Your only chance is if he gets stuck behind a box, like he keeps trying to walk to you but his path finding gets broke and he keeps walking into the box. It's an exploit but its more or less the only way to beat him on insane. Also, make sure to use the torque bow for headshots to clear away the bats (you can't hurt him when the bats circle him). No fancy bit of running around or any other trickery will beat him.
Argh, I know. It's a pain in the rear end. I actually did see a ver interesting video, but I think it got deleted or something, as the guy used the sniper rifle instead of the other gun and was able to kill him that way. It was freakin amazing. I've tried it that way as well, but I can never get the timing right.

Your comment about DKC reminded me of the whole percentage thing on the score; I wonder if anyone has ever gotten 100% w/o having a complete lack of a life in general. Is it just me, or to make sure you get everything 100%, don't you have to go through the entire game cuz it doesn't say which levels are completely done (including secrets) and which ones aren't?

- Tetris DS: Getting 15 consecutive Tetris' to begin a game
I read this and I don't know why, I wanted to see what I could do. I don't have Tetris DS, but I had the NES Tetris on my GP2X and tried it out.

Tonight I got 21 Tetris's in a row from the beginning... then died on lvl 18 with 290,000 points... Tetris is hard with the GP2X thumbstick.

I don't know is this an achievement but I made all the challenges in trauma center for the DS in rank S the last one is almost freaking impossible I had to use two stylus to finish it.
And Ive completed Legend of Mana for the PS1 with every chapter without using a guide. When my friend lend me the guide Ive saw the doppleganger part it required to put the artifacts in specific locations. I know that one was pure luck. And old school.......
Well Ive finished shinobi for the sega master system without dying and finished battletoads for the nes without using a continue.

Very nice Battletoads one! Most NES geeks would be envious. 8

I finally finished Gears of War on insane. Lol, second time I did the battle I was able to do the block glitch easily, which really psyched me out. I need to finish it on casual with my sister tho. It seems harder with only half a screen... :?

Actually Battletoads I used the trickat the intro screen where you press and hold down a,b and start and you get 5 lives. and I didnt use the warp zone only the snake part so I could get all the extra lives I sure need them and only could do it once the queen left me with 3 life bars. Skills get lost thru the years :(

Nah!!!! just out of practice :D

Gee, I don't think I have any notable gaming accomplishments. I usually just scrape by, every time.

I would not call this an achievement. I would call this retarded skill. If anyone has played Castlevania Symphony of the Night then you will know what I am talking about. In Castlevania there is that broken bridge that leads to the fight with Dracula. I went across that bridge without using the specific mist relic that lets you stay as a mist cloud. See if you do not have this relic then when you transform into the mist cloud you are only a cloud for one second. So I would run in wolf form jump towards the other side and then transform into a mist cloud and keep doing that over and over and over. Serously I did that retarded skill throughout the entire first castle. Then I got the Jump relic. That made things a little easier. So did finally fucking finding the other two mist cloud relics. Man I felt like an idiot. I still do.


As for achievements. I don't know. God of War on God mode is easy. It really is. The only things that made me mad were those damn dogs that can go to hell. I think one of my mose notable achievements is completing resident evil directors cut with a knife only.I left so many monsters alive(I managed to kill only one headhunter using a knife). No joke I think I had a time log of like a little more than 20 hours. I died a billion times. It was fun though. Guns? Psshhh. That's for Quakers....

Street Fighter 2 SCE : Sega Genesis

No rounds lost or tied on difficulty level 8. I believe I did it once on SNES Hyperfighting too. So many failed attempts that took a LONG tome each run through. M. Bison's pattern is SOOO easy, but if you faulter just once it can be over. Oh, and Vega is a whore.

Phantasy Star 2 :

The first RPG I ever beat. One of 5 I've ever completed (PS1-4 and FF 3 SNES)

Street Fighter 3 TS : Arcade

Giving some brat at Gameworks the business. Kid talked mad noise for 2 rounds about his favorite move and how he was the best at the arcade and couldn't use it due to fairness. Destroyed him both rounds, selected his favorite character (Ryu) for the rematch and proceeded to defeat him with a deep Super Dragon Punch.....his favorite move. Needless to say his group of followers proceeded to mock him so much I just walked away silent, left him my credit out of sorrow :)

Played Dragon Warrior III GBA so long that I maxed out all stats to 255 on my all female characters lineup. Had all monster metals and I could beat the grand dragon in 4-5 turns I think.
