I don't particularly care for the insta-Platinum between Vita/PS3. It kind of ruins the purpose of trophy hunting for me. Final Fantasy XIV is coming up so i'll probably be on trophy hiatus for awhile again. I still have so many games to play and platinum. ; ;

Just bought Tales of Xillia as well, and I doubt i'll get too it for months.

Luckily, insta-Plats seem to be a mistake and a thing of the past. I read somewhere that it was implemented to reward early Vita adopters. lol. However to my knowledge every game since March 2013 has implemented either a shared trophy list between Vita/PS3 or a completely seperate one that you have to play twice. So I doubt we'll see this anymore and I'm glad they did away with it because it devalues trophy lists.

Thankfully there are only a small handfull of games that got away with the double platinum like MGS Vita Collection, Sly Cooper Thieves in Time, Sound Shapes, and Motorstorm RC. Might be one more. I think Ratchet & Clank Full Frontal Assault was supposed to originally have an insta-plat, but it came out with a shared list.

I've made use of the double plat in sound shapes and just played sly cooper thieves in time so I won't feel like I earned 100 platinum trophies now until I reach 102.
