Uncharted 2. I try to platinum all my games, but I usually only do single player trophies. Uncharted 2 had easy enough MP ones though. Here's hoping U3 follows the trend.
Working on FFXIII now, slowly but surely. I play while listening the bombcast.
PS3 would be Infamous 2 and Sly 1. Xbox would be awhile ago...Majin, I think. Unless you count getting the latest Mass Effect 2 DLC, then it would be that.
I only ever 'completed' one game. I got the full score on Batman Arkham Asylum. It's the only game that's built in a way to actually motivate me to do so. There was nothing arbitrary about it. Usually, achievements are full of silly busy work. I'm not OCD about achievements.
I chose to spend the bulk of my gaming time on competitive online multiplayer or MMO.
The most recent for me is Shadows of the Damned. And the difficulty achievements don't stack. I didn't mind though. It was still fun. I'll get around to the "Satanic Hell" difficulty at some point.
Edited: I only really go achievement hunting for games I love. And it's mostly only to give me something to do on subsequent runs. If it wasn't fun, I wouldn't do it.
I've never bothered. I've come close before, but there's always at least one trophy or achievement that's too much of a pain in the ass for me to want to get. Seems like most games I want to complete 100% don't have trophies too.
Bioshock. Hard Mode was surprisingly easy, as was not using Vita Chambers. I died no more than 10 times throughout the entire game.
That's the only retail game I ever got 1000/1000 in, but then they upped the total to 1100 with that damn extra achievement a couple months later. I'll probably get around to playing through it a third time someday just to get the full points.

Oh, so the Brass Balls achievement was added in later? I was wondering why the game had a total score of 1100.
It's really a breeze if you just save after every encounter and use the environment/other enemies to deal damage to Big Daddies before taking them on.
My only platinum is Borderlands. Didn't take much effort at all, just a small amount of grinding at the end to reach level 50 but even that was barely anything.
I'm legitimately trying to platinum Demon Soul's right now to get pumped up for Dark Souls :o It's actually not the impossible task I once assumed it would be, but it definitely will be a big time commitment to finish.
I really wanted the Lord of Shadow S rank but i just couldn't beat that timed challenge in the library.
You mean the place with the whole "Mirror Puzzle " thing? Its not that hard once you know the drill. Just load both Dark and Light magic, and you should be able to finish it. If not, I believe there are tutorials on Youtube. I just took a pen and paper, wrote down the layout of the level, and what I could and could not skip as far as enemies go. There is one suit of armor with the last mirror, that you will need to defeat. Ultimate Light should be enough to deal with it as you will be using Dark for quick moving of the mirrors.
I haven't achieved a full score on any game. Sometimes I will go in to a game thinking I will, and then DLC is released and it completely ruins my chances : /
Infamous 2, it was easy and enjoyable to do. Gone are my days of doing 6 playthroughs for a shiny icon, getting platinum on New Vegas broke me, never again.
Yup. I really liked how they even gave you an end-game power to have any few remaining blast-shards to ding on the edge of the map so you were assured to get them all. It's a feature I sorely wish was in inFAMOUS 1... I only need two blast-shards, then I'm done! But I just can't find the buggers.
But I stopped doing it. I also s-ranked Dead Space 2 and then I thought "Why do I do this?"
I just don't care about achievements anymore, I'd like an option to turn off achievements and trophy notifications while retaining the ability to see message/friend pop-ups.
@RedDragon123: the last retail game i got an S- rank in is oblivion but ive had a few games over 1000g since then mass effect 2, bad company 2 and ive S-ranked quite a few arcade titles
