Lets see, off the top of my head...

Beat IWBTG on Very Hard with under 10 deaths. (Not nearly as impressive as it sounds. Most of the game is just memorization)
Beat Liberation of Hyrule without Gold Tunic.
Beat Mike Tyson's Punch Out.
Cleared Tower of Lost Souls (both directions!) in Soul Calibur 4.
100% King of Fighters 2002UM without the game pity-unlocking stuff.
3 heart OoT3D Master Quest.
3 heart most of the 2D Zeldas, minus the original and LttP (Lttp can't be 3 heart...).
Done almost every kind of self imposed challenge possible in Majora's Mask.
Solo'd all 3 hardmode Terraria bosses at once.
Unlocked (but can't beat) Yukari in Touhou 7.
100% Final Fantasy 12 (Screw this game so much sometimes).
Beat Skyward Sword Hero Mode with 6 hearts and no Hylian Shield.
Beat Devil May Cry 3 and 4 on every difficulty.
100% Mario Kart Double Dash in 1 day.
Platinum God in Binding of Isaac in around a month of owning the game.
Beat Christopher Robin in Pooh Baseball. (This is probably the hardest one on this list. >______>)

I've had a long and painful gaming career.

Wait ... what in the world ... probably the hardest one on your list?!? What is Christopher Robin on?

Your list is very impressive Evan20k.

This is everything on my list that is impressive.

Beat Battle Kid on Unfair
Beat Liberation of Hyrule without buying any of the cheat items
Beat Sephiroth in Kingdom Hearts on expert without getting hit once
Beat a level 13 song in In The Groove
Figured out how to beat Super Metroid without the Varia Suit
Beat Street Fighter 3 Third Strike in one quarter
Beat the original Ninja Turtles arcade game in one quarter
Beat the original Ninja Turtles game on the NES
Beat Battle Toads without using a continue
Beat Mike Tyson's Punch Out
Beat Ninja Gaiden 1,2,3
Beat The Adventures of Link
Beat Super Ghosts and Ghouls on the hardest difficulty
Beat F-Zero Z on master difficulty
Beat Contra 4 on hard
Beat the Subspace Emissary in Smash Brothers Brawl on intense without using a single continue
Beat Giga Bowser in adventure mode in Smash Melee on very hard without using a continue
Beat every boss on SFxMM without getting hit with the mega buster only
Beat the Dragovian Trials in Dragon Quest 8 with every character under level 45
Beat Descent on Insane
Beat QWOP
Beat Crashman from Mega Man 2 while I was physically in another room watching TV with a wireless controller (A lot easier than it sounds)

Despite how hard some of these sound, I really abused the game mechanics to accomplish a lot of these.

After seeing some of your playthroughs, I knew you were good at video games, but damn.... O_O

Your jimmies are not ready. Actually, I think you might be able to pull it off.

Christopher Robin is the devil. Who knew such an innocent game could be so cruel.

[SpacemanDan]

Just beat the original Castlevania. Damn that was difficult, but also very satisfying.

After about 4 months of "eh maybe working towards this", another 2 months of "I'M GONNA DO IT", and a month of "goddamn this is depressing, should have left the fun steps to last, gold farming is BORING", I've managed to finish building the best sword in Guild Wars 2, the Legendary quality Bolt.


For an idea of how much this is worth, current price on the auction house is 1450 gold, putting it at the 4th highest value in the game (after the three legendary greatswords, one of which needs the other two to be made). For "pay to win" value, this is worth $493 of real currency, roughly by today's rates.

It gives you a lightning effect when drawn and fancy footprints, and guaranteed best-in-slot stats if there comes a day when higher stat tiers are introduced. And also, eventually, the ability to change the stat sets at whim.

I had nothing better to do.

(it also makes everything i kill do an "electrified" animation. so you know. there's that.

[coolgamer012345]

I have beat OoT atleast 3 times (N64 version) (each time beating ganon with a different tunic on) I have also beat Metroid Prime 1/2/3 a few times(MP1/2 on camecube and MP3 on Wii) , TloZ Twilight princess once or twice(Wii version), ALttP about 2 times (On Wii virtual download) (defeated ganon probably 4-5 times), Z1 once (Same as AlttP) (I almost finished a swordless run!, But then I got stuck in L6 and my ZC crashed with my hard earned killing Blue Gorias with the blue candle and whatnot), I have got through a few dungeons in Z2 with stats of about 6-7-7 (Read what Z1 says) , I have beat pikmin 1 and 2 once (I have gotten far through both with a few files), I have beat Majoras Mask (Holly PZC, Read what Z2 says) once and some others but that is all the game stuff I can think of right now.

So Evan suggested playing "Last Russ On Earth", basically a game of Left 4 Dead, where it's me vs Evan, Team, Jubbz, and Moosh. Since I was feeling suicidal, I agreed, just wondering how long it would take to get wiped.

 

I won.

 

One person, vs 4 other (insanely good at teamwork) people, and I won. I don't even know how.

Which proves that the "Last Russ on Earth" is the most powerful of them all!

 

Anyways, congrats! It proves that you are better than you think

By the way, Russ, the link doesn't work for me somehow?

Oh, whoops. Fixed it.

Or that the AI director loves me.

 

Not that anybody cares, but Jubbz recorded most of it here: http://www.twitch.tv...bbz/b/450974742

Fair warning, some of his mods are a bit... silly.

[kurt91]

Probably a stupid question, but isn't there a site somewhere that comes up with unofficial achievement lists for old games that don't do achievements? I could have sworn I'd seen a site like that before, but I can't remember what it was. I've played through most of my games every way I can imagine, it'd be interesting to see what kinds of things people have come up with to add some replayability to them.

Just beat Battletoads for the first time. No warps. I almost did it on my first continue, but not quite. In any case...

EDIT: As of 10/28/13, I've beaten the game without using the five-lives code, warps, continues or what might be considered "cheating" tactics (skipping the final snakes on Karnath's Lair and sitting at the very bottom of the screen to dodge the launching rockets in Volkmire's Inferno). To make things better, I finished with all my hearts filled in, meaning I ended with more lives than I began with. I'll take it.
