Most difficult games you've played

I used to have all of the Tomb Raider games, but I could not get on with controlling Lara Croft and I would always get stuck somewhere on a lower level, even with cheat codes!

Ditto trying to complete the last bosses in the earlier Doom games, I'd always have to use the cheat where you could go inside the monster and shoot the head. In comparison, the cyberdemon at the end of Doom 3 was really easy

Also, I found Silent Hill 4 with the ghosts that can't be killed really difficult, and I've never defeated the final boss, whereas other bosses in the series have been really easy

It took me a while for old tomb raider games too. The graphics made it mostly hard to see which cliff you have to jump etc. The newer ones were all pretty obvious imo.

I remember that I was stuck for a while in Silent Hill for PSX when you´re in that school doing the piano puzzle xD I probably would have never solved it without internet.

Also the first Final Fantasy games demanded a lot of patience.

But so far I completed all the games I´ve played smiling smiley (without cheats!)

I recently made it through Demons Souls. The game was so sadistically hard at times that I broke one of my controllers out of sheer hatred and frustration. I can’t wait to play Dark Souls, its supposed to be even more difficult.

That final battle in Silent Hill 4 was frustrating because I couldn’t figure out exactly what I was supposed to do. There is a strategy for defeating the final boss here.

Any shooter where I must aim with the gamepad, lol. I'm a pc player at heart and the cotroller feels like a masochistic contraption to me, I never learned to properly aim with an analog stick. Really hard games? Some puzzle adventures back from the nineties, like Myst come to mind, lol. Well games from the nineties in general, games that didn't hold your hand, didn't come with on screen prompts or hihglighted objects to make everything easier. And there wasn't no internet to look up for walkthroughs. winking smiley

^^^^
I find it just takes time to relearn how to use the controllers, I take a while to get used to the controls when flitting from PC to PS3

Thanks for that but I already read how to do it, I'm just too crap to do it! I think I need to play it again so the woman doesn't walk to her doom so fast

Battletoads is the only game that I have never been able to finish due to difficulty. Seriously the hardest game I have ever played in my life.

I couldn't figure out where the fuck I was going. I swear me quitting this game was the equivalent of dying in an unsolvable labyrinth.


And man this game sucked.

There were parts of this game that were downright imposible if you didn't know the trick. I think this was one of those games that was designed to make you call those old nintendo help lines that cost $9.99 a minute.

For whatever reason I got stuck in the Ice Cave in Pokemon Silver. Guess who racked up a massive bill on the helplines mentioned above? This guy.

This is crazy. Back in the olden times, I played Van Helsing and this vampire bitch, would not stop killing me. Gave up the game after that! Still haunts me to this day.
Never again has as a game shamed me as that!
