Based on what I've played, Devil May Cry 4, Dead or Alive 4, and the first Saints Row would be extremely frustrating, even if some of the frustration is just from being time consuming... Saints Row I believe to be nearly impossible though. If not entirely impossible, one of my friends had told me several of the achievements were glitched. Not sure if that's accurate though.

For arcade games only Megaman 9 seems extremely difficult... at least for someone like me. Maybe Bionic Commando.

But I'm sure there's more than these games that would prove to be a huge pain. What do you think? =/

Final Fantasy XI You have to max out all classes, complete all missions for all three cities, complete all expansion quests, raise a craft to 100, and contain a obtain relic weapon in an online dying FFXI community.

NBA Live 07. One of the achievements is to be online at the same time as 999 other people. As far as I know, that has never happened, despite organized attempts to do so.

FFXI.. and that's not an opinion it's a fact. It is by far the most time consuming and hardest.

F.E.A.R.

Go and look at the achievement list and details. Not the hardest game to 1000 point on, but I would say top 10. I guess F.E.A.R.2 is a lot more forgiving on APs.

PDZ is one of the hardest you only get 5 points for beating the game on normal 25 for beating it on the hardest and it was a very hard game, and a lot of them were online and glitched. Also Tony Hawk Project 8, you have to be an expert to beat it first of all and then doing like everything on was very very very hard. I gave up on that game cause it was so hard.

Did you go all the way through? I don't remember the name of the mission, but the one toward the end when you charge the germans with the russians, and you have to take out 4 Flack guns. That one is so ridiculously hard. 25 grenades coming at you at the same time, and you die within 2 shots. Pretty tough stuff. The other missions weren't anywhere near as bad though.

I was going to bring this up. This is extremely hard, a few of the requirements for some are almost impossible given that some games are too short to acomplish them.

ninja gaiden 2 simply because you have 5 seperate achievements for beating the game using only 1 of the various weapons. therefore, you have to play through the game 5 seperate times, each time using only one of those weapons, in order to get all the achievements. top that off with an achievement for beating it on all the difficulties and you're going to be playing through ninja gaiden 2 for the rest of your life in order to get all of them. and master ninja, the hardest difficulty, is no joke. i give props to people who can beat the game on that difficulty without crying

I was going to say Project 8, but you beat me to it. I currently have 535 out of 1000 gamerscore points. I go back every once in a while to attempt the Sick difficulty achievements for the Classic goals, I only have about three of them

Final Fantasy XI is definitely at the top of the list, then games like GRAW, Ninja Gaiden II, Smash TV, Robotron, DMC4, and Ikaruga. Culdcept Saga is another as it has several difficult and time consuming achievements, one of them being to win 200 games online, which would take forever considering the games can take an hour or more to play and so few people play it online, and some of those who do are uber and tough to beat.

Guitar Hero 3 is really tough to get the full 1000 on, even if you can master Expert you still need to find someone else of equal ability to go through all the coop achievements. There are a few games that require you to be top of a global leaderboard - GRAW, Quake, Chromehounds Several EA Sports titles have impossible achievements - any online achievement for a 2006 title - the servers have been permanently taken offline. And as someone mentioned NBA Live 07 - 1000 online - unlikely to happen On XBLA the hardest I've played was Robotron 2084 - most people can't reach Wave 10, but to get all the achievements you need to reach Wave 100.

Guitar Hero 3 had the worst achievements. Call of Duty 2 on Veteran was rediculously tough. And in Burnout Revenge was pretty impossible to win all events.

I would say that Call of Duty 4 and World at War are really hard to get the acheivments on.

You have to complete the missions on veteran which is pretty hard but also no one wants to take a break from multiplayer.

My friend has done it for 10 different accounts already.

I haven't seen anyone get 1000, let alone 500 in FFXI yet.

Either:

  • Ninja Gaiden 2- hard game+clear the game with each weapon individually
  • Guitar Hero 3- lots of achievements, really hard aswell.
  • Far Cry 2- pretty hard to get the full 1000, lots of online achievements.

What??

Are you kidding me? Bioshock was, well, easy (if only because it was so damn fun). Even the Brass Balls achievement was easy. To say that was hard when according to you the Mile High Club wasn't just doesn't make sense.

Some games demand that you climb to the top of the leaderboard for an achievement. That's pretty ridiculous. I've heard people claim on this forum that EA shut down the servers to some of its old sports games, making it impossible to get multiplayer achievements.

Jesus, I had a big thing typed up and it wouldn't go through. -.-'

Short version:
All these games sound nearly impossible... except the CoD ones,I think those just take patience. I remember on CoD2 there was some level where you got ambushed, and you were stuck in a fairly narrow alley with people shooting down at you off the tops of the buildings you were between... also I believe there were people at either end of the alley. It took me forever to get past that bit...

I found another game to add to my old list, which is Hitman: Blood Money. It looks extremely hard. :(
