It's not only your opinion... in all my really long gaming experience as well, Ninja Gaiden (Black) on original XBOX has definitively won the award of the hardest game of all time I ever played.test_of_valor wrote:
In my 14 years of gaming, there is only one game that I can say is the hardest one I played. The first Ninja Gaiden on Xbox. I mean, the difficulty is just insane, I couldn't get past Chapter 10(I think it's Military Supply Base) even on Normal. But it's amazing regardless.
That game is the only one that I will ever consider the absolute masterpiece of gaming industry, mostly because there are so many restrictions. Hell, even the producer/director of Team Ninja(sorry, can't remember his name now) said in an interview, that he is drunk when making games.
Later, they went AWOL with Ninja Gaiden 2 and made it easy as hell(I don't know if he was on that project).
This is all my opinion, of course.
It's not even funny how the first boss is hard... in normal mode. Then you get hard mode, very hard mode, and master ninja mode... wtf how can someone even go over very hard mode ?!?! I was s***ing bricks the whole time in hard mode and ugh... I don't think I completed that mode yet (and I bought that game in 2006).
and yes, Ninja Gaiden 2 on XBOX360 was a joke compared to that cruel, cruel game.

The original Ninja Gaidens for the NES are much, much harder than that.

I bought the boxed game when I was 10?
but from what I remember, I never even got the helicopter to lift off.
It came with this
instruction book
telling you most keyboard shortcuts (you use pretty much all keys, with combinations of ctrl, alt)
would be funny if anyone can relate lol.

In terms of game difficulty, Sands of Destruction on the DS I found pretty difficult, and any game I had on the Sega Dreamcast, so Bangaioh and Fighter Zero. I found them difficult, gameplay wise and because I couldn't understand much Japanese.

I've heard that the storyline bosses in other SMT games were harder.
They are.WhoAteFred wrote:

SMT is also not for people who dislike grinding and actually having a plan of attack.
Sonic 2... on the Game Gear. Can't beat the first boss
Persona3 FES: The answer
so damn hard

Zone 4 boss is difficult just to reach. Sonic 2 on the Game Gear was fucking mercilessHeadHunterX wrote:

This. And even if you don't use Metis for whatever reason, you can just grind very easily.Ivalset wrote:

Metis is the best character in persona 3.
Mitsuru begs to differ. But then again, I didn't ever take out Metis, since she was the most boss thing in The Answer. Several of my IRL friends couldn't stand her (so I got new friends).Ivalset wrote:

Wipeout 64.
Now I know what you're thinking, but really, it's hard. Try steering with an n64 controller. Not only is it painful for your thumb but also extremely frustrating.
(That is if you don't cheat right away and choose Piranha II)

Not even close. FeMC, maybe.
DoDonPachi and its sequels, Mushihime-sama Futari, Ibara. Arcade shooters win by default since they're designed to kill you quickly and take your money.
I wanna be the guy is worthy of mention but, it's mostly built around pattern memorization and not actual difficulty. Plus it has a save feature, so it might take you forever but you'll beat it eventually. Not what I'd consider hard.

Dwarf Fortress. Never had in my entire life attempted to defend a fortress of over 400 dwarves until now.
I'm absolutely terrible at Touhou and Megaman games.
With Touhou, there are so many bullets on the screen that I lose focus and die. With Megaman, I can never make it past bosses. By the time I'm actually able to dodge their attacks, I'm either dead or about to die.

Ninja Gaidens for Xbox/Xbox 360 are all around challenging even on the easiest difficulty. I don't think I passed any of the bosses on first try. I actually beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on mentor difficulty(took some time...) only to unlock master ninja and realize I can't beat the first level.
And a case I recently stumbled upon: Tomba/Tombi on PSX. At first it's easy going, but then there's this cave with no floor and enemies flying all around. Drained all of my lives I had collected

I had a demo of Tombi on my PSX when I was a kid, It was my favourite game on the platform at the time xDThimeeh wrote:

Unofficial would be QWOP. Otherwise its Superman 64 on the n64. That is literally one of the worst rated games in history.
I had that on demo too. When I recently got the PSX emulator to play FFIX again, I remembered Tombi and few others from those demos of my childhood so I got them too. The demo gives really wrong image about the brutality of that game. It really hurt my HC-gamer pride to admit that I can't beat that gameAzure_Kyte wrote:

Ninja Gaiden 2
fuckfuckfuck I'm never going to touch it again, I'm afraid I'll break my xbox.

You should. It's one of the best games on the system. Partly because it offers some challenge unlike most of the games nowadays.GladiOol wrote:

Another crazy PSX game: Bust-A-Groove. As a kid I had this on a demo as well, although I never managed to beat it. Thinking I was a kid then and could handle it as an adult. It can't be that hard as I remember it, I just didn't understand the mechanics.
Can't beat the first stage. xD
Well, I've got a new hardest game. Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine. First five stages are throwaway easy, but each level is tougher than the last and by Stage 6 or 7 they're squeezing you by the balls. I'm at Stage 10 with no end in sight, and I can't imagine it getting much more difficult without it boiling down to a pile of luck or a requirement that I use a Tool Assistant in order to actually place objects where I want them to go (which afaik is impossible on a PS3)
Just wait until you get to Robotnik. (i'm assuming you havent changed your settings and are playing on Normal.) He's relentless and a genius, just as he's known for. He throws chains and combos you couldn't come up with in seconds time like he can.awp wrote:

Actually I'm pretty sure I set the game to Easy (if that's an option)
Yu-Gi-Oh Forbidden Memories... GOD, the bit where Joey goes missing and you have to fight the guardians of the tomb and ARGH FFFFS
Surprisingly, I had very little difficulty after Stage 10, and Robotnik only took me about 10 minutesRemmyX25 wrote:

I'm gonna be obscure and throw out playing Resident Evil 5 on the classic controls easter egg. Now that is an interesting challenge.
Great game, too bad the gameplay has some flaws and is very easy if you know how to make chains. I recommend Puyo Puyo! 15th Anniversary, the best one in the series.awp wrote:
