ITT: hard as fuck games
Souls babies need not apply.
I never made it past Stage 3 in Shinobi (its the futuristic looking one after the spider boss I think)
Does it emulate well?
I beat this.
Fuck the final boss. It took me three months to beat.
Everything before the final boss, including the second to last boss, is beatable in a day and is incredibly fun.
Fuck the final boss. I got a shitty grade against him. I never want to do it again. But I beat this game.
I wish that game had a level editor.
>>320032815
This game is great. I wish I could beat it.
>>320032815
>>320032815
I downloaded this on my PS3 when was on sale and never played it.
Is it good?
How does it compare to Ninja Gaiden Sigma? The only one I played.
Is it actually hard?
>>320032815
>still cry myself to sleep never being able to beat the blind samurai
>>320032815
>Implying any PS2 game is harder than any of the SoulsBorne games
That's a nice cover. I think I stopped playing at the last level.
>>320032815
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUCK THIS GAME!
>>320032815
HOLY FUCK I LOVE SHINOBI
Why did I forget this game existed? So many hours wasted on it. Fuck that burning city butterfly level.
>>320033121
I CALL DOWN THE WRATH OF THE HEAVENS.
It's more platforming than pure hack n slash unlike ninja gaiden
>>320032815
i bought this long time ago and i havent even removed the seal

>>320033121
This is literally the first thing I thought when I saw the cover.
>>320032815
>>320033852
this
shinobie was meh-tier compared to gaiden black
>>320033205
Just kill four or five of the mook enemies and hit hit him to take half his life, the corridor you fight in is so narrow that they spawn close together.
>>320032815
Fuck this boss.
And the fuck the whole final level.
That game barely holds up today OP.....
>>320034109
>shinobie was meh-tier compared to gaiden black
They're not even the same type of game, I don't care what the cuhrayzee general guys say
Shinobi's essentially a speedrunning game on crack
Ninja Gaiden is you're DMC-style hack-and-slash
I could never beat Seto 3.
>>320033497
Ok.
>>320032815
I remember breaking the combo near the end of a stage and then rage quitting.
>>320034750
What are you even talking about? Unless you're playing as Moritsune on super, that shouldn't be a problem.
>>320034215
Oh my God, you think the blind samurai is a bad boss fight? Its the best boss in the entire game.
AND IT DOES NOT PREPARE YOU FOR THE WORST ONE. FUCK THE FINAL BOSS.
Literally one of the only fights in the entire history of video games to get me angry enough to scream at a wall and want to break controllers.
>>320034030
how is this game? I remember seeing it and never bought it was a kid
>>320032815
I beat this game without realizing Hotsuma could kick to break guards. Fucking Hiruko.
>>320033312
Those load times were the definition of artificial difficulty.
Wasn't the sword sucking your life away unless you were constantly killing shit? And not like a little, it was going really fast.
>>320035275
It was okay.
I still prefer Shinobi but it is an improvement gameplay wise.
>>320035053
>Defeat the game with Moritsune
>Get all 40 Oboro coins
>Unlock the good starter character
>>320033204
One thing you should know is that it doesn't play like a Ninja Gaiden game or the typical DMC-styled hack-n-slash games. Levels are linear with the gameplay focusing more on killing a chain of enemies really fast (You sword will take away your life if you spend too much time dicking around). The difficulty of the game ranks up really fast, so I'm hope you're ready to get mad.
>>320035918
not hard at all
>>320033497I CALL FORTH THE ICY TOUCH OF DEATH
Original DMC3
Yes im not really hardcore
>>320035275
It's more of Shinobi mostly. But the environment will provide a tougher challenge than the enemies this time.
>>320036926
Well, buddy, it's not like it's that easy either.
Although I always thought people overestimated its difficulty.
Still GOAT, tho.
One of my personal top gaming moments was finishing off that final boss. The pain was intense because you had to get through his stupid teleporting pre-battle phase before you could even attempt the difficult part, so retries took forever.
Watch this guy get the Boss Hit on him, it's so satisfying

>>320037361
Oh God that makes me so happy to see that boss get wrecked
Oh God, I later saw him on the top ten hardest bosses ever and he wasn't even in the top five.
I like hard games but I don't want to fight anything harder than this guy.
>>320037361
Impressive.
Also I liked his theme at least.

It wasn't very difficult, just tedious
>>320032815
>first boss is a helicopter
There's this game that takes place on a boat for the SNES where you need to rescue people. You only have certain amount of time. I remember that being pretty hard.
>>320000000
>>320038732
S,O.S?
I've heard of it.
>>320038721
Helicopters are a staple in the Shinobi games.
>>320032815
God Hand is the hardest I've beaten.
Souls games are easy shit, save the latest Bloodborne DLC. I fucking HATE the "DARK SOULS IS HARD" meme
>>320032815
The fucking dogs with knives made me quit this game.
>>320033229
>Implying SoulsBorne is hard
I wake up with a dick harder than SoulsBorne games
>>320032815
>His eyes aren't the glowing pupils
>They're beneath his headband
>>320035162
Never said it's bad. It's just so fucking hard and was a real road block for me. Took me about 2 hours to beat him. Everything else I beat in a few tries except for the final stage and that boss HOLY SHIT WHY WOULD THEY MAKE IS THIS HARD PLEASE STOP I WANT TO PLAY THIS ANYMORE
>>320039584
souls games just feel harder than they are because every other game these days is so fucking easy
I never got around to the PS2 Shinobi games, despite being a big fan of the series in general.
The 3DS game is excellent.
>>320040853
What do you think of Shinobi Legions / X?
>>320033204
>>320035928
Dont go in expecting a game like the Xbox Ninja Gaiden games, its more arcadey if I were to describe it. its pretty fucking good you just to be able to go in and realize that. I'd say it does that aspect of the shinobi series justice however. nothing is more satisfying than getting one long ass chain and then one shotting the boss
>>320036667
its been more than a decade since beat the fucking game and that fucking phrase just woke something hidden deep inside me
>>320041357
Eh.
>>320040416
The only reason people fine souls games hard is because it forces you to be cautious rather than allowing you to go leeroy without knowing the layout of the level first. that and DarkSouls had some shit collision detection, I died more in DaS1 from that than enemies actually posing a challenge or personal mistakes.
