Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Parkersburg, West Virginia | Favorite Achievement So I was reading in my newest OXM and there was an article about tough achievements to receive and tips on how to get them. I had one of the achievements on the list which is my Frank the pimp achievement on Dead Rising which is one my proudest achievements and one of the last achievements I received on Dead Rising before it burned out my first 360. After reading the article I began thinking about which achievements I have that are my favorite since some require a little more effort to unlock. I thought I would spur the conversation to see which achievements others have that are their favorites. Mine are of course Frank the Pimp on Dead Rising, Close Quarter Combatant (cant fire a round on a mission) for Call of Duty 3, and my GRAW achievement for beating the second level on hard because of the stupid helicopter shooting at the beginning lol. | |

For sentimentality, I'd go with the 80% complete Achievement I just got on Lego Star Wars, because I've done entirely in co-op with my son, and it's been a blast to do with him. Looking forward to 100% completion on that game.
For sheer pride in gaming, finishing COD2 on Veteran was the hardest achievement I've done, so I'm most proud of that.
The most fun I've had overall getting achievements is in Crackdown. It just seems to have the perfect blend.
What I want the most? Hmmm... right now I'd like to go back and get some more of the Lost Planet ones. I really don't have a specific one I'm eyeballing though... | |

| It would be a tie between 1,000,000 in Geometry Wars and COD2 on Veteran, I still remember climbing the hill in COD2! | |

|  The CQC achievement in CoD3 was fun. But, I really loved the "Wreak havoc in 60-second increments" achievement in Crackdown. | |

| any achievement I have is my favorite. Some of the ones I got, such as completing GUN on hardcore, was so annoying hard, that getting was a releif, not a some sense of accomplishment. I did do most of GRAW hard myself. I think they last four I cheated on, but I just wanted to get it done, and I hadn't played it in while anyway. | |

You basically have to start from the beginning, rescue four females and find a safe place like a bathroom for them to hide in while you rescue others. Kill all the male scoop info you get as soon as you can and then wait for the jo the cop scoop in the wonderland plaza on the second day and rescue the 4 other females she has hostage and boom you have both frank the pimp and tour guide. The key is to keep your ladies in safe places while your waiting for scoop info since they have terrible AI.
I applaud you for having the achievment for beating 1 player rainbow six on realistic. It makes you deserving of the tag Lord Sam  I threw my controller through the wall just getting the game beat on regular. If it wasnt for having to guard damn jung while he was on the computers it would have made it easier lol. | |

| Crank, not sure if you are talking about the surviving 1,000,000 achievement or simply just achieving 1,000,000. If it is the surviving, add me to that list! Still the best feeling accomplishment once I unlocked that one! | |

| Jon - I wish, just getting a million was hard enough. Actually I got robbed because my high score should be 1,700,000 but after that game it did not update my high score for some reason.
I cannot even get the survive 500,000 achievement. Steaming grits owns us at over 3 million though. | |
