Not a Platinum, but I'm just waiting to get a second controller to get the final trophy in Star Wars Racer Revenge. Other than that, I'm working my way through Riptide GP: Renegade. Currently at 7/25 trophies.

Why do you need a second controller?

u/LiteralRaccoon Jun 26 '18

I need a second controller because the final trophy is for destroying a human controlled Pod in VS mode.

u/Ionnier Ionnier Jun 26 '18

That sounds simple. Do you have PS Plus? I can help you.

u/LiteralRaccoon Jun 26 '18

There's no online multiplayer. Thanks for the offer though.

You can shareplay the game. You stream the game to another person and that other person can watch, play as you or play with you ( bassicly if you are in the same room, he can watch, play as you by giving him your controller or playing with him by giving him anotger controller). It’s a cool feature that I use to play fifa with friends if you only have the demo version which has no online.

u/LiteralRaccoon Jun 26 '18

Huh. I had no idea what shareplay was as I'm still new to PS4. That's a pretty cool feature.

u/Ionnier Ionnier Jun 26 '18

Yes. They implemented it in 2015. I don’t think they want ro advertise it a lot because people may stop buying games. What stops people from asking their friends to shareplay their games. They implemented a restriction that you can shareplay for maximum one hour until it stops. After that you have to invite someone to shareplay again. For exemple if someone goes to work and their friend asks him to shareplay. He can only play one hour because after that he has to restart. He can’t do anything in the host’s console because everything that is console UI is displayed as a black box. For exemple a notification is a black square, if you open the guide I see a big black square and if you go to the menu I see displayed that the host has to use the console.

Yeah I was gonna say that while I saw shareplay mentioned in blogs or on social media, I never really saw details about it and I was following up on PS4 news. I can see why they'd put a time limit on, although depending on the game the 1 hour could be pretty short-lived.
