I swear whoever decided the trophy lists for these atari collections is sick in the head. The bronzes aren't too bad, but some of the silvers and golds require some mastery of the games asked of you. Even someone like me who grew up playing atari games some of these had me pulling my hair out. I can't imagine what it's like for someone who may have never touched these games until now.

I won't go over the bronzes but here's the highlights from the silvers and golds

Silver
Kill 10 UFOs in a single level of arcade Asteroids without dying
Win Level 2 without slaying a single dragon in Adventure
Reach the top of the local scoreboard in Gravitar
Win Ultimate Haunted House (Game 9)
Reach the top of the local scoreboard in Major Havoc
Get a score of at least 40 in Race's solo Crash n Score
Win a game of Video Chess against the machine at Skill Level 4
Clear a full screen in arcade Super Breakout while playing cavity or double
Get to level 19 in arcade Missile Command

Gold
Finish Adventure Level 1 in under 40 seconds
Get extended play in a Sprint 2 race without hitting any walls or oil
Get to a score of 50,000 without losing a life in Asteroids Deluxe
Get to 60 parsecs in Star Ship's Warp Drive game (Games 10 or 11)
Attain a rank of Admiral in a game of Stellar Track

The underlined ones in particular were the ones I began questioning my sanity. I was never good at missile command though and once you're past level 8 or so it just goes so fast. Similarly getting 50K in Asteroids Deluxe that's going through several stages without dying once and so many random things can happen especially when the homing asteroids. All that said I'll probably check out Volume 3 at some point. v_v
