Video Games Proudest Video Game Achievement - Page 3

I can't say that I'm proud of anything I've done in a video game, despite the massive amount of hours of my life I've dedicated to them.

Played Joust on one quarter for well over an hour. Have only ever lost one game of the original Tecmo Bowl, lifetime.

Well, I got up to like 900/1.3 million rank in the first Gears of War: Execution. The shotgun on that game was the most unstoppable force in any shooter, ever. That's all I got.

Went undefeated on Tecmo Super Bowl without using an offensive play. Punted/kicked a FG immediately after getting the ball from the CPU. Played the shit out of that game back in the day.

I forgot one. I went undefeated against the CPU and all of my friends with "LA" using only one particular Offensive play the entire time. They only played me once per though.

#1. Beating instances as a 40 man group in Classic WoW took the cake. Beating Onyxia, MC, BWL, AQ40 (even though it was broken because of the world event and buggy as hell), and Naxxramas when most people never got the chance to experience it and taking the T3 gear into PvP as a tank and guarding a flag, knowing nobody could hurt you, was like being a God amongst peasants. WoW really died after Burning Crusade for me, when they took Naxxramas and made it a joke of an instance with none of the difficulty of the original, all to push 10 man raiding... just killed the whole experience for me.

#2. Beating Dark Souls without looking on the internet or cheat guides, I think if people beat this game naturally it should make almost every top 10 moment of accomplishment at least.

#3. Beat Zelda 2, as a kid. I don't know what it is but when I fire this game up on my emulator nowadays it kicks my ass, yet I remember beating it all the way through when I was like 8. Funny how it reverts.

On Everquest Project 1999, my guild beat Plane of Sky (killed Eye of Veeshan) pre-kunark release.

That was something no other guild in the history of EQ had done.

Granted, it did take like 80 people...

The strat we came up with to beat EoV was insane.

1. Knocking out Tyson
2. Halo on Legendary
3. Carding a 42 on one of the versions of Tiger Woods. I ****ing sonned that game. I'm better at golf games than any other type.

you know, not to one up you or anything, but I was #2 in the nation on Xbox Live Tiger 2005

I would sit in my room and play that game 18 hours a day. It was borderline psychotic. I was the money leader as well...and had 60 more holes in one than anyone else online.

(of course, this is because one day I made a custom course online of par 3's and made it all the same hole, and then took a grease pencil and marked my TV where I needed to line up the shot...and then it was 3 power clicks and 2 spin clicks to hit the hole in one...so I had the all-time low round of an 18 posted online as well)

I haven't played Tiger since. 2005 was such a great game but I burned myself THE **** OUT of it...

I got to #2 by playing ONLY (I forget the mode online...but you could play with caddy tips against someone or without them...I played without)...I learned how to read the greens by using the chip to see the slope of the greens (while on the greens) and I perfected the 1 putt that way without caddy tips...

it just absolutely raped people online...I was unbeatable on my home course and the #1 guy and I used to have epic showdowns...

again, did I mention...I had no life at this time?

I kid you not I'd pay 10-18 hours per day...no job, no school...just sat in my room like a homeless person and played Tiger 05.

I believe you, because this is the 2nd time you've mentioned this and the details are the same. Even 4-5 years apart.

Original Halo in Legendary Mode.

This.

Plus I've never been an achievement fiend. I'll generally beat a game's main storyline on medium difficulty then never touch it again. If it's good, like a Red Dead Redemption or something, I'll throw it back in for another play-through. I still never bother to up the playing difficulty though; that shit just pisses me off and I want to break things.

That's a pretty "urban" thing to say. Are you "urban", Hamas?

I beat Kingdom Hearts 2... without dying once. one start over but it was a time based event I did not do in time, but didn't die.

Yeah...no.

Tiger 2005 was a great game... that was the last one I played too. Never really did the online thing though. My best round was a 41 at Coeur D'Alene. IIRC I barely missed two more hole outs for a 39. Probably the best round I ever played on a golf game.

But my favorite was probably in Madden 2005, another great game. Probably the last great Madden game. I was playing a franchise with the Chiefs. One season I got flat out destroyed in Pittsburgh in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Got them again the next year in the conference title game, this time in Arrowhead. Still had trouble hanging with them though. IIRC it was tied late, they marched down for a long FG attempt with hardly any time left. I thought I was done. Somehow, I broke through and blocked the FG. Had time for a couple plays, got a 1st down or two, called timeout... and hit a 50+ yard FG to win the AFC title. That was fun.
