What the Hardest Game You've Played?
 
Ok lets see how high the list will stack up ill go first......


the hardest game that i've come across recently is resonance of fate its such a hard game with a steep learning curve for those who dont want to give the game a chance due to the fighting style. but the game seems so unbeatable and one sided when u fight bosses like trying to beat up a bear with a stick its just not going to happen

The hardest game I ever played for long enough to legitimately call it the hardest game I've played, is a SNES game called Jim Power: The Lost Dimension in 3D. Basically, it's a combination of a platformer, an overhead view like Zelda, and a shooter, with each level being a different style. I was particularly bad at the shooter levels. Gradius 3 is another example of a shooter game I suck at, and a game like that may even be harder IMO, but I didn't play it enough.

I know there are games like Silver Surfer and Battletoads that are notorious for their difficulty, but games that hard usually turn me off because of their difficulty and I don't even TRY to complete them.

A couple games that many people consider hard which I beat were Contra and Zelda 2. I used to be able to beat Contra without using the code too.

ahahahah i hated that game so much freaking time limit to beat the game .... reminds me off zeldas majoras mask

Re: What the Hardest Game You've Played?
 
Ninja Gaiden was indeed a hard game, but it's one of those games that I didn't really give a chance due to its difficulty. Also, same deal with Majora's Mask, I didn't give that a chance because of its time limit. And I'm not gonna give Final Fantasy XIV a chance because of its hour-a-day limit either. Square-Enix REALLY screwed up on that one. Anyway, that's another story. :P

The hardest game that I ever played was Super ghost n goblin and Demon Crest
well to tell you the truth, they are not all sooo hard to beat, its just that you have to have patience to beat.

Has anyone ever played I Wanna Be The Guy? It's brutal. It's one of those games which exists for the sole purpose of being frustratingly difficult. Much like old NES games like Battletoads or Ninja Gaiden, except multiply the difficulty about tenfold. Good luck if you ever decide to play it.

the bosses in ninja gaiden 1 and 2 still make that series one of the hardest i ever played

Don't you mean the one for NES? I know that one had a really hard underwater level, but the SNES one was different. I played that one quite a bit and got really close to beating it - I made it to one of the final rooms of the game before the final boss. After awhile I simply got used to the underwater level and it became second nature to me.

That was quite ingenious if I do say so myself. I can't remember the hardest game I had to play but I do remember one of the more recent ones, which includes BB, beating score attack..

Ninja Gaiden 1 for the NES.
I just can't beat the two dog guys no matter what i try, and thats if i even get to them after the assault of random birds trying to kill me for no reason.....what evil organization hires wild birds to attack their enemy?

Re: What the Hardest Game You've Played?
 
I tried I Wanna Be The Guy for a little bit, never tried too seriously though. There was this one somewhat similar game which was basically Mario but with a Cat and the game was out to kill you because it basically threw out all conventions you knew about side-scrolling platforms out the window. I forgot the name of it though.

As for other difficult games, there's the whole Touhou project series. I'm starting to get decent at Normal, but I hang out with a few Lunatic players in the chat room I frequent so their skills stomp mine.

It's called Syobon Action - I beat that one, it's only 4 levels long :P

That's the name! Yeah, I think technically it isn't hard once you know where the various absurd traps are 'cause it's just memorization from there, but in your first play through it's hella funny and hard like, "...wtf, did that flagpole at the end just kill me?" I also heard there's a Syobon Action 2.

Siren. Siren. And Siren.

I consider myself an avid player of horror games, and most of the time they're quite hard due to their core gameplay. I'm not bothered by hard games so much as I am by impossible ones. For those who don't know Siren originally came out for PlayStation 2. What basically occurs in the game is this village becomes these type of zombies. Due to the bloody water, you gain the ability to basically see through their eyes. This sounds cool in theory, but not in areas when you've never seen before. You really have no idea where one of these things are walking around, and if they spot you they alert every other one, too.

I've only gotten so far with a guide, and even then the game gets more difficult when you have to guide the BLIND. There was a second one released in Japan, and a third one on PS3. I didn't play either of them due to the difficulty of the first. I did try the demo for the third one, which seemed a lot creepier... but didn't seem to change much in terms of gameplay.

This game will forever haunt me as being the one horror game I have not completed. CURSES!

Space Invaders. THEY JUST KEEP GETTING FASTER!! I got into the level-select screen on my old Atari 2600 and decided to jump to level 80. #omgveryno
I had no chance.

I didn't touch the game for 3 months because of that final boss.

Oh boy how I hate that final boss.

This. Using warp zones, the farthest I've ever gotten was level 10, but typically I only can make it up to level 9. Well, that's the hardest good game I've played anyways; the hardest bad game I've had the displeasure of playing was The Terminator on the NES. The game's controls are so horrid that I never could make it past the first level.

The mission "Burn them out" (or something like that) in Call of Duty:World at War when it's on Vetran Diffuculty. You play an American soldier and you have to storm the Japanese dug-in trench. It's so retarded. First there's an unlimited number of Japanese, so you have to keep advancing or they just keep respawning. Second, even a pea-shooter would kill you. Third, they keep spamming grenades to prevent your advancing, which just means that it goes in for forever... I still haven't gotten past it because the enemy AI is so cheap. :veryunhappy:

I really have to agree.
The first Boss-match were a real bad fight for me, over 20 retries.
and don´t get him down.
Then I trained every character with the different weapon types.
then fought the boss again, after some retries I got him. It is a really hard game ._.

Devil May Cry 3 for me, the first American version. Absolutely refused to switch to Easy mode after unlocking it by dying to Cerberus too many times, and took me months to get past him. I wasn't playing everyday so it's not as bad as it sounds.

The doujin shmup Suguri is also pretty hard, still haven't beaten it.

I usually don´t have problems with any game.

But LoZ: twilight princess... I just say dragons and climbing a wall trying not to get flamed. I don´t know how often I died because I just threw away all hope to ever reach the friggin dragon.

I know exactly what you mean, mate. Every time I'd play, I was all over the place. The game itself wasn't that challenging, the real challenge was getting around the controls! #noelrage

Battletoads, curse that game. One of very few games that is harder when you play with a friend.

Too true, mate. Too true. Another one for me was Metal Gear Solid, the original on the PS1. Oh man! :ragna:
