That f*cking trophy/achievement.

[Chrono180]

How about "The Final Countdown" for lego rock band? You have to get 100% on the solo of the titular song, on EXPERT!. it looks something like this:

 

[Heeman89]

Seriously, all the ones for the weapons in Gears 1 and Seriously 2.0, Veteran Gear for Gears 2....I guess the reason the Gears 1 ones are difficult to me is because I was late to the game on that one and there isn't many playing anymore.

In Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2, there are two achievements, called Wax On and Wax Off.

Wax On, you had to go into Pacifism, where you can't shoot and have to pass through gates to make them explode and kill nearby enemies, and rub against every bit of the arena wall. Not hard at all, since the round starts off so slow, you sometimes can go all the way around without even leaving the wall.

Wax Off, however, is a different story. You have to do the requirements for Wax On in Pacifism... twice in the same round. And you realize, it picks up the pace fast. Completely nucking futs.

Oh, and also Double Trouble on DJ Hero. You have to have a local multiplayer game with two turntables. Tell me, people, do you know more than one person that has the game and peripheral?

I got Wax On and Wax Off without too much difficulty, but I can't get the achievements for beating sequence or making that damn smiley face!

To me, Wax On was a piece of cake. Wax Off, though, took well over a hundred tries over period of like eight months.

And the Sequence achievements you mentioned? No way, I can't even beat two rows of levels.

Yeah, sequence mode is devilishly difficult. My best is the 4th row, but that was in multiplayer with 3 other decent players.

Left 4 Dead-Jump Shot. You may think, well that's a stupid one to be stuck on, I randomly got that. Well I use shotgun, so i need to great REEEEEEEAllly lucky to get this one and only when i try to get it do i use machine guns. I have every L4D achievement except for this one.

That the one for head-shotting a hunter mid leap? I got it by accident. It was just "Oh piss a hunter!" and ta-da! For me though it'd be the platinum one for RE5. The hardest mode just isn't worth it. You die WAY too fast. Too fast to be healed.

 

[Erisnas]

Currently for me it is the achievements:

Rank 100 in gears of war (plus some map stuff, 2.0 is just some grinding, 100 takes way longer)

aperture science in portal

soon to be "7 day survivor" in dead rising

Halo 3 multiplayer achievements

zombie genocidest in l4d (got it but it took a lot of playing)

etc.

 

[Erisnas]

Basically, I dislike any achievement where there are significant barriers to getting it other than skill. Such as with Gears of War, veteran gear and seriously 2.0 are not hard, just time consuming and not really worth the points that they give.

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

You actually can use smoke bombs. As long as you don't actually lose the guards, it still counts as open conflict. That's how I got it.

Consult Your Physician (Disgaea 3) Play for 24 hours without stopping. And no, putting the controller down doesn't work.

Ten hours. Yes you can put the controller down. I got it completely by mistake.

As for achievements I hate. 99% of the ones in Left 4 Dead. Particularly Witch Hunter and Cr0wned. Particularly because it seems that Witch Hunter DOESN'T COUNT unless you do it with the Cr0wned tactic. Speaking of Cr0wned, why the hell does a headshot with anything but a shotgun not count?

Also, Halo 3's multiplayer achievements. I hate them so much. I still don't have Used Car Salesman for whatever fucking reason, even though everyone else I know does. The game just hates me. (I do however have all the Vidmaster achievements, and therefore, i haz recon.)

This, I feel it takes more luck than skill to get those. For example, with two for one you must:

Be in a FFA playlist
Get a map with the laser
Get the laser
Hold it long enough to land the perfect shot
then FINALLY your skill comes into play with landing the shot

This really annoys me as I would love to 100% halo 3 but it would require long hours with little to show for it in order to complete those.

How about Mongoose Mowdown?

You have to also play in Lone Wolves (no Rumble Pit as it isn't ranked), hope to get on Isolation, the only map with a Mongoose that I recall, get the Mongoose, navigate the very Mongoose-unfriendly nature of the map, and hope someone's dumb enough to stand in the way as you try to run them over. I managed to get that one, if only because I respawned right next to the Mongoose, and the guy who previously killed me decided not to move.

Used Car Salesman is just impossible for me because none of the campaign tricks work like they did for everyone else, and no one ever loads up a Warthog with three Spartans in matchmaking.

EDIT: I mean, really, Bungie? Do you also want me to develop psychic powers and stop world conflict from the practice I get trying to will the opposition into all climbing into a single vehicle, then driving over the bright, glowing and beeping trip mine to get the We're in for Some Chop achievement as well?

 

[Superfly CJ]

I'm extremely stubborn, so very rarely will I be happy to let an achievement slide ('7 Day Survivor' for Dead Rising cost me about 30 hours, 6 tries and one new Xbox), and i'm just about halfway towards my Veteran Gear for Gears 2 (...and it only took seven month of playing).

At the moment, i'm looking at the long road ahead for 'A very troubled Youngster' in Green Day: Rock Band, I only have to FC this:
Except at 100% speed, as opposed to the 80% in the video. I practically FC'ed Dyer's Eve for GH: Metallica, but this...this is something new altogether.

 

[fer1wi]

Dead Rising anyone?

Hello.

Saint and Transmissionary.

Especially annoying when you have already done 7 day survivor

Fuck you Capcom for making the game so challenging yet so fun.
[sub]I like hard games[/sub]

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.

 

[blankedboy]

I can't think of one of those "Achievements for Achievements' Sake" achievements, so I'll just say my current goal: Getting all of the feathers in ACII. Vhat Fack? Why are they so important?

EDIT: Actually, Out of the Blue in Portal: Still Alive. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

What do you have to do?

On-topic, in TF2: "Pyromancer". Do 1 million points of total fire damage.
I have no chance of ever getting that now that I've reset my stats.

 

[Necrofudge]

All of those Assassin's Creed achievements that involve finding 100 of something scattered throughout the game.

 

[Jayde111]

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

You can use smoke bombs....

For out of the Blue you have to only exit blue portals throughout the game. It sucks.
