Games That are Hard as Hell
List your greatest gaming feats!

I've been going through a list of retro games that people consider HARD.


I just finished Ghosts n' Goblins (both loops) on NES. JFC it's the most frustrating game I've ever played. The controls are not great, and there are constant cheap hits. By far the angriest and happiest I've ever been playing a game.

I've 1 death'd Contra on NES. (far easier than people think)

Beat Ghouls and Ghosts on Genesis (this game is by far the best in the series)

Beat Super Ghouls and Ghosts on SNES (slow as ****, and pure memorization)

Mind you, it's pure attrition to get through these games. I don't use save states, I play the games as they originally would be played with checkpoints and continues.

After beating Demon's Souls remastered a few times, I went back and finished bloodborne. What a ****ing ride. I'm on the last boss of the DLC, which btw is very high quality. It's one of my favorite DLC's of all time. New weapons, levels, enemies, bosses...

I'm already gearing up for Sekiro, but I'd really like to pay $20 and it's just not there yet.

The Apple 2 games I played were Hard Hat Mack, Karateka, and Castle Wolfenstein.

No joystick, either. Ugh.

Yup those made me fall in love with gaming, oh the days....

Hard hat Mack I sucked badly at lolz, like Dragons Lair at the arcade.

Spinoff NON thread ..What Stand up arcade games were you addicted to?
Mine was Front Line by Taito, I could play for hours on 1 quarter.

**** Caslevania. I can handle getting my ass beat by Mike Tyson in Punch Out but I'll be damned if I'm going to spend time on a game where stairs are your toughest opponent.

Groan.

Castlevania.

I can get to Dracula the old fashioned way, can never beat him.

Simon's Quest was a mother ****ing joke compared to I and III.

I was addicted to quite a few arcade games. when i was down to my last quarter, I would play Time Pilot. the best i did on one quarter was to roll the game 2x. I really liked BMUps too. my friend and I beat Ninja Warriors with $8. I had 3 friends play D&D shadows over Mystara with me. we beat that with $22. and then we did it again with $8.

I was probably 8 years old when I played it. Was very hard at that time, and I believe I got stuck because I threw away Dynamite which was needed to access one of the first dungeons. Also, the dungeons at the time were big confusing mazes; easy to get lost. But this game was awesome, especially for the time.

Fiance has a Nintendo Switch, and with the membership you get a free NES and SNES emulator with free games.

NES Ninja Gaiden is on there. Hard as **** just as I remember but still fun as hell.

I thought finishing Legend of Zelda was a big accomplishment back in 1985 or 1986.

Today my big thing is point and click or escape room games like Submarine Series from Matuez Skuknik
