What gaming accomplishments are you most proud of?

[Kamako]

Bonus points if you have some type of evidence to prove it.

Can be trophies, achievements, community challenges or personal challenges. Heck, it could even be for the length of time you've gone without playing a videogame.

One of the first that comes to mind for me is attaining BIG BOSS rank on MGS1 on original hardware. It was a gruelling process, but well worth the outcome. I have since done it again on PS4 with the release of the MGS Master Collection.

Arcade 1cc's are always a nice feather in one's hat. I've done a handful like Metal Slugs 1/2/X/3, Dodonpachi, GunBird, Final Fight, Gradius 2, and some more.

I've also managed to win some matches against some big names in the Fighting Game Community (In mostly casual settings admittedly) and was a regional champ at MK9 and UMvC3 years ago.

I've completed Metal Slug 3 and it only took me unlimited continues. I have no idea how that could be done in 9, let alone 1.

Kudos!

Completing the challenge area in The Witness. It's randomized so you can't cheese it, and it's one of very few timed things in the game so you have to do everything quick.

Beating Disgaea D2 Baal, its just a big grind but it felt nice to finally clear it

I know first-hand how solid that challenge is. Well done :D
I've been trying to slowly find all the environmental puzzles on a fresh save. I think I have roughly 80 left to get out of a possible ~500.
The Witness is a superb game

Hmm... I remember beating MGR and the first Bayonetta on the highest difficulty level while getting Pure Platinum/S-Rank in every mission. That was definitely really challenging for me.

Either that or beating BoI as The Lost before they gave it Holy Mantle as its starting item. Though I did cheese that run something fierce if memory serves.

Congrats! Don't you have to beat this guy like 8+ times before you can fight his true form? Idk I seem to recall a couple of close friends playing one of the Disgaea and telling me something along those lines

Dunno if I'd call it an achievement since it technically wasn't me who got it, but a person I knew on a Discord server gave me a file of eXceed 2nd Vampire, which I couldn't find anywhere else on the net, so I put it on Internet Archive. eXceed 2nd Vampire is not to be confused with eXceed 2nd Vampire REX as that game was localised and is a remaster.

I thoroughly enjoyed MGR. It took me so long to get to grips the block mechanic though ? I beat it on Hard and that was tough enough. I remember the VR missions being hell as well. I still need to play Bayonetta.

Brother's a huge BoI fan. I should try more rouge likes.

Nice work ?

more or less, in this you are able to simply pick the difficulty with a bar in the "cheat shop" menu, its also the hardest version of the fight (you fight him as an optional boss in each game)

Brb whilst I look up gameplay of this and instantly lose the player character amidst an ocean of projectiles

Anytime I was able to connect an angled green shell shot in Super Mario Kart Battle Mode I felt like a King.

Avatar checks out, because you're the Champ!

 

[Kid Dynamite]

Well, this is embarrassing. lol

I didn't see that it said gaming accomplishments. Read it too fast. The gaming accomplishment I'm most proud of was beating the Emerald and Ruby Weapons from FF7.

 

[Kamako]

Both bosses are ridiculously tough, but Emerald is absolutely nails. Great job ??

Getting 4 other people to play with me the online modes of Resident Evil Operation Raccoon City on PS3, beating the Goddess in NG 3 Razor Edge and Getting the platinum in DMC 2 and 3.

 

[freebie#47]

Defeating a difficult boss or game. AND I mean Sans Undertale level difficulty. I broke my controller cause of him, but was worth it.

 

[King Koopa's iconKing Koopa]

Platinuming Demons Souls (PS3), Bloodborne, Dark Souls 1-3, and Elden Ring. I still need to buy the Demons Souls remake to platinum it.

A small price to pay for ultimate victory!

Getting the platinum in DMC 2

I'm both impressed and frightened.

DMC 3's platinum....hoooo Arkham was tough as hell on DMD. And don't get me started on the chess board or Vergil's final fight. Well played ?

Perseverance!!
Have you played Deltarune or the free fan game Undertale Yellow? I think you'd dig 'em

I'm almost there! I still need to get my copy of DkS1 back off a mate to get the plat, and then I've got the collection!
Well, I plat'd PS5 remake of Demon's Souls as I never owned a PS3 but still!
Nicely done!
what was the hardest and why is it DkS2 SotFS? ;)

That game was such a beautiful mess. I genuinely wish that the PC version wasn't still unplayable (last time I checked at least) due to that "Games for Windows Live" error like a lot of other lesser Capcom games as well.

The only thing that comes to my head right now is running Ninja Gaiden Black challenge runs back in the day, stuff like beating the game with only specific weapons on Mentor. I did the Lunar, dabilahro, flails, and I think I probably had to have done the dragon sword too of course. Could never beat Master Ninja difficulty due to the bullshit second Alma fight, though.
