Your greatest gaming achievement... - May 31, 2006 08:51
I think the thread title is self-explanatory.

For me, the first thing that comes to mind is getting the Invisibility cheat in GoldenEye.
I was pretty chuffed about that.

I' m also fond of this fight I' ve got saved in VF5, where, playing as Kage, I was kicking Akira' s ass in all kinds of ways.

Beating the Neo-Geo MVS version of Nam 1975 without dying.. Way back then I always thought that game magazine reviewers/editors had these godlike gaming skills beyond those of mere mortals. So when the editors of GameFan magazine mentioned how it took them $5 to beat Nam 1975 I began to realize that maybe they weren' t really gaming gods among mortal men after all.

I' ve beaten other games without dying like R-Type Final but to be fair, R-Type Final was insultingly easy making the achievement less than special.

I think another one of my greatest gaming achievements was sitting back and watching the rest of the gaming world tear their hair from their scalp while struggling through Ghouls n Ghosts and Super Ghouls n Ghosts, and being forced to play through the games twice before being allowed to battle the final boss, WHILE I simply just used level select codes to warp to the final bosses of the games, beat them and watch the end credits scroll without having bothered breaking a sweat ;).

Easy one.

When I was in my military school our barracks had a Street fighter 2 machine in the lounge. I put myself of a strict regimen of one quarter per day, everyday, never more than one game per day.

My longest streak was 49 days without losing a single round.

F*cking Zangief broke my winning streak.

Hmm, that is a toughie...beating Halo 1 and 2 on Legendary was a nice achievement. I think beating MK2 alone was an achievement...but the biggest has to be playing all the way through Splatterhouse :)

Perhaps playing through Super Monkeyball on Expert without continuing. Everyone always claims that this game is hard, but I don' t think so. It is easy.

The first that comes to my mind is legend of zelda link to the past, the room where for the first time you have to light the lapms to push the wall back (my brother couldn' t figure it out) and I did quick enough.....I was so happy just for that....(easily made happy).

Completing Gun Valkyrie, with those very bad controls but addictive gameplay.

Getting all A' s on Sonic Adventure 2.

Getting all moves (Yes, including throw moves) up to Advanced on Shenmue 1.

Completing Ninja Gaiden on the Xbox on Very Hard, without dying.

If it' s any of the following:

Completed Pokemon in the bath.
Completed DOA story mode whilst having sex.
Played Shenmue in direct accordance with your daily life.
Completed Final Fantasy 10 whilst reciting " We are the Champions" over and over
again.

THEN mankind will not be the same..

Not using the disc as a frisbee, after a particulary infuriating session on Ninja Gaiden.

I was also pretty proud at myself for achieving a silent asassain rating on the wonderful Hitman: Blood Money.

There' s more, but I just can' t think of them, honest

Playing Raven Shield Online, running quickly from the start location, up to a hall way, having my trusty TMP in hand, as i see the door in the other end of the hall open, with 7 enemies (8 in all in the opposit team) struggling to get through the door. i open fire on them, emptying all 31 rounds into the mass of bodies, putting 4 down, they still struggle to get through the door, i quickly reload and empty another 31 rounds into the remaining 3, dropping them all!

I end the round by tracking down the last one, and killing him, having all 8 kills in one round!

Entered a GT4 comp once to post the best time possible on Nordschleife. The prize was free tickets to visit the LeMan 24 Hours race that year, so I really wanted to win.

The times were only going to be announced after the comp had ended, so I was looking at times on GTPlanet' s leaderboard to give me an idea of what I had to get. I setup my chair and TV in the ideal position, and even watched videos of quick laps on the net!

After maybe a week of continuous and frustrating attempts to get a perfect lap, I managed to achieve a 5:13 in the Minolta Toyota LeMan Race Car (the fastest car in the game). This wasnt easy to say the least. It was a task just keeping the car on the road at top speed!

Well, with this time I' d managed to beat the best time in the world on GTPlanet by a few milliseconds and I was pretty chuffed about it! But when it came to unveiling the times for the comp, it seems the added motivation to win the tickets produced about a dozen times quicker than mine!

The winner achieved a 5:08 or something rediculously quick that I' d have never been able to beat in a million years! I' ve now come to realise that, no matter how good I get at a game, there' s always someone better than me! [:' (] (And I make myself feel better by accusing them all of cheating, hehe. )

Continues??

How many continues d' you get in Ninja Gaiden?

I didn' t even know there were continues... Or are you talking about the 2-d one?
Cos if you are, I pretty much suck at that...
