1st MP i played was 3. Decided to play it on hard (whatever the max. diff. is on first playthrough) That Ice boss was HARDCORE and i died tons, infact i got stuck close to end of the game where you have to protect some soldiers while running along a path. Gave up on it and haven't played since but i will prob. buy the MP trilogy and maybe replay 3 on an easier difficulty next time.
Yes its hard and thats a good thing.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
