Hardest xbox 360 games 2011

While the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have, as a whole, proven to be popular hits, this particular DLC-included pack was short-lived, and thus, quite rare. The DLC content found on this copy was soon discontinued separately on the XBL marketplace, making this the only way to obtain these extra characters in physical form.

On top of this, A "Platinum Hits" rendition of the game was cranked out mere months after this edition, further rendering it into the realm of obscurity. Much like with Spyro , this is the type of game that's simply more popular and abundant on Sony consoles. Considering the console's lack of success in Japan and the Xbox market's lack of taste in JRPGs as a whole, it's easy to see why even the baseline version of ToV would have a limited printing on the But bump it up to the Special Edition , which includes a soundtrack CD?

We're talking a pretty rare package of discs. As far as limited edition packages go, 2K Games really pulled out all the stops. This limited-run Songbird Edition includes a 9.

All you pretty much have to do is take a look at this game's heavy Japanese themes and somewhat raunchy content to understand why this limited edition bundle was never printed en masse. Take the relatively limited appeal of a JRPG like Vesperia and tack on tons of scantily-clad anime women, and you've got this obscure game.

Add the fact that this bundle was only available for preorder, and you've got yourself a rare Xbox artifact.

The limited edition doesn't just include a soundtrack, but also a rather "curvy" mousepad outlining a lead character's breasts, and a pillowcase prominently featuring another. The Fallout series is one that's been quite popular on Xbox consoles since Bethesda transformed the strategy franchise into a WRPG epic.

Yet, this exclusive Survival Edition makes for a pretty rare and expensive find - largely because of the sheer detail and quantity of the collectibles included.

You've also got the more recent hyped release of Fallout 4 further adding to the obscurity of this package. You get a life-size replica of the famed Pip-Boy , in addition to all the bells and whistles featured in the Collector's Edition. This "collector's edition" of the popular anime, DragonBall Z , is definitely appropriately titled, given its extreme scarcity.

This item was limited to the PAL market, and was, in fact, exclusive to the Australian market, until being quietly released through the retailer Zavvi in the UK. It is said that only about 10, copies of this bundle, which includes a neat action figure of Super Saiyan Gohan, were ever produced.

All you have to do is defeat the Absolute Conqueror. Who has 1,, HP. And considering the poor levelling up mechanic, you will be under levelled. In the early days following its release, you had to pass 24 tracks the hardest ones, naturally with no faults at all.

You can take 30 minutes on each stage, but no faults allowed. The achievement did get patched however to become…slightly less impossible; you now only have to beat 20 tracks, but they are still fiendishly tricky to beat. Under the attractive sheen however, lies one hell of a difficult and mind bending game. Getting one black pearl a combination of six white stars, which are themselves formed by surrounding one piece with six similarly coloured pieces is hard enough for most players, getting six of the damn things and then manoeuvring them into place is a nightmare.

I am pretty bad at Hexic, and the thought of going after this achievement terrifies me. A genuine test of skill, patience and luck, but nothing compared to the winner….

Here it is; undoubtedly the most ridiculous and ball-breaking achievement to ever grace an Xbox game disk. You have to literally become the best player of Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter in the world by getting to the top of the universal leaderboard.

I simply do not think that this can be done any more; the game has been out for five years, so in order to get to the top by starting now you would have to be not only playing but winning convincingly non-stop…forever. I would hazard a guess that apart from the lucky few who participated in the first few games of Ghost Recon and thereby automatically got near the top of the leaderboards, only about 5 people have ever done this. And that makes it more than worthy of being declared the hardest achievement ever.

What do you make of this list? I can only imagine how difficult that Trials HD achievement is, too.
