Editorial Team

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is a first-person shooter, and the sixth installment in the Call of Duty series. Modern Warfare 2 continues the story after Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare - which does not have trophy support on the PlayStation 3.

Players assume the role of several characters, as missions take you to Afghanistan, Russia, and Brazil, among other locations, to stop an ultra-nationalist terrorist group bent on starting WWIII.

Modern Warfare 2 received even higher critical acclaim than its predecessor, scoring an average rating of 93%, praised for its compelling story, great graphics and a fun multiplayer experience.

If you're familiar with the Call of Duty series, than you'll know what to expect in terms of difficulty. The trophies are similar, with the standard story related, various challenges, collectibles, and extra missions.

Generally, Modern Warfare 2 is considered one of the easier Platinums in the Duty series.

If you've played other Call of Duty games, than you know the drill. If you're in a rush for that Platinum, then set the difficulty on Veteran. Otherwise, if you're new to the COD series or first-person shooters in general, you may want to first play through on an easier mode to get a feel for things.

During the campaign, you'll want to follow a walkthrough to help locate and collect all the Intel, which we have several under our Links tab. There are also a number of challenges throughout the game at certain stages to earn more trophies - check out the numerous Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details.

Once that's done, you'll have the Special Ops missions. If you struggle with these, you can play with a friend to help you out. If you haven't got any friends, check out the Boosting Forums under our Links tab to find a boosting buddy.

Call of Duty Black Ops Trophy Guide

Call of Duty Black Ops Trophy Guide. Difficulty: ***  A first-person shooter and seventh installment in the Call of Duty series, taking place during the Cold War. Requires a little more than average first-person shooter skills for the Platinum trophy.

Call of Duty: Black Ops

Call of Duty: Black Ops is a first-person shooter, and the seventh installment in the Call of Duty series. The game includes a "Zombie" mode, in addition to the standard single-player campaign and multiplayer.

Taking place during the Cold War of the '60's, the player goes behind enemy lines in various locations, including Cuba, Kazakhstan, Hong Kong, and Laos, while taking control of various different characters as part of a Black Ops mission. The game also features historical characters, such as John F. Kennedy and Fidel Castro.

Black Ops enjoyed both financial and critical success, with an average score of 88%, praised for its polished graphics, exciting campaign, and overall fun multiplayer.

This rating, of course, depends on your skills at first-person shooters. If you're familiar with Call of Duty: World at War, you'll be happy to know that Black Ops is far easier to play on Veteran mode.

Trophies include story-related, specific challenges, collectibles, and a few online. On average, it may take you toughly 30 hours to complete, though of course this depends on your FPS skills.

If you're new to the Call of Duty series, or first-person shooters in general, we recommend beginning the game on Recruit mode. Otherwise, you can head straight into Veteran. During the campaign, you'll want to follow a Walkthrough to locate all the Intel, as well as complete various challenges along the way to claim certain trophies - see the Call of Duty Black Ops trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details.

Once that's finished, you should have only the online trophies left to deal with. Having completed the campaign, you'll have unlocked the Zombie mode - many of its trophies are easier to collect with other people rather than on your own. If you're having problems finding people to play with, we've included a Forum to find a boosting buddy under out Links tab.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 Trophy Guide. Difficulty: **  A first-person shooter and the eighth in the Call of Duty series. Arguably the easiest Platinum in the series, with only a few challenges but no online trophies to worry about.

Game Name Difficulty Trophies Developer Country Bronze Silver Gold Online DLC

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is a first-person shooter, and the eighth title in the Call of Duty series. The story takes place just after the events of Modern Warfare 2, where Soap and Price are still chasing down Makarov in a hunt which takes them to several locations, including New York, London, and Paris, to save the world from tyranny.

The game, like its predecessors, received high reviews, with an average score of 89%, praised for its polished graphics and exciting action.

Hailed as the easier of the Call of Duty series, Modern Warfare 3 doesn't require any online trophies, and the campaign's Veteran mode is not quite as difficult as other COD games. That's not to say this is an easy 2-star rated game. Still a challenge, though the hours put in (depending on your skills) are not quite as long.

Much like other Call of Duty games, you'll probably want to go through the campaign, first. If you've got skill and you're in a rush, then head straight into Veteran. Otherwise, select an easier mode first, and collect the majority of trophies with two playthroughs. Along the way, you'll want to follow a walkthrough for collecting the Intel - check out the walkthroughs under our Links tab. As well, there are several specific challenges you'll need to accomplish to acquire other trophies. Check out the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details.

Next, there's a Survival mode. If you've played Black Ops, then you should be familiar with its Zombie mode. Survival is very similar. Just survive multiple waves of enemies, and the trophy's yours.

Last, you've got the Spec Ops missions, in which you'll need 48 stars to earn the Overachiever trophy. This is considered the most difficult trophy in the game, and should be done last, after getting substantial experience in the game.
