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.
