- Hello and welcome to my challenge for 2024 and my biggest challenge to date:
The Platinum Project PlayStation 2
My journey to try and find all 256 Platinum Games released for the PlayStation 2 in the Pal region.
But with a twist, I am trying to find all 256 of these games before the end of 2024, 256 games, 365 days, let the games begin!
So what are the rules for this challenge? That’s easy, there is no rules! I will do anything to find these 256 games and complete the Platinum Project PlayStation 2.
You may have noticed it’s been just over a month since the last episode and that’s for a good reason, I may be starting to lose hope!
But fear not the hunt continues, this time we’re hitting up THREE CEX stores, as well as charity shops, my local carboot and TWO independent gaming stores Game Cave in Dereham and Last Level Games right here in the fine city of Norwich, check them out here:

So glad I was able to help you tick two games off the list. I'm still on the look out and anymore I discover out in the wild I will certainly send your way. 👍
Thanks mate and these two where very much appreciated 👍
December birthdays 🔥
I'm surprised FIFA 14 has a Platinum version. That was one of the very last games released for PS2. Very realistic chance you have one of the last discs printed.
Yeah double present for birthday and Christmas lol.
Yes it’s crazy that FIFA 14 is even on the PS2 let alone the platinum version, just goes to show how long a life cycle the console had and explains why it’s so hard to find!
Got this in the bag! This year too I reckon!
Thanks mate let’s hope so and I’d love to finish the PS1 set also lol, least I have one less to find for that now!
fifa 14 is still crazy af. the second last pal game for the console
blue label was released two months before the ps4 hit stores, ps3 was already seven years old. but still enough people bought a copy to get past the platinum hurdle 🤯
It’s truly mad isn’t it! It just goes to show the popularity of the PS2 and just how many people bought it!
Another great episode Dan, I have been looking forward to it after a short break, this addition has been quite the whirlwind. Your chipping away at the games so that's good. Just to let you know (not sure if I mentioned this to you late last year), Wipeout 3 (stylised as Wip3Out) has had a PlayStation Platinum release. I know this as I have it.
What really!
Would you be able to send me a picture at all?
Thanks it’s been a funny month but seems like things are back on track!
@@DanTheGamesMan I will see what I can do Dan. I will need to find it in the attic, I shall send it through when I find it.
@@thekingofoldskool2 thanks mate be great to see it and then eventually find it!
Not even half way through the year and only 66 left to go 🎉 you got this. Also that Dino Crisis 2 for PS1 has some beautiful artwork 🤣🤣
Yeah I can’t believe how many I’ve managed to find already!
Yeah I was blown away by the artwork on Dino Crisis 2 so beautiful lol
Never give up, you will fund what you need out in the wild
I’m sure I will and I have some very exciting places to hunt lined up in the future
Your smashing it mate. I'm at 158 PS2 platinum games and it's getting so difficult to find them out in the wild. Ebay has been my main source at the moment and I've been trying to finish sub sets, just finished the wrestling games for the PS2 platinum, some of which came from overseas (quite cheap) Fifa's are getting difficult to find.
Good luck, keep it up, your smashing it pal!
Thanks mate sounds like you’re doing well also! I’m glad I’m not the only one finding it hard to find them in the wild lol.
I think I need one wrestling game and it’s a subset I very much also want to finish!
Good luck with your hunt!
Emotional rollercoaster. Have enjoyed watching you collect these platinums for ps1 and 2 and also Retro Ghetto for ps3 and 4 essentials. Keep meaning yo check that store in Dereham as I live not far away in Hellesdon
Thanks it’s been a rollercoaster of a month! But glad to be back on track now!
There’s a lot of playstation collecting at the moment and I love it!
Game Cave is well worth checking out!
I enjoyed Dans video series but can’t get into Retro Ghetto, find him very arrogant and it’s over produced. Those Camera cuts are really irritating
I had the wipe out 3 and Dino crisis 2 games on platinum a long time ago I sold them on ebay when I got rid of my playstation games. I will keep my eye open for your remaining games when I'm out and about 😊 seen air combat on ebay not sure if you are thinking of that instead of ace combat (you never know)
Yeah I think Ace Combat and Air Combat get confused on lists.
It’s good to know you had those two games on platinum which means they do exist lol.
@@DanTheGamesMan they do m8
@@stevirobbo hopefully I can find then one day 🤞
just like fifa 06 u see those harry potter games only in platinum here, but in dutch.
It’s so strange how many different platinum variants there are for specific countries, makes my life so much harder lol
Great video dan , ur not doing to bad slowly knockin all them games off the list. Just wondering im growing my beard how long did it take you to get too that length.
Thanks and I think I forget sometimes how many I’ve already managed to find.
I’ve probably been growing my beard for around 10 years not but sadly this seems to be the max length
Just a blip, there out there, I'm sure will get there
Thank you with everyone’s support I’m sure I will!
Thought you'd appreciate the pink tissue paper 😂
Thanks for the Instagram highlight ❤
Thanks I really did and again thanks for helping with the PPP!
There are a lot more platinums than 256 for ps2, so good luck with the search
You may be right as someone has shared a different list with me recently
@@DanTheGamesMan i'm trying to complete the platinum set myself after a long break after completing the full pal set in 2016 and need around 40 i think. Researched the set with evident (covers and sells online) to get the final list. On the top of my head i think there are 274 platinums.
hahah... nooooo you don´t miss the frontcover of the game!
:D :D :D
you should try to pull down the painted dino crisis Cover from the "original" Cover behind!
;)
have fun with it.
The main thing for me is at least knowing that it does exist now!
That Dino Crisis cover did make me laugh lol
Can't believe FIFA 14 even exists for the PS2 especially so long into the PS3 lifecycle
It’s crazy isn’t it! The PS2 had an amazingly long life span!
I have a spare copy of command and conquer red alert platinum if you still need it.
I have that one but thank you.
It was Command and Conquer Retaliation which I never found a platinum copy of sadly
@@DanTheGamesMan not a problem, keep going with the excellent content.
@@Northeastretrodad thank you I will and thanks for watching!
That’s alot of fuel for little reward man gutted for you
It’s ok we did manage to find some non PS2 games, including the 50% off sale at GAME and the 3 CEX stores where very good, but that’s a tale for another time….
Fingers crossed Episode 9 turns the tide! Hope the list helps. Yep, same Matt ;)
Thanks I’m sure it’ll be a real help and don’t worry things change before the end of the episode ;)
@@DanTheGamesMan Nice score on FIFA 14. One of the trickier ones to get for sure! Love to see the help from fellow viewers to keep you going too! Let me know if there are any of my doubles you need ;)
@@RetroMattUK I know I was blown away that Lucy sent it to me, it was one I was genuinely concerned about being able to find!
I wonder if Dan or ps2 many games will be the first to get all the platinums haha
He was kind enough to offer me any games he had that I didn’t last night as he knows I’m on a time frame and he isn’t in a rush. Was very good of him
@@DanTheGamesMan aww that’s nice of him
@@mattyfowler2k13 yeah a massive help having him on board and he knows more about PS2 than anyone lol
I hate it when Cex cancels your order with no explanation as to why. Pretty dodgy company in my experience.
It’s very annoying isn’t it, especially with a game I’ve never been able to find before and it’s not the first time I’ve had that specific game ordered and cancelled
@@DanTheGamesMan If it’s a rare or undervalued game I suspect the staff probably snap them up. I bought a collectors edition of one of the Batman Arkham games that comes with the replica Batarang. They have it priced at $10!! Days later I got a standard “your item is not in stock, here’s a refund” email. I contacted them to see what happened but I only got the same response - “sorry we don’t have it”. Very disappointing. They could at least tell you what happened to your order.
@@replikantofficial yeah I think that’s what’s most annoying not getting an explanation and gutted about missing that one that would have been an absolute bargain!
Dan send me list of the games I have a look around Preston going on Tuesday morning
Thanks will do! Are you on Instagram at all?
@@DanTheGamesMan I join tomorrow I have Facebook Dan so I think I have I just to find out
@@darrenhitchen247 if not you can always message via Facebook
You think ps2 platinum is hard just wait when you try to do platinum ps3 set that's even harder
Really that’s surprising I would have thought PS2 would be harder, oh dear lol….
Have you been tempted to trim your beard?
I do trim it but it always grows back twice as strong lol
Have you ever been tempted to actually grow a beard 😂
@@ED-209UHD Wish I could. Just grows all patchy and horrible.
@@jamesford2269 I had a huge beard once but it’s really bad for the skin and it needed air and product to help so yea I hear you on that man if it doesn’t work it doesn’t work!
