Top 10 Hardest Games of All Time

I found this on bitmob. I found it interesting that I have never attempted to play any of those games. I'm hardcore casual.

Am I right? Are these hard games?

I disagree with Shinobi, I got through it with no particular problems.

Also, are we talking about games that are challenging hard? Or hard just because they are total dicks? There is a difference, which would actually cause the removal of certain games on this list.

I think they need to take out Kid Icarus and plug in F-Zero GX

Only three games on there that are truly difficult.  The rest are meh.  There is no Ghosts 'n' Goblins, and Mega Man 9 should have Mega Man 2 in its place.

I agree that most of those were hard, but some of them don't deserve to be on that list.

Also, I love that Bitmob takes users' articles and puts them on the main page. It's a really good idea to get new and good writers known by professionals like Hsu and the rest of the staff.

I think the only one that deserves to be on that list is Kid Icarus. In fact, nothing past the 16 bit era should be on that list--I think mine would be almost all 8 bit games.

I guess I'm the only person taking Takeshi's challenge. Anybody else?

Another reason I love Giantbomb... they don't do top 10's.

The games on that list I've beat: Mega Man 9, Shinobi, Devil May Cry 3.

Am I the only one that is absolutely beat by Boom Blox? I couldn't beat that game if my life depended on it!

Kid Icarus and Battletoads were fucking brutal.  And as much as I'd like to see a new Kid Icarus game, I revisited it recently and found it to be just horrible.  I can't believe I played it through to the end as a kid.

Of all those games I've only finished Devil May Cry 3 . It's interesting how straightforward games are these days and you do not feel that frustration in many games .

I don't remember having that much trouble with Metal Slug 3. Maybe I should revisit it in Anthology.

And, as others have said, the hardest game ever is I Wanna Be the Guy, no contest.

I wanna be the guy isn't that hard, it's the same as a few games in that list like Contra, Metal slug, Ikaruga, Mega man and probably Ninja gaiden it's about learning the pattern and takes time I wouldn't say there hard as such because that's how they're all designed.

Battletoads?! I beat that when I was like 7, can't be that hard.
