Getting the Genocide achievement in dead rising just to get a Mega Man blaster..... So much time spent driving around underground.

Totally worth it.

If I liked Frank West, I probably would've beat Dead Rising. But I don't really like Frank and I would rather spend my time killing zombies instead of taking pictures and then killing zombies.

Dude you don't have to take a single picture to finish that game with the true ending, I only took pictures because they gave experience (or pp if you prefer).

I have many and I'm sure we all do but my biggest one would be spending 27.5 hours straight playing just one game and that game would be Fallout: New Vegas...that game was just too addicting for me.
That's nothing. I dumped well over 100 hours into Skyrim when I picked up my copy in the span of a few days. Though, to be honest really I just tore into it and used it as a crutch in a bad period in my life, so I guess that's my excuse... or how I "justify" it. (Had a friend who was excited for the game for years, passed away literally a month before release. I named my character after him.)

Not only owning, but having played and beaten the majority of all US releases on the NES. This includes games such as Barbie and Sesame Street ._.

This is very impressive and sad at the same time. (Also I mean sad in the literal sense not as in what this thread is about.)

I don't really have words for this one all I can say is...why?

Because I obviously love torturing myself.

Apparently so.

i'm mixed between my three achievements.
700 hours spent on Demons Souls
700 hours spent in The Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion
24 hours straight playing Demons Souls and 24 hours straight playing TES: Oblivion
Then there's the fact that I know Demon's Souls like the back of my hand. If you need help without using the wikia, I'm the go to guy! HAHAHA...haha....ha....ohgodwhathaveidonewithmylife....
Anyway, I can possibly draw out a map for every. Single. Area.
1-1 to 1-4, 2-1 to 2-3, etc etc. My obsession with Demons Souls almost got me to the point of looking up the formula for the all the buffs.
Basically, picking up Demons Souls was my saddest gaming achievement. Fantastic game though!

Haha yeah. It's pretty bad. But it's one of my favorite games of all time. Personally I think it's 5 times better than Dark Souls. I could go on a rant as to why it's better. And I can list pros and cons for both titles.
I'm surprised you guys think that's crazy over the 700 hours of Oblivion. That total glitch fest. Did I mention I did EVERY quest in Oblivion? And It took me up to the 300 hour mark to motivate myself to beat the main story?
I feel like I'm trying to hard to like... out sad my achievements XD
Oh and Mr.Holmes to answer your question. I'VE DONE EVERYTHING!
