7 Impossible Trophies We Couldn’t Unlock In 15 Years

[@hariumonoke5071]

Omg. It feels like we haven't had a video like this in so long

[@dcd420]

Finally a friday feature

[@peterpenguin1595]

I miss the regular Friday features... Maybe we could get them every other week? (The weeks where we don't get the PS Access Podcast) 🙏😊

[@the8wave]

For real. As much as I like streams and the other content, sometimes it’s nice to see them go back to their roots.

[@rymonddog2317]

These videos are why I like the channel, I'm not here for the long streams, I like Friday features and I like Tuesday checklists

Can't go wrong with a good ol' list video.

[@jadedheartsz]

@@PlayStationAccess I actually got Perfectionist on Crash 4, I actually found getting the platinums harder personally.

Anybody else remember when we used to get something like this every week? Oh, to love through those golden years again...

Yeah, I miss the days before the weirdos of the their new community commented things like "Ash ❤️ 💙 💜 💋 😘 ."

[@theotherandrewowens]

Nice to have a Friday feature again!

[@neferix]

As much as I love these new Friday features; please, for all time sake, give us one of the classic “hello, you’ve caught me…” Friday features.. It’s been too long Rob!

[@joshuaharrison4853]

It feel like 15 years since we had a video like this.

[@Akires23]

Just adding to the pile of saying I absolutely love this style of video. I know it takes a lot of work but it's so good! Thank you!

[@nickofzo]

Good to see Alex included.

[@PlayStationAccess]

Duplicitous Alex.

[@Mikeoneus]

The difficulty of Necrodancer's platinum is truly remarkable. As far as I'm aware nothing else is even playing the same sport, let alone in the same ballpark.

[@d3mystic93]

Ah! The 7 things. The old music. The 2-3 sec skits. And impossible trophies. Great memories.

[@insainraven9875]

I have missed these types of videos

[@TM-jq6fe]

I remember trying to unlock "Navigate like Drake" from Sly Cooper 4 many times. As you know, to unlock that trophy, you have to open the map in every single place you visit. And it is surprisingly easy to miss.

[@loppo561]

Especially the hidden area in the Arabian area where one of the sly masks are located

[@withoutthejuice7193]

Rosies commitment to some of those trophies is truly commendable, I could never have that much patience

[@LeechyPlatinum]

More trophy videos! More Friday features and more PlayStation access 🎉

[@Ninzumecha]

The skipping rope and Skips crisp jokes were really funny 👏 ❤

[@seeleyboothfan2]

FFIX's jump rope is the reason why it's the only older Final Fantasy I haven't platinumed

[@moleshaman3040]

Fantastic as always with the Friday Feature! I hope Ash’s Mad Tangent will become a recurring feature !

[@EagleEye6486]

2:07 Final Fantasy IX 3:30 Mortal Kombat 6:05 Tetris Effect 7:34 Hollow Knight 8:55 Crash Babdicoot 4: It’s About Time 10:17 Crypt of the Necrodancer 11:43 Sackboy: A Big Adventure

[@sirloinestakegames7866]

Of these, I did actually plat Crash 4. I got the majority of Tetris Effect but didn't get the SS trophies either. FFIX hurts my soul 😂

[@ChairmanAntelope]

String It Together is probably the hardest trophy I’ve ever done. I think I would have written it off as impossible if not for Rosie’s epic noodle stream which showed me it was actually achievable.

[@MorphMeep-mw7kb]

Ash is good at them words!

[@ryan011193]

Yep she is. And it’s not a fluke, Ash is like this in every single video.

[@nerdwizard21]

Crash 4 is easily the hardest platinum ive earned. Took me 119 hours. When you consider not a second of that was actually grinding, just getting good and trial and error, it puts into perspective how difficult it is. The game down right punched my teeth to the back of my throat with what it was demanding and it took me 3 months. Its my proudest plat, but god was it painful

[@adeadphish7931]

Why do I take such pleasure in hearing about the Caddick siblings suffering through the brutality of Crash Bandicoot!?

[@teejm1ck78]

They’re related?!?

[@shepherdfury6000]

I got the Perfectionist trophy in Crash 4 and it was one of the most excruciating trophies in my collection.

[@sirloinestakegames7866]

It took me a year of on again off again play 😂

[@shepherdfury6000]

I talked myself out of quitting numerous times. I don't even think this was the last one I got before the platinum, I think it was the relic trophy.

[@priscilabee583]

I will never forget Rosie's Fall guys Trophy on Nathans goodby stream lol

[@JK_of_Today]

Oh wow that sweet sweet clown music is back. I missed it 😊

[@insecdroid]

Oh it’s good to see a Friday Feature again! And my entry in place of “Hail to the King” (as I have that) would be “Emperor” from The Elder Scrolls Online.

[@shadowlinkbds]

11:46 Awwwwwww but we miss Delson.

[@PlayStationAccess]

We let him in the video!

[@bunnyho]

Love the return of the Friday Feature, Love Ash’s Maths, Love Delsin’s cameo and of course Love Alex being part of this video. He is and always will be PlayStation Access. P.S. Alex, I did the same “technique” for the Ripsnorter too!😅

[@stonetimekeeper]

I actually have a couple of these trophies. I have Crash 4's Perfectionist and Hollow Knight's Embrace the Void. I spent too long on both of them. TOO LONG! As for an impossible trophy that would fit on this list: Super Meat Boy's Impossible Boy achievement.

[@layzboi8908]

I thought for sure there was gonna be a Caddicarus cameo at the Crash Entry.

[@sirprintalot]

I thought it'd been too long since a trophy-based Friday feature!

[@nictushazeldine3167]

Aaaah, a good old 7 entry Friday Feature. That feels nice. Being reminded that I miss Elle... Well, now I'm sad.

[@krookedvulture]

Totally agree on the Hollow Knight one ... that has been the one and only time I've abandoned a platinum attempt. (and nice job on the vid Ash!)

[@sibsama]

There is a simple Invincibility Glitch using the Crystal Dash and Dream Gate portal if you wanna get that Plat.

[@krookedvulture]

@sibsama Thanks for the suggestion, but I only want to do it the legit way (I wonder what the completion rate for this plat would be if there was no glitch?) ... I also accidentally made it more difficult for myself by adding an additional boss to the pantheons (maybe I should replay the whole game?) For now, I have made my peace with the fact that I simply don't have the skills for this one lol

[@mnky75]

I decided ages ago, I'm too crap to get Trophies. So when I even get a Bronze (even when I'm playing on my Vita....yes i still play on my Vita), i get that warm delighted feeling

[@esatakan3076]

I LOVEE these Friday Features. These are the type of videos than you guys do better than anyone imo. It’s PS Access at its finest. Please do more :)

[@JoeHurley]

Alex! Ash has tainted your trophy collection forever…. The cheese board. I bet you Camembert it! 😏

[@girl_on_fire_x_x]

Hello 🤗 You've caught me watching a Friday feature - Really nice editing on this one too(!) Honestly, I'm shocked Alex didn't legitimately get the Sackboy plat though. It's an easy one 😜

[@thebman5812]

Yes!! Yes! Before I watched this video, I literally said, there's no way "hail to the king" would not be mentioned. It's the first damn mention!! Lol forget the jump rope...it's cursed. Would it be worse to mess up at 501 or at 999?

[@scottlil01]

The various trophies in the Yakuza and Judgment series that involves finishing the completion list. There's always at least one thing on those lists that stops me getting those trophies.

[@davidhowell2100]

This cracked me up, I've been working on "My Kung Fu is Stronger" on the PS Vita version, which has 32 characters (not 28). Have a nice stats spreadsheet to look at my progress, and I'm at about 33%.

[@ryanhuntley2201]

Top tip for the Sackboy knitted knight trophy, hit pause between sections. My brain just needed a reset between challenges. Also, time barely matters, I had at least a full minute to spare and went very slow in the carousel section.

[@PlayStationAccess]

As we said in the video, it's all psychological...

[@hannigreen3814]

FF9 is one of my favorite games and I did that trophy. Took me 2 days, and to this day, I still don't know, if it's worth it haha

[@SqueeXJones]

I haven’t seen you guys in so long and I’m glad that I started up again

[@TUKMAK]

so nice to see the badger

[@rextitan]

It is once again time to remind Ash that she got me to play hollow knight... And I subsequently platinumed it. Commit to the pain, oh queen of horror. Only through study and practice can you too ascend. Oh and i platted crash 4 too. And you can bet i'm gonna boast about it because why else would i have put myself through that?

[@Tensolin01]

I did the FFX lightning dodge thing to get the ultimate weapon trophy. I gave up early on 9s jump rope trophy. F that.

[@generalyousif3640]

That feeling when you are one trophy away from the platinum but the game servers go down :/ Looking at you Knockout city: I got the ps4 version, but the ps5 was far far harder because of the dlc maps and new balls, making the random based trophy even harder

[@PlayStationAccess]

Ouch!

[@esteban280889]

still can't believe the switch is stuck in the past and doesnt have them. I love chasing trophies but usually only easy to medium ones. Not often I go after super hard ones.

[@Count_Jacula]

I have Embrace the Void in Hollow Knight honeslty one of the most fufilled trophies ive ever got as well as the platinum.

[@RazeedPip]

Loving hollow knight as much as I do, it hurts knowing I’m simply not good enough for the plat. Makes me think “how can I say it’s one of my favourite games if I don’t have it”.

[@sibsama]

There is a simple Invincibility Glitch using the Crystal Dash and Dream Gate portal if you wanna get that Plat.

[@RD_Clarke]

This FF felt very old-school & very very welcome! A crackin return of the Friday Feature 💙 edit: ALEXXXX 💙💙💙

[@Ivotas]

Wow, finally Alex appears in one of the videos. Nice! Also as far as the tropic is concerned, getting 'My Kung-Fu is Strong' is actually quite easy. After failing for years the only thing that was needed was for the PS4 to release. That way I could have MK9 running on my PS3 in the background accumulating hours with my characters while playing other games on the PS4. The only trophy where you have to play two different consoles at the same time. ;)

[@dmacks]

Mm-mmm. That sweet Hollow Knight platinum i got by using the glitch. Sweet success.

[@joshwilliams43]

I've done hail to the king ! It was mind numbing

[@DudeinGA]

So glad to see a trophy Friday Feature! (All of the ones mention hurt my thumbs and brain to think about). Supposedly, prior to the most recent update to Remote Play, you could do Hail To The King trophy in Final Fantasy IX using a laptop and a script running through remote play to autojump. Sadly, the update to Remote Play broke this unless there's a workaround. Let's not forget Valor Grand Cross in Killzone 2, Warhawk Award/Executive Honor/General in Warhawk, and Triumvirate / Overseer / Unstoppable in Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception (PS3 Version). All of those are no longer obtainable and are borderline impossible.

[@KingSnickSnack]

Thx god I already got Hail to the King then. If they ever do a ff9 remake I pray to the gods this is not in it

[@CrazeeAdam]

And so i've arrived at the final Friday Feature. Just finished another watch of every single one. Maybe this list will grow by the time i rewatch them all again!

[@jackusmaracus]

I am SO here for Ash’s maths tangent!

[@83DragonWolf]

Loved every second. Thank you!

[@TomTudusHughes]

Hail to the king was the bane of my life

[@Jonathon_Hennessey]

Alien Isolation has a trophy called one shot which requires beating the entirety of the game without dying. Doing it is easier said than done as the xenomorph is very unpredictable and in some of the final chapters two xenomorphs show up at the same time.

The Working Joes do their best to turn Amanda into a lifeless dummy too.

[@cq4330]

it's been too long since I last saw '7' in the video title 😫 currently binge-rewatching the Friday Features in release order

[@platinum_vault]

This year I challenged myself a bit more than usual and I reached my highest peak yet: Mein Leben in Wolfenstein 2. What seemed impossible at first, has resulted in sweet success and two wonderful videos. My journey and a guide for noobs with bad aim (like myself). Now, Tetris Effect and Super Meat Boy are the highest on my «want to, but probably never will unlock». But who knows.

[@incognitod8444]

That's impressive. I wouldn't even attempt that, and I have some hard platinums. (I have all Wolf 2 trophies except for Mein Leben)

[@TigerTailsTV]

Defeating Super Shredder without getting hit is the one trophy between me and the TMNT: Shredder's Revenge Platinum. Even on Easy he still manages to sneak a couple of hits in. One day, one day I'll do it. Or bribe someone else into do it. One of the two.

[@knight-mares]

I have Hollow Knight, Ash. Equip your fragile charms and practice bosses individually until you master them and commit to the Pantheon run. It is very doable, I believe you can do it.

[@robertspinks212]

I actually have the Crash 4 platinum. Surprised I got something on this list as I usually bail on hard games lol

[@James-gj8rn]

Wow what a throwback this is, i'm kinda nostalgic :)

[@djdannyp86]

My white whale trophy is from FIFA 15. You had to score a goal with a very specific animation that it was impossible to manually trigger (would only happen at random). I've played almost 1250 hours of that game (dozens of them specifically trying to get the animation to happen) and I haven't even seen the animation, never mind scored with it. It's the only thing keeping me from the platinum. Sadly I think 'String It Together' is going to haunt me similarly for decades to come.

[@isaiahbrooke1227]

Playstation Access team you all have become a source of great fun and laughter for me and my family I thank you for all your hard work creating and allowing us to be apart of your creativity i imagine it cannot be easy but we thank you for it! Happy holiday season Cheers!

i have the tetris effect and the hollow knight plat, both were very challenging but also very fun. just to get unter the 70 seconds sprint time for 40 lines cleared it took me a full week of nonstop training. also for that tetris ultra mode i learned how to stack t-spins, which was very fun to learn and a new way of playing tetris for me. and hollow knight plat, well. its pain. but also hollow knight is a very fair game and the bossfights are 99% well telegraphed. so its doable!

[@PlayStationAccess]

Whoa, congrats!

[@KrymsunShaddoe]

I don't have any of these myself, but I do have a friend who has the platinum for Tetris Effect. He still doesn't think he's that good at Tetris. The true top players are just insane.

[@Si-Harris]

The only one I've got on that list is the sackboy one! I've managed to platinum the game, at some points in my time trying to get it, I often questioned why am I doing this? does it really matter? but then when I finally had it down after weeks if not months, it felt amazing... I'm not going back for that mortal kombat trophy though!

2:56 I think the most I ever done was 100 or so, but at least I got a cool Cactaur card for my trouble I bet NickAR could do it, he has a habit of completing the hardest platinum runs in existence

[@Vohaul86]

I tried MK9 shenannigans with leaving the game on while sleeping (and using rubber bands on the controller to move the character while I was away etc.), but eventually just gave up... But I have to say that Bayonetta was probably my favorite game to platinum (as well as my first): there was quite reasonable requirements for platinum, but there were still hidden bosses and challenge missions outside of trophy requirements. I finished those also despite not acquiring any trophies as the game was just so blast to play.

I MAY have cheated with Hail to the King (I could never get it legitimately!). The worst actual trophy in FF9 is Bloodlust though, you have to kill 10,000 enemies, and bear in mind that a normal run-through of the game including all side quests probably nets you about 2000 :(

[@blueeyedtech1234]

This is why I just like playing the game and don’t stress about getting trophies. It’s not worth losing my sanity 🤪
