Demon's Souls ain't so bad. It's like Megaman. Remember placement and enemy spawns, and you'll do fine.

Well, 5-2 is evil. TRUE EVIL.

FUCKING POISON SWAMP!

As for the hardest game:

World at War on Veteran.

Fuck you, Treyarch. Fuck you. Did you even playtest Veteran?!

It's a close three-way tie between Maniac mode of Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, Hector Hard mode of Fire Emblem 7, and Hard mode of Fire Emblem: Sword of Seals. Absolutely brutal, all three of them.

...Maybe I'm just not the best at them, but FE games' hardmodes are HARD.

Drakengard is also rather difficult if you don't grind levels and weapons.

I haven't played Demons' Souls yet, but I really want to, seeing as I'm a fan of soul-crushing difficulty.

Exactly what I though of when I saw this thread.

Hardest CoD campaign yet by far due to an abundance of grenades and terrible enemy placement.

Heart of Darkness (PC, think it was on the PSX as well though) - first bloody game my dad ever gave to me.

I was 4. Even he couldn't do it!

I guess Demon's Souls.
I got it on the 28th of December.

It is a difficult game, but once you know where enemies are and what their attacks are like, it isn't as difficult.

And the bosses...
They can be VERY difficult.
Like I said above, after you know what their attacks are like, it isn't as difficult, but it is still difficult.

I love how "Burn 'Em Out", the easy and short mission, turned into one of the hardest.

Don't even get me started on "Relentless", where you start off riding the tank in the forest, and are forced off of it. FUCKING NUTS!

An obvious one but ninja gaiden 2 on the hardest difficulty. It became stressful to the point of spastic arm flailing and seizures

Firestorm on 5-1/5-2 bosses = instant win!

I assume that my "new game +" will be mostly cake thanks to it and my Fragrent Ring.

MP regen, ftw!

I Wanna Be the Guy smashes anything else here. Just try it and see how rage inducing it is.

Depends. If you define hard as having to die repetitively in order to memorize combos, spawns, etc... Probably one of the Ninja Giadens.

If by, actual puzzle solving and thinking I'd say Portal - sure it was funny, but the gravity puzzles were actually fun to think through and try to beat on one go.

Both are hard, but again it depends on what you define hard as.

I remember finding that ring and then after a couple hours of playing, I went to Patches back at the Nexus and saw that he was selling the same ring for 60 000 souls.
That's...kind of a rip off...

Same with that one ring that you can buy from the girl in 3-1.
I can't remember the name of the ring, but you get more Demon's Souls while wearing it.
I'm glad that I didn't buy it. I found it a little bit later on a dead body!

It was one I didn't beat. After hours of trying to get through the part where the japanese with Type 100 hide behind barrels in a cave and aim for the entrance, I just gave up.

And I'm not terrible at CoD either. CoD on Veteran - done. MW2 on Veteran - done. Black Ops on Veteran - done. WaW on Veteran - thanks, no.
