What is a crazy video game challenge you have completed

[Common Sense]

I beat Resident Evil 1 knife only.

 

[SniperHF]

Perfect Game on MVP 2005, with Javier Vasquez not Pedro or Randy or something.

 

[Engebretson]

I remember trying to finish Facility in 2 minutes or whatever it was under the hardest difficulty in order to unlock invincibility.

Cursed so many times.

I think we all did. That still is one of the coolest ways ever to unlock stuff.

That was even before the days of YouTube where you could just watch how someone else beat it and just mimic their path. Trying to figure out the fastest way through each level and then not trying to die was super frustrating but it was also a ton of fun.

 

[Mrb1p]

I dont exactly remember the year, but I was top five in experience (level 97 i believe) on DII classic with my barb.

Not much of a talent or skill achievement, just crazy dedication

 

[TheCanasianfrasian]

got the invincibility cheat in goldeneye 64

you had to beat facility at 00agent difficultly under a ridiculous amount of time, forget what it was.

 

[SpookyTsuki]

Idk anything really hard

On diddy kong racing i beat the final boss using a pretty slow character

That also requires you to get 8 hidden coins and win the race to get to the boss

No idea how I did it. I played it again and just gave up. Used the fastest character in the game

I'm sure this thread will give me ideas

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

None immediately come to mind, but I do have a bunch of PSN platinum trophies, some of which I'm sure required some patience & practice. I should look.



I think I beat that game with 4 of each character type. Takes me back!

How the hell do you beat that game w/ four white mages?

I beat it with four red mages once, but that is pretty easy. All good fighters and can use both types of magic, just not the final big spells. But that is not that big of a deal.

 

[Mrb1p]

Oh, I think I finished Starfox 64 about 2000 times, is that an achievement ?

I love that game.

 

[WarriorOfGandhi]

[Ceremony]

Gran Turismo 5 Platinum Trophy

 

[DomiToDuclair]

i have a living shiny dex in platinum, if that counts

 

[Afino]

Any DK game 100+%

When I was younger and in college I was pretty heavy into the FPS scene. I used to love playing Halo 2 and doing multi-player matches without shooting - just beat downs and grenades. The after-match statistics showed how many shots you fired so I loved going something like 25-2 in a team slayer match then making fun of the other team in the after match chat because I didn't fire a single bullet.

But man do your FPS skills really fall off a cliff when you don't have time to play everyday. I feel like I am pretty terrible nowadays.

If this ain't the truth, I don't know what is. Skill ramps up so quickly in multiplayer FPS games it's nuts.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I have seriously... In the first gears. Never again in my life will I have that much free time and that's what I did with it.

 

[Mantis]

I can do "Mile High Club" on Call of Duty 4 Veteran difficulty pretty much at will. I can also beat the Cargo Ship Mockup ridiculously fast.

 

[blue425]

This is insane

Finished Punch-Out from start to finish without getting hit.

Holy **** that is nuts. Which PO?

 

[PALE PWNR]

I beat 3 level 9 Samus' in Super Smash Bros. with every character.

 

[McRpro]

Holy **** that is nuts. Which PO?

Tyson's. Did it before Mr. Dream version was released. I played it SO much when i was a kid lol.

 

[All-Star]

I won the Stanley Cup (yeah we had a mini cup) at work using France as my team. The other guys were all using good teams.

 

[Commander Clueless]

I completed several games of Battlefield Bad Company 2 as MVP without ever firing a single shot.


An achievement? Not really, but fun. I Hacksaw Ridged the crap out of that game.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Custom robo on gamecube. Didn't know I could update the moves of my robot so I beat the whole entire game with the 3 started with. Honestly made it challenging because the robots I faced a few had some moves I would have wanted.

Also played a fifa 14?

We had 6 teams of 2.

Random teams never really played fifa.

I scored more goals than any of the 5teams in the preliminary rounds. Than we preceded to win the semis and finals without losing a game. Like I scored the most goals and more than any team. (My teammate was the best player out of them apparently so that helped.)

Man, hated that level. Beat it eventually but there were definitely some "want to throw your controller" moments.

I guess I've gotten all 120 stars in Super Mario 64 in one day about five times. Favorite game ever.

Used to be amazing at the DS game Meteos if anyone played that one. Maxed out a few levels and approached WRs in others.

Did the Nuzlocke challenge in Pokemon once. Sapphire I think. That was fun.

I was an excellent "snaker" in Mario Kart DS. Beat someone who was like 102-0 once.

 

[The Drop]

Beat Vault of Glass raid in Destiny with 2 other guys when it was still vanilla Destiny. (Before the first DLC)

Yeah, the skills fall off a cliff in a big way! I would be horrible at FPS games these days... but I was good once upon a time. I used to play Counterstrike back when it was a HL mod instead of its own stand-alone. There was a desert map that I absolutely owned. To the point where I tried playing couple of friends, myself against both of them. What I didn't realize was that my one buddy spent the whole game looking on my screen so he knew exactly where I was going all the time - even with it being 2-1, and him cheating, I still kept it a pretty even game.

I used to do deathmatches on the original Deus Ex too - I was quite pleased with myself when I was accused of having an aimbot.

I think the one FPS kill that gave me the most pleasure was on Half Life though - the guy who was leading the scoreboard in kills was doing it all with a crowbar. He was better than I was, but I was still close to the top of the scoreboard. My favourite kill? I took him out with a crowbar too

I just remembered my absolute favourite FPS kill. This was back in the days of dialup games. Duke Nukem 3D. The guy I was playing against set up a hologram in front of a cupboard, and then jumped in the cupboard. The idea was that I was supposed to come along, and attack the hologram thinking it was him, and he would jump out and get me. Only, I saw him setting it up. I ran up to the cupboard, popped it open, stuffed a pipe bomb in there, and closed the cupboard. He wasn't happy with me
