That f*cking trophy/achievement.

[shticks]

...a false sense of completion...

ahem....... real sense of completion.

I believe it's called Speeding Ticket in Sonic Unleashed. You basically have to beat Shamar Act 1 in 2:50 or below. Now, I've only done it once to this day and it pissed me off. One that I feel is really stupid now it one in TF2 for the Sniper. I have to get back stabbed 50 times. I don't know what it's called but that's a really stupid achievement.
EDIT: That achievement in L4D where you have to kill 53,something odd number of zombies. That's a *****.

MGS4, ingame achievment i believe, makes u go through teh game without being detected or killing a single enemy(when possible, but it might aswell not be) and if u do get caught u cant just reload ur game. u have to quit game or turn off the system and then load the game making it that more tedius. If u ever got this, u are a god of invisisbility and invisible to the opposite sex aswell.

There were achievements on MGS4? What where do I get them?

There are no trophies, just in-game challenges you have to complete for unlockables, the one he mentioned is the "Big Boss" emblem challenge, which is to go through the entire game;
-Without dying
-Without using a health item (Rations ect.)
-Under 8 hours
-Without being seen AT ALL
-Without killing anyone (Tranq. only, including bosses)

There are two forms to each boss- the beast suit (which doesn't count as a kill, so you can use regular weapons) and then the exposed form. you can just taze the human form into submission without too much trouble.

If you went through killing the beauties with just the darts without knowing this, I am very, very sorry.

And no i never got the emblem. I would be insane to even try lol.

I'll also just throw this out there:

If you recognise the picture, chances are you just shook your head in disgust.

Yeah? Well, fuck you for reminding me of that.

This is one of those achievements I just said "You know what? Fuck this bullshit"

In fact, I said that to the whole game after a while. Tom Clancy, suck my hairy balls! >=(

[Irony's Acolyte]

"Untouchables", "Nothing Special", and "Stomach Upset". I imagine many a player has spent hours trying to get those achievements.

the 'silver tongued devil' achievement in fallout 3.
seriously, are there even 50 speech challenges in the Capital Wasteland, the Pitt, in orbit, Alaska and Maryland?

Not an achievement, but that's how you get the Big Boss camo, IIRC.

Again, I have the patience nor the time to complete this.

You don't have the time? There was a 5 hour time limit. Not that long at all.

Seriously though, It isn't as hard as people make it out to be. The hardest part is in Chapter 5 where you have to get to the lower level without being spotted. (RAGE!) That and Crying Wolf without being spotted.

OT: 7 Day Survivor. F YOU CAPCOM. I got so close and then the game crashed. I never played the game after that. It still enrages me.

 

[Carlston]

Force Unleashed and Bionic commando...


But seriously I don't even go for those trophies anymore as they just make a excuse to grind the game.

I prefer replaying a game because it was good...not for a shiny virtual bauble...

Surprised this hasnt come up yet: ODST's Vidmaster: Endure. 4th set on heroic? My friends and I went into that last round with 32 extra lives, and after 4 waves, we came down to two of us with pistols vs. two brute chieftans. That took over an hour and a half to finish.

Then the stupid unmarked feathers in AC2. Im not even bothering with that one. Just skipping that achievement as a whole.

Also, the achievement in MAss Effect 2 for keeping your whole squad alive in the suicide mission. "But Druyn, that was so easy! I did it first try!" Yes, you did it first try if you looked it up online first. Trying to do it without the internet/strategy guides help was a pain in the ass.

the 'silver tongued devil' achievement in fallout 3.

There are a few speech challenge bugs that dont go away, and you can just keep doing them over and over for xp/achievement. But othe rthan that, I think that means you have to do EVERY SINGLE CHALLENGE IN THE ENTIRE WASTELAND.

 

[Mozza444]

I have never achieved a Platinum trophy.
For the Xboxers that's all other trophies awarded, 100%

So.. I really don't care?

 

[Banana Phone Man]

HL2 episode 2.

Save all of the buildings from the striders. How the hell are you surposed to do that. I swear that they saw mill always gets blown up. It's just mad.

 

[Druyn]

The get all 100 feathers in Assassin's Creed 2. No, I do not have the spare time to hunt down 100 feathers in Italy. Especially since most of them are in Venice or Florence.

Mass Effect.

You really want me to complete most of the game 4 times? Really?

Fuck You.

It's not so hard when you import a character. I think.

You don't have to do the sidequets to level anyway.

You cant import a character. Completing the majority means doing all of the background specific side quests too, meaning that you need to make a new character with that background every time... you can only import on one playthrough.

 

[ClaretPanda]

The AC2 one, kill ten guards without leaving combat (no smoke bombs) or taking damage.

took me ages to get that one. Both assassin's creed games are the only games i've got all the achievements in. (oooooooh yeah and lost: via domus)
the acchievement i swear at my tv for is the Batman:AA fighting challenge achievements and the free flow master grrrrr damn you awesome game!!!

 

[jopomeister]

Yeah, I only have MW2, Halo 3 and Lego Batman. Oh yeah, Gears of War too, but fuck that game.
I'd probably have to say the achievement for getting 3 stars on every Spec Ops mission (MW2). I HATE THOSE GOD DAMN DOGS.

Actaully, co-op with a someone else and it's easier. If you fuck up and die, the friend will revive you, and get incapitated by a dog, your friend can shoot it off.

Took a few sessions and and several hours, but my friend and I were able to get it.

Problem: My friends are NOT generous enough to voluntarily do that. v_v

I just got Saint and Hella Copter today (I bought the game about a month ago).

No, what I need to get (non-food and clothes) are Zombie Genocider (I tried it. It made the game boring), Transmissionary (which I should've gotten if I got Saint), 5&7 Day Survivor (I won't try Infinity Mode until I get Zombie Genocider), and a couple of others.

Transmissionary and Saint don't actually walk hand in hand, it's possible to miss certain calls and still get the requisite number of survivors (Not to mention the situational calls, like when you first enter the maintenance tunnels etc.)

Saint is probably the hardest, to be honest, 5&7 Day Survivor are easy if you have any form of self-regulation (which I didn't- I prematurely ended a few attempts by messing around when my health was low and falling to my death).



I'll also just throw this out there:

If you recognise the picture, chances are you just shook your head in disgust.

OK so that was my bad (thinking Saint and Trans. came together).

I have no form of self-regulation at all. I am one of those "Instant-gratification" kinds of people, which is why I want the Real Mega Buster first.

Also, I don't recognize the achievement. Care to elaborate (fancy words FTW ) on the game and requirements?

I'll be nice and tell you what I did.

I listened to these podcasts by Stephen Tobolowsky, my favorite actor, while playing. The time flies by.

The tip for genocider is to find something to watch/listen to and just drive around the tunnels for a long time!

So, to get Zombie Genocider, I need to listen (non-stop) to LoadingReadyRun, Red vs. Blue, and other stuff like that...

OK, I'll give it a shot !
