The Best Achievements And Trophies Of 2015

Whether you love them, hate them, or forget they exist until they pop on your screen and interrupt your game, achievements and trophies are a (literally) required feature of all PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Steam games. I fall into the love camp, and these are some of my favorites from 2015.

The achievements and trophies I find most interesting aren't the ones that mark your progress in a storyline or reward you for attaining a certain number of headshots. I like the ones that force you to think outside of the normal functions of the game or reward you for doing something weird.

Follow the links to see 2011, 2012, 2013, best achievements and trophies.

Rise of the Tomb Raider
Lara's latest adventure had more off-the-wall achievements than the 2013 reboot. Many of the weirder ones were food related, but there is a difficult one to pull off that required Lara to dive headfirst into a well.

Rotisserie - Shoot a chicken out of the air with a fire arrow.
For My Next Trick... - Dive into a well.
Bacon! - Kill a razorback boar using a Molotov cocktail.

Fallout 4
The prankster achievement is always a good one, and I appreciate the strange one that requires you to run the bases of Diamond City. The touchdown achievement also requires your death at the hand of a Super Mutant Suicider.

Prankster's Return - Placed A Grenade Or Mine While Pickpocketing.
Homerun! - Get a Homerun.
Touchdown! - Get a Touchdown.

Just Cause 3
Any opportunity a game gives you to quietly sing Elton John's 1972 classic to yourself while playing is a good achievement. Also, I like that it rewards you for making people fly.

My Little Rocket Man - Tether an enemy to a launched gas cannister. Adeo, amico!
You're Outta Here! - Plant a Booster Explosive on an enemy soldier. Then send them flying.

Mortal Kombat X
Most of Mortal Kombat X's achievements are related to doing certain things a certain number of times, so I like that this one stands out as being particularly weird.

Blanche Advantage - Hit someone with the old lady Level Interaction.
