely looks like him and the glasses etc. he's quality I like Alan anyway. both funny legends of their own trades.
I played outlast like dave
I am a proud owner of Castle Guide from ICO. It took me about 3 tries before the trophy finally popped. It was hell getting to the end and waiting for the trophy, only to find out that it isn't coming... Especially if you tried it in New Game+, where your playtime isn't shown at the end to know whether you've done it in under 2 hours or not.
I have the resident evil 7 trophie with the time 3:59:58
I got in 1:30:27
I'm the proud owner of the "enlightenment" trophy you mentioned. I love ico
Surely the resident evil 1 speed run is way harder I would say so and I've done both
Lewis Czugalinski are we talking bout remaster? I had to play it 3 times to get it.
magita666 get what? To do platinum trophy I probably had to beat it 14 times
Castle Guide from Ico was fairly difficult, but only because of the reworked elements that were made for the Japanese and PAL region editions of the game. The original game on PS2 that released in the U.S. could be beaten in just a little over 2 hours, and that's taking into account how Yorda's AI was borderline broken, while some puzzles were much simpler compared to the later releases that would be used for the PS3 remaster.

Rogue Legacy has a Trophy to finish the game in 15 or less lives. Not a speedrun trophy but kind of.
this trophy is a joke i played it with one character and i died like 1000000 times and didnt even finished the game completly
Chriscross1313 iv beaten the game and all. remix bosses but the complete the game in 15 lives or less is insane 😞
I got the platinum for Rogue Legacy. My advice is to leave it for last, getting all the collectables makes the castle quite hard near the end on ng+++, so once you start a new game it because much easier to dodge everything :)
I never actually “played” gone home, I just speedran it everytime
Rob do you reply?
No -Rob
PlayStation Access hello rob
lol
PlayStation Access ha lol
lol when i saw this comment i was hoping there would be a reply from rob like that
1. "The Dave" will go into my daily vocabulary
2. That Louvre bit made heavily snort while having a runny nose (thanks for that Rob)
3. I need more tissues
hi rob. (Sorry for bad English)
Icerazer 😀
Rob, what is your fastest play for MGS? I could never get under 5 because I love all the codec conversations and voice acting. My brother managed to get to right around 2 hours with no mucking about. I figured a pro MGS fan like you can boast a pretty good time.
Damn on gone home the achievement was only bronze like dafuq bro
Well, it only takes a minute to do...
"narratives that punch all your glowing orange emotion spots" that is classic :")
Hi early people 👋🏻
I actually got most of the trophies for Shovel Knight on Vita, including the speed run one. Like any speed run it's just plain super helpful to know the ins and out of the game.
Why do you guys always include like 4-5 of the same games on your vids???
+AJ Singh 4 of the 7 games in this video have never been in a Friday Feature before. Thanks for watching -Rob
Read this in the voice of Rob - keep up the great work :)
AJ Singh get rekt boy
First time commenting, love the work you all do! And since you requested us to tell you if we had any of said trophies I completed Resident Evil 7 in 2 hours 36 minutes 28 seconds on normal, not a great time but it got me the trophy
Rob, Dave, Nathan....I'd love to see a sitcom of your everyday lives.
Rob, I can't believe you didn't include MGS Snake Eater or MGS 4 in this video. Cutseens counting on the time, no kills or alarms allowed. I'm just saying it was a great opportunity for another tally on the Metal Gear Solid bored. lol Also have to say that Friday Features are absolutely my favorite thing you guys do. keep up the great work.
I actually got the Castle Guide trophy for ICO. It was the most stressful 2 hours of my entire life.
I had no problem getting the Speed Run for Uncharted 2 done - the way it was set up, with time pausing for cutscenes, came in very handy. I struggled with Uncharted 4 though, as it was set up differently (by Naughty Dog - I assume the trilogy speed runs were set up by Blue Point, who did the remasters), and didn't show you a timer, didn't pause for cutscenes, and I always forgot to skip cutscenes!!
Uncharted 4, Strider, Furi, and Oddworld New N Tasty have some pretty challenging speedrun trophies as well.
I have plated and 100% all three Uncharted games in the Nathan Drake Collection, the speedrun trophies in the collection is actually a lot easier than than the one in Uncharted 4, uncharted 4 is a really good game but I have to admit that it was never ment to be speed runned, lots of loading screens my happen even though playing the game normally you won't see a single loading screen, also would have been better if you can see the real time timer for the speedrun on the top of the screen like in the collection because I had no idea that the timer won't stop during cinematic.
Which Brutal difficulty was the hardest? People say Drake's Fortune is hands down the hardest but I found 2 and 3 tougher because of the amount of flanking areas. Im not even considering 2 or 3 but for some reason I want to do it on #1
It isn't specifically a speed run trophy, but in MGS4, you have to Collect All Emblems. To get the Big Boss medal: you have to beat the game in under 5 hours, don't use health items, nor special items, no continues, no lethal weapon kills.
I had to use so many save files, reloads, and wallthrough videos. And this was before the trophies were implemented. Some day I want to get that Platinum.
In both Shantae: Risky's Revenge and Shantae and The Pirate's Curse, you have to speed run the game AND get all the collectibles. There is another trophy in each where you don't have to get everything when you speed run. The times are pretty tight.
About the last game on the list: actually, when visiting Paris me and my family had to "speedrun" Louvre in half an hour, because next day - for some reason - the museum was closed and we didn't want to miss it. Thankfully France had great public transportation, so we got from Eiffel Tower to Louvre in just about 15 to 20 minutes or so.
"Storm through" castle guide - nice pun Rob

Proud Owner of the Ico "castle guide" trophy, clocked in at 1 hour and 47 minutes, most harrowing 2 hour experience of my life.
I've got the Castle Guide trophy for ICO. I can confirm it's hard - but if you get the light sabre weapon in the mid-game then the rest of the game will go much quicker during those sections you're forced to fight the Shadows.
"The Dave" is how I play every single damn horror game xD.
No Metal Gear or Final Fantasy... You OK Rob?... LOL... Love these videos! Makes me look forward to Friday!
