    Really, some of those aren't hard, just time consuming.

    The Ghost Recon one sounds insane.

    By looking at the games I think seriously 1.0 looks the hardest.

    Brass Balls is one of my favorite achievements... hard, but fun!

    They picked Zombie Genocider instead of 7 day survivor?! Hell *bleep*ing no. Zombie Genocider was just as grind fest, 7 day survivor was just pure hatred towards gamers.

    Also, this list should (imo) have mentioned the 'collect all battle trophies' achievement from Star Ocean IV: The Last Hope. That was ridiculous. Each one was pure luck to get and there were 900 of the friggin things.

    1. The people who made this list neglected to mention that GRAW has three different "get to the top of the leaderboard" achievements, making that game's achievements three times as much bullshit.

    2. It's been over two years and I still haven't got the Mile High Club achievement.

    3. They really should have included Chromehounds on that list. Just read that list and you'll see that it's bullshit. You need to get to level 100 on all six role-types. After over a year of playing, I was only in the 30's range for much of them. Not to mention they had many "being the top in the world during a certain" achievements as well.

    Hah, I laugh at anyone who thought Brass Balls was hard. I Chose The Impossible was hard, but ya'll wouldn't know about that would you? [/troll]

    Seriously though, bad list (and since it's a list it's already bad, so bad bad).

    Most of those achievements are pretty easy. I've done brassballs twice and neither time was hard. Zombie Genocider and Seriously are just grinding and not difficult. Real crap list. Where's Devil May Cry 4, Street Fighter 4 or Star Ocean? games that actually have hard achievements.

    Seriously, don't get me started on Achievements and Trophies. A pointless but irresistable addiction that's fast ruining my gaming enjoyment. Arrgh. Sweet pain.

      Achievemnts are probably the best thing that has ever happened to gaming. Actually gives a reason and way more motivation to 100% games.

        With the state of most games these days, it's not necessarily a good thing to want to 100% most of them, afterall you should be playing for fun, not boringly grinding because you want a little comment on your profile saying how much of a big boy you are.
