it is not that difficult but i will concede that the cold war part of the american campaign suuuucks.

this is not a matter of "it is not that difficult" otherwise this whole thread could be argued (ie: diddy kong racing really isnt that hard)

i just can't play that game

i am doing it wrong or whatever, i can't do it

i cannot beat a cpu on easiest in skirmish

or i think maybe i oculd but less-easy-than-easiest was instant murder

mickey mania on genesis.

i had this game for so many years. It was a challenge throughout my adolescence, and as I got older I was able to get slightly farther. At some point (that last time I played it, probably 13-16) I actually made it to the last level, though I didn't really know it was the last level at the time, but I could never manage to beat it. I'm pretty sure I made it to the very last boss that one time.

I'd like to get it now and try to beat it.

Out of this World

I have never loved a game and hated it so much at the same time as I did with this game. Towards the end I would do a victory dance every time I got a new password.

Also Silent Hill 2 on Hard Mode is fucking unreal.  Especially when you have to run away from the Pyramid Head without getting Maria killed and she fucking walks away from him. Also, on the final boss after you've wasted 3/4 of your ammo and healing items in the Pyramid Heads. I am never going to play Silent Hill games on Hard Mode ever again.

Out of this World definitely defeated me. I've never played a harder game to be honest. Honestly though it's partially due to bad game design... Cool graphics though.

The last "Preview Lap" in Burnout 3. You have to be CONSTANTLY BOOSTING, and this was SDTV so I couldn't see the traffic ahead very clearly, that plus the boost blur effect made it so you could only get gold if you were exceptionally lucky or you memorized the entirety of the course (the traffic is the same every time, yes I played the track enough times to notice this).

Normally, games don't beat me, but one that I refuse to play again because it pissed me off to the point that not even turning off the game stopped me from raging over it was Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games for the Wii. So help me, the controls were ridiculous. I mean, who swims with their arms flailing out in front of them and snapping their fingers? And then the whole "shoot the clay disks with your back turned toward the ideal direction." part of the game.

Aside from that, games don't beat me... Hell, I've started going back through the older games and trying my luck at speedruns for a bit of a challenge. Such as...

I can't beat Mario and Luigi superstar saga because I just don't have the patience for it. My brother had to beat the princess peach in the desert part for me, because it was driving me mad.

I also remember giving up on Minish Cap around the bird area in the sky. I can't remember it for crap except that I pretty much never touched it again.

Also, I never beat Halo 3 in mythic (basically slaso skulls or whatever).  Requires hours of work, and even with a team is just so fucking painful.

Ninja Gaiden (nes): the final stage is impossible. It's a kick in the balls that when you lose, you go back at the beginning.
Zombies Ate my Neighbors: the last levels are unreal.
Ghost n' Goblins: I could never beat the "second quest", when I reached that place I was out of continues.
Silver Surfer: hardest game ever. :(



Out of this World is easy! It's just trial and error. Flashback is hardcore.

Trial and error? Maybe.

But even when you know what to do, the controls are so terrible it's hard to accomplish.

I got up to 8 before I started dying a bunch. I think the sequence for that one might get off rhythm when you die because without zig zagging back and forth, I couldn't even get one of the yellow balls after my first run where I was able to nab them all but made a stupid mistake getting back the other green block. Its pretty fun though, I'll give it another try later.

You beat those levels? Here, have some more. By the way, these are even harder. Hope you like instant death. Wait...no, seriously. You beat those levels too? You need to get a new hobby. Here have an ending, and have some credits while you're at it.

But wait, yeah, you thought you were done? No. Here have another boss. And one try. You sir, are welcome for your game over.

Repeat until insane, or until you defeat the thing - whichever comes first.

I managed to completely beat it once on the Genesis, but if I ever get the self destructive impulse to play through it again, I'd use an emulator and abuse the hell out of save states.

The game's difficulty did do a good job of conveying the hopelessness implied in the "normal" ending though.
