15 Disturbing Video Game Achievements You Should Be Ashamed Of

While Rockstar have always prided themselves on giving players a wealth of options to wreak havoc with in their gaming sandboxes, the ability to lasso people in their western epic Red Dead Redemption was probably one of the simplest but most enjoyable features. The ability provided the potential for endless moments of hilarity, that is, until one achievement soured what was once a fun mechanic.

One of the classic and most popular examples when it comes to disturbing achievements, Red Dead Redemption’s “Dastardly” has you hogtying a woman to your horse, riding out to find a train track to place her on and then waiting until an oncoming train comes to turn her into nothing more than a red mist.

It’s a classic cowboy plot; a person in help tied to the train tracks while an oncoming train threatens to be the last thing they’ll ever see, except in Red Dead Redemption there’s no grizzled John Wayne-type to come and save them.
