Editorial Team

Sony has just announced they will shutting down the online servers to several of their first-party titles. It was only a few days ago that Killzone 2, Killzone 3, and Gravity Rush 2 was slated to have their servers shut down in Spring of next year. Now, they have added a few more titles to the online chopping block. The following is a complete list of games that will no longer be available for online play, on March 29, 2018:

PlayStation 4
Gravity Rush 2

PlayStation 3
Killzone 2
Killzone 3
WipEout HD
WipEout HD Fury
EyePet
EyePet Move Edition
EyePet & Friends

PlayStation Vita
WipEout HD
WipEout HD Fury
WipEout 2048

It should be noted that WipEout Omega Collection on the PlayStation 4 is NOT listed to have its servers shut down.

Both Gravity Rush 2 and EyePet & Friends do not have any online trophies, and so their Platinums will remain obtainable after the shut down.

However, Killzone 2 has 10 online trophies, with an extra 24 as part of its DLC, Killzone 3 also has 10 online trophies, WipEout HD has 5, WipEout 2048 has 7, and EyePet has 1 online trophy.

Since the Platinums for these games will become Not Obtainable after March 29, 2018, trophy hunters and completionists may want to finish these up soon.

EyePet and Friends

EyePet & Friends is a sequel to the 2009 EyePet, which uses the PlayStation Move controller and Eye Toy to simulate a virtual pet through augmented reality.

The furry creature is back, and this time he's brought a friend. Similar to its prequel, players can now take care of and play with their virtual pet, along with a partner. Pets can be customized with outfits, while their fur can alter in color and patterns, while being washed, petted, or participate in a number of games and challenges, both single and two-player.

EyePet & Friends received lukewarm reviews, with an average score of 64%, praised for its vast amount of customization and overall fun for children, but criticized for long loading times and somewhat limited interaction.

If you've played the original EyePet, then you'll be happy to know that this sequel is even easier. The challenges aren't quite as tricky, there's no reports to make, and overall shouldn't take you more than 8 hours to complete.

NOTE: You will need 2 Move controllers to acquire the Platinum.

As we mentioned earlier, you will need 2 Move controllers for the platinum. However, for the majority of the game, you can play single-player. Start by selecting 2-players and watch the pet be hatched, which will net you both Brave New and Twins trophies. From here, return to the title screen and start a single player game, simply to make life easier.

You can easily unlock several miscellaneous trophies by heading into the Creativity Centre, Soft Play, and Pet Care to acquire the Looking Good, Engineer, Crafty, Customiser, Building Blocks, Pet The Builder, Trainer, Spit And Polish, Full To The Brim, Check Up, and the Pet Whisperer trophies. Check out the EyePet and Friends trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details about these.

You will also need to purchase all the items and outfits in the game for the Shopaholic and Craft Box Complete trophies, for which you will need over 60,000 tokens. The quickest way to farm for tokes is in the Toy Factory in Creative Centre. Simply select to build a UFO, draw a line and hit the 'Auto Complete/Create', and you will earn 200 tokens. Rinse and repeat, until you get enough to purchase all the items.

Last, you'll have the Toy Box Challenges to complete. The majority of these are easier than on the original EyePet. For the Contender trophy, simply leave a second Move controller aside and win each challenge against your 'partner.'

EyePet

EyePet is a "game" which uses augmented reality through the PlayStation Eye and Move to allow the player to look after and play with a monkey-like gremlin creature. Players can interact with the pet, such as rubbing its tummy, tossing a ball and watch it jump out of the way, teach it songs by singing into the Eye's microphone, teach it drawings by holding up a picture to the camera, as well as use virtual objects such as a trampoline and bubble machine. The pet can also be customized by changing its color of fur or dressing it in costumes.

The game received very mixed reviews, with an average score of 74%, praised for its originality and ability to demonstrate what the Eye Toy and Move is capable of, and while some online magazines stated EyePet ran smoothly, others claimed it possessed awkward game mechanics.

EyePet was first released in October 2009, and originally received a 1-star difficulty for its easy and quick Platinum. The game included one online trophy, Shopaholic, for downloading a free item from the EyePet Store. Unfortunately, the online servers were shut down March 29, 2018. This means the Shopaholic trophy can no longer be unlocked. Therefore, the Platinum for EyePet has become Not Obtainable.

Since the online servers were closed on March 29, 2018, a single online trophy - and therefore, the Platinum - has become Not Obtainable. However, there are still 33 offline trophies that can be unlocked. So if you're interested, then read on:

Each time you start the game, you will need to feed and wash your pet, then perform a Pet Report. You'll need to do this twenty times (20 days), during which, you can aim for the Speed Wash trophy, which requires you to wash your pet in under 60 seconds.

Afterwards, there are the fifteen set of challenges, one for each day. First work towards completing them for each day's trophy, then when all 15 are finished, you can go back and attempt to get a gold on each one.

Aside from the Pet Reports and Challenges, there are a number of miscellaneous trophies which you can earn at any time. Check out the trophy guides in our Links page for further details.

Also, keep in mind that you needn't actually wait for the next day to perform any Pet Reports or Challenges. Simply go into the Settings of your PlayStation 3, and change the date. This is especially useful for the Best Friends trophy, in which you need to stroke your pet for 30 seconds for 5 days in a row.
