Extremelly hard video games you know or could never beat.

[kin]

Hands down Silver Surfer for me. I am attempting to beat the first level right now. Other games that killed me were...

- Ghosts n Goblins
- Trojan
- Time Lord
- Battletoads
- Last boss car on Ridge Racer

word.

i have every battle toads on my xbox and i have timelord. never beat 'em as a kid, dont know if i will now. Also very good old game from NES that i just beat a few weeks ago is Yo noid! I could NEVER beat it as a kid, then, what do ya know, i beat it 10 years down the line! fun game.

[guitar_demon]

i heard there was some ninja game that was insane to beat, gaiden or something. theres a new game coming out thats supposed to be fucking hard as hell aswell

i could never seem to beat those never ending games though :p

The game series were called Ninja Gaiden. HARD. I could NEVER beat them as a kid, even though I might try them again in a bit. Just switched from Silver Surfer to Karnov right now, by the way.

[Bia]

Other games that killed me were...

- Ghosts n Goblins


I got strokes playing that as a child on NES...upper levels were very hard.

However I kicked ass on Sega Mortal Kombat & SNES MK2 when I was 10ish
Babyality...Friendship.....heh

[Chris Rezendes]

Operation Wolf and Ultimate Air Combat, both for NES. I loved both of those games and would play despite the fact that I knew I wouldn't win.

[Pandemonium]

Is Ghosts and Goblins the game where you are a knight and start out fighting a bunch of ghouls in a cemetary or something? If I remember correctly, there was a part where you had to fight some bosses inside of a body, near the heart. I never beat that game.

This is funny, because I was looking at my Super NES games today and thinking how easy contemporary games are. Particularly, I found those games where you are in a spaceship or something and moving up, down, and across the screen while the screen moves ever forward to always be pretty hard.

yea those were a bitch once you got to higher levels. same with those games where you have to guard the towns from these 'missles' coming towards them by blowing up the missles in the air. easy at first till you get to the higher levels then its damn near immpossable

[BeastOfCarrion]

Galactix.
100 levels of 2D space combat.
The best i ever did was 93. The average (once skills were developed was around 30)

[YOUR_GOD_IS_DEAD]

Hunter : The Reckoning. I could never beat it. fuck you. oh yeah, has anyone played morrowind of xbox or pc? heres a better question, has anyone beat that fucking game? sweet christ its so addicting, but then you dont know how to beat it because of all the freaking sidequests and shit. god im a nerd. :(

[powersofterror]

Playing Doom in Nightmare mode is fucking insane.

[JoeYngVai]

Believe it or not, I DID beat Morrowind. I played for enough hours to fill up a few days in total, until I finally said, "Hey, I should try beating it."

The only thing is, I used cheats :p I SWEAR IT'S IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT CHEATING! Therfore, Morrowind is the hardest game(In my opinion) EVER created. Fun game, but damn... Bethesda... please touch it up a little.

Well, anybody getting XBox 360? Oblivion(the sequel to Morrowind) is coming out on it, and I bet it will be just as hard.

EDIT: Err... nobody cares, but it's actually not the sequel, just the fourth game of the Elder Scrolls series... :sickface:

[BeastOfCarrion]

Morrowind is technically IMPOSSIBLE to finish, you can do the main quest right through (and I have) but there are so many side quests that It would be impossible to find them all without knowing where they are.

[Jittery Sniper]

Operation Wolf and Ultimate Air Combat, both for NES. I loved both of those games and would play despite the fact that I knew I wouldn't win.yeah! teh is hard nientedo HA!

but seriously, those are hard as fuck. Hard games are better if you like "replay" value. I thought zelda two, links adventure was challenging. I beat it, 12 years after I first played it. 8-bit nintendo rules over any 128 bit snowboarding wank factory game. I hate new video games, so gay.

[SARS]

Swordmaster & T2 on the nes.

[NZ black metal drumm]

Hitch hickers guide to the galaxy the text game, was voted the hardest game ever, even if you DID read the books and get the stratergy book thing.

[Infinity]

Z

[Sodomaniac]

Anyone of you played "Postal 2" ? Or someone know it ?

[Tattered]

Metal gear solid 3 on European Extreme..

. Seriously, I had all the things to make me the Nerevarine, but i saw the effects and i was like, what the hell do i need this shit for, i coul djust cheat my way to full health. i pawned all the heirlooms, then to find out i need them to prove to everyone that i am nerevarine. I forgot who or where i hocked em. i just stoppped playing. Leave us cult of nerds alone. :p

[shimbolla]

I would have never beaten Dracula The Last Sanctuary if it weren't for the walk-through cheat codes. It would've been practically impossible. Same goes for Sanitarium. Sanitarium is one awesome game -- I've played it through and beat it twice already. But without cheats it'd take quite a while.
(I have PC, no consols) :(

[Bia]

Playing Doom in Nightmare mode is fucking insane.

Damn straight....Also I found Quake II nightmare mode quite an adrenaline rush.
I played it so much....I'd often dream about it.
At the end though...I could walk through subtly and waste everything there....but that's simply from repetition and efficient game play.

[sqol]

Anyone of you played "Postal 2" ? Or someone know it ?

I never played Postal 2, may see if i can download it, i remember 1 was brilliant... lots of killing i seem to remember :)

Yeah, I got so confused while playing it. You need a guide of some sort. But now, since I beat it, I'll never play it again. My character is so powerful, that I can use the weapons you get at the end to increase all my stats as high as I want, and then just kill people. No where near as fun as GTA.

That reminds me, getting 100% in any of the last three GTA games would be really hard. I'd NEVER have the time for that.

[i_hate_nu_metal]

8-bit nintendo rules over any 128 bit snowboarding wank factory game. I hate new video games, so gay.

So true. These days everything is about graphics and realism, fuck gameplay. The morons who make these games don't realize that if people wanted reality, they could just walk outside.
One game I could never beat was WWF Smackdown, one of 'em, don't know exactly which one, since there's like 15 of 'em out now. I think first or second one.
That shit was hard, annoying, and fucking stupid. I skipped school one day just to play that shit, and man, was that a stupid fucking ddecision. I spent like six fucking hours being the no. 1 contender for the heavyweight title, and never got a title shot, only to lose it all in a stupid exibition match. That game gave me such a headache, I wanted to break everything around me.
On a side note, has anyone played Fight Club? I played it the other night, and it had some pretty cool stuff, but it got old and boring really quick. I do like the slow motion close ups of bones breaking, though, that was pretty brutal. They give you like an X-ray vision type of view. That was cool and original.

[Ten Ton Alien]

These days everything is about graphics and realism, fuck gameplay.

i strongly disagree. i love my old NES, SNES and Megadrive like every other gamer but, just to give an example, GTA: San Andreas is more fun to play than 90% of all games ever released on those systems.

by visiting some gaming sites, i realize it's becoming a trend to "hate" new games just because they don't have simplistic graphics and primitive gameplay.

but on-topic, i've never crossed paths with any game i would consider hard and i always do my best to finish them. if i get really stuck for more than 2 or 3 days, i simply go to GameFaqs to find the solution.

[Zionist]

I still haven't beaten Metroid Prime, the last boss is insanely hard.

[guitar_demon]

which one? isnt there about 5 of them at least

[Zionist]

There is only two Metroid Primes, and i'm talking about the first one for gamecube.

[Six_Feet_Under_420]

I never played Postal 2, may see if i can download it, i remember 1 was brilliant... lots of killing i seem to remember :)


I have postal 2. It's a fun game to play but there's a point you can't master. I still can't now and i have that game for like a year now :p. Plus it runs on the unreal 2 engine so graphic wise it's very different from postal 1.

A game I can't seem to beat is that Black and White 1 or 2. I know the fucking game has an ending. but i never reached it.

[YOUR_GOD_IS_DEAD]

A game I can't seem to beat is that Black and White 1 or 2. I know the fucking game has an ending. but i never reached it.

I see my brother and sister play it all the time. I always thought it was an open ended game. The little hymns that the villagers would chant and pound cracked me up.

[SARS]

I fuckin' hated my "pet" in Black & White....plus I had the shittest mouse in the world back then...so performing spells was nonsensical most times.

[Pandemonium]

There is only two Metroid Primes, and i'm talking about the first one for gamecube.

Meh, I beat it. :p

[Tulvox]

I could never beat the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game on NES...that game was hard. Also, I can never finish a Morrowind game...they get boring after a while.

[BeastOfCarrion]

A game I can't seem to beat is that Black and White 1 or 2. I know the fucking game has an ending. but i never reached it.

Black & White 1 has 5 levels.

[LordofStorms]

:eek: Blasphemy.

[low-tech]

ive been struggling with mrs. pacman, i can only get to the blue screen

i swear around the early 90's nintendo games were made to be impossible to beat unless you knew the codes and still it was tough, i think it had to do with code books being an additional sell,more money for them. one day i'll buy super-nintendo, its the best 2 dimensional graphic game console, i cant hang with the 3d games and the new consoles<with the exception of grand theft auto> especially if they come with a 300 page book and take 2 years to beat

theres a flea market below where i live that sells arkaniod 2, the arcade game, 200$, its been there for 3 years and i want it, i always wanted to own atari-era arcade games

You have a point about the GTA series games. Every one of 'em, including the first one were very fun to play. Bloodshed, violence, and mayhem just never get old. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with good graphics, and I am certainly following no trend. Hell, the only gaming site I go to is ign.com, and the only reason I go there is for cheats. I don't really know what is popular and what isn't in the world of video games today.
Soul Calibur 2 was a very sweet looking game, and very fun to play. I spent countless hours playing it. Halo and Halo 2, as well. However, many fighting games today, I just can't get into them. I still have to come across a game that can offer the fast paced badass gameplay of Mortal Kombat 3. Man, I've spent nights upon nights playing that game with my friends and it never fucking got old. I think MK3 was the pinacle of the Mortal Kombat series.

[timedragon]

I can never finish a Morrowind game...they get boring after a while.
i could be wrong, but i dont think marrowind games end. you can beat the missions but ive never heard of a point in which the gameplay actually comes to an end.

EDIT: oh yeah, and that game fucking kicks ass. its almost too much packed into one game.

[The Execrator]

I could never beat and Syphon Filter games.

[Tulvox]

I owned Elder Scrolls once...I beat all that I could, but it got boring. Personally I don't like games that don't end. They drive me nuts.

Edit: Has anyone played/plan on playing The Matrix Online?

[Zertonshfits]

EDIT: oh yeah, and that game fucking kicks ass. its almost too much packed into one game.

Oh its WAY too much in one game... when you get to a certain point in the game and explored a cretain amount of the map, it takes like a full hour to load... and no ive never beaten it... that ritual leader for the Ashlanders told me to find the "Cavern of the Incarnate" that would only appear at 6 or 7 am and pm in this certain chasm with big pointed teeth-like rocks... i wondered around for like, 4 hours everyday for a week trying to find it but i couldnt so i just gave up and never picked the game up since... sad really, it was a good game...

another game i never beat was Bloodwake... i got to the last mission no problem, but then i beat my evil brother and my gay ass defected XBox frose on me... it still does that everytime...

another was Halo 2 on lengendary mode... ouch... tough shit
especially with a partner cause if one of you dies then you lose the mission... brings a new meaning to cooperative... we used to be able to have one of us hid behind a big box or something and shoot the hell oput of then then revive him by going in a door or in a past room, it never failed ;)

That bit was an absolute PAIN IN THE ASS. I only found it because someone else found it by accident when they were fucking around, and thiught "hey, that looks to be in the right spot" and even when I knew where it was - it was still a pain in the ass to find. (Then I had to wait for the fucking thing to open).

:eek: you found it!!! where is it!!! i need to beat that game!!! send me a screan shot or something

[YOUR_GOD_IS_DEAD]

I could never beat the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game on NES...that game was hard.

That game was as hard as Michael Jackson in a pre-school. I beat it on my emulator because i was saving every 10 seconds.

[Tulvox]

I can't even beat it on emulator... :bawling:

[YOUR_GOD_IS_DEAD]

:eek: you found it!!! where is it!!! i need to beat that game!!! send me a screan shot or something

here you go

[BeastOfCarrion]

Im fairly sure that it is the top one. You can find it at any time, it looks like a HUGE door with moons and stuff on it. It only opens at the times stated.

[Zertonshfits]

wicked thanks! il do that now :D

[timedragon]

I beat it on my emulator because i was saving every 10 seconds.
:D its a very convenient feature isnt it.

[autumncurve]

is it like a main quest mission your talking about...(i still havnt started it)...or can you go and wait whenever?

[Zertonshfits]

is it like a main quest mission your talking about...(i still havnt started it)...or can you go and wait whenever?

you can wait for as long as you want... tyheres so many side quests and land to explore yu can go for days without doing the first quest :D

[ShredIsNotDead]

Haha I rented that morrowind game once. I thought it was awesome at first but then I had to fight this rat and I couldn't beat him for the life of me so I quit.

[IRON90]

F1 Racing for GB. I got it when i was like 7 and I haven't beaten it yet(I'm 15 now).

[newHELLonEARTH]

super mario bros the lost levels.. lol im a fuckin retard im on the last level and i have been for like a week... i have SNES fever.. :p

[Infinity]

Me and my cousin played the lost levels for about an entire day and we still didn't finish it. After you get past like world 9-4 it goes to A-1, and then you go through the whole alphabet. The Bowzer castles are fun where you have to memorise the patterns of going up or down.

whoa! hehe thats cool!- yea! yea!
(if u havent noticed, thats beavis and butthead style)
but seriously that sounds fuckin hard!!!

[BLS]

Haha I rented that morrowind game once. I thought it was awesome at first but then I had to fight this rat and I couldn't beat him for the life of me so I quit.

HA! A fucking rat??

You must of been a very low level. :p

[Cheese Co]

I could never beat Neverwinter Nights, or basically any RPG game, they are so long, and i get addicted for about a week or so, but then forget about it for years, then pick it up and have to start over.

[Six_Feet_Under_420]

half life 2 is quite a challenge. I'm still stuck somewhere in the end of the game :p

[Soulinsane]

FFXI, who the hell has beat that? I have been at it a year and no results. I swear it takes about 2+ years to complete; and I don't care who you are; many people are still at it full time. It can not be done.

It is the hardest game next to the NES Goodnies ( which I fucking killed).

Hardest Game Ever goes to:

Tetrus ( max score 194 )

[Jittery Sniper]

What the fuck is Tetrus? ;) Is it similar to charles barkley basketball fantasy fun camp for Sega 32x?

[Sick Fucker]

Operation Flashpoint.

And Hind. The controls were fucked up, but it's still fun to shoot those filthy towelheads in the Afghanistan-campaign. :)

[Hate Eternal]

You can't beat FFXI, it's an online RPG you can do everything possible on the game but you can't beat it.

[Soulinsane]

You can't beat FFXI, it's an online RPG you can do everything possible on the game but you can't beat it.

True, but no one has done it all as of yet. The game is huge.

[BeastOfCarrion]

True, but no one has done it all as of yet. The game is huge.
Maybe thats becasue they can release it quickly, only encompassing the low end stuff, and then build on it over time (paying their nerdy level designers with the money from the monthly access fee) so by the time it is shiped, there is already a 10mb patch that has the next 10 character levels worth of stuff on it. Its a decent marketing thing - though personally I don't think much of the monthly access fee that you would have to pay to play.

[Tulvox]

I've never beaten Ruby Weapon on FF7...75+ hours into it, only side quest I can't beat. That and the Excalibur 2 sidequest on FF9...beat the game in 2 hours my ass...

[low-tech]

i know its corny to ask but where can you download games for free?, i mean like atari, nes type games, ive looked but all that comes up is junksites, i had a roomate who had all this shit on his computer, nearly all the old atari systems games,nintendo, all the early stuff

[Tulvox]

www.coolrom.com is where I get mine. There is one or two ads though. And don't got vote for any rom site, it just leads to more pop-ups.

[newHELLonEARTH]

actually you dont have to do the whole alphabet.. i just now beat the game and i was on world D

[cw4119]

I used to think Sigma (last boss from Mega man x) was impossible, but last year i beat that fucker.

Morrowind - there was a main quest in that? oops

Legend of the Mystical Ninja (snes) - fun fun game but hard as hell.

everquest 2 - yeah try getting to level 50 on that shit

[BassBehemoth]

I had to bring this thread back....

Earthbound - SNES...towards the end the enemies were retarded!!!
Paper Boy - Game Boy
Jaws - NES...he was too godamn hard, maybe that had to do with the fact I was an un violated child

Morrowind is such a fucking sweet game.so godamn in depth..I put like 90 hours into that game..haha and then I gave up on the main quest and everything...

However, I NEED an Xbox 260 for Oblivion...holy fucking shit I can't wait..it's supposed to be so improved physics wise and it looks incredible.

[Frozen Soul]

Zelda 2 - Links adventure: This game just had really stiff controls. Link was ridiculously hard to control and the enemies just sucked. For some reason I played this game alot and eventually beat it.

Castlevania - The original Castlevania...damn, Death was fucking tough in this game, and Dracula's final transformation was not very impressive. He looked like an evil Michelin man.

Ghouls and Goblins - I think that's what that game was called. Anyways, this game was hard for the sake of being impossible to beat. It just kind of sucked, it was the kind of game that made you want to piss all over your nintendo, then light it on fire.

[davie_gravy]

Yes Ghouls n Goblins, for NES, is fuckin hard.

Ninja Gaiden for Xbox fuckin owns me!

Splinter Cell 3 is fuckin tough too.

[Dyldo]

God damn Battle Toads! That game gets way, way too hard. I often wonder if anyone has ever beatin it and if the makers even made an ending.

[autumncurve]

Splinter Cell 3 is fuckin tough too.

the trick is not to get seen :p

[low-tech]

i got a theory that since nintendo cornered the market for a while the companies allowed to make the games started producing completely unbeatable, shitty games that solely relied on you getting the dumb magazines that told you the cheat codes, then still you couldnt beat them. it kinda sucks looking back at the hours wasted on some of that shit. huge corporations orchestrating a cabal on the average 12 year old to buy more shit after he gets the game. i guess its the same nowadays, but the newer systems games actually seem interesting and somewhat beatable. i got some super nes and nes games on the computer tho, some of them rule

[Black_Star]

Vector man (I think thats what it is called, came out for Sega Genisis)
apperently it's unbeatable.............

[Requiem]

Yeah Ninja Gaiden Black is coming out.If its not already out.

[IlikeRiffseveryone]

I get shaky any time anyone mentions ninja gaiden. morrowind was fucking monstrous. Cant wait for oblivion to come out on 360.

[The Execrator]

Believe it or not, I DID beat Morrowind. I played for enough hours to fill up a few days in total, until I finally said, "Hey, I should try beating it."

Well, anybody getting XBox 360? Oblivion(the sequel to Morrowind) is coming out on it, and I bet it will be just as hard.

EDIT: Err... nobody cares, but it's actually not the sequel, just the fourth game of the Elder Scrolls series... :sickface:
Dude, how the fuck did you beat that?! I bought it like 3 months ago for Xbox and I still don't even know how to fight good! I'm ok at games but that game is out of my league. I don't have the patience.

[blizzard_beast]

I got half way through (using a walkthrough) and then I got bored of the game. The Knights of the Republic series, now those are perfect RPGs.

[Dyldo]

Vector man (I think thats what it is called, came out for Sega Genisis)
apperently it's unbeatable.............

I recall getting really, really far in that game.

[philkilla]

Splinter Cell 3 is fuckin tough too.

I thought that was pretty easy actually....I STILL haven't played Ninja Gaiden yet....I'll just buy the black version and see what its all about....

[IlikeRiffseveryone]

breaking souls in half. Thats what. *cries*

[autumncurve]

morrowind is amazing...had it for like 3 years and still havnt done the main quest.

ninja gaiden is fucking impossible. i gave up and gave it to my mate (whos just completed it on hard...little fucker...)

[IlikeRiffseveryone]

yeah morrowind is awesome for just character building and exploration. And hard? Does the man masturbate to ninjas or something?

[Zertonshfits]

ninja gaiden is fucking impossible. i gave up and gave it to my mate (whos just completed it on hard...little fucker...)
its possible!!! :eek:

but ya, same eher on the morrowind story, i just keep playing and playing but i cant find a sertain thing, i sold a part to the main quest so now im fucked over hard... it sucks caus ei cant remember where i sold it :(

[autumncurve]

haha, hes completed it so i would think so. hes doing it again now to see if he can do it faster...
...he spends too much time on computer games for his own good

did you ever get the expansions for morrowind? bloodmoon and tribunal?

[Zertonshfits]

i wanted to buy them but it costs like 50$ for it, and i ant find a used one :(

[autumncurve]

its worth it. especially if you use the construction set (on PC)...even if you dont theyre still bloody cool. huge snowy island with cool plot and a kinda tropical city. its pretty damn cool, especially if uve got bored of the main island

[sqol]

Did anyone play Myst, Riven or Myst III: Exile? When i played Myst, i was far too young to have the patience to play it, but i started playing Riven a good few years ago, haven't played it in about a year though, am gonna get back into it because i recall it was really good :)

[*insert name here*]

I have finished myst and exile,and started riven before i lost interest in the series.They spooked the shit out of me,especially the exile.

[philkilla]

One game that kicked my ass was Far Cry....damn that shit was tough at times. You would just get put into unfair situations with gigantic fucking monsters...and only a few bullets for a couple of weapons....highly recommend though.

[kin]

I beat Myst with a walk through (boy was I a idiot...), and almost finished Riven with almost no external help. I have yet to play Exile though.

I LOVE GAMES LIKE THAT THOUGH.

[BeastOfCarrion]

Get Still Life then. Its pretty fuckin awesome.

A game I have at the moment that is pissing me off somewhat is Boiling Point. It has a heap of shit in it, by I manage to keep getting yma ass shot by mafia helicopters or the fucking thing crashes, which is anoying as all fuck.

[Zertonshfits]

anyonwe get the first Elder Scrolls? before morrowind?

[Dissection]

Hands down Silver Surfer for me. I am attempting to beat the first level right now. Other games that killed me were...

- Ghosts n Goblins
- Trojan
- Time Lord
- Battletoads
- Last boss car on Ridge Racer

I beat GnG years ago as a kid. Maybe I'm thinking of a different game, though. Videogames don't challenge me like they used to. I'm content with a great storyline, and some good action (Grand Theft Auto, MGS, etc.). The last game that I remember giving me a problem (as a kid, that is) is this Sega game B.O.B. Loved it, but I couldn't get that far in it.

I keep meaning to dig up the game Shadowrun, but I can't find it incredibly cheap and working.

[low-tech]

you can get shadow run at www.coolrom.com, snes or genesis

[autumncurve]

anyonwe get the first Elder Scrolls? before morrowind?

i had daggerfall but it was so fucking hard...didnt get out of the first dungeon. will prob download it and try again now im older and can actually play the whole way through games...

[Cyberwaste]

yeah morrowind is awesome for just character building and exploration.

I lost my job & girlfriend because i played Morrowind so much when it first came out. At times i actually got so caught up in it that i thought i lived there. In my opinion it is the best RPG ever to this date.

[kin]

That's why your computer is your girlfriend.

Video games > girls (most in general).

Always remember that.

[Soulinsane]

FFXI. I dare any of you to try and beat that! Takes years.

Well the hardest game I ever played in my life has to have been....Rainbow Six for gameboy. It made no fucking sence at all. And it was on Gameboy...

[Requiem]

Games I can't beat:

Megaman....anyone of them are near impossible (excluding the Battle Network series)
Doom on Nightmare mode

[timedragon]

Zombies ate my neighbors..... FUCK

although, i never got to do it on an emulator. so i had to deal with playing it all the way through, every time. if you die, they give you a password, but you loose all the weapons you have aquired throughout the whole game. it is one of the most fucking retarded things ive seen in a good game.

[Cunty Shunt]

Friday the 13th for NES. Fucking impossible.

[Me himself]

Spider-Man and the X-Men: Arcade's Revenge for snes is pretty freakin hard.

I wanna see how jacked this dude's thumbs were after beating this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IS3FqH0thY

[Death By Monkeys]

You think those games are hard?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwTsar6HuHQ

In case you can't tell what the hells going on, that game is played the same way as Galaga or those plane games in the arcade, whatever they're called. Thats a boss battle.

Edit: Heres a more ridiculous one, if you care to look at it.

I've beaten most of the Megamans.. they're not that hard. I've wanted to play Doom 3 so bad since it came out by my computer can't handle it.

I still hold the original Battletoads to be the most difficult game ever.

[the_bleeding]

I'll tell you guys how Halo 3 holds out on legendary... i just played it for the last 4 or 5 hours on regular and its easy as pie... but if its anything like halo 2, it will get REDICULOUSLY hard on legendary :D

I liked this thread.

Hard games since? Hmmmmm

Probably none, I only ever play snes games and about 20+ different 2d beat em up fighters for the ps2 haha

[Valtiel]

Super Ghouls & Ghosts. I remember playing that game as a kid and never getting past level 3 (7 levels). Finally beat back when I was working at Sony on my last day. Me FTW.

I personally thought Halo 2 legendary was WAY harder than Halo 3 legendary. I think in Halo 3 they just decided to increase the number of difficult enemies (brutes) in any one area. Great game though BTW, took me about 8 hours (solid) to beat.

[Death By Monkeys]

I creamed my pants watching this. I must have this game!

Man I freaking got it the other day after being reminded of those videos (they've been around for a while) and I cant even clear easy mode. I got to level 6 and Im not even sure how many there are. On expert mode I can barely get past the first boss.

Yeah man they are near-impossible but I'm so obsessed with them now. I'm starting with the embodiment of scarlet devil which is number 6 in the series and I'm going to attempt to beat them all in chronological order.

yeah, beat it on normal in about 6-7 hours. Legendary is next. Kinda dissapointed with the game length though

Haha I just got the first one I knew the name of, Imperishable Night. I managed to get to like level 3 on Insane difficulty, and was playing normal mode and accidentally hit quit instead of continue :(. I was doing really good though, I think I would have beaten it. These games are so freaking awesome.

This is a different game, same game style, apparently the hardest one ever made.

I ended up beating it...well, me and my folks. We probably logged over 100 hours into that game.

Here ya go:

That's a link to download The Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil.

You extract it, open the folder and run it. I believe you need Windows 98 and above and around 64mb of graphic memory.

[Infinity]

ill get around to that...

cheers req

[moe_blunts]

ninja gaiden is pretty rough on the xbox. I'm only to chapter 7 on normal difficulty and its taken me a good 9-10 hours. fun game....but somewhat frustrating.

[xgrafcorex]

teenage mutant ninja turtles on NES. fuck that was tough game. i don't think i've seen anyone come close to beating it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles_(1989_video_game)

and desert strike: return to the gulf on SNES. only 4 levels, but couldn't ever beat the second one. hell it took a while just to beat the first one for my first time.
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/g/super_nintendo/desert_strike_return_to_the_gulf/overview.php

seems like they make games a bit easier these days. never used to beat so many of them back in the days of nes and snes.

[Chris Rezendes]

I always ran out of ammo in the last level of Operation Wolf (NES). The few times I managed to sneak in well stocked up, I was still shot to death.

[Djeez]

I remember Myst! I never beat it. I remember it going on and on and on and on that I just gave up.

Myst ruled!

I can beat that shit in like 60 seconds now though, because I know what to do by heart haha.

I've been having trouble with Metroid Prime: Hunters or atleast the WiFi of the game. Kids on there are amazing.

I never beat Majora's Mask, and I really need to. Why the hell are Zelda games so damn amazing? And why the hell is Koji Kondo so freakin' awesome! (composer/genius)

[mathias krieg]

I'm playing Ninja Gaiden Xbox now... it is pretty difficult in that you must fight fluidly and efficiently in every single fight, or you will lose a lot of health. There are no weak enemies besides maybe the bats, no fights where you can take a breather and hammer some buttons for awhile. Also sometimes there's a couple of tricky segments or boss battles without an intermittent save point. I don't like backtracking to save after a battle, why not have some autosaves or something. I believe the boss Doku is right after an annoying platform segment, so instead of fighting him well I just spammed fireballs and junk, chugging on those potions. I got no skills...

That game took me forever to finish. The new one on PS3 is great too. It's the same game with a few new levels.

Everything about every Zelda game is pretty much flawless, even the ones one gameboy are great. My second favorite gaming franchise. (the first being Elder Scrolls)

I beat it, bitch! Took me a few years though; It's a fucking Impossible game. Ghost fish suck balls.

[mathias krieg]

I think i just hit chapter 14.. maybe 13. I just got through the Pyramid, about 11 hours played. I'll probably beat it tomorrow. Then i might replay and use some of the other weapons (i've only used the dragon sword) or something.

[Infinity]

Last boss on Armoured Core 1 [Nine Ball] was super tough if you fought like a man [and not take the cheap route and stand in that tiny hole in the roof and wait for him to randomly fly through]

How is the original AC? I've only played and beat the 3rd and 4th ones. Both ridiculously easy.

The game has tons of replay value. There is also downloadable content which can be obtained from Xbox Live, I highly recommend getting it. Oh yeah, get all 50 scarabs. It unlocks the original three games. (you have to do a little more stuff after getting them)

[mathias krieg]

fuck xbox live.. this xbox has been sitting around for 2 years, it was my brothers and barely ever used. I can't get broadband so i can't game online, LIve wouldnt be worthwhile anyways.

I have the original 3 games (on my NES emulator i mean).. I would like to unlock that on xbox though. Those games are challenging in a different way, the way that makes me get up and just turn off the game when I die instead of trying again because it's frustrating and pointless. But hell.. maybe on a TV it would be easier for me to play.

[Requiem]

From what I remember XBox Live isn't the only way to get the extra content. I believe, there is a disc you can buy from Team Ninja.

i cant get passed chapter 7. fuck that purple cunt. i started a new game.

[mathias krieg]

which boss is the purple cunt? Is it that chick's demon sister? I think i won by spamming the inferno spell and doing a lot of dive attacks, just jump and roll away from the shit she throws at you.

[Infinity]

How is the original AC? I've only played and beat the 3rd and 4th ones. Both ridiculously easy.


Bosses are quite hard

Some pretty tight missions too

And as I said, last boss is a cunt

Also, the others are ridiculously easy but equal ammounts ridiculously fun.

[Soeru]

Those Ikaruga/R-type spaceship shooter type games. Fucking retartedly difficult. There are times where it's virtually impossible to dodge a bigass shot/laser from a boss that takes up the whole screen.

[moe_blunts]

so i started a new game of ninja gaiden and did what took me 13 hours previously in 3 hours. i beat the "impossible cunt" on my first try. the key was upgrading my sword.....mueahhh

this game is fuckin sweet.

[mathias krieg]

im at the end of ninja gaiden... a long series of tough fights interspersed with runs through ghost fish, with no more Murasama stores. Then a save point, then 3 straight boss fights, then a save point, then the insane final bosses, with no chance to buy items again. I want potions :(

edit: i've just learned that there is another boss at the end, jeez. I've also learned that you can backtrack all the way to the previous item shop, so I guess i'm going to have to do that if I want to survive.

edit 2: that worked well... with a full supply of items, the end wasn't so bad. Now I replay, and try out some different weapons... I can't believe I never used the nunchaku or Vigoorian Flail, those are pretty badass.. i'm not much for ridiculous big swords though.

[SolothurN]

I know one impossible to beat game. It's called 'LIFE' and everyone who plays it always gets GAME OVER.

i cant get passed chapter 7. fuck that purple cunt. i started a new game.

FUCK her in the FUCKING ass i know. I spent so fucking long on her. Wow, I seriously almost threw my whole system out the window because of that. Then when I beat her I came all over the tv and made cookies.

I'm to the aquaduct part where you have to fight 2 big tapeworm things. I did it, but can't figure out where to go. This game is definatley time consuming.

Playing Golden Eye on N64. The game is bloody fun, but hell, I can't even run and shoot simultaneously. Making the multi player a challenge. I've owned it for years(since launch) not once have I played the campaign though. Won't be surprised if it is insanely hard.

[philkilla]

It's not insanely hard...well, maybe. I beat that game years ago.

Halo 3 was a little difficult on legendary...the last "drive" was a bitch for sure.


I'm positive that Halo 3 on legendary with all the skulls on would be impossible for sure...even if you are the motherfucking man.

I've just recently began a new file with that game. Gonna beat it for old time's sake. Haven't played it in a least a good 9 years.. jesus does time fly. but that game was never outstandingly hard.

lol, who remembers Chex Quest?? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chex_Quest

oh man, I just might download that one for old time's sake too. I never did finish it. speaking of which, I thought I'd also mention that I've been progressing in Doom for Gameboy Advance off and on. It's just now starting to get a little tough.
