8:28 Fun fact: If you have a second player that is decent, these missions are a breeze since the requirement doesn't change depending on how many players are, and the player's scores are combined. 11:47 Also, in these gates, the closer you are to the pole (but not touching it) will give you a higher score. 15:06 Flicking the right stick either forward or backward will make your car flip to either left or right while drifting in the air. 18:43 Tip: Focus more on sending items to your teammates, unless everyone already has one or you want to use one immediately. It gives them a better chance at winning.
It didn't sell well because it came out around the time crash team racing did, and crash was still popping due to the well recieved n sane trilogy. Plus mario kart 8 was still making the rounds, so a new sonic racing game didn't stand a chance.
I actually have every trophy in this game... except one. That one? Beating a friend's leaderboard time. Now, that might not sound so bad, right? Except for the _tiny_ problem of _not having friends to beat!_ And even if I could get friends, who knows if they've even _done_ any races in Time Trial! I really hate these types of achievements, where it has nothing to do with the _game's_ challenge at all. Completely defeats the purpose!
On Rayaman legends i had the same problem, what i do was i created 2 other accounts on my Playstation, befriended them, and do shitty scores and beat them in my main account and got that trophy. Maybe this can work in this game as well.
best character to play as in this game was rouge, shes just as fast as the speedster styles in the game plus with her technical type you can off-road and do shortcuts without any slowdown penalties which helps a lot
When i was helping my friend trying to platinum this game we found it considerably easier to do certain events and races in share play co-op. I did it solo and had to put up with terrible AI teamates.
When I see the 4/10 my eyes lit up and my heart started pounding but after watching this I can see that 4 rating is a damn lie and you exposed it! Awesome video my dude keep smashing it loved the editing and the quality of each video improves going places man👏🏻🎉
When I say the difficulty and all the ultra rares, my eyes glazed over but I should have known that it would never be that easy haha. Thanks leechy lad
Platinuming Sonic Transformed and the one before it,the bonus challenges I don't mind as they're about as hard as the other games. But those damn GP's on story mode made me say I don't care about platinuming the entire racing trilogy anymore lol. I didn't mind losing if I'm not good enough but losing because the AI just won't keep up made me say I'm done lol. It's maybe like 6-8 in difficulty depending on luck with AI
I'm so happy to see someone else going through this pain, as a huge Sonic fan since 3 years old. For a platinum trophy, this game was really hard for me (especially the pole missions) ,but I managed to do it. This was a platinum I was so proud of. my first ever 0.1 platinum, congrats bro. 😎👊
This is the first video of yours that I’ve watched, and you saying “I got a trophy in the first two minutes and now we HAVE to get the platinum😐” is so relatable
Congrats on the platinum in team sonic racing Lewis we both got this plat on the same day 1st of March your a legend can't wait to see more of your amazing platinum videos in the future
Congrats, on the Plat. After watching your video I don't really see myself earning this Plat, but I applaud you for earning it. Small tidbit: Rogue is actually pronounced like "Ru-gue" instead of like the X-Men's Rogue. But anyway, I look forward to more of your videos @PlatinumBro!
I didn't realise it was so rare. I did it on the Switch but there's no achievement system so...oh well. I thought maybe it would be beating the staff ghosts, they're unusually difficult and I wonder how many people beat them.
Literally just checked the channel this morning to see if you had a new vid out. This one should hold me off for a while now. Thanks and congrats on the plat Lewis!
I platinumed TSR when it came to PS+ last year and let me tell ya, this was one frustrating game! I thought the guide estimates for difficulty/time were WAY off for this one. Respect to all y’all who shaved years off your life getting this ultra rare platinum. 😆
I had Platinumed this last summer and don't remember it being that bad, however I was just coming off Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed which is, to date, the hardest Platinum I have. The Expert Ghosts beaten on Time Trial is insanely difficult.
@@PlatinumBro I remember some parts being difficult, however if you ever get around to playing Transformed (which I think is the best in the series only slightly ahead of the first game which is Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing), you'll see where the actual pain is with the Time Trials. 20 tracks, 20 expert Ghosts, and three of the 20 tracks are absolute nightmares. One track took me over 6 hours to beat. Love your channel, you have a lot of determination man. Subscribed!
@@PlatinumBro It is! Albeit PS3. I've been collecting Platinum's on my PS3 more than I have on my PS4 and PS5. They're a lot of fun. No worries! Always happy to support a great British channel!
@@PlatinumBro Its the not challenge that i gave up nor the time needed, (I somehow did Hollow Knight) but its so repitiive (and a bit boring to play) just beat it much less to plat it. If i feel like it doesn't desevere my time, then i won't plat it. (Though still a Well done man, I'll never get it)
For some reason the "A Friend in Speed is a Friend Indeed" Achievement took way too long to get for me. And all it took was an alt friend request your main, have the alt do a trial, then hope that the game updates the scoreboard to include your "friend's" trial, finally beat your alt to get the achievement. I hated this achievement.
When this game originally came out I had a hard time getting some of the trophies, but i came back to it a few years later and got it done in a couple days somehow.
Bro… I got this platinum trophy, this has got to be the hardest platinum I’ve gotten thus far. It’s mainly because some trophies require pure luck and timing, and I just so happen to be there at the right moment. This requires a lot of patience in order to platinum, I could NEVER do that again lol
I feel the pain. Currently sitting at 61%. Mostly got star trophies left to earn. Although I’ve been making sure to grab all stars and keys as I go so I can focus on pure racing for hard and expert.
Nicely done, sah! Now imagine you've done all but a few of the ring levels and hard grandprixs and someone pulls the power on your console whilst it's in rest mode wiping your save file.... yeah. Good times. *happened to a friend not me but oooooo the anger.
Wait wth? I had no idea this plat was rare. I was working towards this plat since it came out, up until I was last able to play on my console (a few years ago)
I did this game last year and man was it one of the most infuriating platinums I have ever gone for. I felt like I almost went insane at some point but it was so satisfying when that platinum finally popped
I got this platinum earlier this year and I’m surprised that more people don’t have this platinum as I didn’t find it too difficult. I mean there were times where the AI let me down but other than that it was pretty straightforward for me, although I do have a lot of experience from racing games prior to this.
Godspeed. I was on the platinum path, but some of them are just not worth it. The toughest platinum for my child self was beating the bonus robot Nancy in Tekken 6.
@@PlatinumBro I don't know if you knew this, but there's a way to cheat the Platinum Trophies for the HD ports of Jak & Daxter. But if you do it on the PS4 ports, a glitch will prevent the one on Jak 3 from triggering, or at least it did that for me.
ive a hint for ya.... you can repeatably send and ask for items so ya can charge up the team meter kinda quickly oh and btw technique charicters get access to nearly the full track ok one last bit ya can change up your cart during the playthrough and that should help you alot more with completing these challenges
I can say I platinum this game and it was indeed a challenge but I’m glad I finally did it. The biggest hurdle I had was the online ghost thing but I finally got it cause that was the last one I was missing.
know i'm really late and you probably never want to play this again, but here's a few tips. sending items to your teammates whenever you get them unless you really need them can help them gain places. postponing the team ultimate as long as you can is a good strategy. and sending an item, then immediately asking for it back is great to grind ultimate meter. flicking the stick left or right while jumping moves you left or right. customized cars WILL be used by your teammates, if you customize sonic he'll have that car IIRC, the base cars aren't that good so customizing is key to placing high. and using the slowest team member is great because that means the ai gets the fast easy to use cars which helps. i still regularly play this game and the ai rarely screws me over this way. THOSE DRIFTING CHALLENGES SUCK THOUGH
I'm not sure if this has been said before, but another reason so little people have trophies is this game, is because it was on PS Plus last March, and I think it was on PS Now before Sega took off the Sonic games on PS Now, so a bunch of people just downloaded the game, and played it a little bit, or just didn't play it at all I've been playing the game for a year every now and then and I'm still missing 1 trophy, cuz I don't feel like it
I found the best way to win in this game is to spam item boxes to teammates, builds up the star meter super quick and makes your AI teammates catch up better
Awesome video. The lengths this chad will go to for an ultra rare 😂 Definitely not a 4/10. Well done for pushing through the pain and landing another impressive plat.
@@PlatinumBro No worries, dude! I should note though, a small number of tracks will be copyrighted so like Sonic Movie stuff, anything from Bently Jones, Vandiaize by One Ok Rock and possibly anything where Mario and Sonic crossed over in the Olympics.
For any newcomers trying to platinum this game: Get a friend. They don't need to own the game, just have SOMEONE to help you. Do share play if you're on PSN, or whatever the alternative your version has, and do coop there. The game is balanced around you having friends. This is critical especially in bonus missions. In ring challenge missions, the rings are shared, so at first having MP looks harmful. But... They respawn. So have one player go first, then the second go when the rings start to spawn in, and you're basically cutting down the mission by half the work doing it like that. These brutal requirements become so chill when played with coop. It's easier to get 3 people platinumed than to get one person platinuming the whole game themselves
I just got the platinum for this game, thanks to your video! I had the game downloaded when it was free on ps plus, but never played it. But this video made the game seem fun so I tried it and got the plat. I'd actually agree with 4/10 - didn't seem that bad to me.
Nice job 👏 a lot of psnprofile comments also said the difficulty is definitely higher than 4! Hope to plat this myself someday, working on Gran Turismo 7 now which will be my 1st racing plat 🏁 🚘 🏆
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the sun and welcome to the channel! If you liked this, I recommend my Chivalry 2 or Crysis video. They are my two favourite videos ❤️
I wonder if this is as hard as that one specific mission in Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing on Wii where for some reason...they nerfed how many rings appeared on that version but kept the strict time limit. ☠️
The limited ring count is possibly for performance reason. You'd see this often on Warrior games for Nintendo consoles, with P5Strikers being the least impacted since it's going for more a ARPG approach.
i remember getting 100% on Sonic and SEGA all stars racing transformed on Xbox 360. and i thought that was hard. one the last trophies in that game was to cross the finish line in 1st place, while driving backwards over the line. quite literally had to set up a multi-lap race in solo mode with easy bots to get this achievement.
@@PlatinumBro wait, i think it was the sonic and SEGA game before that. i remember getting the achievement with "Billy Hatcher", and hes not in Transformed. but yeah. that was still a very funny achievement.
@@PlatinumBro I just finished the Platinum! It was a pretty enjoyable experience, a little grindy but overall not terrible. I really liked the fact that for most of the hard and expert stages you didn't necessarily have to win to pass the level, just needed to come in third most of the time.
I would say, you plan is to try and get star power in the first lap (so you can build it up again for the final stretch), if you fail to do this, then yeah wait until the end
Look up the trophies for Sonic Forces. It's way worse than anything in this game, it's genuinely painful. The game only has a couple of hours of content, but somehow managed to stretch it out for days.
I went for the platinum last year when the game was free on PS Plus, and it was rather just either poor AI or straight up RNG form the power ups (the Amy team is the worst case of the RNG) It sometimes frustrated me to the point I just got off the game and played Overwatch 1 (when the game was still a thing till Blizzard killed it for the sequel and killed off the origina). But overall, I felt I was competent with Kart racers, so it was semi-doable for me, but it's no 4/10
Team Sonic racing was one of the games I happened to play during lockdown during the year we don't speak of for mental sake. I platinumed it immediately because I thought it was fun, and it is! Is it a rewarding platinum? Nope. But I thought the game was fun to play and challenging to master, so once I got into the swing of things, I was clearing out all of the stars and keys in the adventure mode in no time. The only real downside to the platinuming the game were the online trophies. Nobody should have to tell you that SEGA dropped this game faster than they drop their IPs. I remember having to spend two hours just looking for an online room because I didn't have any friends that owned the game.
Feels like they totally screwed the game design just by the single decision of making it so that you NEED your team to do well regardless of how well you do. Nice in theory, in practice it just means the game decides when you win and when you don't instead of it being down to your skill. It doesn't help that the game doesn't handle as well as the two Sonic All-Stars racing games.
i get why they did it but the team mate AI needed so much work, they had the ability to make good AI as they do it with the opponents but for some reason just dropped the ball with the team mates
Can you pin me for no reason?
Yes daddy
🤨 caught in 4k
It Wouldn’t Be Fair Race Now Would It.

Bruh I never thought he would ACTUALLY pin me
8:28 Fun fact: If you have a second player that is decent, these missions are a breeze since the requirement doesn't change depending on how many players are, and the player's scores are combined.
11:47 Also, in these gates, the closer you are to the pole (but not touching it) will give you a higher score.

solid tips! I hope it helps some future players
I think this is such an underated game, I think plat is harder than the guide rating but not so hard that it kills the fun, congrats on plat 🙌
I did really enjoy it tbf. The difficulty felt right for a racing game tbf
Love this game. Wish there was more people online so I can have an actual race tho.
It didn't sell well because it came out around the time crash team racing did, and crash was still popping due to the well recieved n sane trilogy. Plus mario kart 8 was still making the rounds, so a new sonic racing game didn't stand a chance.
Its a great game, but the one before it was better in every way which is why it got low reviews

Yeah, the online trophies are super annoying, I mean what if the servers go offline, it makes the trophies impossible
Wouldn’t the simple solution be to create an alt account on the same system?
best character to play as in this game was rouge, shes just as fast as the speedster styles in the game plus with her technical type you can off-road and do shortcuts without any slowdown penalties which helps a lot
Well I missed a trick there hahaha
I think that only is good in solo mode. Team mode your path being off-road means your teammates have a harder time catching up.
When i was helping my friend trying to platinum this game we found it considerably easier to do certain events and races in share play co-op.
I did it solo and had to put up with terrible AI teamates.

Star meter can be charged by giving you teammates an item using triangle
it can indeed, best way to win races tbf
know i'm really late and you probably never want to play this again, but here's a few tips.
sending items to your teammates whenever you get them unless you really need them can help them gain places.
postponing the team ultimate as long as you can is a good strategy.
and sending an item, then immediately asking for it back is great to grind ultimate meter.
flicking the stick left or right while jumping moves you left or right.
customized cars WILL be used by your teammates, if you customize sonic he'll have that car IIRC, the base cars aren't that good so customizing is key to placing high.
and using the slowest team member is great because that means the ai gets the fast easy to use cars which helps.
i still regularly play this game and the ai rarely screws me over this way.
THOSE DRIFTING CHALLENGES SUCK THOUGH
Thanks for sharing buddy :) it might save someone from our pain
I'm not sure if this has been said before, but another reason so little people have trophies is this game, is because it was on PS Plus last March, and I think it was on PS Now before Sega took off the Sonic games on PS Now, so a bunch of people just downloaded the game, and played it a little bit, or just didn't play it at all

Yeah that makes total sense matey.
Omg knuckles is the worst man
Not long ago I got the platinum myself on this congrats on earning it I know the pain and struggles you went though 😅
Well done lad! We have shared trauma ❤️
@@PlatinumBro haha that we do I’m sure there’s others in common that we have done 😅
I found the best way to win in this game is to spam item boxes to teammates, builds up the star meter super quick and makes your AI teammates catch up better
100% man
Awesome video. The lengths this chad will go to for an ultra rare 😂 Definitely not a 4/10. Well done for pushing through the pain and landing another impressive plat.
Thanks man! Oh Goopy Baby I will do anything for those ultra rares. Anything.
Great Video! And congrats! 👏
Gotta love those Ultra Rare Trophies! 👌
Thanks! 😁 I need more ultra rare trophies hahaha
@@PlatinumBro same here! Have 82, 6 being platinums! Hope to get more this year. Already got 2
You can play the music, SEGA allows TH-camrs to play their music in videos.
no way! I know for future thanks man
@@PlatinumBro No worries, dude! I should note though, a small number of tracks will be copyrighted so like Sonic Movie stuff, anything from Bently Jones, Vandiaize by One Ok Rock and possibly anything where Mario and Sonic crossed over in the Olympics.
I despise online trophies I'd give them cancer if I had the ability
dam son hahaha
I remember playing sonic team racing on ps now, and kinda liking it, but I hated those dang ring missions
they were awful man
I shouldnt have clicked on this video.
This was one of the most disheartening and mind breaking platinums I've ever went for.
hahaha so sorry for the PTSD bro
For any newcomers trying to platinum this game:
Get a friend. They don't need to own the game, just have SOMEONE to help you. Do share play if you're on PSN, or whatever the alternative your version has, and do coop there. The game is balanced around you having friends.
This is critical especially in bonus missions. In ring challenge missions, the rings are shared, so at first having MP looks harmful. But... They respawn. So have one player go first, then the second go when the rings start to spawn in, and you're basically cutting down the mission by half the work doing it like that. These brutal requirements become so chill when played with coop. It's easier to get 3 people platinumed than to get one person platinuming the whole game themselves
solid advice here buddy
I would honestly recommend the Sonic Frontiers platinum trophy, although it’s not exactly the shortest game. I just think it’s a lot of fun.
I’m going to play it this yeah :)
That platinum is very easy tbf
@@Sanity98 looks like a lot of fun too
Solid work mate!!! Proved that you are a boss for smashing out this game 💪😎🤘🔥
Thanks bro! This one was a struggle haha
I just got the platinum for this game, thanks to your video!
I had the game downloaded when it was free on ps plus, but never played it. But this video made the game seem fun so I tried it and got the plat.
I'd actually agree with 4/10 - didn't seem that bad to me.
Oh that’s awesome well done Daniel!
Nice job 👏 a lot of psnprofile comments also said the difficulty is definitely higher than 4! Hope to plat this myself someday, working on Gran Turismo 7 now which will be my 1st racing plat 🏁 🚘 🏆
Thanks! Yeah it’s definitely a 6/10! Good luck with GT7 bro
This Game looks pretty Good i really need to try this one out Great Video btw 🔥 and Congratulations for the Platinum mate 💪🏾🥳
I enjoyed it for most of the time buddy!
And why thank you
Why is it you can't play the audio because of copyright, but you CAN play the video? 🤔
Because companies are really strict with music copyright, not really sure why it’s so different but here we are
13:48 Where did you get this image? I need it for...research purposes.
Kendra Lust - be warned. Searching her name on google is NSFW 😂
@@PlatinumBro You are a scholar and a gentleman. I salute you!
I enjoyed this game. I think I'm only missing the 4 player co-op trophy as I don't have the controllers
yeah it's a decent game, yeah thankfully i had 4 controllers, glad I kept my ps4 controlelrs ha
i enjoyed this, the editing and everything! Subbed and can't wait for more :D
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the sun and welcome to the channel!
If you liked this, I recommend my Chivalry 2 or Crysis video. They are my two favourite videos ❤️
Great video, bro! I know how annoying this one was, so I respect it. Keep up the amazing work. 💪🏻🏆
Appreciate it! Glad you can relate to my pain hahaha
@@PlatinumBro Haha! The RNG was real! I still hear myself screaming at Knuckles and Tails while trying to sleep at night. 🙈
The Ring Challenges are easy with tails. He has the a long car so you can get more rings in a drift
Makes sense
I wonder if this is as hard as that one specific mission in Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing on Wii where for some reason...they nerfed how many rings appeared on that version but kept the strict time limit. ☠️
Not sure buddy but it’s probably not as hard as that tbf ha
The limited ring count is possibly for performance reason. You'd see this often on Warrior games for Nintendo consoles, with P5Strikers being the least impacted since it's going for more a ARPG approach.
On expert difficulty, do you just have to do the grand prix and races or do you have to do the ring challenges and other challenges aswell
you have to do the grand prix as well
What annoys me a bit about this game is that it was never updated for 4K. I still don’t understand why the Xbox One X got the 4K visuals.
Oh yeah it looks like a toilet
By the way. Sonic music has no copyright. On your videos you will see it’s claimed but it says it has no affect on your video
Thanks for letting me know! If they claim it, do they claim the income the video generates though?
@@PlatinumBro no, they only generate income from music service streams and of course, SEGA paying them
@@KezKaz thanks for clarifying x
@@PlatinumBro no problem
I need a friend to help me with the time trial trophy. Everything else I got already.
You can just make a second account on your PlayStation :)
@@PlatinumBro OH MY GOD I ALREADY HAD ONE BUT NEVER BOTHERED! I am a very big dumb.
@@TerrorKidd2006 hahhaahhaahha
@@PlatinumBro Just did it, thanks!
i remember getting 100% on Sonic and SEGA all stars racing transformed on Xbox 360. and i thought that was hard.
one the last trophies in that game was to cross the finish line in 1st place, while driving backwards over the line. quite literally had to set up a multi-lap race in solo mode with easy bots to get this achievement.
Hahahah that achievement is ridic but also very funny
@@PlatinumBro wait, i think it was the sonic and SEGA game before that. i remember getting the achievement with "Billy Hatcher", and hes not in Transformed. but yeah. that was still a very funny achievement.
I need help for this one trophy A friend in speed is a friend indeed.
I’m hope you find someone buddy
You can play the song. SEGA never sends copyright strikes out.
Good to know for future!
I'm going for this one right now actually, or at least sometime this year!
Good luck!
@@PlatinumBro I just finished the Platinum!
It was a pretty enjoyable experience, a little grindy but overall not terrible. I really liked the fact that for most of the hard and expert stages you didn't necessarily have to win to pass the level, just needed to come in third most of the time.
@@NeoCinnamon well done! You should be proud!!!
15:50 is definitely relatable 😂
I’m glad you can relate hahaha
So is the strat to throw the first half of the race and then use your star power to win last minute?
I would say, you plan is to try and get star power in the first lap (so you can build it up again for the final stretch), if you fail to do this, then yeah wait until the end
Look up the trophies for Sonic Forces. It's way worse than anything in this game, it's genuinely painful.
The game only has a couple of hours of content, but somehow managed to stretch it out for days.
oh you're really selling it to me hahahahah next platinum for us both yeah?
This video inspired me to get this game and try to get Platinum
omg that is incredible! good luck
I got the platinum trophy and I must say it was frustrating to say the least.
so god dam annoying
your allowed to use the intro theme btw and also tsr came out in 2019
Wasted oppurtunity then haha
Sonic has no copyright issues
thanks for letting me know
I didn't see why it was so rare when I got it. Idk.
I think PS plus played a big role in its rarity
I went for the platinum last year when the game was free on PS Plus, and it was rather just either poor AI or straight up RNG form the power ups (the Amy team is the worst case of the RNG) It sometimes frustrated me to the point I just got off the game and played Overwatch 1 (when the game was still a thing till Blizzard killed it for the sequel and killed off the origina). But overall, I felt I was competent with Kart racers, so it was semi-doable for me, but it's no 4/10
Yeah I had the same struggles as I hope the video highlighted ha
I think a 6/10 is a reasonable difficulty for the game
what should the difficulty rating actually be you think?
6/10 I would say unless you’re good at racing games, then a 5/10 😇
Team Sonic racing was one of the games I happened to play during lockdown during the year we don't speak of for mental sake. I platinumed it immediately because I thought it was fun, and it is! Is it a rewarding platinum? Nope. But I thought the game was fun to play and challenging to master, so once I got into the swing of things, I was clearing out all of the stars and keys in the adventure mode in no time. The only real downside to the platinuming the game were the online trophies. Nobody should have to tell you that SEGA dropped this game faster than they drop their IPs. I remember having to spend two hours just looking for an online room because I didn't have any friends that owned the game.
I really enjoyed it too, I feel your pain with the online, thankfully I was able to boost it
Now I don’t wanna go back and try finish this game 🤣🤣
Hahahahahaha not sure I can recommend it x
Feels like they totally screwed the game design just by the single decision of making it so that you NEED your team to do well regardless of how well you do. Nice in theory, in practice it just means the game decides when you win and when you don't instead of it being down to your skill. It doesn't help that the game doesn't handle as well as the two Sonic All-Stars racing games.
i get why they did it but the team mate AI needed so much work, they had the ability to make good AI as they do it with the opponents but for some reason just dropped the ball with the team mates
i didn't get the platinum because some of the achievements were buggued and not obtainable at the time. Mostly the Time Attack vs friends success. :v
no way that is such a gutter man
Yes,
Sonic Team Racing.
Because that is what TSR is!
it's a decent game
