By game,

GHII: Kick the Bucket, considering it's ridiculously easy to break.

GHIII: Start a Band Already!, Buy a Guitar Already! (all I did was beat Hard, and then grab a real controller and naviate to the song list), Meet your makers, and the Right Hand of God.

RockBand: Flawless Fretwork, Flawless Groove, and Flawless Bass (no one I know can "sing" flawlessly, so let's just remove that), Groove Technician. Basically, anything that shows I can play the drums on rockband due to the fact that most XBL players buy rockband so they can use the GH guitars to prove how "awesome" they are.

BioShock: Irony (just ridiculously funny), Tonic Collector/Historian (seriously? 30G?), Research PhD (if ever there was a chance to take a funny picture, it was in Ft. Frolic).

About the comment towards achievements being the lame side of XBL, I think they give reason to replay a game. All consoles should have this feature, but restricted to companies who understand the mechanics of it (Neversoft can suck my balls with their achievements for all I care...seriously? I have to beat Through the Fire on EXPERT? AND win 15 online matches WITH A CONTROLLER?!). Plus, if you play through a game once, you're likely to unlock at least a fourth of the acievements to begin with. I'm replaying BioShock for the third time to unlock the Brass Balls and "Beat the game on the hardest difficulty setting", which are essentially one achievement if you turn off the vita-chambers.

Pessimitastic:

I think you ment this

Mine would be: "Down boy, down" on COD4. Also just about any on mass effect.

Knight Templar:

I think you ment this

Don't derail this thread with by turning it into a discussion about faulty hardware, thanks.

gears of war single player insane mode definitly, fuck it was hard ;|=]

beat the developers of guitar hero at their own game

"Zombie Chopper"-The Orange Box (Half-Life 2)
A wonderfully dificult achivement, the roof-top battle with the fast-zombies near the end was terrifying. Trying to find a decent projectile up there is impossible. But man, it was worth it...

Also "Copletionist" on Castlevainia:SOTN is just too much. 200.6%!? Come-on!

[ACHTUNG! Minor GTA IV spoiler ahead]

I love how the GTA IV devs decided to give you a five point achievment for watching the starting cutscene.

Yes. It was that goddamn long. I EARNED THE POINTS, DAMNIT!

Press START to Play from the Simpsons Game

Reminds me of the start of Saints' Row, actually, where the only easy achievement (and probably the sole one you get for the first half of the game) is the one you get from learning to bash the punch button within the first five minutes of gameplay.

On a similar note, the achievement for watching the credits on GHII. So...damned...long...

Uh....Daredevil on CoD 4, killing someone while blind by flashbang. Um....Marvel Master on Ultimate Alliance, 150 trivia questions. Power Gamer on Mass Effect, and....The Untouchable Ninja in Naruto.....

haha i got it today

Mile High Club
Sky dive to safety on Veteran difficulty (Call Of Duty 4)

Mongoose Mowdown
Run someone over in a mongoose (Halo 3)

Mile high club and little rocket man, I now hate lawn gnomes.

one free bullet (HL2) is a good one and also i cant remember wat it was called but beating ravenholm with only the gravity gun was awesome too.

but my proudest moment was getting 405G in one go on halo 3:
Campaign complete: normal - 125G
Campaign complete: heroic - 125G
Campaign complete: legendary - 125G
(completed the ark on normal or better) - 30G

ALL IN ONE W00T

Daredevil on CoD4 - Kill someone when you've been flashbang'd
Tactician, Mass Effect - Complete the majority of the game with more damage on shields than health - I thought it'd be really hard, but I got it on first playthrough :S
High Flyer/Base Jumper, Crackdown - Get to the top of the tower, then jump into the water below. Great fun, and awesome view from the top....I might go do it again now...
Most of the time I only get about half the achievements, because I'm neither good enough nor can I be bothered to play online, with the exception of Oblivion, as it has no online mode, and the achievements are *not* hard...They're not very imaginative, but there is a good sense of achievement when you can say that you've completed most of the main quest lines.

The acheivment on guitar hero you get for declining a guitar battle, its worth zero points which seems abit pointless to me.

1) Zombie Chopper
I agree with Barkarr on all points.

2) Defence of the Armament
I laughed, I cried, I wasted all my ammunition trying to blow up Hunter corpses.

3) Ghillies in the Mist
Best mission I've ever played on any FPS. Both tense and great fun.

1) Mile High on Veteran (COD4)took me ages so it was satisfying
2) The Lions passant (Assassins Creed)
3) Have a Dragonache (Viva Piniata) yes childish yes fun

Rainbow Six Vegas 2 - "Come Closer" - Kill 100 enemies using a shotgun with at least 6 players present. had lots killin people to get that
