Despite being a wuss and easily spooked, I beat The Last of Us in a month. Feels like a big accomplishment to me anyway .

[Garpocalypse]

yeah

it's Aeris, not Aerith

duh

Seconded. Big time.

[Global-Trance]

Almost to Disc 3 now. Sequence breaking via map breaking almost wasn't even worth it since she never gets any new gear and she sometimes breaks some of the cutscenes and causes the game to hang.

Platinum trophy number 13. InFAMOUS 2!

The last trophy to get was to finish the game as evil. Oh my God, that ending was gut wrenching! I can't believe what you had to do. I actually muted the game because I didn't want to hear what I chose to do!

Next what I'm going to do is play the ending as good with an evil playthrough. I wonder if it's going to be different than the good ending with a good playthrough.

I've had some noteworthy gaming achievements in the past year or so, but none remotely as satisfying as my most recent one: The Legend of Zelda minimalist challenge.  Wooden sword, 3 hearts, and no items that aren't absolutely necessary to beat the game, including boomerang, extra bombs, red candle, wand, book, potions, and rings.  First five levels were a breeze. Six and seven were nice tests. Eight and nine? Ridiculous.

What? I haven't put mine here yet? o.o Okay...

 

I do have a lot of Mega Man Zero 2, 3, and 4 speedrun videos on youtube, but my hardest and best stage runs, I think, were these three:

 

Shuttle Factory (Zero 2)

By far, the most risky stage I've done, IMO.

 

Power Room (Zero 2)

The boss is Phoenix Magnion. If you know who he is, you know it's crazy hard! (Cyril The Wolf has also done an OC ReMix of this stage BGM!)

 

Energy Facility (Zero 3, Hard Mode)

Such a long stage... two minievents, one miniboss, one boss. Had some cool dash-spring-jumps in there! The boss gave me a run for my money!

 

Particle Beam Generator (Zero 4, Hard Mode)

This was like, virtual ninja mode. Went as fast as I could!

My best PS3 Platinum is by far Sonic Unleashed, if only because of the Hot Dog stages alone. The entire game indeed took a lot of time and patience, especially to try and get through the Eggmanland Time Trial without dying, THREE TIMES.

It gives you 45 minutes to clear it in, which isn't so bad once you start getting used to it. But my god it is some AWKWARD difficulty curve.

[AngelCityOutlaw]

Mother of god...this thread is nearly 4 years old now. Where did the time go!?

[YoshiBlade]

I once was able to glitch OoT into letting me run around in the area in the clouds after where Zelda sends you back to your original time. You had to do the SLG then hope on Epona, then run around in the Gerudo Training grounds and a whole bunch of stuff I cannot recall...It was awhile ago, they called it the "Sky Temple" but it was just a cloud background you could walk around in...not much else...still cool

[timaeus222]

Oh yeah, speaking of glitches... I did a few back in the day:

 

MegaMan Battle Network 6:

Time Freeze Deadly Collision!

 

MegaMan Zero 4:

Heat Genblem's Broken AI!

 

Sonic Advance 2:

Fell into the floor?! WHAT?

[Supercoolmike]

The greatest achievement I can say that tops all my other moments is that I beat sephiroth in kingdom hearts while only being lvl 59. Lets just say that fight took over an hour with MANY retries. 

[timaeus222]

Man, I almost forgot about this moment:

I stole the hammer item FROM the opponent and used it against him.

[Chernabogue]

Found the favorite food of 2 Miis on the first try in Tomodachi Life. Quite surprising!

[Garrett Williamson]

BEATING EVERY SINGLE EVENT IN MELEE HOLY CRAP

 

Event 49 is the worst. Event 49 is the absolute worst.

[AngelCityOutlaw]

My for realz best gaming accomplishment was that I beat F-Zero GX on every possible difficulty setting and unlocked everything. Notable because people claimed it was "too difficult" back when it came out. Never understood that, honestly. It wasn't too difficult once you memorized the track layout, set your vehicle correctly and knew how to steer.

 

Every once in a while I fire up the Gamecube and play it again. I'm still the shit at that game.

[Thalzon]

BEATING EVERY SINGLE EVENT IN MELEE HOLY CRAP

 

Event 49 is the worst. Event 49 is the absolute worst.

 

Beat Match 51 without dying once. ;3

[Unknown Alias]

I can perfect multishine and shield drop both in Melee, and in real life.

[Mirby]

Got every trophy in Smash Bros 3ds, which requires one to complete every challenge and collect every special move and hat and outfit and basically get everything there is to get in the game.

[jnWake]

I'm sure I posted about this somewhere in these forums but at some point I held 4 WR's (speed runs) in different stages from Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze. I've lost all of them by now though haha but it was cool having them!

[Devyn]

I once made it through radiant dawn three times in one week on hard. Not sure if that's something to brag about or just me demonstrating that I have no life.

Both .  That's amazing.  That game is mega-difficult on hard mode.  I love that game so much.  It's probably my favorite Wii game and my favorite "recent" RPG sans maybe Dragon Quest VIII.  I am hoping for a Wii U release because my buddy has not returned that game and if he doesn't soon then I'm going to have a fit. 

[Skrypnyk]

 

and I guess

 

 

There's 8 more speedruns on my channel.

[Brandon Strader]

I finally got a real actual gaming achievement earlier this year... I beat Bloodborne and got the platinum trophy (all trophies). And many of the bosses that give people problems (like Darkbeast Paarl) I killed on my first try

 

Then I had to kill many of them again in the chalice dungeons, the real test of whether you got gud... 

[Bejack]

Won 97 straight fights in sruvival mode in the game X-Men vs Street Fighter for PSX. I so wanted to make it to 99

[prophetik music]

i killed ten charging sword dudes with a plasma rifle in halo 2 in one LAN match once. four shots and a perfectly timed melee every time.
