Forums - Gaming Discussion - The toughest games ever.. according to GameDaily

Very very very strange list,

Zelda II was one of the first games ever I played all the way through. I only played the first Ninja Gaiden and that one I consider far more easy than 90% of the Mega Man games. Kid Icarus is IMO a lot easier than Metroid however harder than both Zelda II and NG, and they're not even on the list.



Beware, I live!
I am Sinistar!
Beware, coward!
I hunger!
Roaaaaaaaaaar!

 

 

 At least 62 million Wii sold by the end of 09 or my mario avatar will get sad

I'm pretty sure NG refers to the new 3D titles, not the old serie....



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !

No Minesweeper on max settings = Fail



4 ≈ One

Uh why wasn't Top gun mentioned? You can't even land (withough the power glove that is)

 

Who are you, Lucas from The Wizard? The Power Glove is so bad!

 

Anyway. I don't care for extremely tough games. As soon as I read that the game is very difficult in a review, that's one person who isn't buying that game. That's why I like games that have diffculty select. I don't need to get pissed off playing a game. To hell with that. I do like a challenging game but not one that I have to play the same part over and over again. I don't have time for that. What am I going to do, quit my job?

As for the games on the list, everybody will have a different opinion on what's tough. I always hear people say that Contra is one of the hardest games ever but I had no problem beating it numerous times while just being an average gamer. Super Mario Brothers for the NES is considered fairly easy by most but yet I've never beaten it and eventually just gave up on it.

@bolded,

Yeah, that's exactly the reason we get difficulty settings now.  Back in the 80's they only made games for people without jobs.  I try to go back and play some of the games I had mastered as a toddler, and I don't have the time or the patience for some of that madness anymore.  I can still rock me some Mega Man and Battletoads and stuff, but I'll never ever play the first Dragon Warrior ever again.  I think you need to kill 10 billion slimes before you can get to level 17.

Nearly every game on that list is a joke.

I aprove this post.

Mech Warrior: Cresent Hawks Revenge was one hell of a game. This is the only game I ever stopped playing due to difficulty.

 



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

All I know is that yes--Ninja Gaiden, ANY of the games on Master Ninja mode are indeed some of the toughest **** out there. The rest of the list....



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

Mario kart wii is all about understanding how to exploit the item system. And learning not to take the lead at the very beginning.  Excuse my lack of pc but mario wii has an affirmative action system designed to aid slow drivers.  If you lead too quickly you get punished.

Let the computer lead so that the powerful shells get directed at the computer instead. Then use your item at the last second to take the lead.

Translation:

I must attempt to look cool by saying several games widely regarded as challenging are easy for me.
