In the old days of gaming, the majority of games on the market were extremely difficult, and led to countless hours of play even in the face of their brevity. However, there are still some games out there that will give even the most hardcore gamer a brain hemorrhage, so here's a look at some of the most difficult games ever committed to consoles.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
LucasArts gave Jango Fett his own game in 2002, and it pulled Star Wars into a much dirtier, rougher, and more interesting corner of the galaxy.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
It's not even funny how hard Ninja Gaiden Sigma was on the first difficulty level! I still love the game and it's probably my second favorite game on my PS3.
The Genius has spoken.
Ninja Gaiden Masochist rightfully at the first place...to be honest ive never played the original one and when I got Sigma the difficulty was like a concrete brick in the face...even the cheap enemies could kill you really easily and the first boos fight was VERY tough (well I actually found DMC3 Cerberus fight to be probably the first boss battle in a game to extremely hard to the point of frustration)
and to be even more honest I would like to have included in the list DMC3 in the "normal" difficulty of the standard edition
Sigma is a cakewalk compared to Battletoads & Ghosts N' Goblins.
WTF are these editors smoking?
I don't know about you permutated, but Ninja Gaiden Sigma was so difficult it was psychotic. After about 6 months I just gave up.
WTF Sigma as number 1? Well the original Gaiden was tougher than Sigma and Black was harder still.
I'd have the original DMC in that list if we're going on hard Modes but if it's default setting then I don't know. I agree with the addition of Shinobi damn I was so relieved to finally beat that game! lol.
But either this reporter hasn't played that many games or he's a fruit loop. I'd stick R-type way up there, that game was difficult!!! I don't recall was the SNES Super ghouls and ghosts tougher than ghosts and goblins? Either way, that game was a beotch too
