Resistance 2

Difficulty: Resistance 2's single player trophies can finished within two play throughs and approximately 16 hours of play time making it a fairly easy platinum set. However, the multi-player trophies, while not difficult are VERY time consuming.

Are You Serious?: First of all, this game's multi-player trophy set is absolutely absurd. There is one trophy...let me repeat ONE...trophy that will take you minimally 65 hours, and that is if you are an amazing gamer. This particular trophy requires you to achieve 10,000 online kills in ranked matches. Personally, after about 15 hours of playing the game I would consistently place in the top 3 spots when matches were completed. Taking this into account it took me 70 hours to achieve this trophy.

Time: I do not recommend even attempting this platinum trophy if you are a "trophy hunter" as you can probably accumulate 4-5 platinum trophies in the time it will take you to complete Resistance 2. Look to spend a minimum of 120 hours, if you are a solid gamer, to complete this platinum trophy. To be fair, the multi-player is fairly entertaining so it is not a complete chore but still, did it need to be 10,000 kills? A serious time sink.

Tips: In co-op multi-player, once you aquire the perk which allows you to use the pulse cannon this will give you the opportunity to "steal" boss kills. From what I noticed if you score the last hit on a boss you will get that kill and the extra experience, which generally runs in the thousands. If you time it correctly you can use your pulse cannon to get that last kill and the extra experience to level your character faster. In deathmatch multi-player modes, the ripper allows for easy and fast kills in small area maps. Keep a lookout for ammo packs which supply you with extra granades (which is good for quick and multiple kills) or secondary ammo.
