Best of Achievement Hunter - 2017

Take a look back at the very best of Achievement Hunter in 2017.
Edited by: Kyle Moran
Those good old Achievement Hunter fellows have had quite the memorable year for themselves. Between all the Sky Factory Innovations/Shenanigans, the countless number of Gmod Betrayals, the GTA V Sprunks n' Bips, the numerous failed attempts to capture Bigfoot, and the constant threat of murder by Jason in Friday the 13th, AH has proven time and time again to be a dysfunctional albeit entertaining bunch of goofy idiots. And that's why we love 'em. This is the Best of Achievement Hunter 2017!

It's honestly my favorite when Micheal says "That's fucking funny" instead of laughing

[@boonkii]

frrrr 💀💀

[@RadarMunn]

This was probably the year they seemed to be having the most fun making content

[@TheUnspokenKibbles]

The year of Gitting Gud in Siege, of Sky Factory, of Saving Private Mikey. Of rocket bikes, transformers, and ridiculously long Mario Parties. Thanks for a great year, everyone, let's do it all again soon.

[@Wabajak13]

For 2018, they should do a immersion with gmod murder or trouble in terriost town with all of Achievement Hunter.

[@ltchugacast131]

Glam Gam Ryan would probably win

[@alexthebomber]

That's actually been done before, not immersion but a real life version of TTT. A group did it with airsoft guns and rented an area a couple times. Pretty cool videos as well.

[@Supertigerman]

alexthebomber was it the node channel? Their pretty cool guys. I actually got that idea from them.

[@Bread_Bauru]

Glam Gam you know what would be fun to do as a Immersion, the beginning of Wolfenstein 2, the candidates have to go through point A, to point B, on a wheelchair with nerf guns

[@ashravenpb]

There are plenty of airsoft and paintball TTT videos. It's actually pretty easy to setup

FUPA was this year? I mean last year. That end was great and better than most movies.

AH was the best when it seemed like they were just friends fucking around and having fun. Ever since AH got corporate, that feeling of friends seemed to disappear over time, now they just seem like they’re making content just to make content.

The last time I could watch AH and forget I was watching a “company” KZbin and not just a bunch of friends having fun and genuinely laughing and dong whatever the fuck made them happy. Clear friendliness and chemistry, all genuine, laughing till they cried, being themselves unapologetically. No monitoring or sensoring (except for the realllllll dark bad ones in fibbage😅) or forced acting in videos because they’re afraid of being “cancelled” by one wrong joke. Or they have to act a certain way on camera due to corporate ahit. I’m not hating on the new people because i loved Uno infinite and I watch some new content from time to time when it sparks my interest, but I find myself watching the 2014-2018 best of a LOT because I just miss the old days when it was just some friends being friends and messing around
