Platinum Trophy Weekly #2

Articles Deals Guides News Platinum Trophy Weekly Playstation

It’s back again and this time bigger than last time. We now will include not only the North American sale but also take a look at the European sale as well. If there are any stackable platinums, meaning you can score a platinum on the same game from Europe and North America it will be listed in the description for the said game. Be prepared guys and girls that this list is going to be extremely long as PlayStation has an amazing sale this week. I didn’t include any of the Lego games as I figure that most of you know that pretty much any Lego game is an easy platinum, just time-consuming. With that being said let’s just jump in to it.

North American Sale
