For the most played game in 2012 I'd say its Mass Effect 3 unless that was the most obvious one it isn't lol.

Yeah, that's a difficult question, given the group of people here.  Are we saying most played game actually in 2012 or do the stats mix in other years?  Could be Call of Duty, could be Skyrim (since it came out late in 2011), could be something like Need for Speed Most Wanted, or a random PSN game like Sound Shapes that a bunch of people got to double up their trophies (and triple when PS4 came out).

I can't tell you how many times I stopped to take an in game picture in Uncharted, especially towards the beginning of the games. The graphics are so gorgeous.  Caution: SPOILERS ahead.

Doing something as simple as exploring Drake's house in the beginning of the game was such a fun experience. I explored every artifact and photo in the house, particularly enjoyed the wedding photos. Without memories of Uncharted 1-3 that scene wouldn't mean much, but with it, it was great to reminisce. Kinda got chills just seeing Elena waiting for Drake on the couch. Feels like I know these characters in real life and I truly care about them. Felt genuinely bad that Drake lied to Elena about the trip to Malaysia. Also did see one of the plot twists coming. Loved the Crash Bandicoot scene too.

As far as the new mechanics go I thought some of them like the pick axe added a nice dynamic to the climbing sections. Especially when you had to swing on a rope and then use the pick to grab onto a wall sliding down and hanging onto the pick in the process. Pretty damn cool. I did get a little tired of the overuse of the sliding mechanic during one level. Nate even comments how he still has gravel in his shorts after the last slide. Think the developer realized it was a bit overused there. Overall it was a good addition to Uncharted. Loved the levels with more open design (the jeep and boat) too and like how they borrowed the optional converstations from The Last of Us for extra character interactions.

Character development was excellent and I 100% agree that it was more intimate with a focus on their relationships. I thought the pacing between fire fights and puzzle solving/exploration/platforming was balanced well.  In other Uncharted's I felt like i needed more of a break from combat at times.  The only slight knock on the game I would have is that the main villain (without giving away names) wasn't the greatest of the series. Thought the supporting villian was very cool though. Loved the hand to hand combat and 2 v 1 fight there. And now that you mention it, I concur that it was missing that one huge "wow" level like the train level (U2) or plane level (U3). Maybe the closest stage was the E3 demo level. More than anything the graphics consistently wowed me.

I hope this won't be the last Uncharted game, but if it's the last starring Drake then it was a very fitting end.  If I had to rank them I might go 2, 4, 3, 1. But 2, 3, and 4 are really neck and neck. I would give them all a 10/10 for the campaign. Because Uncharted 2 was the first to add more mechanics and improve over Uncharted 1 and b/c I played the multiplayer non-stop, I'd have to rate that first. I could easily switch 3 & 4, it's a tough one.

Finally I think it was the easiest Uncharted on crushing difficulty. Played on curshing for my first playthough and the only part I struggled was the first encounter at chapter 20. That checkpoint was very hard.

Just popped the plat for Senran Kagura Bon Appetit. What a wonderfully perverse game that is. Think I will check out the other offerings now even though they are a completely different genre.

I think overall I agree with you. I played through it a second time on crushing, and I definitely feel like the pace is too slow for the first half of the game. And I also would have preferred to focus a bit more of straight forward battles and less on stealth. Because of that, I have to put 4 closely behind 2 and 3, but well ahead of 1 and GA.

What strikes me the most from your post is that you find crushing the easiest of the series. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I've platinumed 2 and 3 back in the day and the whole trilogy on PS4 again, and I thought this one has the most unfair crazy encounters of the series. Especially the open areas in which you first try to stealth (which is impossible) and then get spotted and guys come from all 360° and can get you killed in 2 seconds.

The difficulty was more or less ok until chapter 13. The encounter which was shown at the PSX 2014 was impossible for me. I tried more than an hour until I gave up and had to spawn me some good weapons and infinite ammo.

From that point shit went really crazy, I don't even know how I would've beaten that without cheating me the best weapons.

Hats off to you if you did it legit, but it's definitely the most crushing difficulty of the series imo

Ranking:
Trophy league members are ranked in the trophy leaderboard based on a trophy points system. Under the points system, each trophy type is worth a certain number of points. Here’s the breakdown:

    * bronze trophies = 1pts
    * silver trophies = 2 pts
    * gold trophies = 6 pts
    * platinum trophies = 12pts

These are the same values that PSN assigns each trophy when determining a player’s gamer level, trophy progress in a game, and the trophy capacity per game.

Taken from OP.

Hi guys! I also applied to join the league!

Mirror's Edge achievements revealed: http://www.xboxachievements.com/game/mirrors-edge-catalyst/achievements/

All looks okay, except this one: Get a 3-star rating on all Dashes in the main game.

I hope that's a reasonable challenge. In the previous Mirror's Edge, those trials were super hard -- YouTubers always seem to use some strange exploit technique to keep momentum, and most of them are much more doable using a mouse.
