I'm not lying to you when I say I managed to platinum Sonic Frontiers on TWO consoles in under a week Sonic Superstars was an absolute ball ache though lmao
i just beat the main story of the game and believe it is not a skill issue to struggle on this i spent about an hour on the final boss and i still want to try and platinum it but well done on suffering through this to bring us such great content
Hey, Creator of the trophy guide here. 0:14. I hoped my guide could help you with this frustrating platinum. I picked 6 due to multiple differing opinions and 6 was the best I could come to. I enjoyed your video a lot!
I love the way people or man kids always have to leave stuck up comments saying "it's easy" after someone stated the opposite. It really fucking pisses me off so damn much 😡
Great Video. If it makes you feel better, almost everyone I’ve seen playing this game has complained that the boss fights in this game are terrible. Saw a review that said they would have given the game a 9 but then the bosses are so bad it puts the game down to a 6
I completely agree with that, whilst I wouldn’t have given the game a 9 to begin with? the bosses definitely drop it down lower. That does make me feel better however thanks mate 😊👊🏻
Great video! Also, if you think Sonic Superstars and Sonic Colors: Ultimate are bad, you should try to platinum Sonic Forces. It's like getting kicked in the testicles twenty times, then coming back for more because sunk cost fallacy says you have to.
There was a glitch in the game were you can be super sonic without losing rings. But too bad that glitch has already been patched out. And because of that glitch. It made the Fang boss fight 50% easier. Including getting all of the golden enemies And I got the Platinum after buddy Bond trophy
If there's any Sonic game I recommend getting all the achievements in, it's Sonic Mania. It doesn't have a platinum trophy, but it's still a blast (and it's cheaper)
Hey dude, I'm going to give you a 'head's up' but if you are playing Sonic Frontiers for the achievements: 1. You do not have to play the DLC content for achievements. 2. Avoid playing 'another story' on one of the islands or enable 'hard' or 'expert' difficulty. (There are no achievements for difficulty.) 3. Do NOT collect every single token on a map, as there is no achievement attached either. 4. Use Fishing Portals (This will alleviate grinding for tokens, gears, etc.) Also if you run out of purple coins, download the Monster Hunter collab update to gain access to a bonus minigame you can play within the fishing menu. You can earn fishing tokens that way too. 5. Use the Cy-loop ability for unlimited rings. There's no punishment. P.S. Good luck.
Most of the trophies are pretty easy in Frontiers, with the only troublesome one being using the phantom rush 50 times. My tip for that one is to attack the spring enemies on the second island over and over again without stomping since they are invincible.
yeah... While getting a good understanding of the physics and momentum of the classic sonic games helps alot... the bosses suck so badly. Frontiers is alot more relaxed when it comes to trophies btw.
Yeah I can imagine, I’m just not used to the controls and stuff as much anyway but it just felt so unresponsive in comparison to other games. Thanks dude 👊🏻
Yeah the classic games have a very special feel to them that takes some time to get used to and a couple replays to master. If you master it you can get some crazy stuff done and keeping the speed up becomes the main goal. Super Stars while having the feel down pretty well is not a great first impression on the gameplay due to shaky level design and awefull bosses. If you want to give the gamepaly style another shot I would fully recommend Sonic 3 and Knuckles as a go to. In my opinion the best of the classic games. Just maybe avoid playing it through Sonic Origins and instead go for Sonic 3 AIR. Just a suggestion though. If you just dont like it than thats fine too.@@JohnCalum
Sonic superstars was hell, i juat gave up on the true final boss 'cause i much can i suffer. I liked the main story's level design personally and the rest is so fuckin' bad. Btw, sonic frontiers is actually really fun and chill. And the platinum is really easy
Late to this one but yeah the platinum was infuriating for me. The game in general is good but going for 100% is just horrible. But great job getting this one! You’ll have an easier time with frontiers. 👍
instead of playing the trash side of sonic games first, i recommend sonic generations, sonic unleashed, sonic 1,2 and 3, and sonic mania plus. even tho some of them are hard the games are pretty good
I'm a big fan of Sonic, the classic games especially, and yeah, these fights are awful. I really like the actual levels, but I also know this kind of gameplay super well, so I don’t know what the newcomer experience is like at this point. You probably should've played Sonic Origins over this. Those games are definitely better, and the achievements are pretty easy. I still haven't gotten every achievement in this because that golden badnik one sounds really annoying.
I’m glad you agree, I just didn’t gel with it at all and hated playing it every time. I definitely will pickup origins at some point and I’m sure the response will be much better.
@@JohnCalum I hope it clicks with you better. Sonic 3 & Knuckles is in that collection and is probably the best game in the series, so if you don't like that; you might just not like Sonic. Origins gets some flak, but is probably still the best official way to experience those games, even if 3&K's soundtrack is worse. Also, I think these boss fights are genuinely the lowest point in the franchise, so be glad you've experienced the worst of it, I guess.
While all I'm hearing is unnecessary whining most of the time... I can agree with a few things.... fang's boss being BS for instance (I'm still stuck on it!) this IS a good game though... you're just being WAY too hard on sonic games
as a major sonic fan i will say SKILL ISSUE LMAOO but there is genuine problems with the game design, level design, and just how much BS is in the game i will give u that it's kind of a mid sonic game to me
Defo a skill issue. I'm a noob at Sonic in general, however yeah this game just frustrated the hell outta me, mainly the controls (my problem) and particularly the level design and the boss design.
If you’re gonna do a 2D sonic game, you should’ve just chosen mania the best 2D sonic game with superstars being one of the worst in my opinion I hate that game with the burning passion I had full confidence and now I’m filled with disappointment if you’re doing 2D do mania if you’re doing 3-D do frontiers adventure one, adventure 2, or generations unleashed is really good in my opinion, but it’s a long one
Mania and Origins are high on my list for doing 2D sonic, if not the ones you mentioned. The Sonic x Shadow Generations remaster might be an option too in the future
The platinum for sonic frontiers is pretty easy.
So I’ve heard 😎
Yeah, definitely should have started with a universally praised title like Mania... But good job!
Definitely, Origins is tempting aswell.
This comment reminded me that I somehow have not gotten all of Manias achievements
Despite beating the game around 20 times
I'm not lying to you when I say I managed to platinum Sonic Frontiers on TWO consoles in under a week
Sonic Superstars was an absolute ball ache though lmao
Damn it should be straight forward then!
And Sonic Superstars killed any enjoyment for Sonic for me 😂
…You should’ve played Sonic Mania instead.
I should've...
Mania doesn't have a platinum tho which sucks
i just beat the main story of the game and believe it is not a skill issue to struggle on this i spent about an hour on the final boss and i still want to try and platinum it but well done on suffering through this to bring us such great content
Glad to hear I'm not the only one mate 😂 Thank you for the kind words
I really hope you reach your like goal because that frontiers video will be great! Also great job sticking through and actually getting the platinum
Thank you mate! eventually it might get there someday 🤣 I just don’t know if I have another Sonic game in me 😅
Frontiers is a breeze to platinum, just time consuming 😂 (good game tho!)
Good to know, a fair few people have said the same thing now 🤔👀
You should platinum sonic mania if you hadn't already. Challenging, but very doable.
Its a toss up between that, origins and frontiers at the moment!
@@JohnCalum I will say sonic mania took me about 2 days to platinum. Very easy compared to sonic colors remastered for sure.
Great work John! The editing and energy has improved so much with each video! 💪
The rage was hilarious 🤣
Thank you Rob! Really glad to hear it 💪
Loved this Makes me feel so happy knowing someone else rages similar to myself 😂
Thanks man! Honestly I feel that 🤣 its nice watching someone else struggle like you do
Hey, Creator of the trophy guide here. 0:14. I hoped my guide could help you with this frustrating platinum. I picked 6 due to multiple differing opinions and 6 was the best I could come to. I enjoyed your video a lot!
Wow! Thats awesome, thanks for the guide yeah it really helped a-lot. The game sucks but a 6/10 is fair. Great work!
I absolutely applaud you for getting the plat on this game. You had the same reactions as me while going through trip's fight
Thank you man, honestly Trip's fight can do one, never again.
Im gonna ask now
Are you gonna do a rayman game?
I’d consider it! what one would you suggest?
@@JohnCalum id say rayman legends
But it does have some online friend needed trophies,
Im not sure about the other games
I love the way people or man kids always have to leave stuck up comments saying "it's easy" after someone stated the opposite. It really fucking pisses me off so damn much 😡
Damn straight, the most annoying thing

I have heard some horror stories about that game and that scares me 😭😂 Maybe for a sub milestone I’ll want my testes to feel some pain 👀
@@JohnCalumthat game is ACTUALLY bad.
Sonic forces feels like a beginners sonic game in my opinion mostly because the level design is so simple and automated for most of the game.
John Calum loves Sonic the Edgehog
Telling lies in the comments 🫣😂
@@JohnCalumThere hasn’t been one game you’ve enjoyed? Damn.
@@Kembi_Mekemo Sonic Heroes on the Gamecube when I was a kid maybe 😂
There was a glitch in the game were you can be super sonic without losing rings. But too bad that glitch has already been patched out.
And because of that glitch. It made the Fang boss fight 50% easier. Including getting all of the golden enemies
And I got the Platinum after buddy Bond trophy
Damn yeah that would have made the game incredibly easy in comparison.
Good way to end it 👊🏻
@@JohnCalum indeed
Great video! The rage is on another level on this one 😂
Honestly mate nothing has made me this angry 🤣
If you used the water ability on the press factory boss you could actually tank the crushing move
Wish I knew that sooner 🤣
Great Video Brother! I even want to platinum a Sonic Game but i probably going to start with Frontiers first 😂
Whatever you do, don’t pick this one 🤣
If there's any Sonic game I recommend getting all the achievements in, it's Sonic Mania. It doesn't have a platinum trophy, but it's still a blast (and it's cheaper)
@@JohnCalumyou really should have played frontiers as your first game
@gabrielsofta944
Interesting, that one did actually intrigue me alot. I’ll add it onto the growing list of sonic games that I might do that scare me 🤣
@@best_mate456 In hindsight I definitely should have 😭😂 I somehow keep avoiding it
FFX is going to be so much fun. I just recently got it on my steam deck and am so excited to platinum it again
a long grind but I’ve never played it before so looking forward to it
Least I used my powers, watched the cutscenes, and had fun while doing all of it! Fuck Arzest, though. Their programming can Trip into a Fang.
Good for you, I hated the bosses 🤣
Everyone does.
I feel the pain you had...this was my most satisfying platinum when it finally popped and the hell ended...
THANK YOU! Someone gets it
@@JohnCalum and what I forgot to say: congratz to the plat man!!
@@JokerXIII Thanks mate! you too
@@JohnCalum Thank you man! Keep doing the great work and have fun!
I find it stupid how they give you a Chaos Emerald that is useful for LITERALLY A SINGLE STAGE
I find the whole game stupid 😂
Great video John! You cussing out the game had me dying with all the censors 😂😂
Hahaha thanks bro, tried my best to not get demonetised 😂😂
Can confirm fruit stages DO NOT COUNT for 10000 rings!

@@JohnCalum that is one of the worst achievements.

Imo it was a fun game other than the final level and final boss
I can see that, I had more problems with some of the other bosses too but up to the final it was bearable
@@JohnCalum Fair
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this platinum sucks. Fuck this platinum.
glad we completely agree 🤝
@JohnCalum I got the Platinum yesterday, and I was raging exactly like you were, bro
As the guy who wrote the trophy guide for this game. I can agree 100%
Unless if you escape fast enough
?
@@JohnCalum mash jump button fast i figure it out while playing trip story
I did escape a few times on failed attempts. But on those clips obviously that wasn’t shown
Nice keep it up king.
Cheers bro 👊🏻
Sonic superstars was hell, i juat gave up on the true final boss 'cause i much can i suffer. I liked the main story's level design personally and the rest is so fuckin' bad.
Btw, sonic frontiers is actually really fun and chill. And the platinum is really easy
Good to know, but I’m glad we agree on the game.
this is just like watching a modern fan play a classic game 😂😂
Pretty much 😭😂
@@JohnCalum 😭😂
The thumbnail though 😂
Pretty happy with it 🤣
U should have done mania even tho it doesnt have a platnium
I think i'm gonna go for origins and then Mania 😀
Late to this one but yeah the platinum was infuriating for me. The game in general is good but going for 100% is just horrible.
But great job getting this one! You’ll have an easier time with frontiers. 👍
Completely agreed. Thanks man.
Frontiers should be more enjoyable!
W. Great video. I’m glad I’m not the only person that hates sonic and doesn’t understand the hype
Thanks man, honestly everytime I play it I just absolutely hate it 😭😂
Sounds like a skill issue smh. Although Superstars is ehh. I'd recommend Sonic Generations but I doubt u care lol.
@@CaptainF123 me personally I just don’t like sonic. There’s plenty of other games that are harder and better
@@CaptainF123 0:09
On a real though I might do the remaster of Generations
Hope you do frontiers i got the platinum for the game but this video was great and the colors one to
Almost halfway there on likes, someday I will 🤣 Thanks man! Much appreciated!
