We Dare

We Dare is a party game which makes use of the PlayStation Move controllers. Made up of several mini-games, players attempt to get the higher score through a range of simple quizes and dances, to move risque challenges involving kissing and stripteasing.

Despite the vast amount of controversy surrounding We Dare, such as Youtube blocking any of the game's trailers and not being sold in North America, the game itself is quite tame - the steamy stuff all depends on the players themselves.

We Dare, unless imported, is only available in Europe and Australia.

For more information, check out our We Dare Review.

NOTE: This game requires that you own an Eye Toy and at LEAST 2 Move controllers.

This game shouldn't take more than a few hours to claim the Platinum. However, our 1-star rating is based on the scenario of having 4 Move controllers.

The All Night Long trophy requires you to beat certain target scores. Your score is totaled by the number of players, so 4 Move controllers means 4 players, means a score roughly four times higher than just one player. Still quite possible with three controllers, but extremely difficult with only two. Bottom line, if you want this Platinum easily, either buy, borrow or rent some extra Move controllers if you haven't got enough.

The majority of these trophies center around the mini-games. Start up a 60 minute game, and begin going through attempting to collect as many trophies as you can. You'll probably need a couple playthroughs until you have all of them. Many of the challenges are quite easy, and in fact require you to get BAD scores, so doing nothing is sometimes all that's required for certain trophies. Check out the We Dare trophy guide links under our Links tab for further details.

Once you've collected nearly all the trophies, you'll lastly need the All Night Long trophy, which requires you to beat target scores in the mini games. In the Menu screen, you can see your progress and which scores still need beating. This trophy is the reason why having 3 or 4 Move controllers is almost necessary, as the more Move controllers you have means the more players, which means a higher total score.

Since this game never saw an international release, there are very few guides and walkthroughs available. The good news is, you don't necessarily need them. But we did find a couple, just in case you get stuck.

Adventures of Tintin: The Game

The Adventures of Tintin: The Game, also known as The Adventures of Tintin: The secret of the Unicorn in Europe, is a 2D platforming action-adventure based on the 2011 computer-animated film of the same name, which in turn is based on The Adventures of Tintin comics by Herge. Players control Tintin, as well as Snowy and Captain Haddock at times, attacking enemies while exploring platforming levels and solving puzzles, with some driving and flying levels included. The game also hosts co-op play, and supports the PlayStation Move controller.

After learning about the Unicorn, a ship which belonged to Sir Francis Haddock that had been scuttled to avoid being taken by pirates, Tintin sets off with his trusty dog Snowy in search of the legendary ship, along with the help of Captain Haddock.

The Adventures of Tintin: The Game received lukewarm reviews with an average score of 61%, praised for its graphics and 2D platforming, but criticized for its repetitiveness, uninspiring levels, and lack in challenge.

The majority of the trophies are quite easy to unlock - most of which are story-related - and would have earned a 1-star difficulty rating. Unfortunately, completing some of the Challenges, particularly the Plane Challenges, are quite difficult and frustrating, enough to push the difficulty rating up to a 2-star. Yet with patience, persistence, and practice, any average player should eventually pass these challenges, and therefore unlock the platinum.

Expect roughly 15-20 hours for the Platinum.

NOTE: You will need a second controller for one of the trophies.

The first order of business should be a full playthrough on Adventure mode, which will earn you a nice set of story-related trophies. During your playthrough, you should also work on finding all the golden crabs to unlock the Crab Collector trophy. For the most part, these are not too difficult to find so long as you're taking the time to search for them. However, we do have collectibles guides in our Links page, as well as walkthroughs which you can follow. Also, there are a few combat-related trophies you can work on during this first playthrough, as well.

After that, start a playthrough on Tintin and Haddock mode, which is the co-op mode of the game. There are treasures to find here, but not all of them can yet be collected until you've unlocked the appropriate playable character. In which case, just focus on getting through the game and earning story-related trophies, to unlock the characters.

Then, you can play on Tintin and Haddock mode again, this time focusing on collecting all the treasures. Again, check out the walkthroughs and collectibles guides in our Links page if you need assistance. Also, during this playthrough, you should try to mop-up any remaining combat-related trophies, as well.

Last, are the Challenge mode related trophies. There are three types of challenges: sword, sidecar, and plane. The sword challenges are not particularly difficult, and the sidecar challenges only have a few difficult points. But the plane challenges is what brought the difficulty level of this game up from a 1-star to 2-star. They will test your patience. But stay persistent, and you'll eventually unlock their respective trophies - and finally, the Platinum.

We Dare Review

Editorial Team

6 / 10 Banzai!s

Put your kids to bed and close your curtains, because it’s time to review the most risque video game ever created: We Dare, for the PlayStation 3.

 

It must be outrageous, because Ubisoft cancelled its UK release, pulling games from stores hours before it was to go on sale, had no plans for a North American release, de-listed it from their online catalog, and blocked the commercial video from being shown on YouTube. Luckily, you can view to trailer on our Trophy Hunter YouTube Channel Here.

 

Is this game too sexy to be sold?

 

We Dare Review

 

Honestly, no. The commercial is worse than the actual gameplay. If you think holding a PS Move between two people and having them try to push buttons with their faces is risque, then any “spin the bottle” party featuring kissing or five minutes in the closet should be outlawed. If you consider spanking to be inappropriate, baseball and football players should be fined after hitting a home run or scoring a touchdown and then congratulating each other with a manly slap on the rear.

 

In fact, with over 10 of the mini-games featuring dance numbers, numerous quiz games and a fair amount of sports mini-games, there is very little sexual about We Dare, except maybe the song lyrics. “Sex Bomb” by Tom Jones, “I’m Too Sexy” by Right Said Fred, and “You Sexy Thing” by Hot Chocolate are as bad as it gets.

 

There is one mini-game where you sneak out of a penthouse apartment (presumably after doing the dirty deed, but again that is merely implied) when the spouse comes home. One player shines the flashlight while the other puts the controller in their back pocket and squats repeatedly to reach the ground.

 

That pole-dancing strip tease you see in the commercial? That is not in the final version of the PS3 game. (I have not tested the Wii version to find out.)

 

At the end of the day, the official rating from PEGI (the Pan European Game Information) is a 12 and the ACB (Australian Classification Board) is PG

 

OK, we get it, it’s not nearly as improper as everyone is lead to believe. Is there an actual game to be played?

 

We Dare Review

 

The answer is yes, and it is as fun as any Wii Sports or Rock Band game set up for a house party. In the dance numbers and a few other games, you use the controller to mimic the actions represented on the screen. There are other quirky games, such as “Blind as a Bat,” in which you are supposed to be blindfolded and another player watches the screen and tells you what you are supposed to be doing. And there is even the “Love Wheel,” a game in which – don’t tell the parents – you put the controller between two people while they HUG and lean to place the wheel in the appropriate position on screen.

 

Each standard game consists of three rounds and the number of games varies from 3-5 depending ont he number of people playing and/or game duration you select (from 20 to 60 minutes). After each mini-game you reply to a question or statement, for example “Loud Music” with the options “Turn it up, it’s a party!” or Keep it down, I’m trying to sleep.” The game uses this to pair up players at the end of the game to see who would make the best couple.

 

This is definitely NOT a single player game, though having four PS Moves will benefit trophy hunters. The game scores based on the number of players involved, so “the more the merrier” as they say. When you beat the target score for all mini-games, you get a gold trophy, which is probably the last one you need at that point.

 

Overall, We Dare is a fun little party game that is not meant to be played alone, and is nowhere near as sexual as it is made out to be. It is an uncommon find, so get it as soon as you can.

 

Note that it is a PAL game, but it will play on your PlayStation 3 provided you have an HD 1080 capable TV.

 

Fun: 7/10

Graphics: 5/10

Sound: 7/10

Replay Value: 7.5/10

Trophy Difficulty: 2/10 (with four Move controllers)

Collector’s Value: 8/10

Ubisoft Bans 1,500 Cheaters on For Honor

Editorial Team

cheaters on For HonorLess than two weeks ago, we mentioned that Ubisoft planned to take action against online cheaters on their hack-and-slash action title For Honor. Specifically, these were players who were using elastic bands on their controllers to keep their character moving during an online match without having to actually play, a method of farming which unfairly results in players receiving end-game rewards without any participation.

Since their initial announcement of the anti-cheating policy, Ubisoft stated they have already handed out three-day bans to 1,500 players. In addition, another 4,000 players have been detected and will be receiving warnings.

Players who continue to cheat will receive a permanent ban.

On Reddit, Ubisoft reminded players of their community values:

* Honor: Fight, win and lose with Honor. Support your teammates.

* Respect: Respect your opponents and other community members, inside and outside the game.

* Share: Share your experience, share tips and hints, spread the word! Looking forward meeting you all on the battlefields!

For more details regarding Ubisoft‘s anti-cheating policy, check out our previous article HERE.

Ubisoft to Start Punishing Cheaters in For Honor

Editorial Team

While Ubisoft has already been aggressively pressing to stop cheaters on their new title For Honor on the PC, they recently stated that their anti-cheating policy will be turning towards the console versions as well.

The particular method of cheating to which Ubisoft is referring to is players using elastic bands over the controller’s sticks in order to keep their character moving during an online match without having to actually play. This method of farming results in players receiving end-game rewards without any participation.

Ubisoft explained the steps of their anti-cheating policy in a recent blog:

1st offense will trigger a warning, then, repeated violations may result in a Ubisoft account suspension applicable on the game (temporary or permanent).

Actual disciplinary action depends on the severity of the behavior and shall be decided at Ubisoft’s discretion, on a case by case basis.

The anti-cheating policy will begin this week, with warnings sent out to all first-time offenders. Ubosift also stated in their post that players playing fairly can be “rest assured that sanctions will only be applied if there is clear evidence [of cheating].”

For Honor is a hack-and-slash action title released world wide on February 14, 2017, taking place in a medieval fantasy setting that includes such historical roles as knights, vikings, and samurai in a third-person perspective. The game has 55 trophies, including the platinum and at least 15 online trophies.
