The original Ninja Gaiden's for NES were ridiculous.

Put me down for some of those side-scrolling shooters like R-type.

DAMN some of these bring back serious memories. I'd have to say some of the damnable and frustrating games are those that just go on forever and ever and ever and ever from back in the day. However, one game that I don't think has been mentioned, but I must for sure point out as a frustratingly difficult damn game was SPY HUNTER on NES!!!!!!!!!!!! That FUCKING GAME. When you died you had to restart SO DAMN far back.... oh my, it was frustrating.

ANother was Ninja Gaiden. I got to a point, that I could find no way to get past. My friend and I played all night long and just had to turn it off after staring at the same place for 3 hours. I got so good at the first several levels I could beat them untouched. Then, I'd just have to turn it off cause I couldn't get past this one spot. .... I should pull that game out now, 20 years later and kick its ass!!!!

I've been playing GTA3 all this week in an attempt to beat it (all the missions) since I never really got around to it... and to add to my earlier post, this game is pure EVIL.

Games get frustrating at times, but I think this tops them all. I've never yelled at a game so much in my life like I have this week with this game.. definitely THE MOST difficult/frustrating game I've played in a while.

One mission in particular that I had me pissed beyond belief was the "Kingdom Come" mission you get from King Courtney. It's the one where you go to this secluded parking lot of sorts, and these 3 vans keep pumping out these suicide bomber guys, and the goal is to destroy the 3 vans. Even with full health/armor, ONE hit from them will waste you. To top it off, they run faster than you. Took me 2 hours to finally get it, and it was pretty much by accident.

...and the rampages are just nuts. Some of 'em are easy, like when they give you a bazooka and tell you to blow up 15 cars in 1 minute, 30 seconds. Others are just whacked out, such as killing 30 triads in (forget the time, but it's not much) with JUST an Uzi. That shit's damn near impossible.

Umm, dumb question, but can you possibly find a screenshot of ye old magician lord, I *MAY* have played that game, but have trouble remembering if I was playing the game you're talking about, or something entirely different. But from the name of it, I think it's a game that I played on Neo Geo and you walked around as a Mage blasting shit, but it was harder than crap to get through anything.

Maybe I'm just totally off base, but the game I was talking about was incredibly frustrating.

Missile Command anyone? Especially on the old Atari with the controller that you need lumberjack forearms to operate. The thing about playing this game was that it made you realize just how freakin scary nuclear war really was. "Sure," you think, "I can handle a few incoming ICBMs." Next thing you know, you've just got the one city and the one base left, and all you can think is "Everyone I know and love is going to be incinerated. Oh f*ck oh f*ck oh f*ck!!"

All the NES, SNES, Genesis, Sega Master, Turbo Gfx, ect. games that are considered 'hard' is all about figuring out patterns. Once you do, it's a cinch.

real difficult games for me were those that were made buggy. Even if I had the right solution, the game would crash, or the programming would loop itself around and made it literally impossible to move on with the game. Surely nothing can be more difficult then impossible.

The hardest game I remember playing was SwordQuest for the Atari. Maybe it was because I was young and didnt' full understand what I was supposed to be doing. But to date that's the hardest game I can remember playing.

Gargoyle's Quest on the Game Boy. I completed it once all the way through relatively easily and loved it, so started playing again, but have been unable to complete it ever since.

It had bad ass music though.

I beat both the side scrolling Ninja Gaiden games for the NES as well as the new Ninja Gaiden for the Xbox. But by far the hardest game I've ever completed was the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the NES. I had to record it on my VCR to learn the levels. It wasn't even that great of a game...I just had to nail it though.

TMNT was hard.. I'm assuming you're talking about the first one and not the Arcade Game.

I hated that underwater level with the seaweed .. ugh that used to piss me off so bad.

DROD (Deadly Rooms of Death) for PC. You can find it available for a free download in a version called Caravel DROD.

HARDEST PUZZLE GAME EVER

After a few weeks of off/on playtime, I've only made it to the 6th level (out of I think 25). It just keeps getting harder and harder.

I always found Thexder for the Apple IIgs to be harder than hell. The first level was a piece of cake. The first half of the second level was a piece of cake. The second half of the second level kicked my ass. I got through it ONCE in something like 5 years of off and on trying. And that one time, I was killed almost immediately in level 3. Still, an awesome game.

OMG, that reminds me of Xenocide for the IIgs. There were like 5 worlds. Each world was a speeder mission on the surface and then a few 2-d maze-type levels. One time I got to the second world and died on the surface. It was one of the hardest-ass games ever.

Hmmm, hardest game ever?

Only game I wasn't able to finish was this old one on the IIgs wherein you had to program this little robot to do things by designing the damn chips inside him. You had a variety of logic gates to use and each chip had 8 input/output tabs. The input/output tabs could be connected to motors, to move him, and sensors, to provide input. You had to build each chip from scratch, or use ones you had built earlier, nested inside new ones. For one puzzle, I used over 400 logic gates in around 30 chips, heh.
One puzzle, you had to program him to make it through a maze where the walls were invisible and you couldn't enter, you had to be in a different room where you could see the maze, and hopefully get it to finish it on it's own. If I remember correctly, he had to process over 150 different steps to make it through the damn thing, heh.

Wish I could find a version to play now, as this was back in '84 or '85 while I was in middle school. Played it on the computer in the library. That was a blast to play, though.

Anyone have any clue what it was called?

battletoads, bar NONE. i don't care what anyone says battletoads was ranked hardest by about every single magazine that reviewed it.

Hell, even wtih the game genie, you couldn't beat some levels w/out HOURS of practice...\

One other game thatw as hard as hell: Werewolf..the levels were LONG, there were only 5, no save points, and the controlls were backwards from normal. A was attack and B was jump...talk about freaking HHHAAARRRDDD

Try farcry on the hardest level, gawd! The bad guys dont cheat, they play smart! You will not beat this game on hardest level before mastering every weapon, in the game, and using major tactics.

Bah, the last level was just laziness on the developers part. The whole idea of sticking you in the corner with nowhere to go, while you get pelted with nades and headshots is not even fun. That was probably the best 9/10s of a FPS ever. The last 1/10th was pure shit.

I've given up on it already and I'm only on the level where you get the hang glider. It's just too damn hard. What's with all these mercs using "tactics" and being "clever"? It's just not cricket to put enemies in an FPS that pose any greater challenge than throwing a grenade before running directly towards you.
