Long Awaited Triumphant Moments

[RainaXainne]

We have all had them at least once. I'm talking about that one part of that one game that took sooooooooooooooo many tries to complete. Maybe you were trying the game on insane mode, maybe you couldn't figure out a trick. Post it here!

I am replaying Mass Effect 2, so I can update my imported information for the next game. My first play through I just started with the random game play, so I could just see how the game was. There is this point where two characters get in a fight. If you don't accumulate the right amount of good or bad points, (in my case I was going Paragon.) I got the extra option to settle the fight and keep both of them loyal. I then started a new game that was from an imported profile and happened upon the same instance. I failed miserably and haven't been able to figure out what the heck I need to do to get it right.

I just now got it lol. Yay for me!

The first thing that comes to mind is from Armored Core: Project Phantasma back on PS1. I'd fought the final boss, Phantasma, a ton of times, but got wiped out every time. I eventually was able to advance far enough in the Arena (the battle with Phantasma is a mission) that I was awarded with some new weapons, namely, some large grenade firing arms, and was finely able to take him down.

Another is from Sonic 2, back on Sega. I'd been able to get to the final level and defeat the first mech, but couldn't even touch Robotnick's final machine. Eventually, technology progressed, and I moved on to different video games, figuring I'd never get the oppurtunity to finish the game. However, a few years ago, I came across a Sonic collection for the DS including Sonic 2, and was finally able to take him out.

Finishing the Pokedex in my Daimond version.

Dark Souls is perfect for these. The game really makes you work for your victories and that makes them that much sweeter.

Fighting Kai Leng on Insanity in Mass Effect 3, I lost count of how many times I died during that battle, but when I finally got him it felt oh so good.

I'm still trying to 1000/1000 Tales of Vesperia, I haven't 1000'd a game before(well, one that took effort) and really want my first one to be from a long *** game.

The Pit of 100 Trails in the Thousand Year Door. Hoping that Sticker Star has the pit as well, with the sticker mechanic, it looks like it will be even harder.

Insane difficulty is not the title of the hardest difficulty level in either Call of Duty or Halo. They are Veteran and Legendary respectively. Insane difficulty is from Gears of War. C'mon, surely you read what difficulty level it was on when you were selecting it right?

[ImAnOKIE12]

Yes I did, but I hadn't played them in awhile since I beat it. I forgot what they were. So when something like that happens its "Insane mode" and what's funny, is ive never played gears of war.

[Born Better]

Beating Gears of War 3 on insane.
Beating the pokemon league on Silver back when I was 8.

[Cometstarlight]

Beating Demise in Skyward Sword and finally seeing Zelda, awake, alive, happy, and free; never to have to fear Ghirahim or Demise again....
Needless to say, I felt accomplished

[The Admiral]

Doing anything in Ecco the Dolphin Most of Ecco the Dolphin. Beating Matthias in Armored Core 2. Completing a legitimate collection of all 649 species in Pokemon White. Beating Lemmings (probably kind of a record here, in that this took me about fifteen years to do! Not continuously, mind you.). Beating any Commander Keen game. Beating any roguelike. Beating Ozma. I imagine beating Penance will be similar if/when I get a version of FF10 where I can do that. (Here's hoping, regarding that HD remake...)

[PsychicPsycho]

Beating Gears of War 3 on insane.

Beating RAAM on Insane. I had to resort to the block trick the first time. It bugged me for a while, so after I finished Gears 2 I went back and finally was able to get him without it.

Beating Matthias in Armored Core 2.

I'm hoping to add getting an SS rank on an Armored Core game as a long awaited accomplishment pretty soon. I've got 2 hard missions left on For Answer (Defeat Unknown Next + No Count, and Occupation of Arteria Carpals) that are driving me crazy.
