How to unlock the The Gold Standard achievement in STREET FIGHTER IV - Definitive Guide

This achievement will unlock once you get Gold Medals in all of the following :

Normal Time Attack
Hard Time Attack
Normal Survival
Hard Survival

*Please note* You do not need to do any of the character specific Trials in order to obtain this achievement.


Here are some general things to know:

1. Completing a challenge in gold, means having one or more characters obtaining a gold standing in that challenge (Only one is needed though for the achievement).

2. The same character DOES NOT have to be used through out all of the challenges (So if you get a Gold with Ryu, it does not mean all your Golds have to be with Ryu).

3. When doing the Hard survival challenges, the minimum requirement for Gold (In all of them) is 40 Wins. You are free to continue on afterward, but 40 is the minimum.

4. For almost every trial (Minus Normal Survival Trail #19), Zangief is by far the easiest to use. If you want to check out my guide on using him (Without needed to be a pro), then click on this link - 'Giefing it up (A guide for using Zangief for achievements)

5. For Normal Survival Trail #19, using Akuma is preferred because of his standing fierce kick (While at a sweeping distance) is an easy 2 hits and locks the CPU in the corner.

Just a note to anyone going for this using zangief , if having trouble with survival level 4 be sure to use his PPP lariat not his KKK lariat . Its a bit slower but makes a HUGE difference in the timing . The only person i recommend using the KKK lariat on is Rufus , simply stay barely out of the sweep range and the instant the match starts and the instant he gets up start spamming KKK lariat until hes down , he should barely touch you.

In the my Zangief guide (Link posted in point 4), I highly recommend using the PPP lariot for most of the encounters. The only exception being Cammy (For her Spiral Arrow and Cannon Spike with take priority over it).

ive tried using this a number of times (the double kick) as you need to do it in time attack level 14 as you cannot use the double lariat. This does nopt leave you with enough time to Gold the level. Any ideas?

I used Zangief's High Kick, Jump High Kick, and sweep (Being as cheap as hell is the key). However, my friend also great success with Sagat (Due to his reach).

I hate this Fuc*ing achievement if it weren't for it, This game wouldn't even come close to taking as long to 1k as SSF4 does.

For those still having trouble with Normal Survival #19, because they can´t use Akuma´s Super or Ultra whenever they want, I´ve found a similar method using Fei Long. You spam the fierce kick + forward in a similar way than Akuma. It isn´t as fast or as good, but he has stronger defense and usually can defeat Seth without trouble. You can use his Super or Ultra easier, and although it can be blocked or evaded, it´s a lot better than not being able to use them at all. The jump + fierce kick usually wins in all aerial combats. I got to Bison on my first try, and I screwed up because I couldn´t do the Super at time...

The description for this achievement is misleading, you do NOT need to complete any character trials for this achievement. You only need to get gold medals on all of the Normal and Hard Time Attacks and Survival challenges, which is simple thanks to Zangief's Lariat spam.
