Hard to say, there are quite some games that feel impossibly hard. Just from the top of my head, I'd say Ghouls and Ghosts. I'll never understand how such a game, that's made of pure frustration, could have ever become so popular.

Hardest video game you've encountered?

Now that I really think about it. It has to be Ace Combat 6 on Ace difficulty (Landing repair is disabled, not to mention that the enemies are more stronger and more accurate) or Ace Combat: Assault Horizon on Ace (Health regeneration is disabled, not to mention that the enemies are deadly accurate).

I think it had something to do with when you beat the final boss it makes you play through the whole thing all over again just to see the ending. It's just plain evil if anything.Nyarlor wrote:

Don't worry, I've only ever gotten as far as the fifth level I think. Still had fun with it though.
for me is golden sun, megaman battle network 1 & 2 and age of empire... 
Prime was...meh...in the difficulty department. MP2 was really hard just because the two dimensions thing was ridiculous to figure out. But MP3 on Hypermode difficulty (yay Trilogyvizzy wrote:
Metroid Prime
)was definitely the hardest, every freaking enemy goes into Hypermode as soon as they see you. So annoying.Probaly Osu! That's why I like it so much. Other than that I'd say Starcraft II. Not so much on the singleplayer department, but when you start playing the MP aka the real deal shit just gets too tough for my nerves. I wanna be the guy isn't really a hard game. Its more about memorizing stuff. Yeah, I've beaten it a couple of times.
You all can laugh at me when I say what the hardest game I encountered....
Megaman x, Legend of Zelda I and II (There's a reason why they are hard for me...)
Megaman x, Legend of Zelda I and II (There's a reason why they are hard for me...)
I'd have to say, Dark Spire. I got to level 8 or so and just couldn't handle the game :<. One time, I started to play it, walked into the tower and took like 3 steps, got into a battle and died. Had to start over..I think it's hard anyway.
since im in malaysia i played multi through the taiwan + korean server iircbocca wrote:

general rule of thumb the last time i tried:
you meet a korean, you meet your doom

Going by that just about every competitive multiplayer game is hard.
On the basis that there is always going to be someone better than you/can beat you.
On topic: Unfortunately I haven't really come across any hard games lately. F-Zero GX still kicks my butt though.

Resident evil..... can't finish this game without walkthroughs xD
Castlevania : SOTD , player over 1 month & just 99% game completion , & clearly played with 200% game completion after 2 years 
osu! 
A lot of people say the Touhou games are extremely hard, but they're just predictable patterns of bullets... on easy difficulty. Anything above that, and you'll get your ass handed to ya.
Though I usually find the Kingdom Hearts games very difficult (then again, I always play them on the hardest difficulty)

All games of fight for me impossible

example : Street Fighter , Mortal Kombat , KOF

Sena Aizawa
TH 10 Extra stages
Touhou probably
Any shooting games.... I can't imagine anyone can finish the game WITHOUT getting shot 1 time or died 1 time. ( so here i was imagining how does the real heroes of world war survive...)
Probably by either getting hurt at the very beginning, practically not shooting or by flawless teamwork. People in the front-lines are pretty much bound to die.This doesn't mean that I think expert soldiers do not exist, but a lone wolf in war, surviving? It sounds really hard.
SNK vs. Capcom: Chaos. That overpowered Mr. Karate made even Shin Akuma looking like a bitch, plus the fact that he blocks all the time and uses that SAME Kooh-ken/Uppercut combo. Made me cry when I can't even beat him with Terry
Touhou 6 Extra Stage was probably the hardest thing even for me x.x
Hardest games I've played list:
GB: Pokémon Yellow (Until you know what you're supposed to do, you're pretty much dead.)
PS1: Digimon World 3 (Actually this game's difficulty is sorta artificial.)
PS2: Burnout Paradise(?) (At least the sequel makes up for the cons in this one.)
PSP: DJMax Black Square (Also considered artificial, since some of the missions get freaking ridiculous, starting with ones that require to have a perfect 100% accuracy.)
PC: Touhou 13 - Ten Desires (Everything is freaking slow in the first three stages. In the other three, it gets way faster. In short, there's a weird difficulty spike in the game, or that's how I feel. I haven't even unlocked the Extra Stage yet :/)

#1; NES: Shadowgate
#2; NES: Spelunker
#3; NES: Battletoads
My older brother used to have a box in the garage that contained an NES, and those three games.
I should have never opened it. . .

Anyone heard the game "Pandemic"?
It's just a Flash game though.
But seriously, never encountered a hard game....... I wonder why?

Touhou 13 on normal, in my opinion, is the hardest game.
People might disagree, but I just can't seem to beat it even with continues.

Ragdoll Laser Dodge was a funny and challenging game, but only when you get to the point where you get hit from two directions, then it's just mental.
Probably every Game I can't play.
Far Cry 1 was a bit challenging, hence those Trigens on Challenging Diff. o3o
Touhou and Digimon world DS
all of the games i encounter are the hardest
I managed to beat it after awhile, but it required a lot of duel grinding on specific elders for OP high attack cards.Katze wrote:

I've been playing final fantasy tactics 1.3 (insane difficulty). Some of the battles in that mod are almost unfair.

Was there really an insane difficulty? =OVulf wrote:

Samurai Warriors-Sometimes is very hard to fulfill some of the mission in the story mode, or there's not enough time to do that.
also playing at chaos difficult is almost impossible.
God Hand - Fight multiple enemies at the same time is pretty difficult

I can say... Any classic Megaman games.
Pokemon, regardless what you say.
Elite Beat Agents
I Wanna Be The Guy is easy once you know all the traps.

I still remember Rockman II (Japanese title for Megaman). I dunno how many times Wiley made me rage at the final stage cause only bloody bubble works on him and I had to test out all the weapons one by one =.=
I think Touhoumon (a doujin game) is more difficult than original Pokemonbattler077 wrote:

Electronic Super Joy
People says Touhou pretty tough, but its not really.
Then again I don't have the shooting touhou games (even though I tried it), just the fighting ones ( 10.5 SWR and 12.3 UNL playing on Lunatic difficulty )
Dark Souls is probably one of the more difficult games I played, but I got used to it after a while and It's only somewhat harder then I thought it was. Skyrim hard as balls on highest difficulty setting,
but Street Fighter IV gotta take the cake. I feel pretty intermediate at that game, but it gets so fucking hard.

I don't think there was a video game that challenged me more than the original Devil May Cry 3
The one where the default difficulty was set to hard.

Probably Streets of Rage 3.
NOT Bare Knuckle 3, but Streets of Rage 3.
JAP version was ridiculously easy, but the US version is just an abomination.
Honestly, Hard diff. in BK3 is a lot easier than SoR3's easy diff... wtf

i just started playing league of legends like yesterday and holy christ that game is difficult
I think League of Legends wins since the player base is so difficult.Luxie wrote:

League is so casual pvp... It has a steep learning curve and it takes ages before you know all the tricks n shit but that's really all there's to it.
Also the community is probably the worst of any game I've ever seen.

People claiming that League is actually difficult :facepalm:
Not even the original DotA (which is that much harder than LoL) is difficult, it has a steep learning curve but it's actually really simple, becoming a pro player on the other hand, IS difficult, but it's difficult for any game, so it doesn't count.
P.S.: I'm not trying to fight LoL players saying that dota is harder than LoL btw.
