Bioshock: Brass Balls question

[jman3000]

I havn't played Bioshock for a long time and I decided to pick it up again and try to beat it on hard.

One of the achievements is to beat the game on hard without using Vita Chambers. I've heard that this achievement is extremely glitchy and havn't found a definitive explanation.

Some say that if you die and use a VC then reload a save from before you died, the achievement corrupts due to the VC use... even though you're using a save from before.

Anybody have this?

I'm about 25% done and I don't wanna go through another 10 or so hours of gaming and be screwed.
