EA Sports Active 2

EA Sports Active 2 is an exorcise video game which makes uses of sensors strapped to various parts of the player's body which track movements. Players select their exorcise program, and can perform a variety of over 75 exorcise routines, while following the on-screen trainer. Workouts can be customized based on results of a survey and set goals.

The game also includes online features which allow the player to track their progress as well as compare achievements with other users. However, on April 13th 2012, EA shut down their online support.

EA Sports Active 2 received fairly positive reviews, with an average score of 78% for its lasting appeal and ability to give you a good workout.

This game would have received a 3-star difficulty rating, which involved consistently exorcising for several weeks. The majority of the trophies are easy to collect over time.

However, there is one online trophy - Making Friends - which involves signing in to the EA Network and joining a group. Unfortunately, on April 13th 2012, EA discontinued their online support, which means the Making Friends trophy is Not Obtainable - as well as the Platinum.

As we mentioned earlier, this platinum is Not Obtainable since EA has shut down their online servers, causing the Making Friends trophy no longer acquirable. However, if you still wish to collect the remaining trophies, here are a few tips.

You'll want to start by going through the two programs: 9 Week Program, and Cardio Kick Start Program, as there are trophies related to completing each of them. Along the way, however, you will unlock many others in a natural manner, for time spent exorcising, to completing a set number of specific exorcises, to the number of calories burned.

Once those two programs are completed, the rest is a matter of mopping-up. Check out the EA Sports Active 2 trophy guide links under our Links tab for specific details to whichever trophy you're missing. Also, the Perfect Attendance trophy requires you not to miss a day which has scheduled workouts. If this is difficult due to your personal schedule, simply adjust the date on your PS3 before starting up the game.

Grand Slam Tennis 2

Grand Slam Tennis 2 is a tennis sports game, and a sequel to the 2009 Grand Slam Tennis released on the Nintendo Wii. The game includes all four Grand Slams, as well as an ESPN Grand Slam Classics mode which relives famous Grand Slam tournament moments from the 1980's to the 2000's. The game supports the PlayStation Move controller, and includes online matches for both singles and doubles.

Grand Slam Tennis 2 received generally positive reviews, with an average score of 74%, praised for its graphics and presentation, but criticized for its difficulty.

The main reason for this 3-star difficulty rating is due to the online trophies: Streak which requires 10 online wins in a row, and Friendly Competition which requires both you and a friend to play with 2 controllers. However, with a boosting partner, these are simple to do, and thereby bringing this rating down to a 2-star.

This game has a steep learning curve, and immediately gets difficult in the third season. Also, there are a number of missable trophies which may require you to play through the seasons several times. Overall, expect around 50 hours of gameplay, depending on your skills.

To make your gameplay easier, you can set the difficulty to Rookie, as well as reducing the number of sets if you like.

After that, you can first complete the 15 total lessons in the Training Tennis School. This will not only help you learn the mechanics of the game, but also net you the You School Master trophy.

Next, you can begin the Career mode, either as a male or female player. There are 10 seasons in total. Work towards getting The Legend trophy by finishing each season as #1. Along the way, you will also be facing some specific players which you'll need to win in order to unlock their respective trophy.

Once that's finished, you can restart the Career mode, this time switching sexes. If you've already unlocked the Collector trophy, you can skip the events and just play to the end.

After that, is the ESPN Grand Slam Classic mode. Winning matches and completing Bonus Objectives will earn you points, needed to unlock Moments.

There are two online trophies - Friendly Competition and Streak - which are easy to unlock if boosted, but difficult on your own. For Friendly Competition, both you and your online partner will need 2 controllers.

Last, just mop up anything you're still missing.

FIFA Street Trophy Guide

Editorial Team

FIFA Street Trophy Guide. Difficulty: n/o  A soccer/football game and a spin-off of the EA FIFA series which takes the game to the streets. While the online servers are still active, there is one online trophy that appears glitched and, at the moment, unobtainable.

FIFA Street

FIFA Street is a football/soccer sports game, the fourth in the FIFA Street series, and the first on the PlayStation 3. The game, while a spin-off from EA Sports' FIFA franchise, is based on street football.

As opposed to its predecessors, the game uses authentic and realistic graphics, rather than a stylized cartoon visual. Players compete in small teams of five or six players, or one-on-one. Also included are modes based on panna and futsal, new tricks, and real life players from the big leagues around the world, as well as an online mode.

FIFA Street received positive reviews, with an average score of 81%, praised for its realistic graphics and overall fun gameplay, but criticized for the lack of commentary and finicky online servers.

FIFA Street would have received a 3-star rating. Unfortunately, while the servers are still available, the EA Sports HUB seems to be either glitched or shut down. The trophy Making New Friends requires simply visiting the HUB and sending a friend request. Yet with the HUB not working properly, this single, simple trophy cannot be unlocked. Until the problem is repaired, the Platinum for FIFA Street is Not Obtainable.

Until the EA Sports HUB is available again, the Making New Friends trophy - and therefore, the Platinum - is Not Obtainable. However, all the other trophies can still be unlocked. So if you're interested, then read on.

If you're new to the FIFA series, then you may wish to start on the offline modes to get yourself acquainted with the controls and gameplay. This includes making your way through the stages of the World Tour, and the Street Challenges, while ranking up your players. There are a number of miscellaneous trophies you can earn as well. Check out the FIFA Street trophy guide links under our Links tab for specific details.

There are 3 online trophies that can be unlocked, and the one which will probably take you the longest is Online Dominance, which requires you to win all nine cups. Each cup is cycled through one week after the next, which means it will take you at least nine weeks to gather all nine cups. If you miss one, you'll need to wait over two months for your next chance. We recommend working on these as soon as you feel your skills are good enough to win online matches.

FIFA 12

FIFA 12, also known as FIFA Soccer 12 in North America, is the 2011 installment and the 19th title in EA's FIFA football/soccer series of video games.

The game includes 29 licensed leagues from 22 countries, with Gambrinus Iiga and Turkish Super Lig dropped from the previous game. A new Impact Engine has been added to improve collision variety and accuracy, as well as a new procedural animation system which creates different results depending on the physical forces, and a Precision Dribbling that allows players to dribble while shielding. The online multiplayer mode has also been altered from previous titles, including a Head to Head Seasons in which league points are awarded for winning or drawing matches.

FIFA 12 received high praise, with an average score of 91%, for its innovative features and overall iimprovement to the series.

FIFA 12 includes 21 online trophies. Unfortunately, the servers were shut down on July 3, 2017. Since the online trophies can no longer be unlocked, the Platinum for this game is therefore Not Obtainable.

Since the servers have closed in July 2017, the 21 online trophies - and therefore, the Platinum - is Not Obtainable. However, there are still 24 offline trophies that can be unlocked. So if you're still interested, then read on.

There are a few easy trophies you can collect in the beginning. These include Legendary, Precision Tackler, Don't Blink, Comeback Kid, Block Party, 10 vs 11, All My Own Work, Sweet Music, and No Draw For You! These can all be unlocked in Kick-off mode. Check out the FIFA 12 trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details.

With those out of the way, you can work on Career mode. We recommend starting with your pro and play a full season to get the majority of the trophies.

From then on, you can start your Ultimate Team, in which you'll be aiming for Legends Start With Victories, I'll Have That One, Tournament Victory, Friendly, Marquee Signing, Big Cup Squad, Pack King, We'll Need A Larger Trophy Case, and Growing Club. Again, check out the FIFA 12 trophy guide links under our Links tab for specific details.

Once that's done, you can mop up any remaining offline trophies you still need. Unfortunately, with the online servers closed, this is as far as we can go.

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa n/o 43 EA Canada Canada 32 7 3 11 0

2010 World Cup South Africa

2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa is the official game for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, licensed under EA, released in April of 2010.

Players can select teams from among the 199 countries available - leaving out only Bhutam, Guam, Sao Tome, Principe, and Eritrea - and contains an international soundtrack with 28 different songs, includes all 10 of the official World Cup stadiums to play, and has both single, two-player, and online play.

The game received rather positive reviews, with an average score of 85%, praised for its great graphics and realism. About 18 months after the game's release, the online servers were shut down, eliminating the possibility of online play.

As of late 2011, EA has closed their online servers. There are 11 online trophies, which can no longer be earned, marking the platinum for this game no longer obtainable

We have still added some trophy guides in our Links page if you are interested in collecting the 31 offline trophies. Just keep in mind that - unless you've already gotten all the online trophies before November 2011 - you will never be able to reach 100% completion.

NOTE: Having a second controller will really help with some of the offline trophies.

There are certain teams which make collecting particular trophies easier. So, if you're interested in collecting all the offline trophies, we recommend starting with South Africa set on Semi-Pro in a World Cup Tournament. Play through, and focus on getting the We'll Just Score More, World Cup Winner, and Defend Defend Defend trophies.

Next, in World Cup Tournament, select Greece. Here, aim to get the Second Trip First Goal. For the next few games, plug in a second controller, which will help net you the Concede No Goals trophy.

For the 2010 FIFA World Cup Mastery, using the second controller will make this trophy infinitely easier to defeat the 32 qualifying teams. During which, you can also forfeit when you're in the lead, then head into the practice area to unlock Practice Makes Perfect.

Then, set up your own Virtual Pro, set the mode to Amateur and the time to 4 minutes. make sure you're playing either as an Attacking Midfielder or a Forward to enable the chance to score goals. From here on, you're mostly moping up the other random offline trophies. Check out the trophy guides in our Links page for specific details about each trophy.
