1) Grinding all the skills that you basically couldn't level through normal gameplay in MGO2 (MGS4), including ones I knew I'd probably never use like Shield.

2) Getting the Auf Wiedersehen Petrovic trophy in GTA 4. It was a bronze trophy (or 30 gamerscore on XBox) for winning every multiplayer mode, which sounds like a bronze trophy, EXCEPT they made the baffling decision to count every race track as a separate mode, so you end up having to do all of this:

On top of that, if everyone drops a race even after you win, it doesn't count, so trading wins with someone for the races was basically mandatory. Oh, and Rockstar servers could randomly decide not to save a win somewhere, and the only way to hope to figure that out is to check the leaderboard for your win stats for each and every mode on that list individually.

Oh, and I never got max rank in GTA 4 online, so I didn't even Platinum it. I counted it as worse than my MGO2 grinding until they took the MGO2 servers down, making the time I wasted on it doubly pointless.
