Hardest game you've played

[-Whiplash-]

y'know, those games that drive you nuts? (I want a CONSOLE game, no I wanna be the guy, etc.)

for me it's:
Contra 3
Ninja Gaiden
Super Ghouls and Ghosts
F-Zero GX
Mega man zero series.


and KOF 2001, Igniz is hard, but ZERO is nigh impossible.

[Astaroth]

Ninja Gaiden
Castlevania Dracula X
Kid Icarus (can't get past the first level!)

[ATiC3]

Dracula X Chronicles, I think, for the PSP.. omg that is so fricken hard....!!

[Slayer]

Ninja Gaiden.

[DizzyTheConquer]

Does hacks count? If not

Super Ghouls & Ghost, Street Fighter 2010, Contra series & Ninja Gaiden

[Vitamin]

Nanobreaker
It's a great game, but it's one the hardest games I've ever played.

Contra Shattered Soldier....no freakin way possible u gettin the real ending with 100% hit ratio without a Replay device
Weapon Lord (snes)...just abuse...so bad you only have a chance seeing any ending using the LAST master
Red Faction 2 (ps2)...just wtf man
&
Rad Racer (Nes)...was such a victory when i FINALLY beat it

Thats the only ones i can remember right now

[BigJ]

The entire Ghouls and Ghosts series
R-Type
X-men (Genesis)
Spiderman and X-men (Think thats what it was called) (Genesis)
Vectorman

Eh, thats all I can think of right now.

[DEMONKAI]

Spiderman and X-men (Think thats what it was called) (Genesis)

If ya talkin bout Spiderman & the Xmen "Arcades Revenge" Then Hell freakin yeh i agree.
Beat the game one d@mn time on snes and that wasnt till i got the emulator eons later in a modded xbox....sad smh

Music was dope though on Gambit stage (snes)

[KPT25]

Contra 4 by far was one of the hardest things i've ever played.

[SanjiSasuke]

Arcade's Revenge...I think I memorized the 1st stage.
Ninja Gaiden...I don't have any comment on it's difficulty.

[BigJ]

Yeah, I looked it up earlier and it brought back of memories... of painful, painful memories . I do agree on the music though.

[JDubbs]

Monster Hunter

[AugustAPC]

World of Warcraft, vanilla. The social aspect combined with nearly unbeatable bosses which required 40 nerds working in unison, made it incredibly hard.

[The Question]

Metal Slug 3

[HyperGogeta]

Ninja Gaiden, Princce of persia: warrior within, and metroid.

[Tundra]

X-men (Genesis)
Spiderman and X-men (Think thats what it was called) (Genesis)
Vectorman

Plus Sonic Spinball, and every Mario game

[Playing Enemy]

Ninja Gaiden 2, by far. Geometry Wars is pretty dang tough too, at least when you start getting far in it.

[Vitamin]

The number one hardest game/series is "Battletoads"
There is no game harder than battletoads...

[ATiC3]

Ninja Gaiden, Princce of persia: warrior within, and metroid.

I agree completely.. I'm still trying to beat that game today.. That Dahaka just comes out of nowhere and scares the crap outta me sometimes no lie...

[I_Burner]

The number one hardest game/series is "Battletoads"

True dat! I actually beat the first NES game back in the day, and my brother still doesn't believe me. Just thinking about those damned jetbikes makes me wanna cry.

After that, the toughest I've played would have to be Super Ghouls & Ghosts, Contra, and Ninja Gaiden.

One game I haven't seen mentioned that always gave me fits was The Immortal. Just try the areas that require you to use the flying carpet or the worm detector and you'll know what I'm talking about.

[-Whiplash-]

Okay, that video, was wrong on so many levels.

I agree with GX (although I did almost unlock everything in that game), Contra, (IMO the hardest, game EVER specificly 3), Ninja Gaiden, Super gouls and ghosts (Got to the part where you had to do it all over again, immediatly quit.)

But really? LOZ2? it wasn't that hard. I beat it, yet I can't beat the first one.

EDIT: okay, I lied, I never played the original, however, Ijust did now.

I was able to beat the first level, first try, without dieing once. meh. Comparing that with contra 3, where I have never last longer then a 5 minutes in the first level, this game ain't too bad.

EDIT2: Okay, second level is a serious pain in the butt. WHat, does this game's difficulty increase exponentially or something?

[DEMONKAI]

next up:


Gradius Nes & Snes
Festors Quest
Super Mario The Lost worlds (snes)....wow
the 1st Mega Man (nes)..
&
Double Dragon (nes)...still never beat it
