Fallout 3. Starts out nail bitingly tense, and turns into a skip in the park by level 15.

Luckily Broken Steel adds a bit of challenge whenever a Super Mutant Overlord turns up, but by that time you should have so many stimpaks that you can just hotkey them and keep mashing the button every ten seconds.

But it's fucking impossible compared to Fable 2. Yeah, the combat is easy, but you may fall once or twice in the game. Of coarse, that doesn't matter, because you CAN'T FUCKING DIE!

Peter Molynators so far up his own arse he's forgot what games are.
QFMFT.

Does anyone else remember playing Fallout 3 and wandering into Fairfax or some place like that... You have about 2 health left from running over some mines, and then 3 raiders start to come at you with knives and guns... if you survive, it's the best feeling in the world. But yeah, once you get your first plasma rifle and set of power armor, you pretty much beat the game. I would have been in favour of not allowing use of the Fat Man till lvl. 15, and the plasma rifle and power armor till lvl. 18 or so.

I'll have to see about that Broken Steel thing, I don't have any DLC.

And as for Fable 2... mine bugged out from day 1 so I spent 3 months levelling up stuck in oakfield and Hobbe Cave and doing jobs until Lionhead released their patch, which did nothing to improve anything, and which was 2 and a half months late anyway.

Fallout 3, especially if you run around with Eugene or Vengeance and 100 Heavy Weapons. However, after I modded the PC version with Renamed and balanced weapons at level 15 it still kicks my arse.

I know this sounds repetitive but Fable 2. Once I got practically any spell to 5 I was able to destroy entire enemy groupings by just releasing a fully charged spell :\

KOTOR-2 has been mentioned.
A certain horribly easy D&D game comes to mind, because at the beginning you suck and at the end... you gain a magic item that regains your health every time you deal damage, to the extent that if you throw a fire pot and hit the massive swarms of enemies, you gain health faster than they can all deal it.

And No More Heroes, unfortunately, suffered from that a bit as well.

I thought the only part of NMH that got easier was the final boss, which was a serious letdown.

This might sound a bit arrogant, but i'd say; every game I've ever played.

Now there is a reason for this beyond the obvious "awesomeness at gaming imbued by the gods of old" and it would be there are two of me.

I am an identical twin, and for many many years a spirit of competitiveness and oneupmanship through all games played has made for some of the most awesome soul calibur and other fighting game matches ever (we can read each others minds) and after about two years non-stop playing Unreal Tournament goty (UT1) and Age of Empires 2 against each other all games have sort of become easy, regardless of the settings or supposed difficulty.

That being said I'm shit at platformers. They're never easy for me.

I'd say it happened after you got the super move that took out half your charge bar, but also a third of a boss' life.

Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess.
All of the dungeons are easy to go through, puzzles are easy to solve, and excluding one mini boss every other mini boss/boss fights were all easy.

I can finish Sonic 2 in probably around 10 minutes nowadays. To be fair though, I did play that game a LOT as a kid.

On L4D I'm playing on Expert these days - only way to get a kick out of it. :)

Also, Fable was pretty easy once you maxed that crazy AoE spell and the mana shield.

Play on hard with Vita off. Holy god is that hard. Big Daddies were designed for Hard mode, and toned down for other difficulties. On hard, each one is a friggin boss fight.

Yeah, one of the aspects I love about the game. I put on MMM for more mobs and more random AI decisions, and Weapon Tweaks + Advanced Cripple Effects to make you really feel the pain. Much better difficulty than the lame Very Hard slider, that just triples monster health.

World of Warcraft, they just dumbed it down incredibly.

Also Oblivion due to the Chameleon enchantments, I almost felt like I had broken the game with that one, so I just used it when hunting for achievements, playing through the parts I had completed several times before, and then regular armor when doing content I haven't done before.

Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess. Compared to older games in this series it became too easy, especially with the sword techniques.
Also what TheProfessor134 said.

Star Ocean: First Departure - at first, game is a little tough, but later on as you level up it only gets easier, especially after lvl 100+ (max 255). The end boss is a piece of cake, and on 255, THE toughest enemy out there looks like a little kitty.

Final Fantasy X - Break damage limit + 255 str = 99999 damage on everything, and it's really easy to get. The only challenge out there are Dark Aeons + Penance, but those are optional bosses. Final boss dies after 2 hits, just because the fight has 2 phases.

KoToR II-You become so overpowered by the end and can kill Sith Lords with ease.
This as long as you left the second part of Onderon until you got Hanharr (and glitched him up to uber-strength and intelligence) you could go through the entire game without trouble I died on only one fight and that was in the bit where you couldn't use your main character.

You've got the He Feeds On Your Tears [http://db.mmo-champion.com/a/3005/he-feeds-on-your-tears-25-player/] achievement then? Or have you heard about the Hard Mode on the 25 man version of Trial of the Champions? Too many whipes = raid lockdown. No no dear sir, hardcore WoW players sure as hell don't have anything to complain nowadays.

In any case, I'll go for Fallout 3, Oblivion and Mass Effect. All of them get incredibly easy once your equipment and stats/perks get good.
