Total play time was 26 hours.
Next up is God of War III.
FINALLY GOD OF WAR 3 WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
God of War 3 is gonna be awesome, i had a blast getting that platinum, looking forward to seeing your experience with it.
Nice! I recommend giving sekiro a try.
Absolutely love your platinum journey play throughs you are a true legend I feel your pain with this one. I’m not very good at these games myself
ZEEEUS, YOUR SON HAS RETURNED. I BRING THE DESTRUCTION OF OLYMPUS
Can never get enough of the platinum journeys, Adam is an absolute legend
Let's not over do it, he is good
@@jovannygutierrez9491 Welcome to reality where we have a little thing called "opinions"
@@jovannygutierrez9491 he beat metal gear 2/3 that no small feet
Adam, these Platinum Journey videos are some of my favorites on this entire website; it's even made me start playing on console again for the sake of more satisfying achievements. So, thank you for these videos. and good luck on the next game, whatever it is!
I'm honoured my videos got you to start playing consoles again. Really humbling.
@@AdamMcDermott same here mate
Highly agree!
That smile at the pop up of that goddamn trophy is worth everything
Man i admire you for doing stuff like this, it demonstrate that everything is possible if you have strong will and patience
*Modern Warfare 3 Remastered releases*
Adam: “Ah shit, here we go again.”
Another great video Adam, I still have nightmares over "the pit". Loose ends is still the moment in my life where I've been betrayed most. Just need to wait for a MW3 remaster now then!
Thank you. Yeah, would be interesting if they did a MW3 remaster.
I love that Adam says he's bad at shooters but has platniumed the bioshock trilogy, doom, and especially the first modern warfare. You've gotten better my friend.
Thank you. I tend to beat shooters not with skill but sheer stubbornness.
I remember binge watching your videos a few months ago to help cope with a stressful time in college. Really helped me out man, dead space 2 was my favorite. Another awesome video Adam!
I'm honoured I could help you cope with a stressful time in college. Dead Space 2 is one of my favourite episodes too. Hope you are feeling better.
A great video as always. I was actually relieved to see someone else who struggled with that bloody hill at the end of Loose Ends! Such a frustrating section.
And (spoiler free) considering what happens immediately after that section, when I did finally beat it, I had to put my controller down and go for a walk afterwards!
I found the last mission on Veteran the toughest. "SOAP EVASIVE MANUVERS!" Haunts my nightmares. Also the game telling you stay away from open space. Its all f**king open space 🤣
Yes!! Been waiting for this one - really enjoyed platinum-ing this game a while back.
Time to grab myself a drink, get some popcorn, sit back, relax and watch this platinum journey episode!
Whenever you upload it makes the day 10x better, keep it up!
Also, sorry to hear you had been suffering from covid, hope you're better!
I'm honoured an upload of mine makes your day better.
Thank you. I'm all better now :)
@@AdamMcDermott That's fantastic! Thankfully I haven't caught the covid yet, and hopefully it stays that way
What country are you moving to if you don't mind me asking?
@@twiggymunson6669 I moved to Romania over the summer. This was recorded a few months ago. Back in Ireland now.
@@AdamMcDermott Cool! Always wanted to travel other parts of Europe but I'm stuck in Ireland for the time being. Hopefully soon enough I'll be able to start traveling again
Hi Adam platinum journey is my favourite series on UA-cam watching your videos has inspired me to try and make my own content and I’m looking forward to your next video as god of war 3 is my favourite game ever but keep up the good work
I'm honoured I inspired you to make your own videos. Best of luck to you!
One of my favorite call of duty story’s
Mw2 on ps3 was the first platinum I ever got.
I loved that game so much to the point I got it on 3 different occasion, it’s my most played game of all time. Twice on ps3 and once on ps4. The ps3 has spec ops which makes the game harder
Edit: 9:10 i literaly had PTSD FROM THAT MISSION, it was hard every single time I attempted that on veteran, one of the 2 missions I actually found really really hard on veteran
Edit: throughout the decade, I replayed the campgain at least 30 times, The characters, the music, the missions, spec Ops, multiplayer. I literally loved everything about MW2 which makes me regret giving away my ps3
Edit: 14:20 Yep, it’s the same experience, those two missions were truly difficulty unfair, throwing flashbangs while running is the only way I managed to do it consistently at the end
Nice to have a game you adore so much you can happily replay it so many times.
Glad you enjoyed the episode and I could bring back some memories for you.
I was also going to mention that Ps3 MW2 plat was harder because of Spec Ops.
What a class episode. That 34 mins 58 seconds just flew by, was gripped. Hopefully GOW 3 is less painful, you deserve a few chilled platinum journeys after that. This is definitely on my rewatch list at some point
That is a wonderful compliment that the episode flew by. I'm delighted to hear that.
God of War 3 is much handier, then Resident Evil 3 is grand. Certainly needed to lower the challenge for a few episodes after MGS4 and Modern Warfare 2.
Honoured you would put the episode on your rewatch list.
You are a true hero. Can’t wait to see the journey for God of War III.
Thank you very much. Currently writing the voice-over for God of War III. Expect the video next month.
Thank you for taking us on another incredible journey
You are more than welcome.
I always look forward to these
The part where you save Captain Price is one of my favourite parts in any video game ever.
So epic.
Captain Price is the fucking man.
Man I’ve been hoping for a new video. You’re severely under appreciated my man. Keep these videos coming!
That is nice of you to say. Don't worry, plenty of videos on the way.
Love your Platinum Journey episodes, found your channel with MW1 Platinum Journey and it was instant sub. Appreciate all the efforts.
Cheers. Thanks for sticking around.
Lol I’ve just finished cod 4 platinum and now gonna try mw2 I loved your cod 4 video 😂
Cheers. Best of luck with MW2.
I remember getting platinum in ps3 days.
It was a nightmare & what made me keep doing trophy hunting.
Couldn’t do it again in remaster though. Maybe someday
Congrats Adam great platinum
Thank you!
I've been waiting for this
Congrats Adam well done, I’m happy you did it. Well done!
Thank you!
After a long summer of work and responsibilities, I can finally sit in my couch and watch Adams videos that I missed
Make popcorn and chill on the couch, you've earned a rest.
Love this game so much, I'm a call of duty fanboy. PS3 were the days!
I'm so ready for MW2 this year :')
My childhood
This is a platinum I might try for again. The only trophies I need are beating the game on veteran, beating the game without reloading a checkpoint, and surviving the room with the buttons. The Pit trophy was difficult because of the sequence of things you had to do in under the specific time and it required a lot of muscle memory.
Everyone time I hear you swear, it makes me feel a bit better
Man, the Immortal trophy glitch is giving me PTSD. I played the game *4* times and a semi playthorugh to get that trophy. All in one month with a big break in between, trying to figure out where I went wrong. 1st playthrough, normal one like yours. Trophy did not pop. 2nd semi-playthrough, figured out the same thing as you, so I replayed the missions I though I pressed 'resume' in. Trophy did not pop. 3rd playthrough. New game, but everytime I finish a mission, I go into chapter select and select the next one. Trophy did not pop. 4th playthrough. I did the same thing, hoping and hoping it will work because every guide said that was the fix. 5th playthorugh. Just started a new game and played non-stop for 3-4 hours, until finally: Trophy did pop. I was so ecstatic, I swear I still feel that euphoria when I watch this video...But I was pissed. I still needed to do The Pit. I had my experience with a certain trophy that reminded me of that one. It was in Titanfall 2, practically the same thing but worse. I spend days trying to achieve that one. But since I consumed so much of my time in MW2 I was done. I just wanted it to be done. So I didn't stop until I got the platinum. I was proud of myself, but I still asked myself if it was worth it in the end...
Tip of the day: if me, one of the worst players at shooters and one of the worst trophy hunters can achieve this plat and the one in Titanfall 2, everyone can. 😂
Wow. I would have given up after the third playthrough. Understand the feeling of just wanting it to be done.
Haha, I say the same about myself. I suck at shooters and I did it, anyone can.
Been waiting on this one for a while! Awesome vid Adam, love your CoD vids. Brings back a wave of nostalgia c':
just love the platinumn journey series you're awesome
very hyped for this, grinded mw2 platin myself and enjoyed it a lot!
Great work adam👏👏
Thank you!
Well done I went for both MW plats after your first MW video student took me 3 days straight to get extremely random but not impossible
went right into taitanfall 2 shooting range MW2 made that look like a cake walk cheers
Fair play to you for getting both plaitnums. Heard good things about Titanfall 2, I fancy playing it for fun at some point.
The face at 27:46 could be a meme 😂
Another great episode Adam! absolutely love this channel, keep up the amazing work!
Thank you very much!
Needed this today! Awesome video 🎉
I did this back in the day. One of the first platinums I got.
24:30 every trophy hunters worst nightmare!!! Props to your Platinum Patreons and bravo on achieving the Platinum....Sir Adam McDermott ; )
Yeah, worst nightmare indeed. Getting tips and help was great. Made it seem doable.
can't wait to watch this tonight Adam! Awesome 👍. Also, I'm hoping you recovered well bro. Take care bro.
I recovered 100%. Thanks for your well wishes.
Just a good tip for veteran difficulty is use your utility more like flash bangs I barely ever saw you use your flashes and they’re one of the best things for room engagements or even open space throw a flash in the air in the general direction of the enemies it will usually stagger them for a seconds so you can gain better cover or even kill the enemy. Even grenades are useful to not just to kill but move the enemies out of their cover, enemy grenades are never cooked so you can normally throw them. One last tip always use cover if possible and riot shields are your best friend, let you allies pick the enemies off while you take fire and you will 100% have an easier time.
Thanks for the tips.
I platinumed mw remastered a few months ago and immediately had to platinum mw2, I couldn't believe that I had never played the mw2 campaign before.
It's kinda funny how the favela mission you hated and the burger town was a nice change of pace because in the speedruns of this game it's the exact opposite. I love doing the favela mission and hate doing the burger town mission.
For the immortal trophy I've heard you can't restart mission but I can't confirm that for future reference for anyone planning to plat.
Lastly glad you got help and strats from the Patreons because although you can get good times on the other setups it is way more efficient to just reset the optimal path.
All in all very impressive man, you made that Plat your bitch.
Interesting hearing the perspective of a speedrunner.
You can restart mission. I restarted every single mission and it worked. "Resume Game" is what I would advise avoiding.
Yeah, the patrons were a big help.
Cheers. Glad you enjoyed the video.
Nice one adam will give this 9.5/10
Delighted you enjoyed it so much.
I recently discovered your channel. This is the kind of fresh content we need for gaming.
Welcome to the channel. Glad you enjoy my videos. Nice compliment that you find my videos fresh.
Awesome video as always Adam 👌 I did the PS3 version and remember the pit being a pain but I think they made it harder on the PS4 remaster as mine was only 30secs
I had stuff to do....but now I HAVE to watch this xD
Has it really been three years since MW1? Yikes, it does not feel that long ago...
Time flies, buddy.
Hungover Seán is very appreciative of this
Glad I could be of service :)
How did you know?
Been waiting so long for this. Since your MGS4 journey I must have watched every platinum journey at least 3 times just because I was so hungry for more. Great effort with this one :)
I'm thrilled you would re-watch the episodes. That is so cool to me.
Another brilliant episode, Adam - I really look forward to these episodes & I've had your Platinum Journey's on repeat for the last week as I game because I'm off work sick with an awful chest/throat infection. Very keen for GOW3! Can't wait to see The Witcher 3 someday. ;)
I'm honoured you would put my videos on repeat. So cool.
Hope you are feeling better.
I'll be recording The Witcher 3 at the end of the year and will tip away at the video in the background throughout next year. Gonna be massive.
Running down the hill from the estate took me so many tries on veteran. Cheers Adam! This is my favorite FPS campaign 🍻
Nice work on another platinum adam forvthe pitt I would have swapped the m9 out for the mp5k but still gg
Thanks. Yeah, heard some other loadouts for The Pit. Got it in the end anyway.
I’m really afraid to say this…. But you kinda made me wanna try this hell !
Liked this video a lot…. Well done mate! Well done
Haha, I'm sure you'll do better than me. First-person shooters might be my worst genre.
Yeah bx time made me quit for 2 years though i managed to beat it during summer break. Though it helped repeating from checkpoint with m9 and desert eagle and higher sensitivity. Though it might have helped I switched the triggers with the tip buttons. Though I hate the trophy delay.
I’m currently on a platinum run with aliens fireteam elite . What a game it is
Congratulations. I have been tempted to get back into the Call Of Duty series. I need a co-op partner for the Black Ops zombies trophies.
Thanks. I'd say well worth going back, probably still a bunch of folks playing online.
Apart from the favela sections the campaign ain’t too bad, WoW campaign on veteran is a pain in the arse
Hey Adam platinum trophy #86 for me was MW2 (PS3 version) earned on April 13th 2022 you should be thankful they removed the Spec-ops mode in the remaster.
So glad they removed Spec Ops for the remaster.
I still have not gotten this platnium lol I have one trophy left and that's beat bx time so glad you got it though maybe I'll give it another go :) but glad you feeling better from your covid :))
If I can do it, you'll be grand.
Cheers. I'm back to 100% form covid.
@@AdamMcDermott 😁😁😁
Hats off to you man! This looked like torture!!
I would have cried if I played this game from start to finish and the trophy didn't pop... you have patience of steel!
Thanks, Joel.
Haha, I have the worst luck.
He's lucky that he did the remastered version of the game. It took me so long to platinum the ps3 version of the game due to how horrifying some of the spec ops missions were.
I already got this platinum it was nice and fun, now waiting for gow 3 as i dont have that one yet, didnt like the arena stuff 🏆🚀
Always look forward to another journey! I remember MW2 way back being probably one of the first few games I actually had a platinum in. Used to spend unholy amounts of time in the multiplayer lol. Feels weird to say for a game that still feels 'modern' to me but I get pretty nostalgic over it. Guess it has been over a decade so... I'm old... 😳
Great stuff as always!
Don't worry, I'm old too :)
I only buy physical games, it’s a shame this was digital 😥
God I am eternally grateful that I don’t need to do that fucking pit again
Me too :)
🍺 Cheers mate.
Just in case there will be more FPS in your Platinum journey, you can totally change the look speed (left and right) in the setting. I generally find it too slow in default COD games. Say if the default is 5 I always change it to 6.5 or 7.
Thank for the tip. I increased the speed a bit. Didn't want to go too fast and I tended to just make more mistakes.
I'd like to see you do a platinum journey of just cause 3 :D one of my favorite games
Love your video's!
I doubt I'll do Just Cause 3. So many great games, can't cover them all.
Well done Adam, well, bloody, done. You are no longer the FNG. (Fucking New Guy) you are ready for the next challenge, MW3 and spec ops, after GOW3 think it will be neat to see you earn your stripes once more and return to an old favorite console
Thank you. I'll probably play MW3 for fun. Doubt I'll go for the platinum though.
i really need to go back to mw1. i cheated 'no fighting in the war room' and 'mile high club' and i wanna go back and do them properly, it doesnt feel right...
4:05 it is very painful to watch. I’ve played shooter games since ‘05 so I’ve gotten pretty good at them and watching you play is like watching my girlfriend play when all she’s played in the past is stardew valley and Mario kart. But I suck massively at blood borne so ya got me beat there. Congrats on getting the platinum though. Obviously you now have to dig out your PS3 and finish the trilogy.
A few tips for the future:
make use of your stun and flash grenades, it can trivialize a lot of areas.
A lot of FPS games, especially CoD have a Y-Y cancel (PlayStation would be triangle triangle). Since the bullets are put into your mag before the animation is finished, you can quickly press the swap button twice to get your gun back faster. Also allows you to shoot if you get caught reloading.
Use cover
Take encounters slow
Max sensitivity if you can get used to it
Knifing is always faster than reloading
Listen to Eye of the Tiger by Survivor for maximum badassness (genuinely does help me get my aim more accurate). Alternate musicians include A7X, Iron Maiden, Tenacious D, Dragonforce, and Yellowcard.
Stay hydrated
Chew gum
Sit cross cross apple sauce while leaning forward
Pushups after every success (completed mission for instance)
Those last 3 are more superstitious than actual advice but is what I do.
Thank you for the extensive tips. I think I will play MW3 for fun in my spare time to see the end of the story.
would you ever consider doing any of the infamous games, specifically second son?
Probably not. Didn't care for Second Son and I've already played the first two a lot.
Nice job doing MW2 plat man, been waiting for another Cod plat. Overall, love the platinum journey vids man. A couple years ago, I remember telling you that I platinumed Cod WWII, back in 2020, and here I am going for Black Ops 4 platinum
Cheers. Best of luck with Black Ops 4!
Adam are you planning to play ratchet and clank rift apart and see if you can platinum it
Yep, that is on the schedule for early next year.
The Pit is holding me back from the platinum, gift me your skills
I have no skills but I did The Pit, I'm sure you can too.
I got this platinum on July 1st and I felt your pain when the immortal throphy didn't pop.
We know each other's pain
@@AdamMcDermott Yea but we didn't quit 💪
Got to give u credit for being able to stay so calm when ur getting mad. Theres times where its obvious u want to freak out but u dont.
My rage is internalised :)
You should watch other people and how they do sections that you get stuck on. You could pickup some useful techniques and save yourself a lot of frustration.
I'd rather do a section myself, but after a certain amount of time I do look up other people's strategy in case I am just way off.
@@AdamMcDermott ahh I see, fair enough.
Is there plans to start a discord server or something? Love the videos, keep it up
I have a discord for patrons. It is chill and I get to know people. If I were to have a public server it would be far too busy and I'd never be able to keep up with it.
@@AdamMcDermott oh alright, thanks for getting back
That pit trophy was so annoying I feel a pain
I actually loved that ngl
It is so fun ngl
I got to the favella mission and had to stop
it's sad to hear you had covid man hope you're doing okay Adam.
Thank you for your concern. Thankfully, I made a full recovery.
Loose Ends was the hardest on Veteran. At least I got through it but I would eventually love to do it again on PS5.
This channel is criminally underwatched and under subscribed.
That is very nice of you to say. Thank you.
Congrats! It was the original MW2 on PS3 who got me into Trophy Hunting.
Never got the Platinum but I played most of the campaign on veteran. 😅
Hadn't realised you were a fellow limerick man! 🤯 lol
Yes indeed :)
33:13 That's literary worst than Become the Master for getting in the top 3 of the Gauntlet Scoreboard (33.65) in Titanfall 2
Great episode as always Adam. I had a lot of fun doing this platinum myself a few weeks ago and that pit trophy had me struggling bad for like 3 hours. Really felt your frustration with that one.
Thank you. We know each other's pain.
I’ve platinumed both modem warfare 2 remastered on ps4 and the original one on ps3. The ps3 was much harder than this because of spec ops
I can’t believe you would do mw2 after mw1 remastered haha
Time heals all wounds, but I mainly just missed Captain Price :)
Started doing a play through on veteran with the green beret cheat on and I can not get passed takedown for the life of me, took me awhile just to get past the whole village area to get into the slums that go up the mountain or whatever
I'm one off this platinum. But I'm never going to get it because the immortal trophy is a garbage trophy.
Not really that hard if you play on recruit. What's garbage about it?
@@3rdBalance I didn't find it hard but annoying. It didn't pop when I finished the playthrough and I looked up a guide and it the guide basically said to play the game over and over until it pops which is just a waste of time. The trophy should pop when you've done the requirements. And I found the trophy to be garbage because it will basically pop randomly.
@@coreyschultz2033 yeah I get that though though I missed a mission for my playthrough
Good episode as usual. What country did you move to?
Romania. Had a great time.
@@AdamMcDermott If you want to drink a good beer, try Grolsch, it's not the cheapest, but the price is justified.
@@AdamMcDermott And you can find movies at Cinema City Cotroceni for around 5 euros. Only the subtitle is in Romanian, so it won't confuse you at all.
@@badeadanutadrian Thanks for the tips about beer and movies :)
@@AdamMcDermott If you have questions just send me a message, I lived in Bucharest.
From time to time, I go back and play the "No Russian" mission just for fun.
can't beat a platinum journey
Thanks, buddy.
Well done, mate!
I can remember playing through it and realizing I needed a guide for The Pit. This was the only part harder than anything from the first game imo.
Which one was your favourite? Mine was definitely the first one for many reasons, one of them being the McMillan sniper mission.
Thanks. Yeah, I think I prefer the first game because of that Chernobyl level. 2 is still good though.
Congrats bud. I will say, this one was easier than the first one, because the first one had hard missions all the way through, this had calm leeways from time to time. But the hardest missions from 2 are much worse than the hardest from 1. I recently did the original, went back to the old special ops, and oh my god it was hell. Especially the one from the "loose ends" mission. I can't remember the name but it has Gillie snipers and ballistic armour guys
Will you be doing modern warfare 3 any time soon, or will that be a future project? Modern warfare 3 has A LOT of special ops, some you actually have to pay for. So that's entirely up to you if your doing MW3 too
But ye, amazing work as always. Glad to see your ok from covid. Stay safe mate, all the best 👍
I won't be doing MW3, zero interest in the online. Might just play it for fun in my spare time to see the end of the story though.
Cheers. All better from covid and feeling great.
Ahh the pit... bloody gruelling.. took me multiple nights somehow managed to get 18.95 such a sight of relief..
Well done on doing it and a great video your determination when you come across something like that is very forgive the cliché but inspiring :-)
The last Call of Duty obstacle course I'll do. My reflexes are terrible.
Cheers!
