Hard question to answer really.... it depends on the person playing the said games.  But my friend reckons that Ninja Gaiden black is the hardest.  I never played ninja gaiden so I can't comment on this but I have been playing games a long time (way back into the 1980s in fact) and I think the old school games are some of the hardest of all time.

I reckon that 'Robocop' in the Arcades was one of the hardest games ever, has anyone ever finished the game with only one life?  I can't even get off level 2 without continuing, and even now using MAME32 its bloody hard.

Then theres Green beret (Arcade again), you run from left to right with only your knife to protect you killing 100's of russian soldiers along the way.  I only ever managed to get to level 3 even on the spectrum I could never pass level 3.

What are other peoples views on what is the hardest game of all time to best......  plus I been searching the web and found this...

Completed Robocop in the arcade with one coin although it's so long ago I have no idea in how many lives.

When playing arcade games I only considered it completed if it was done in 1 credit.

But some games I did complete in 1 life in the arcades that are on MAME are:

Black Tiger

Sector Z

Bubble Bobble

New Zealand Story

Cabal

Phantasy Zone

Space Harrier

Pitfall
