The start of this blog has been heavy, so here’s something lighter to spark a bit of discussion: the Top 10 most time chewing achievements I’ve come across. These are only the ones I know of, feel free to let me know what I’m missing.
My Top 10 Time Chewing Achievements
1) Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter – World Champion
I’ve never quite conquered this one. All it requires is for you to reach the top of the Ghost Recon leaderboard. Yes, that means you have to be the best in the world at this game. Settle in, grab a bucket of coffee, I’ll see you in a year-or-two…
2) Dead Rising – Seven Day Survivor
Great game and a lot of fun to play, but I’m not sure I want to try and play the 14 hours (7 days of in-game time) straight needed to get this achievement.
3) Gears of War 2 – Seriously 2.0
All this one takes is killing 100,000 enemies. That’s a lot of gas for the chainsaw.
4) Fifa 09 – The Peterson
Although many would have racked up the 50 hours gametime for this achievement just from normal play, I’m awarding this achievement such a high spot because you only get 1 achievement point for it. If all achievements were based on this logic you’d have to play 50,000 hours to get all the achievements in a game. That’s nearly six years of continuous play.
5) Half-Life 2 – Little Rocket Man
Valve are cruel. All you need for this one is to carry a garden gnome for nearly all of the game. What do you do with the gnome at the end of this ordeal? Place him in a rocket and blast him into space.
6) GTA IV – Liberty City
Hit the gas Niko, you’ve got 30 hours to complete GTA IV. Hate to miss it by a few minutes…
7) Left 4 Dead – What are you Trying to Prove?
Finish all the campaigns on expert? The game’s hard enough as it is, especially with my glory hog co-op friends who wanna go it alone.
8) F.E.A.R – Exterminator
Kill every enemy in the game, you say? Sounds doable except for the fact that enemies like to vanish and run away.
9) Assassin’s Creed II – In Memory of Petruccio
Collect 100 feathers to honour the memory of your younger brother? What happened to just lighting a candle?
10) Command and Conquer 3 – Welcome to 2047
Achievement: Press the A button 2047 times. Just stupid. Also, bad for RSI and arthritis sufferers.
