Midnight Club: Los Angeles
Time: 45-50  minutes | Number of Trophies: 2 | Trophy count: 34

Now that we’ve ditched those disturbing time-bending cats, it’s on to gently patronising Trophies that reward you for following tutorial instructions. Just a quick tip for the race editor: you can place start and finishing points anywhere and still bag a mug, even if your route’s only a few feet.

The Basics – Bronze: Nothing to prepare you for hours of illegal street racing with a massively tame tutorial in the first few minutes, eh? Finish it for the Trophy.

Saving Los Angeles – Bronze: Get creative… well, not really. Go to the race editor and enter two checkpoints into the map. Save that track and you’ve now got one horribly dull route and a shiny new Trophy.

Time: 50-60 minutes | Number of Trophies: 6 | Trophy count: 40

Nothing like Sackboy to sign off this Trophy hunt. We’re almost at the end now, so time is tight – no messing about making Sackboy smile or needless bubble chasing. Your reward for an hour’s work? A handsome collection of Trophies and a shiny new semi-debilitating obsession.

Artist – Bronze: What better way to end this tiring and stressful Trophy haul than the world’s happiest game? Complete the first stage where you receive stickers and plant one anywhere to win the Trophy.

Homemaker – Bronze: Pimp out that adorable pod with ten stickers to receive this Trophy. Just pick one and decorate the whole place with it. As simple as it gets.

Fashion Sense – Bronze: Saddle Sackboy with some respectable threads. Choose a costume with at least one head item, one body item and a material of some sort.

Friendly – Bronze: Either get a mate to play through a level offline together, or invite a friend to play online to receive your prize.

Trendsetter – Bronze: Not only can you slap stickers on your pod and around levels but you can also pop one on yours or a friend’s Sackperson.

2X Multiplier! – Bronze: The easiest way to earn this multiplier is in the first level after the tutorial. There are five tokens lined up in a row beneath one of the first statues. Collect them all in one run to end this epic and speedy Trophy hunt.

Well done!
That's it. 40 trophies in an hour – provided you, er, exclude all the disc swapping, mistakes and popping to the shops to splurge a few hundred bucks on games.
