Toughest Videogame

[Rodrigo90]

What is the most hardest game you have EVER played?

Ive gone back 22 years and started playing the original Castlevania. The Grim Reaper boss is tough as nails,lol.

 

[Addendum]

Ghosts 'n Goblins
Ninja Gaiden (Xbox)

 

[Wolvieboy17]

Not necessarily difficult, but i found Dead Rising really hard to keep playing, with the crappy save function. I'd die, lose heaps of progress and think "Stuff this."

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

Yeah, Dead Rising was so tough I didn't even finish it.

 

[Wolvieboy17]

Me neither, which is annoying because i was really getting into the story.

Seth kept kicking my ass in Street Fighter IV in medium mode . I learned that not only are the DualShock 3 controllers incredibly sturdy, but bouncy too.

[Sloth7d]

Difficult due to crap game design: Superman 64

Difficult due to challenging gameplay: Battletoads

That bastard is supposedly going to be cheaper in SSFIV.

Most Nintendo games. Hence the "Nintendo Hard" label.

 

[KALEL114]

Ghosts 'n Goblins.

 

[eternalinferno]

I say contra 3, I would never have beaten that game w/o a game genie

 

[Why Are You Crouching Spock?]

System Shock 2.

Seth kept kicking my ass in Street Fighter IV in medium mode . I learned that not only are the DualShock 3 controllers incredibly sturdy, but bouncy too.

It's especially irritating while attempting to unlock final characters.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Gonna 3rd the Battletoads nomination

 

[Jick]

Gonna 4th it.
I beated it, but using a SNES emulator.
It is impossible to beat it without an emulator. Even with one it's so damn hard.

 

[Spidey_62]

Gotta be Maximum Carnage on SNES/Genesis for me. That game is nuts without cheating, and when you still cheat it's nuts.

 

[StrainedEyes]

Those Super Star Wars games were a pain in the ass.

 

[PyroChamber]

Yeah, Dead Rising was so tough I didn't even finish it.

I finished it, but I started over to try and get that Mega Man Blaster; after two hours I couldn't even do it.

 

[webhead731]

I avoid these "hardest games ever". Some are hard because they suck, but one that I think is GOOD but hard...Maximum Carnage for SNES. How the hell is that even beatable? I had trouble beating it with cheats.

 

[VenomVsSpidey]

Maximum Carnage
Da Vinci Code*
The Lion King for SNES
Street Fighter on the hardest mode to achieve the special ending
Super Star Wars Series
Batman : Revenge of the Joker*
Batman Forever (snes)*
Street Fighter : Turbo
Street fighter : Real Battle on Film

* denotes that the game also sucks.

 

[Erundur]

Maximum Carnage and contra 3 both equally tough games that I have not beaten in my sega years.

 

[King K]

^That one. Holy crap was it hard. I'd use game genie to warp to the last level and still couldn't beat.

Zanac was tough as hell too.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

I can't beat Mega Man games without using an emulator.

Ninja Gaiden Black was really hard. I never played it after awhile and traded it in.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

Ghosts n' Goblins
Ninja Gaiden on the NES
Castlevania

All three of these were and still are impossible

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

80-90% of all NES games

as fun as they are, they are hard as hell

Game Genie saved my ass many, many times
