- Surferess, on 12/02/2008, -1/+43Dead Rising
Costume Party: Place novelty masks on at least 10 zombies (20 points)
Now that is fun~ - stung47000, on 12/02/2008, -1/+39Good list. One I was expecting but didn't see: The pussy achievement from GHIII - "Tail Between Your Legs - Refuse a boss battle".
Yes, I "earned" this one unfortunately - zero points. The icon is a pink cat. =( - Ocelot13, on 12/03/2008, -0/+33they shouldve had the little rocket man achievement from orange box...
it was a bitch. - lektroluv, on 12/03/2008, -0/+33I like the "Zombie Genocidest (Kill 53,595 Infected)" achievement in Left 4 Dead.
For those who don't get the joke; there's an achievement in Dead Rising called "Zombie Genocider" which you get after killing 53,594 zombies (as many as the population of the city). - JokersWild, on 12/03/2008, -0/+29I always liked the opening scene (where you play Darth Vader) of The Force Unleashed -- kill 12 stormtroopers and get "Worst day shift manager ever"
- MonkeyNacho, on 12/03/2008, -0/+27My favorite semi-useles achievement:
"Your Show Sucks" from Call of Duty 4: Destroy all the TVs showing Al-Asad's speech. - bittermang, on 12/02/2008, -3/+29Zero point achievements are a dick move by the developer.
- darkzero, on 12/03/2008, -0/+26Pressing A 2047 times is absolutely ridiculous
- Zarokima, on 12/03/2008, -0/+20That achievement actually made me break that goddamn lawn gnome of the lady across the street that's at the perfect angle to stare at me through my window while I'm playing games.
Er, I mean, some lousy kids must have broken her gnome and it just so happened to be around the time it was taunting me over that achievement. - elemenohpe, on 12/03/2008, -0/+19NHL 2k7
Quitter! (0) Quit 10 games online.
Not only is it useless, but it promoted quitting. Way to go.. - RhymeOrReason, on 12/02/2008, -0/+19No tea bagging achievement from Shadowrun? Aptly named "Catch the Fever".
- XtheXlanternX, on 12/03/2008, -0/+17I like the achievement in Mass Effect that you got for having sex with either Ashley or the female alien.
- mattvander, on 12/02/2008, -1/+17i actually got a platinum ps trophy for doing that to your mom
- bigwillystyle, on 12/03/2008, -0/+16push the A button 2047 times? thats one of the most pointless achievements ive ever seen.
- pinbackATTK, on 12/03/2008, -1/+13**You're not my real dad!**
Via voice communication, remind everyone on your team that you're a product of the no child left behind act. - djpray2k, on 12/03/2008, -0/+11Bloody love achivements. Shouldn't make a difference but really does add some longevity to games.
- DragonForce4, on 12/03/2008, -0/+11maintenance tunnels
- OMGRussellCrowe, on 12/03/2008, -0/+10I've only got 49,000 left to go!
- yifanlu94, on 12/03/2008, -0/+10Guitar Hero III's complete the tutorial is the hardest achievement I ever gotten. You are temped to quit after 10 minutes of explaining how to press the 5 colored plastic buttons.
- Gizza, on 12/03/2008, -0/+10I like how Dead Rising has Zombie Genocide which is kill 53,594 zombies. And Left 4 Dead has Zombie Genocidist which is kill 53,595 zombies just to one up them.
- Garofoli, on 12/03/2008, -0/+9Second page, buddy.
- Tynan, on 12/03/2008, -0/+9They missed Bioshock: Irony. Take a picture of Sander Cohen's corpse.
- Garofoli, on 12/03/2008, -1/+10How about some from Portal, like camera shy?
- Sornos, on 12/03/2008, -0/+8Crackdown had some good achievements. Like throwing a body far enough or crushing people with the Observatory Globe.
Command and Conquer 3 has some ridiculous achievements like the 2047 one. There is another where you have to play online for 190 hours or something. And the absolute worst is that the single players aren't retroactive. So if you want them all, you need to beat Easy, Normal and Hard separately instead of just doing Hard. It's not that big of a deal, but damn it, I beat Hard I should get some more pointless satisfaction! - Philoushka, on 12/03/2008, -0/+7uhhhh wasn't it on the list?
- r0b0, on 12/03/2008, -0/+7Because we have other ***** to do more important than Guitar Hero, and you can always go back and play it later.
- Coottie, on 12/03/2008, -0/+7It was pure bliss when I got the psychotic prankster award in Fallout 3. I knew there was another sick ***** like me out there. :)
- SatNav, on 12/03/2008, -0/+7That damn "One Free Bullet" achievement on the orange box. I swear I did it, like *3 times* and the damn achievement never popped up. fkin annoying.
- pinkukeftw, on 12/03/2008, -1/+7No Gnome from half life two? WTF carrying that thing around was the most annoying/entertaining thing ever... its smile haunts me so.
- internetcoward, on 12/03/2008, -0/+6easiest achievement ever. Funniest as well.
- PhoenixAvatar2, on 12/03/2008, -1/+6This list really could have been chopped down to about 20 or so.
- internetcoward, on 12/03/2008, -0/+5so much DRIVING!
- soupnrc, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4That one is ridiculous, but still kinda fun.
I also like the one in World At War where you fall 30 feet to your death into water and get 500 points. Weird. - jonssonar, on 12/03/2008, -1/+5I actually got that achievement, wasn't even aware of it when it happend. Sounds difficult, but when you think about it, you only have to play the game a couple of hours, the a button is the action button.
- wilf_brim, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4I got the Valkerie's Folly in Too Human. Way too easy to get, unfortunately. You die in that game. Alot.
- jackmaht, on 12/03/2008, -2/+6marathon man in cod4/5?
- EmperorAwesome, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4When I got that I shouted "Holy ***** Chad Vader!"
- jaimemberart, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4NCAA 2208 has one I found odd. You've got to throw the ball away on 4th down. It's called "What was he thinking" or something like that.
- hurrayforschool, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4Which did the author abuse the most: Monty Python references or emo references? You be the judge.
- petebot, on 12/02/2008, -1/+5Most of Dead Rising's achievements are crazy like that (and hard to get.)
- oneoverzero, on 12/03/2008, -0/+4Seriously (kill 10,000 players in ranked versus multiplayer) or Seriously 2.0 (kill 100,000 enemies in any mode) from gears of war or gears of war 2 respectively are pretty weird just because of how ridiculously hard they are.
- DragonForce4, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3I have no idea how I got this one, it just popped up as I was beating my friend with the guitar
- WELLDOITLIVE, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3Why would you ever refuse a boss battle though?
- Popper99, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3The ruptured scrotum.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8A-GfmCcb4 - jonssonar, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3ToughDecision is the gamertag, check it out. Not sure how it works, all I know is that I got it. I got it on one of the last missions where I must have played the level for 90 minutes with a base sprawl technique. Tapping A multiple times per unit / location / building / direction, and it doesn't take much over the span of 60 - 90 minutes.
- RIOGoose, on 12/04/2008, -0/+3Of course it makes a difference. It's why I play 360 games rather than their PS3 equivalents. After getting the sense of accomplishment that comes from beating a game, how much better does it feel to then completely hand the game its own ass on a golden tray?
- NuclearFriend, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3I coded that Space Chimps achievement, feels good to be recognised. 8)
- daridave, on 12/03/2008, -0/+3I really can't quite understand why people simply don't get it; NOT ALL ACHIEVEMENTS ARE GOOD. Those with zero points, like this one, simply plaster your profile with a "quitter!" mark, so basically if you do quit 10 times or more, people will be able to see that you're a bastard quitter. Is it so hard to understand what they created those 0-points achievements ??? It's not a reward, people !
- scotishstriker, on 12/03/2008, -1/+4The Simpson game doesn't suck
- MentalBeaver, on 12/03/2008, -0/+2I'm playing C&C 3 at the moment. I wonder how close I've come to getting it.
