There are a lot of things to do in a video game and I mean, a lot of things, especially if you go for that one hundred precent.  To do this, however, requires a lot of work to do so and it is pretty hard as well.  I've only managed to get 2 one hundreds precents in any game in the past without cheating.  The games are Spyro: Ripto's Rage and The Simpsons Hit & Run.

How about you guys?  Have you ever gotten a hundred precent in a video game before?

GTA Vice City and all I got was a lousy T-Shirt...literally.  :bouncegiggle:   I actually started to do this with GTA San Andreas but then got fouled up with the location of a few things, particulary the horseshoes.  It became too aggrivating, as many of these games do with this mission, and I went back to blowing up things and killing innocent people.

I don't think I ever have in any game that measures a percentage like that.  Most of the time games that have that system have several extremely dull fetch quests that, to me, are a giant waste of time.  Like the whole 120 hidden object crap.  Or the stars in the Mario games where you have to find hidden coins. 

BORING!

Sorta. I completed all the side quests in The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. The only thing I didn't do was collect enough treasure to buy all the variations of train cars. But I got all the heart containers, caught fifty %*&^ rabbits, and opened all the tracks on the map. Gotta love pointless tasks in Zelda games...   :tongueout:

I've got a couple of platinum trophies, one for Dead Space and the other for Need For Speed:  Shift.  Need For Speed was tremendously time consuming, but I love racing games so I enjoyed it...mostly.  Of course they make you do a bunch of crap that's really anti-racing, like you have to score a certain number of points for "aggressive" driving, which requires you to run each race like a demolition derby at least once.  And then there were all those drifting races where you had to maintain a drift for 4 seconds.   :lookingup:

Dead Space was pretty easy, just play through it a few times until you accumulate everything available, and finish it on the hardest difficulty level.  The only really tough part was getting the "Don't get cocky kid" trophy, named after that scene in Star Wars where Han says that line to Luke after he shoots down a Tie fighter.  That particular part of the game was very much like that laser cannon from Star Wars, except you were shooting at meteorites, and you had to destroy them all before they inflicted too much damage on your ship.  That took me about 75 tries.  It was sort of a fun mini-game, so that wasn't even too bad.

Well on the old Atari 2600 as a kid I overran the top scoring percentage three times in a row on the old Destroyer game but I don't think I'm the only one who accomplished this by any means.

I've got a Platinum Trophy for COD:WAW but if you mean like 100% of items collected and no trophy system then Tomb Raider for XBOX 360.  That first one can't remember the name.  Sadly, they were not creative with ancient artifact placement or time trials. 
Ah, the good old days.

yeah no.

I guess I beat Smash TV on the NES about 5 or 6 times back in the day  :teddyr:  The first time I got to the last level, I was so nervous I had to get a beer out of the fridge to calm my nerves.

I beat Mario 64 100% by getting all the stars in the game.  I really didn't like the control mechanics of Mario..

I beat both castles (normal and upside-down/alternate) of numerous Castlevania games for the PS or GBA.

If 100% could also mean beating a game without dying, I did that with Mega Man 1, 2 and 3.

I don't remember the percentage (it was maybe 120% or something) but I nearly got a perfect score on Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.  There was one little speck on the map that simply would not show up no matter what I tried.

I think I beat Kindom Hearts 100% but I can't recall now.

Jak and daxter(love this game)

Jax ll is one of the most infuriating games Ive ever played so no, didnt get 100%.. I did throw the controller several times though.
Im sure there are others but these I've played through several times and gotten 100%.

I make my kids crazy when I play games because I try to get every single thing. Im playing Batman:Arkham aslyum now and I want everything.   :teddyr:

You're going for every Riddler's Trophy and challenge?!  Have fun!  Here's a quick freebie, there's  trophy in a vent inside of the room where the Joker first escapes.
