List is huge.
Master Ninja on Ninja Gaiden 2
1500 on Left 4 Dead was a HUGE ordeal, first because of the difficulty, second because of the number of bugs on the DLCs.
Vidmaster Endure in Halo ODST was a pain too.
Challenge 6 is Vanquish is worth mentioning also.
Call of Duty 4 veteran was a HUGE pain.
Heck, I could go on all day

Top ten in the US in Shenmue darts (according to the now defunct online passport).
That's what I was proudest of
I've played games for absurdly long lengths of time (don't talk to me about Pokemon R/S/E) and I had a kickass competitive team on my cart that I never got to really try out
EV trained perfectly, excellent IVs/natures/movesets, etc. No longer have the patience, but I did move my pokemon over from those carts to HG/SS, although now my movesets and team are made defunct by changes in the Physical/Special natures of attacks and new pokemon.

It was the hardest part of the game on Professional, but it not impossible. Make sure to not overheat your machine gun and you should be fine. Take a look at videos on YouTube and make sure to play it with AI Sheva (100% accuracy).Rewrite said:You guys are scaring me with the Ndesu fight in RE 5. I'm going to attempt to beat it on Professional since I just unlocked it and now I'm not looking forward to that boss fight.

And most recently beating Zelda II for the first time ever.
RE4 - One gun, One Knife on Professional mode
DMC1 - DMD mode FROM SCRATCH (no carry over stuff) using only E&I and Force Edge
Special Bonus Rank walkthrough on DMD mode - Completed Dante Must Die mode achieving S rank WITH the Special Bonus rank which is essentially the DMC1 version of SS rank.
Along with other really crazy fucked up walkthroughs like speed runs and X weapon only walkthrough on DMD mode
Godhand - Hard mode beaten, God Gene beaten in Arena challenge
NGB - MNM using only the DS plus all the Mission modes beaten
Bayonetta - 1000/1000 G
DMC3SE - SS ranked all missions on all difficulties with all characters
DMC4 - 1000/1000 G all missions S ranked on all difficulties
Burnout Paradise - 1000+ G
Batman Arkham Asylum - 1000 G
COD4 - 1000G
Split Second - 1000G
Super Mario Bros. NES - Beat game in under 5 mins without getting hit
All Metal Slugs to date - Beaten with 1 coin credit
MGS1, MGS2, MGS3 - Perfect runs which basically means not killing anyone on Extreme. Got all the Dog Tags in MGS2 as well and all those damn frogs in MGS3
Some of those 1000Gs were hard as fuck like getting all the Smashes in Burnout Paradise or getting Gold 1st on that Power Plant mission in Split Second (probably harder than the entire game).
I still haven't gotten all the Gs for NG2 original (all those weapon runs are killing me!). I have beaten it on MNM and that's enough for me!

semiconscious said:ffx's 'lulu's ultimate weapon lightning dodge'...
yeah, i know, kinda lame. but, not being an achievement/trophy oriented kinda hardcore gamer, this's easily the most monotonously difficult, moronic 'accomplishment' on my gamer resume...
I remember the tedium of doing this. But I also remember it being TOTALLY worth it. Wasn't it like double damage and 1MP cast for all spells?
When I think of the hardest gaming achievements these spring to mind:
Astrosmash (Intellivision) - My peak score was somewhere around 800K-850K, since after 750K there is _always_ a guided missile on the screen and my hundreds of saved up lives drain away like water through a sieve. But somehow my dad could break 1.2 million, and did multiple times. He never even played anything else. I have no idea how that was even possible. At the time, I remember seeing a "world record" score in a game book of ~180K. Here's an example of how crazy the game gets just when you get close to half a million, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v07GKNN1FXc&NR=1 Note the beat change after the guy hits half a million, it's much MUCH worse after 750K.
Tron Deadly Discs (Intellivision) - Over 2 million points, at 1 million the enemies with discs get replaced by orange guards that end the game instantly if they touch you, so it's pretty tough.
Nethack - Been playing for a couple decades, and I actually ascended once a few years back!
Ninja Gaiden (NES) - Beat it without getting hit.
Jet Moto 2 - Won a championship season on Insane difficulty. The AI cheated like hell in this game on Insane, but I still managed to pull it off. This one nearly drove me insane with rage, so the difficulty setting was well named.
Tomb Raider (PSX) - Beat the game without dying or saving, with all secrets.
Tomb Raider 3 - There was an area where you could take one of two paths and there was a secret on each one, of which you were only supposed to get one. I figured out how to get both so I had one more secret than the supposed maximum total. :B
Earth Defense Force 2 - There are only a handful of missions I have yet to beat with both characters in Impossible difficulty. Never played co-op either, which would have made things eaiser, although I did use both characters at the same time for some levels.
Gran Turismo 4 - 100%. Beating the final Nurburgring mission was glorious.
N - Not N+, the original N. Beat every level. Mother Thumping Impossible took me the better part of a half year to complete.
Mirror's Edge - Platinum, 66 time trial stars. I think that's about the limit of what I'm capable of in the game.
Part of it is that the thread is about what achievements were hardest for you, and so the things that spring to mind are the bits you had to play and fail over and over before finally succeeding. In Warhawk, after nearly 8,000 games, I've got an overall 2.62 win/loss ratio and a >1.0 win/loss ratio in deathmatch. That's really good, but it's not something I think of when I think "hardest achievements", because I didn't struggle for that in the same way I struggled with the things in the above list.
I think if the thread had been titled, "What games are you really good at?" you'd be seeing a lot more mentions of online gaming.
As far my personal hardest of all? Probably nethack. After all, it did take me over a decade to win just once.

Finishing on Dark Agent or Perfect Agent or whatever hardcore settings for PDZ single player campaign on all missions.
Zero health regeneration or med kits except for Bulletproof vest and no checkpoints.
You really had to play the game without getting any hit for 90% of the section till boss fight at end of each level.
The 3rd or 4th mission with Mayhem fight at the end was a bitch.

Beat the original Smash Bros. story mode Very Hard and one stock.
Also beat all 51 event matches in Melee, including no deaths on Final Showdown. So much rage (unless you cheap out and use jigglypuff :/ )
101%, 102%, and 103% in under 5 hours each on DKC1, 2, and 3 respectively
Also 101% DK64, though I consider it more an exercise in obsessive compulsive tedium than an achievement.
100% all mainline mario games to date, including handheld ones.
All Chrono Trigger endings.
100% all mario karts released to date (Including triple starring MKDS, jesus mary and joseph was that ridiculous with all the fucking rubber-banding)
100% Super Monkey Ball 2, including master (still too much of a wimp to get through expert on one life in SMB1 though, /cry )
THERE WAS NO SECRET BATTLETOADS CHARACTER, GODDAMMIT YOU LYING DICKS

This is an older thread but it seems like the place for this.
I recently borrowed some of my brother's SNES games, and I got to play through Super Metroid for the first time.
I got stuck at what I now know is called "noob bridge".
It somehow didn't occur to me at all that there was a dash button, so I assumed there must have been a power-up I missed somewhere along the way to make it through this obstacle (ironically I was thinking it was probably a dash power-up). I went in planning not to use any sort of guide or help to beat the game and I was sticking to it, so after exploring and not being able to find any alternatives I spent the next few hours doing something that I knew couldn't be right, but it eventually worked.
I low jumped across the entire bridge.
It took ridiculously perfect timing and concentration.
Rapid tapping of the jump button didn't work as I would fall through the ground in a hurry. I found that holding my finger over the button was a no go as well, which would often result in jumping too high and hitting my head on the spikes (it only took a few hits and I was back at my save point cussing loudly).
I had to hover my thumb several inches away and ricochet it off the button to consistently jump low enough to avoid the spikes.
And even then the jumping heights varied (even if minutely), so simply hitting the button at equal time intervals didn't work. I actually had to eyeball these millimeter high jumps and hit the jump button again at the perfect time or else I'd fall through the bridge. Not only that, but the jump had to be a spin jump.
Seriously, someone else try to do this, I'm pretty damn proud of myself despite my stupidity.

Yakuza 3 - Minigame Master
I don't even know why I bothered doing it, considering the damn thing was pure torture. But sure enough I got there in the end. Creating all the weapons in FFXIII was murder as well.

Bladder of Steel in RB2. Not necessarily "hard" but boring as hell since it takes around 6 hours or so. A friend and I did it. By the end, we were just blankly staring at the screen tapping away on our guitars.
Beat Halo: Reach legendary solo. That was pretty darn hard, especially since the enemies are bullet sponges in Reach but I imagine CoD veteran is harder. At least because I'm not particularly skilled at CoD games.
Beat everything with S rank in every console-release Ace Combat since 4. Not sure if that's particularly hard as you mostly just have to know the missions like the back of your hand.

I remember acquiring all items in Final Fantasy VII, to the point that I even saved a Battery from the beginning, the item-screen was just long enough to hold all items. I did the same thing with Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
This gen is 1000/1000 Culdcept Saga, I mean you had to know the game in and out to acquire all the Avatar Parts. Also getting the perfect ending in Record of Agarest War on hard on my 1st run, the last 2 Achievements are pure grinding, but it felt good to see that game complete!

I'm not there yet, but it's only a matter of time, but i'm only missing 1 mount for the "100 mounts" achievement in WoW. I should get it once my guild reach lvl 25(we're 24 right now).
It wasn't particularily hard(i don't have a single raiding or 5 man mount beyond Burning Crusade by the way), but i wasted a lot of time(and gold) and was lucky a few times to get where i am.

I was always pretty good at Guitar Hero when I started playing in 2007, and my friends frequently reminded me by saying "Lew, what the fuck? How can you even keep up with that?" Now, I know there's thousands of people better than I ever was, and watching videos of the Jordan solos reminded me of that; I didn't even attempt to get that good. So, I just carried on improving at my own pace and not really caring because GH3 was out soon after.
I took a break from GH for a few months in 2008, then went back to Jordan and refused to accept that I could be beaten by any song. I tried for a few hours one evening and pulled it off somehow. It was down to Star Power timing, getting used to hyperspeed, and just going for it in the end. Very proud moment, because that song had been pissing me off for ages. I know there's people on GAF that FC songs for breakfast, but Guitar Hero meant a lot to me back then, and it was important to me that I conquer that god damn song.
Some random accomplishments:
Beating all of Klungo's Arcade game
Boom Boom Rocket - 5 endurance laps on Hard
All platinum in PGR3, except 3 god damn cone challenges
Devil Went Down to Georgia on Expert (GH3)
Caught Zekrom, Terrakion, Volcarona, Metang with a standard Pokéball
And then the usual stuff:
Halo 3/ODST/Reach Solo Legendary.
CoD 2/4*/6 Veteran (Treyarch can't do Vet for shit) *Except War Room, fuck that.
ME1/2 Insanity
GTAIV 100%
242 Stars in Mario Galaxy 1
241 in Galaxy 2 so far
Rainbow 6 Vegas 2 on Realistic
Gears 1 Solo Insnane
All masks in Majora's Mask
Caught entire Unova Pokédex
MGS4 BB Exxtrreeeeme!
And some full G's! mostly excluding DLC
Borderlands, Halo Reach, Just Cause, Oblivion, Hitman Blood Money, WWE All Stars, Call of Duty 2, Mass Effect, Prince of Persia TFS, Boom Boom Rocket, Worms Armageddon, Banjo Kazooie, Marble Blast Ultra, Shadow Complex, Sonic 3

Golden Eye 007 (N64) - Unlocking all of the cheats. Invincibility was the hardest because it all depended if Dr. Doak showed up at the right place. x2 RCP-90 was also hard because I had to beat the Caverns on 00 agent.

-Beating Metroid Prime in one day without the use of a memory card

I got the one where you complete the last level in Halo 3 on Heroic with four player co-op and Iron Skull on (if one person dies everything restarts to last checkpoint).
I really don't know what it's called but it took us a couple of hours and it was tough as nails. One error and we'd get stuck in a restart loop on the last part with the ghosts.

Getting 50 Destruction 2.0 kills in Bad Company 2. A close second was getting 50 kills in the Huey in the Vietnam expansion, that thing is made out of paper and I suck at piloting in that game anyway. I expect both of these to be surpassed when I get around to trying to complete all of the challenges in Vanquish.
Edit: I thought this thread was just about literal achievements and/or trophies, lol. Those aside, easily the hardest thing I have ever done in a game was to beat every cup on Master in F-Zero-GX. I am still working on beating all the Story missions on Very Hard and I doubt I ever will.

Nice; what level do you need to be to get that GTA achievement? I am a 5 but will probably never get there considering I only play GTA race.

I should have expected it, but people in here saying getting 1000/1000 on call of duty 2 or 4 can't be serious. It isn't some walk in the park. It's not as difficult as eating glass when your mouth of full of lemon juice and salt, but saying getting 1000/1000 in those games isn't difficult is ridiculous.
Mile High Club I was proud of. I was also proud of getting 1000/1000 in Arkam Asylum. Some of those combat challenges at the end got down right ridiculous.

More or less mastered MGS on PC. (Including a perfect run on Extreme.)
Got all the rare drops in Earthbound. (Nightmarish.)
Got all the rare drops from a Mother 3 playthrough.
Got all Ultimate Weapons in FFX (twice...Chocobo racing can die in a fire)
Got all trophies in Smash Bros. Melee (took me a LONG time...never again)
More or less mastered original Smash Bros. (Very hard? lol)
100% everything on Castlevania: Circle of the Moon
Getting all 251 Pokemon in G/S/C
Hmm...not sure what else. Most of my stuff is old. I don't have the patience to do stuff like that nowadays.

I know it isn't as impressive as most of what's posted in the thread but I went in without looking over guides and watching YouTube videos like most people and it kicked my ass for a few hours straight - Normally I don't have problems with difficult games as I tend to master them quick but this was brutal.

Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.
Reading this thread I realize that my greatest accomplishments in gaming the recent years have been mostly in World of Warcraft. Sure, I do a couple of really time-consuming trophies once in a while (horseshoes in Red Dead, Good Driver in Heavy Rain, etc) but nothing that really stands out in terms of difficulty. Sure, I finish all my games on the hardest but I don't play any insanely hard games anymore.
