Forums - Gaming - Over-rated hard games.

The original GnG is the prime contender here, but I'll get into that later. Just list the controller-smashing hard games you think are vastly over-rated and give a breif, flame-free reasoning.

What the hell, so none of you know what a bullet hell is?

God Hand - game has a totally light tone and is trying to be funny...untill the CPU hands your ASS to you.

Battletoads - hardest game I ever played. Would never beat it without Warp zones

Ninja Gaiden(xbox) - game has the balls to make itself super hard and then has more balls to make fun of you when you switch to an easier setting. Ninja Gaiden Black fixed this tho...



Ghouls 'n Ghosts is insanely hard but then Capcom had the balls to make the game even more difficult when they released Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts on the SNES that game is one of the hardest games ever I can't get past the first level. The Ninja Gaiden games on the NES also qualify as one of the most overrated hard games.



All the ninja geiden games... i got sigma and got furstrated so much that i quit playing after the boss on the zeplin thing

At least Super GnG gave you magic and double jumps to defend yourself with; Ghosts n' Goblins has niether of those, sh1t hit-decetction, no mulit-derectional aiming, and freaking poison ladders. That game is a half-finished beta at best and one of the worst ports Capcom has ever created and will create for the rest of it's existance.

At least Contra gives you good weapons and a buddy to play with....

Ghost and Goblins is the hardest arcade game I ever played. Commando comes second.

On computers and consoles the hardest was Rick Dangerous.

Over-rated in what way?  In terms of difficulty or overall quality?

If it's difficulty, I'd say Battletoads.  Wonderful, wonderful game.  Everyone says it's really hard, and yeah it's tough, but not as tough as people make it out to be.

Over-rated in terms of reputation, as in it's praised like some sort of signifigant achivement because of the complex design and level of skill it takes to beat it, when in reality it's glitchy and just plain broken.

Maybe the games aren't over-rated, maybe the players are under-skilled.
