What is your most hardcore achievement.

In your gaming career?

Mine is finishing Star Wars Tie Fighter on the hardest difficulty without ever calling for backup (except for that "Osprey" mission where the game's plot forced you to call in reinforcements). After playing X-wing, I wanted to see if I could max out rank and medals in the Imperial navy. Can't remember if I achieved that goal, and I got killed a ton, but I did finish. Hardest difficulty. No backup.

Finishing Ninja Gaiden Black on Master Ninja difficulty...why I donated my health and mental stability to such a cause, I never know. Nor will I ever do it again.

I got to level 100 with Squall, irvine, and Quistis in FFVIII, and Zidane in IX. in VII I beat ruby and emerald weapon, too, and in VI I killed Kefka with one turn for each of my 4 characters. I beat metroid Zero Mission in under 2 hours. Finally, in Extreme difficulty in MGS3, I got all of the boss character's camo by defeating them using only the tranquilizer. Some pretty cool stuff.

Oh, and in Contra 4, I can beat the first level in hard mode. I think level 2 might be impossible.

beating god of war on god mode + finishing the challenge of gods.

Idk what you'd consider hardcore, but getting all 150 Pokemon on Pokemon Red was an achievement for me.

Y'know, I never got around to FFVII. I was "out of gaming" during that era. Guess I gotta get me a copy at some point.eggmcmuff

I guess mine would be beating Contra for NES with only three men, no continues, 1 player. Something I can't do with the XBLA version with extra men and continues.

Beating MGS2 in one setting. thas right, I completed MGS2 as soon as I got it, I played it straight for about 13-14 hours without stopping, afterward I felt kinda weak and went to bed where I was still seeing images and playing MGS2 :DChilled_AB

Beating Ikarua. I've been playing the game 2 handed for the last few months and still cannot beat the game like this. There are videos of people doing this on youtube, buy you have no idea how hard it is until you try it. TonySoprano314

Damn, you are a stud

Erm..I completed Metal Gear Solid in 3 hours and under and i don't consider myself hardcore.....

But a friend brung his 360 and Bioshock over beofre i got mine and I played it non stop for about 13 hours and completed it, really good game aswell :)

not mine but my friend beat every mission in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion...deadface001

Beating Double Dragon at age 5.

Capturing all 151 Pokemon in Pokemon Red (traded for Mew..)

Beating Zelda: Link's Awakening in one sitting without screen cheats.

I once beat Fallout in less than 12 minutes.

Completed Super Mario Bros. 3 in one sitting, while only losing 1 life.

Beat every Grand Theft Auto game (III, Vice City, San Andreas) without using a cheat code.

Beat the Call of Duty 4 mission "Mile High Club" on Veteran difficulty on my 3rd try.

beating Bayou Billy, Section Z (without a map) and Hydlide on the NES,

beating rachet and clank going commando using only starter pistol (lancer?)

100% metroid fusion in 2 hours 13 minutes.

Definitely healing in Naxxramas (WoW). Killing 2 70s including a healer with a 66 mage and corpse camp them is pretty cool too.

Perfect Dark would come second, I completed all missions in perfect mode except ship attack and the ruins.

I've finished FFVII 4 times, but only killed the emerald weapon once. I never killed the ruby weapon, but I plan on doing that after finishing FFVIII and FFIX once again.

well aside from beating some older more difficult nintendo games (ninja gaiden 1, the original tmnt, castlevania 1 w/ 1 life)

i beat vandal hearts in one sitting (no memory card) beginning to end, no sleep, no lost battles. that was a friggin test of will.

Beating Pokemon Red in 3 hours and getting AA on a song in Stepmania on heavy.Master_Saibot

Which song? Is this like an 8-foot heavy song or 17-foot? Because that makes a large difference in hardcoreness... :P

Beating MGS:3 on the hardest difficulty without being seen or killing anyone. (and without the "cheater" items to)Thevenin167

What do you mean by "cheater" items? Like the camoflauge that makes you invisible?

1. Beating the Original CONTRA without being shot or dying once.

2. Beat Super Mario World in K-Mart at the kiosk when it was first released. The crowd hailed me as King!

3. Played Burnout Takedown for 14 hours straight without getting out of my chair or pausing it.

4. Played Mario 64 for 12 solid hours once.

That last two aren't really that great, but still fun to talk about.

i beat legend of zelda: links awakening DX, oracle of ages, and oracle of seasons all in under 8 hours each

i beat PoP:SoT in 6 hours, one sitting

i got 264 points online in one match on starwars battlefront 2 in a clan server

i beat spiderman 3 in 4 hours(its a short game...)

i beat medal of honor vanguard in 6 hours

splinter cell no kills

splinter cell pandora tomorrow, no kills

star wars battlefront 2 105 guardian medals(tons of the others but thats the highest)

im relatively new to gaming(just over a year) so i feel like these are some good accomplishments...

Back in 1993, when Doom first came out, I was the first person in my dorm to get 100% of the secrets and second to finish (shareware, not all 4 episodes).

more recently, on Final Fantasy XII, I completed the Trickster hunt with an avg. char. level of 25 (gotta love the drain spell).

also, beating Belias the Gigas on Final Fantasy Tactics in four shots (gotta love the Holy spell, too).

Nice!:D I couldn't get past that battle for the longest time, would just get frustrated and start a new game. I was such an SRPG noob back then.:lol:

Beating MGS1 at extreme! man that was really fun and challenging

also , I just need to beat the finnal boss in God of war on god mode:)

(by the way I used to think that thinking about FFX as an easy game is hardcore ,but now nope, I think it's because it was my very first JRPG)
