Castlevania Chronicles in Original Mode (which is a just a straight port of the game that was originally released on the Sharp X68000).

Fucking sadistic difficulty once you hit the 4th stage, but it's entirely consistent so it's okay if you're willing to sit down and learn each stage and what you're doing.

Did you give up before getting the ability to block the soldier's bullets with your arms? Those parts are what made me lose my mind, but after you get that it only gets better and better imo.

I don't even want to discuss the ridiculous twist in that game with you because it would be a disservice to anyone reading this who hasn't played it yet.

Seriously if you have never played Breakdown, order it online, buy an Xbox if you have to, that game will throw you for a loop.
