Hardest Games Ever

[Cap'n Crunch]

I thought that was the only good Simpons game. Well, that and the arcade one. I didn't think it was that hard. I beat it though.

I never beat SMB 3. The last levels were too hard.

[Krythor]

You got stuck on Mario 3?

What games have you actually finished, then?

[Schimid]

I could only get to the second level in Bart Vs. The Space Mutants.

[ItalianStereotype]

the only games that I have ever wanted to absolutely destroy my controller over were fighting games. for example, in Guilty Gear's later fights I hate how your opponents almost always unleash a 25 hit hyper combo the EXACT moment that you let go of block. even if you hadn't taken a single hit that entire round you are more than likely going to be near death when the computer finishes with you and it's almost impossible to tech hit or counter out of it.

[Perndog]

I definitely agree with Ghosts N Goblins and Battletoads. Most people I've met don't even consider the 5 lives code for Battletoads to be cheating, and I can't imagine ever finishing it with two players.

I was going to say Contra was tough, but I managed to beat that (two players, but still a win) last summer. I always found Metroid, Kid Icarus, and Rad Racer to be difficult, but that might be because I was seven years old when I actually tried to get through them.

Ghost n Goblins NES
Battletoads NES
Turrican to Amiga (I had to have 300 lives instead of 9 to be able to beat it!)

TMNT wasn't that hard you jerks

[Ninjavenom]

FUCK YOU, ZANGEIF.

There's a difference between games that are hard, and games that are hard because they were made really shitty (Bucky O' Haire, Bart vs Space Mutants).

And I'm mad at you all for not even mentioning CastleVania.

That's a good point. Some games were extremely difficult, but mostly because they were so fucking weak to begin with I couldn't care enough to make any progress.

Yea, the first Castlevania was hard... fucking medusa heads and armor axe things...

i beat the bike level of battletoads without cheating :<

[Les Waste]

You lie. Nobody can get past that fucking bike level even if they do cheat

It's not that the entire thing was hard, because as a whole I didn't think it was that tough. But there was always ONE fucking jump I could NEVER make. It was always just a little bit longer than the most the fucking toad could jump. I think I somehow made it by cheating once or twice, but then there was another jump just as long that killed me FUCK YOU BATTLETOADS, YOU WERE A SHITTY GAME ANYWAY

[James]

I'm nominating Metal Gear Solid 2:Substance as the hardest game in the universe. I've actually broken one of my PS2 controllers (something nearly impossible to do) because this thing has pissed me off so much.

Getting all the 1st place scores in all the VR Missions is something I must do. And the game is fun. But if I ever meet Hideo Kojima, I'm going to beat the ever-living shit out of him for some of these.

PS - I'll give anyone $50 to come over and beat some of these missions for me.

[Schimid]

BUCKY O'HARE WAS NOT MADE SHITTY. It was kinda like Mega Man, but, like, 80 million times better.

[Anonymous]

If you held back when you hit the jump, you went higher. Yeah.

The hard part is the end with all the walls. But it has a simple-ish pattern and if you time it right you can still jump over the tall ones.

[KILLADEUCE]

For some Reason i could never BEat Capcoms Strider-

Bionic comando was a major bitch for me too- Then again my reflexes @ 9 years old werent all that hot i suppose I think i did eventually beat that one-

Hell come to think of it- Metal gear itself was a major pain, i could never kill the goddamned metal gear at the end... -I SUK!

[Les Waste]

I did hold back when I made those big jumps, and I still never made them. I think I had a defective cartridge.

And Bucky O'Hare was NOT better than ANY Mega Man game

[crash0814]

Maybe I'm stupid, but I thought the last Monkey Island game was FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE without a walkthrough. How the fuck is anybody supposed to figure some of those puzzles out? AHHHH!! Still a funny-as-shit game, though.

"Iron Maiden? Excellent!...I have no idea why I just said that."

[Spectre X]

Cyborg Justice. One of the greatest games ever, I mean, you can put your opponent back together when they're dead to kill 'em again, but still, the second boss keeps RIPPING MY FUCKING TORSO OFF

[the_dudefather]

ninja gaiden was pretty hard, especially the last bosses and those damnned birds.

i managed to complete castlevania, but through nesticle savestate cheating. woe is me. it is mad ass difficult.

I might just be saying that because of my Mega Man curse. I've yet to beat any boss in any level on any Mega Man game. But I beat Bucky O'Hare.

[Krythor]

I think I've said it before, but I don't care, and I'll say it again anyway.

Megaman is the only game I've ever played that started off fucking impossible, then got incredibly easy towards the end, then fucked you over again on the last stage.

my poor torso

[KILLADEUCE]

Anyone ever beat jackal? I could never beat that godamnd game...
