Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (including Mile High Club) and Call of Duty: World at War on Veteran. I've slain them both but I didn't leave my room for like 3 days. I still have flashbacks of the grenade danger indicators that used to fill the screen. There were SO MANY GRENADES!

My new White Whale is Mass Effect 2 on Insanity difficulty. Scions should not be able to survive a direct hit from the Cain!

Oh I took my time on each course myself too. Aside from Blackjack, I have a standard record of roughly 120 streight victories in each course, and boy did that rack up the money and items. There are only a few peices of armor and weapons I don't have, but it's mainly for the characters that don't get as much of my time like Barts and Shantoto ect.. I'll get em some day on a bored afternoon.

PS. Black Jack is pretty tough. Even after destroying Chaos pretty handily in Inward Chaos, the most powerful enemy I've beaten is a level 134 Kefka so far...
Oh fuck just wait till you face up against the fucker Chaos between 130-150, you will experience true pain and frustration worse than the amazing no fault enemy AI. Be prepared for near instant break status if you're no prepared and you get hit, especially because of stupid chaos wing (what I call his little spinny attack). Just surviving one round with him is a friggen chore, by round 3 (if you make it that far) you're about ready to snap.

By the time he's close to death or round 3 he gets desperate and spams demons dance, devine punishment, sometimes scarlet rain, and that stupid pillar of fire attack that sucks you in (which leaves him impervious to staggering). You keep avoiding it over and over and over and your margin for attack grows shorter. Eventually you are gonna screw up and then Shinryuu comes to his god damned aid to seal the deal.

He will hurt you, and you will know pain. There is no running away, and no place to hide or be safe. ExDeath is the easy way out and even THAT can be a challenge. So be prepared to die about 50% unless you know your shit.

Level 150 Chaos, not the cheapest or hardest fighting game boss ever (he's quite balanced compared to most), but by god is he a basterd.

When I was really little, Ocarina of Time was. I loved that game to death, and couldn't ever get past the water temple.

Admittedly, I returned to it recently and beat the game, but still. I have now moved on to MW2 and collecting all the pieces of Intel, while on Veteran. Just for the heck of it.

Much more fun when you've got enough mods installed to make all that countryside worth visiting. Something like FCOM (as crashy as it makes the game...) makes it more than just a mindless gate grind.

Mass Effect 2 on Insane is my current White Whale

Afterwards would be finishing FF13 without threatening to kill myself for playing such a horrible piece of crap game.

I forced myself to get the Legendary Survivor title on Guild Wars on a Necromancer, I don't know why. I hardly even play casters unless they're healers and now I feel obliged to play on my Necromancer just because I spent so fucking long getting that title.

I also just got the Chef title on WoW after fucking ages of trying to get it, I don't know why I did it, I just liked the title. It took a lot of dailies to get the recipes, it's not as hard as getting the Salty title though, that's an RNG-fest.

Earth Defense Force 2017 on difficulties higher than Hard Mode. That game is full of a variety of tasty and rare cheese.

Yeah, I modded it quite a bit and was it still got dull. I wanted Morrowind with better graphics and instead got something that was just a bit too bland.

No thats not a RNG fest... the RNG stuff is inevitable. Its the StrangleThorn Fishing Contest, which happens for like... 20 mintues... once a week. Camp it... camp it hard.

Ninja Gaiden 2's Path of the Master Ninja difficulty. Been at it since August 09 and still haven't finished it. Crazy hard. Also, Mile High Club achievement = awesome.

My gaming white whale?

PC game: I wanna be the guy
Reason: It's too damn hard to beat the entire thing. Been close several times.

GBA: Megaman Battle Network 4 Blue Moon
Reason 1: Game's chips constantly glitch
Reason 2: The amount of times I've had to start over because of reason one.

GCN: Sonic Adventure DX
Reason: I can't get all the damn emblems. And I really want to.
