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).

That's why there's the Konami Code~ (Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A, sometimes Start)

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.
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.
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... 8-)

Metroid Prime
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 Trilogy :) )was definitely the hardest, every freaking enemy goes into Hypermode as soon as they see you. So annoying.

That and Super Meat Boy.

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.
Aoriki
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...)
Hiza-chan
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 iirc
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

osu! :P
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)

Any NES game, specially Mega Man 2 and Battletoads.

Honorable mentions: Etrian Odyssey and Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor. (DS)
Sena Aizawa
if it's without cheat, maybe (in my opinition) the game that the hardest is Earthbound in SNES

fight the boss ?, must use the tactics, wrong step ?, lose.
Maybe not hard as we have the tactics lol

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...)
Nanael_old
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 :(
XSCX
Touhou 6 Extra Stage was probably the hardest thing even for me x.x
PROGUY
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 :/)

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 if it counts, if not then All Rhythm games
lavalake
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.

I managed to beat it after awhile, but it required a lot of duel grinding on specific elders for OP high attack cards.

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? =O
Clestis
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

Yu-Gi-Oh Forbidden Memories
I forgot how much i suffered during the final moments of the story

lol I kind of agree...

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 =.=

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. :( :( :(
Falapalagas
First playthrough of Dark Souls and Catherine.

Ceph23
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.
Chainsaw-chan_old
later parts of ninja gaiden
that's if we're talking about offcial games
Neroh
Platformers >.>
one specifically I found really difficult, Astro Boy: Omega Factor for the GBA on the hardest settings, it took me hundreds of attempts to even get past the first few levels.
Doodle99
Touhou 11.
and pokémon hacks
Varetyr
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
Sal32
Well I had a hard time fighting Dante in Devil May Cry 4 with Dante Must Die! difficulty.......

I think League of Legends wins since the player base is so difficult.
Xcrypt
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.
druidxd
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.
Shellghost
I don't think anyone said LoL was difficult. I said the playerbase is difficult.

As in difficult to deal with.

As in they're all retards.

As in explaining jokes.
