I killed a Mechtoid with overwatch fire from six or so assault rifle wielding base defenders and backup soldiers on the turn it dropped in. Invade my Motherfucking base and I will throw a wall of lead at you.

XCOM Enemy Within

[Akura]

Somehow broke the AI:Normal. Playing on Winter Duel, an east-west map with four prominent ridges, two for the start points, and two in between. The middle two ridges create a central canyon and allow both players to build walls of guns on top, though T2 turrets can potentially hit the other ridge. AI:Normal has a tendency to rush attack right at the start, and sends in engineers to claim any metal nodes after them. One of these nodes is on their forward ridge.

After cleaning up the opening attack, I sent two(at first) of those infantry bots to a corner under the ridge, where they ineffectively fired at an extractor. This drew the attention of nearly every single tank the AI built, yet they kept parking in a place where they could not hit the bots, and therefore never destroyed them(one was, I don't know how). Whilst they were banging their head against the proverbial wall with those bots, I was fortifying my ridge with guns, as well as artillery emplacements that could hit their base. Had they properly attacked, they probably would have won.

Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.

Actually managed to win a round.  Not a match, just a round.  Although it ended up being a pretty even game.

Street Fighter 3rd Strike (30th Anniversary Collection)

Boy do I suck at street fighter.  I tried five recently and it took like 50 matches before securing a win.

Playing fighting games online is always painful.  An ever increasing number of weak players get pushed out of the playerbase until its just a small collection of expert players (usually the ones with a good internet connection as well).

Was up 1-0, but the dwarves were smashing towards my end zone - literally smashing, at one point almost my entire team was on the ground at the end of my turn. I get lucky, my ogre rolls a mutual knockdown on the ball carrier, a thrower picks it up, and after clearing room for both the thrower and intended receiver to get clear, I send it halfway across the field... and drop it.

The dwarves ignore it; there's not enough time left to run it back anyway. After breaking a few tackles, my intended receiver gets it anyway, and runs towards the end zone, too fast for the dwarves to even try to chase. Open up the final turn by walking right in for the touchdown, no better way to give a flying middle finger than to using the last turn to increase your lead on a shutout.

Blood Bowl 2. I swear the game is cheating on dice rolls, on top of the actual cheating that happens in game.

After some 30 or so attempts finally managed to beat the simulated Uber Elder fight. Granted, this is probably the easiest version of this build (as in, the best items at lvl100 and all the bells and whistles it could have), still, the toughest fight in the game to date but it's pure mechanics once you're past the gear check, glad to know I could do it if I ever put in the time needed to actually get to it :V

POE Uber Elder simulator

Discovered the wonders of gorillaspam, leading to my first two (as far as I can remember) "wins" - I'm playing an old alpha version where there were only six stages to play through, so that isn't too impressive, haha.

Streets of Rogue

I'm kinda keen to pick up the current game at some point. Gotta be at least somewhat budget-conscious at the moment, though, unfortunately.

Played my first online match as Zangief since I like grappler characters. The guy ragequit.

Street Fighter V

Even though the netcode isn't quite as good, and half the characters are DLC, the mechanics of the game are WAY less stupid than USFIV, and best of all, there are people to play with who aren't NEETs who have spend ten thousand hours in the game.

I mained FANG in that one.  I liked his silly antics.  I like watching grappler characters but I suck at the required 180-360 motions.

Was attacking a city some bandits stole from me. They had 6 units to my one. My one was just an elite griphon rider. However, being a Warlord, I had soooo many buffing spells at my disposal. In the end he was onesotting all the units because I gave him a total of +11 melee damage, when he started at 15.

Age of Wonders 3.

[Akura]

Took me a few dozen attempts, but I got the 5-star score for the first available wingsuit challenge - that's after watching a walkthrough video where the comments were saying the methods used in the video were only possible via hacks, due to stalling at the final goal.

Note: I didn't use hacks or even do the the same moves as the video. What people didn't seem to realize is that you can use your grapple while wingsuiting to give yourself a boost. Just drop the grapple almost immediately unless you like making out with rocks at high velocity.

Beat the trial of the fool on my first try.

Hollow Knight

That driving challenge that was giving me trouble? Beat it in one go, with a few seconds to spare for a 5-star rating. No idea how that happened, but I did restart the challenge just to quit it and steal the car(that's a thing you can do).

Just Cause 3.

EDIT: Just did a wingsuit challenge, not sure how far back the leaderboard records go, but I beat the top score by 47 points.

I somehow managed to beat and get an A on Monsoon without parrying.

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance.

[IronTomato]

Played my first ranked match on Super Turbo, and of course, the guy I was fighting picked Akuma, who is widely known for being, far and beyond, the most overpowered character in ST. I attempted to mimic the method he used to select Akuma, so that we could fight on even terms, but ended up running out of time and picking Cammy, a character I have never used. Like every other Akuma player he spent the entire match jumping backwards and spamming air fireballs, but somehow I managed to win both rounds regardless.

Super Street Fighter II Turbo (in the 30th Anniversary Collection)

At the very least, they had the decency to allow you to see which character your opponent is selecting, which helps to alleviate this kind of bullshit.
