Jak 3 HD
Jak 3 HD is a third-person adventure platformer, and a direct sequel to Jak II. The game was first released on the PlayStation 2 in 2004, and revamped in HD for the PlayStation 3 with trophy support in 2012
A year has passed since the events in Jak II, and Jak, Daxter and Pecker find themselves in the Wasteland desert after being banished by Count Veger. They are rescued from the heat and taken to Spragus City by a mercenary named Damas. Jak, along with his friends, continue their adventure in a coming battle for the city.
Jak 3 on the PlayStation 2 received positive reviews, with an average score of 86%, praised for its action, weapon ability, storytelling, and overall great end to the series.
In terms of difficulty, Jak 3 is about the same, if not slightly easier than Jak II, though certainly more challenging than the original. Requires one full playthrough, plus a chapter select to mop-up what you missed. And yes, there are many orbs to collect.
Overall, expect roughly 20-25 hours to obtain the Platinum.
NOTE: The trophies on the PS4 have a separate list from those on the PS3 and PS Vita.
First, you can simply enjoy the game and play it from beginning to end, in which you'll unlock all the story-related trophies along the way. There is a chapter select available, so don't worry about any missable trophies.
Once you've beaten the game, simply use the chapter select to mop-up the last remaining trophies. This will probably include finding all the Precursor Orbs, and possibly the 250 Metal Head Skull Gems.
