I'll play fallout 4 on survival difficulty because I love the added challenge of needs management, no autosave/fast travel, and illness, but if the game just nerfs you and buffs enemies with no other new things, I've just never cared about playing on high difficulties.

The trophy for beating Mass Effect 2 on insanity. I did actually do this one, and all I have to say is: insanity is a fitting name, because it absolutely was. 3. God of War (2018) Beating the Valkyries on Give Me God of War difficulty. I couldn’t even finish the first area on that difficulty. 🤣 4. The platinum trophy for Dirt Rally. (Not Rally 2.0) This is the hardest racing game I’ve ever played. It’s very sim-heavy, and it’s almost impossible to drive well on a controller. You need a wheel to even have a chance of making any progress. It might actually be easier to rally race in real life!! 5. All gold medals for all the licenses in Gran Turismo 6. Most all them are doable with practice, but there are two tests in the super license that are incredibly strict. S4 & S5 You must drive perfectly on S4, because the time is so tight. Then for S5 the time isn’t the problem, it’s just controlling your incredibly heavy Bugatti Veyron so it stays on track. It’s a long course and if a single pixel of your car touches the grass or a wall, you instantly fail and have to start over from the beginning. Another game where a wheel is almost a requirement.

In the old Game Cube version, of call of duty. You unlocked really awesome cheats. Though, later I found out,that I didn’t have to play the entire story to unlock the cheats. Just the last level on the hardest difficulty. Which made me realize, I didn’t have to go nuts. But hey. I earned those things. The cheats were both hilarious and great. One of the cheats shrank both enemies and friends, while making others huge too. It was great. Plus, their hit boxes either shrank or increased with them. I miss back when Games were more creative, and didn’t need patches.

In Halo 3 getting the Recon helmet or Hayabusa in flames helmet were the thoughest challenges in the game, when I managed to get the Recon I was so happy, you had to beat a rival team composed by devs, there were other ways non related to the game but I did it the normal way, and it wasnt easy they were good and the result was so close, never got Hayabusa in flames nor remember how to obtain it but I bwlieve it was even harder to get. Such good memories with the Halo saga, that was like more than ten years ago, I was known to be the best at the game in my school and many times after studying we went and play in xbox locals.

The Katana requirements you mentioned in Halo 3 are incorrect. When they added more achievements, all you need to do now is unlock at least 49 achievements and have at least 1000gs from them. It was significantly easier to get after the map packs and new achievements. The one that’s borderline impossible now was the Recon armor in Halo 3 because of the weird community achievements.

"Super" mode skins in any Devil May Cry game by beating all the difficulty modes. One of which puts the enemies at the second to highest difficulty (but still gives them an "enrage timer" devil trigger) and you also die in one hit.
