The most annoying thing with banjo and kazooie was that if you died all the notes reset. So you try and get all 100, hit 90 and die then you have to start all over again. They fixed that in the 360 port which i finished 100% in about a week.

Contra.

I knew it was hard, but not that hard. I still shiver at the mention of it.
Contra...

OT: When I was a kid I thought I could beat any game with ease after beating the games I owned, I then got Castlevania, it slapped me hard and told me I can't beat shit and kept smacking me with a wooden plank with a nail in it.

I eventually beat it though. I think the fact that I beat so many hard games as a kid is what makes me good at games now.

Most recent for me would be Metal Slug XX. Now I knew it was expecting typical metal Slug difficulty which is what I got for like the first 2 missions, then it started to reach Metal Slug 3 difficulty. If you have played metal slug 3 you know how much that game likes to hand you your ass with a side of bullshit and chips, and XX just started to go there and even surpassed MS3 in terms of obsurd difficulty in some places.

I love you Metal Slug but sometimes you are just a big fucking jerk.

I'm guessing that anything made on the NES is disqualified, because there's hard, then there's Nintendo Hard.

So...games that looked average in difficulty, then almost made me go into controller-throwing-rage.

That would be Explosion Man. christ that game got irritating half way through, especially the way that i tells you to puss out and skip to the next level.

Warcraft III gets an honorable mention, the final missions in that game are insanely difficult.

When you were a kid and you couldn't beat a game. It got stuck in your head, and changes you. Soon your mission in life is to beat the game. and when you reach an age like 12 where your gaming skill has improved, you meet the game again and settle things once and for all.

Sonic 2's Metropolis zone had ownership of my asshole until 3 years later when I became 11. Then I returned to it, tired of the bullshit I put up with, and beat that fucking game and saw the last zone for the first time.

Left 4 Dead 2 on Normal difficulty is significantly harder than I expected it to be. Easy is still really easy, though, so the difficulty progression is kind of jumpy.

I Wanna Be The Guy. I knew it was going to be hard, but I've been stuck on the same room for about 2-3 weeks now, yet I keep playing.
I have no fucking idea how to get out of the first room.

Its basically a "Fuck you" to the player.

Everything in I wanna be the Guy has a solution, everything. While the game may be evil, unfair and a downright bastard at times... its possible to do it all.

Dragon Age raped me on normal. But that's because I didn't think tactical.

NO GAME but Dragon Age have forced me to think strategy at Normal level, I swear! Ever!
Yea the broodmother fight made me its ***** rather fast

But for me it would be SuperC, that game just hated me, I swear it's harder if you play co-op to.

The Water gym in any pokemon game.

I always pick the fire breed, so I get my ass handed to me until I can raise it to like 30. And from then on its more powerful than any other pokemon.

Not really the game but a certain part, back in Chrono Trigger you could accidentally encounter Lavos too soon and get raped by him. Was also a real good WTF moment.

Also the Broodmother fight in Dragon Age: Origins, up till then on normal challenge I hadn't died or lost a fight yet.

Banjo Kazooie 1

FUCKING ICE LEVEL AND UNDERWATER LEVEL!
Freezeezy Peak and Clanker's Cavern? Yeah they were pretty solid, especially freeing Clanker without drowning, that bubble producing fish down there was of little help. And Freezeezy? It's those fucking snowmen, right? I hate those sons of bitches and their smug laughs.

OT: Siren Blood Curse
Those motherfucking snowmen!! I hate those damn snowmen!! D:<

But I love Banjo-Kazooie, one of the best games on the 64 IMO.

OP: Yes that was ridiculously hard, but only because it was poorly made.

Age of Empires III. Whooping those AI enemies was just way too easy.

Jak 2 was insanely difficult, especially if your motor skills are still developing. (I was 9)

DAMN SPONGEBOB!

Shut your festering gob you tit!

Die by my hand and burn in the fiery depths of hell while suffocating slowly on your own internal organs!

May your spongy remains be shattered by those of that god awful 'vehicle' you pretend to be able to drive.

Yeah, pretty challenging. >_>

Super Ghouls n Ghosts made me its ***** for years, finally went back to it and finished it afew months ago but damn it was hard.

the day of the tenticle deserves a special mention aswell, for having that stupidly hard minigame where you had to avoid the old lady, once you started it it autosaved and you couldn't quit it untill you completed it, had to start the whole game again it was so hard.
