Or in other words, games to never put on my GamerTag.
If you made another account, why not? Lol
The majority of these games are games I wouldn't play anyways. The exceptions being Sekiro (which is stated as one of the easier ones), XCOM, which I may play on my "just for fun" account, Outlast 2, Halo MCC, and Wolfenstein 2 (which originally turned me off after launch).

Halo is probably doable, but would be a huge time sink and a pain in the ass. Also not really a big Halo fan overall.

Never tried XCOM and now probably won't. The style of gameplay also doesn't do it for me.

And Outlast 2 sounds too difficult for an average gamer like myself.

I was particularly proud of getting
The Beyond the Impossible achievement in Rare Replay worth 363 pointsBattletoads: Complete a loop of Turbo Tunnel Infinite.

There's no easy way to do it, you literally just have to "git gud".

Also from Rare Replay
The Stampers Forever achievement in Rare Replay worth 3574 pointsEarn the most coveted title in the game!
Kudos to you for those. Both of them.

I need to get back to rare replay, but there's a lot of stuff I just can't bring myself to play again for the completion.

You've obviously never played Pinball FX2 then. And yes, I'm one of only 8 that have completed the entire game.

The Perfectionist achievement in Pinball FX2 worth 7523 pointsComplete all the main modes in a single game on the Sorcerer's Lair table! (Single player only)
I came here to eat donuts and drink coffee... and I'm all out of donuts.

Where is "Way of the Master Ninja"
And "Master Ninja of Missions" from Ninja Gaiden 2?

Those ones are brutal, even if your are good or decent at the game you are still gonna die and retry alot.

The Green Day one is even harder because you have to actually listen to Green Day while going for it.

You just have to copy and paste the link of the achievement guide page and it happens automatically.

I haven’t seen Kyurinaga’s Revenge posted anywhere in the comments, but this one definitely would qualify for this list:

The Green Inferno achievement in Kyurinaga's Revenge worth 877 pointsFinish the game in Inferno mode

Shoutouts to Awoo’s incredibly detailed guide for an achievement that only one other person has ever obtained. I’m going to try to go for this, and I definitely would have never even tried if the guide didn’t exist.
Cheers mate, let’s give it a go. Hardest achievement goes to.

The The Flow of Combat I achievement in Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Burning Earth worth 150 pointsAchieve a Hit Counter of 10

A few more difficult achievements I've done I feel are worth mentioning.

The I’ve been to hell and back achievement in Lichtspeer: Double Speer Edition worth 1730 pointsget UBER ratings for all levels on rage quit difficulty

I thought Lichtspeer was fun, but Rage Quit+ is a perfect title for this difficulty mode.
.
It made me rage quit playing with stick drift 😂😭
It's hard enough without the stick drift 😅

Is there a way to search the hardest achievement you have unlocked?
You can open your achievements list and order by ratio. Note that some achievements have big ratios because they require gridding, not because there are hard.

Not very accurate list but still acceptable.
I'd say the same about your list, except the last bit.

Why are there no Overwatch achievements in here or the online list?
Technically you can boost them but you never stated that can’t be a criteria. But some of those are just absolutely ridiculous to get the normal way - I know cuz I never boosted them.

If that's the case you could include a few online achievements, e.g. 2 for one in halo 3. However, these require a lot of luck anyway.

Dude this is not a list those are just few samples from my stuff.

You can always search by TA ratio for achievements on TA to see the real list of nightmare.
There is no impossible achievement if you put all your skills on it !!!
