Most difficult game you played

[Monk]

Dwarf Fortress.

Super Meat Boy too... god.

[Graphic]

Ninja Gaiden for X-Box and Shinobi for PS2. Both ridiculously difficult ninja games.

[ReluctantSamurai]

Parasite Eve I & II for the original Playstation. Nightmare Mode was well nigh unwinnable.......

[gaelic cowboy]

The Alien section of the Alien versus Predator Gold

I read somewhere that very few people ever completed the whole game and to this day I still have only completed the Predator and Marine sections, it was just way too confusing and disorienting running up walls etc.

The 360 and PC game that was released lately was nere a patch on the old one for difficulty

I've been trying to get the big boss emblem for the last week on MGS4, I think its been the hardest time I've had with a game.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

Dorffortress (for five minutes), XCOM (specifically Terror From The Deep), Red Orchestra (that was fun though), Stalker: Call of Pripyat (I think it's harder than the first one which was more scary than difficult but still challenging).

[Motep]

Resident Evil 4. Not hard because it was hard, but it was hard because I did not have the ability to save. Always vigilant...so...many....stupid...deaths....hours....lost...

[Scienter]

STALKER was hard but I think the hardest game I've ever played is Europa Universalis III. TC tried to get me to play it and I just couldn't get into it. There were too many variables to keep track of and the lack of a goal in the game didn't give me an incentive to figure it out.

I think the Alien parts were the best! Each to his own I guess, I thought the marine parts were the most difficult, 'cos I got scared!

Anyway - an old game called The Lost Vikings is probably mine

[Fragony]

Myth 3 probably

[edyzmedieval]

Takeda (the original) and U.S. Navy Fighters 97.

They are my up there in my list of favourite games, but I never managed to finish any of them. Takeda had a damn difficult campaign, I got stuck towards the end at assaulting Gifu fortress which was almost impossible without losing almost all of your generals.

U.S.N.F. - landing on an aircraft carrier, out of 100 tries I managed 2. The aircraft carrier was moving, the graphics were bad and it was impossible to land. I only managed to finish three missions from the first campaign.

Oh god yes, I must agree that that was a pain! But I did find it quite rewarding and even managed not to completely suck at it.

[CountArach]

Super Meat Boy... Argh...

Killzone 1. 2 was rather difficult as well at times, but 3 was much easier.

Oh and Victoria. How could I forget that?
