Superstars V8 Next Challenge
Superstars V8 Next Challenge is a car racing game, based on the Superstars Series focused on Italy, and is a sequel to Superstars V8 Racing. The game includes both real-world teams, professional drivers, and real tracks - many of which are located in Italy, as well as online play.
Though receiving far less attention than its predecessor, the game received an average score of 68%, with overall agreement that Next Challenge is an improvement with its AI and loading time, among other criteria.
This game originally received a 2-star rating, due to the 3 online trophies. However, due to a squabble over funds, the server was pulled in late 2012. As a result, those 3 online trophies can no longer be collected, making the Platinum for Superstars V8 Next Challenge not obtainable.
The Platinum cannot be obtained due to the servers being pulled, making the 3 online trophies unobtainable. However, if you still wish to acquire the other 32 offline trophies, here are some tips:
First, you'll want to disable all penalties. This will make things far easier.
If you want to first get used to the controls and overall gameplay, we recommend working towards the We Don't Need No Education trophy by completing all the Superstars Licenses to an S evaluation.
Next, you can start on the four championships. Use a different team for each, to unlock videos, which will work towards the Collector trophy. You will also need to unlock prizes and race pictures - check out the objectives by going to "Extras" in the game menu, and see the guides under our Links tab for extra tips.

This was a Boosting Forum on PS3Trophies for finding a boosting partner. The forum is still available if you wish to complain about the servers being down, but unfortunately that's all it's good for now.
