10
Game: The Bigs
Achievement: 250,000 Points
-Get 250,000 points in Home Run Pinball.

The home run derby in this game is amazing. Instead of putting you in a park where you ho hum hammer out a few your in times square hitting balls at giant neon lights collection power ups and basically fucking some shit up.

9
Game: Crackdown
Achievement: Airtime Assassin
-Shoot and kill 5 gang members in a single jump (while airborne)

Keep in mind these kills are all in the same jump. There's something magical about a game where you can leap tall buildings and cap five chuckle heads in the face in a single bound.

8
Game: Battlefield. Bad Company
Achievement: Forest Ranger
-Knocked down 1000 trees

Dale: Hey Mike I am going to get this Forest Ranger achievement
Mike: WHAT A THOUSAND TREES THAT WILL TAKE FOREVER.
next day
Dale: Oh i got that achievement... yeah I got bored and started AA gunning trees

7
Game: Soul Caliber 4
Achievement: Numeric God
-The last two numbers of total play time and remaining time in a victorious battle were the same.

Sooooo yeah that happened.

6
Game: Quantum of solace
Achievement: Time to face gravity
-In White’s Estate, open the cellar door with one shot.

The way to get this achievement is head shot a guy on a balcony. His corpse will then fall over the railing through a cellar door. Pretty good achievement to get with a well placed shot but think of how good it would feel if you ran around a corner with an Uzi and just shot a hail of bullets at a guy and the first shot just happened to catch him in the face.

5
Game: Too Human
Achievement: Feeder of Ravens
-Kill 10,000 enemies.

You know a game is fucking good when you have killed 10,000 enemies and are still playing it.

4
Game: Burnout Paradise
Achievement: Parallel Park
-Power Park achieved with a 100% rating

The absolute best part about this achievement is how I got it. On the second try. Yeah yeah yeah it might have been a fluke but I beat Mike so thats all that matters.

3
Game: Spider-Man Web of Shadows
Achievement: Id
-Spent time with Black Cat

"Spent Time with" is code for had sex with. Even if the developers didn't intend it to mean that I am extrapolating that meaning. I made Peter Parker go bad and Have sex with one of the hottest female comic characters ever thats awesome. Now more crybaby little kid Spider-bitch I made him truly a Spider-Man.

1 a
Game: Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga
Achievement: Let the Wookiee win
-Pull 25 arms off other characters.

1 b
Game: Lego Star Wars The Complete Saga
Achievement: Follower of Fashion
-Wear Every Hat.

Lego Star Wars got first and second place because these two achievements are hilarious on their own but looked at side by side they are Epic. You have Pretty much the toughest BA achievement ever which sees you ripping guys arms off that contrasted against the a typical femme achievement of wearing all the hats in the game makes it the clear out and front winner.
