Unresponsive Achievements/Trophies

[megasdkirby]

Has it ever happen to anyone that, even though the action required to achieve a trophy or achievement is successfully accomplished, the game still refuses to award it?

This has happened to me with Xmen Origins: Wolverine for the Playstation 3. There is a trophy known as "Threading the Needle" (or something like that), that involves the player to go through an "o" ring released during the fight with the Sentinel. I go through the "o" ring several times, using several methods, including:

-going through normally
-going through, but getting hit
-going through my physically diving in (pressing the right thumbstick upwards while entering)
-going through while "attacking" debris

No matter what I do, the game refuses to give me the trophy. This makes me angry as all I need is this and the "complete hard mode" trophy to get the platinum trophy, yet this little issue stands in my way. And no, no cheats were used.

Has anyone suffered, or gone through, a similar event? If so, with what game? How? Why?

If I'm not mistaking one of the older guitar hero's for the 360 has a mutiplayer achievement problem, but don't remember witch one. I know it's not 4 because that achievement mistake had you to hit more note's in a row than needed to get it. If someone know which guitar hero it is let me know.

Zombie Driver (PC) has an achievement where you have to have 25 zombies on fire at the same time. The problem is, all 25 must be ignited -at the same time-, and by the time there's enough zombies on screen to do so, your Flamethrower is at Level 3 -- and that basically INSTAKILLS the zombies.

I still can't get that stupid achievement.

Grid on the 360 has a achievement issue with a drive all cars achievement. Was unachievable at release before being fixed with a patch. But the last Grid patch broke it again and Codemasters has never bothered fixing it.

I'm still puzzled by how nicely laid out the achievements were in Dirt and 1 year later, Grid is completely screwed up with a lot of stupid achievements and a broken one.

Mercenaries 2 for the 360 has several glitched achievements. It's essentially a crap shoot if the achievements decide to pop up or not. Some people have the opposite problem and get all the achievements at once.

EA/Pandemic got pissy that no one bought the game and have never bothered to fix it. It's definitely a F.U. but only to the people who bought the game. It apparently never occurred to the idiots who made such a piece of shit that this was the wrong audience to screw over.

You don't care enough to fix your games? I don't care enough to buy your future games. Pretty simple concept. Pandemic was oblivious of this to the end.
