I have always liked Xbox Achievements, cause they seem to give me a reason to keep coming back to a game that feels like its getting old. I don't have a favourite achievement but although i don't find it hard, Serously 2.0 for Gears 2 (Score 100,000 kills) could only be completed by someone who plays Gears 2 way too much.

So list your favourite or what you think is the hardest achievement ever (or both), along with what game and what you have to do to earn it.

I like the random cruelty achievements on Fable 2, like for shooting a bunny or kicking a chicken, oh, and the one for getting arrested for public indecency :D

Get a life? 50
Get 200 kills in multiplayer on 50 different days.

I took one look at that and thought, "Fuck that".

Yeah that one took me like a month of solid gameplay to complete.

I know it isn't exactly an Xbox achievement, but Warhawk's "win a deathmatch without dying" trophy has always freaked me out.

I've never played the game but surely that's impossible?
Not, presumably, if you're extremely good at the game, or playing against your gran, or very very lucky.

Also, people will boost for it anyway.

However, most stupidly hard achievements:

Perfect Dark Zero - Solo Dark Agent/Co-Op Dark Agent. This game gets unfair on higher difficulty levels, there's no way to save in missions, no way to restore health, and you can die pretty much instantly. Combine that with controls that aren't the best and you're on to a loser here.

Guitar Hero 2 - Kick the Bucket/Guitar Hero 3 - The Inhuman Achievement. Two stupidly hard songs, on expert. Have fun.

Rock Band 2 - Bladder of Steel Award. Complete the Endless Setlist 2 (82 tracks, about seven hours) without pausing or failing a song. You may want a catheter for this.

Sonic 2006 - Hard missions/S-Ranks/Medal collection. Shitty controls and poor level designs will be your enemy here. Also, you probably won't be able to grind through to get these without shooting yourself.

I guess if it doesn't require matchmaking you could just set up a 1-on-1 game with a kill limit of five or something. Not that difficult after all (maybe). What do you mean by "boosting for it"?
Boosting is where a group of people set up a private match and take it in turns to get the trophy. If a game requires matchmaking you can fool it by, for instance by selecting a really uncommon language or region.

I quite like 'The One Free Bullet' for Half-Life 2: Episode 1. It's challenging, but not impossible, and it's quite fun in the process. Hell, I was able to get it, along with 'Citizen Escort', at the same time.

This must be a kind of social experiment.

Hey! I helped my friend finish that...luckily I didn't need to pop in one of the many catheters I have laying around that past medical issues have caused me to buy.

You hid? Be a man and fight through the cops with an ass load of ammunition and an ungodly amount of good luck

Or do what I did, and go into the rail road tunnel that connects to an island you can;t access yet... and wait. You immediately get a 6-star wanted rating, and cops can't reach the area (nor do they spawn there).

Edit: Think with your head, not your p...istol.

That one was insanely fun to go for, just like achievements should be.

The Mile High Club achievement for COD4, i cannot see how it's possible.
I got it after about 100 tries. What pissed me off, though, was that on my 10th or so try, I got up to the hostage part, and accidentally shot him. The frustration made me take about 90 more tries to beat it.

Some of the speedrun achievements for Mirror's Edge were certainly a little frustrating, but the hardest I've probably ever done would be beating RAAM on Insane. That was tough. I also got all the flags and templars in Assassin's Creed, but that wasn't so much hard as just time-consuming.

About RAAM, its damn near impossible without Co-op. About AC, I used a map site, and I'm missing two Kingdom flags and one Damascus flag. Fuck...
