I know some of you will make fun but the original Banjo Kazooie for N64

I played that game sooo fucking much. Back in the 90s when you couldn't look up guides online instantly, and when I was too young to understand how the game was played, I could never finish it.

I still have my original saves. 2 are at 99:99:999 time or whatever the max was.

Jak 2.

I literally can't believe how hard that game was. Off the top of my head, the level where you have to escape all those cops in the slums, and some turret rail-shooter level. There were a lot more too that my mind has probably repressed.
>>
TimeSplitters 2 maybe. Made by the same dudes that did Goldeneye. It's health and armor based and is a bitch on Hard mode. Most of it is just knowing map layouts and how to handle them. Despite the fact that they upgraded to two analog sticks, the aiming system is still really shitty, like Goldeneye but you can move while you aim (which isn't a good thing necessarily). The first play through usually includes a Lot of dying and questioning whether or not to restart the level completely because you didn't properly use the available health and ammo sources. They do have a checkpoint system but it's not nearly as reliable as that of the Halo series as example.

the first thing I think of when video game, and hardest is pic related


The game was so fucking difficult that legitimately 2 minutes in you'd be fighting a double boss battle

There was so much to learn, and the smallest mistake could mean your death.


Ontop of that it's an old game and had the model of if you died (I think twice?) It would reset your save progress.
Darksouls and whatever childs play trial and error games will never meet its difficulty

Deathsmiles is pretty hard but only in the context of chasing achievements/trophies and leaderboard rankings.

Dark Souls is fairly hard but I never thought it was horrendous.

Sneak King. For those of you who never played it, it's frustrating. I broke the disc before I could even finish the game.

Kane and Lynch games are pretty hard on hard modes.

Aside from these you can pretty much take any shitass NES or Sega game and never complete it because of lack of checkpoints and save features- and those will always be the hardest

Trauma Center UTK 1 and 2 for the Nintendo DS. Dark Souls, I Wanna Be the Guy-fuck those. No game ITT comes close to the level of difficulty these games put my pasty middle-school ass up against. They're comparatively easy. Sure, you could beat the main campaign with crappy ratings without being particularly fast or dextrous, but getting an XS ranking on the X-missions in these games required you to use two styli, or really two mechanical pencils with the leads taken out. I'm ambidextrous and that shit was still rage-inducing. Carpal-tunnel-inducing, even. Bullet hell games are easier.

Literally only the DLC, and even then, only Laurence and Orphan. Rape Horse is overrated, Living Failures is kek tier, and Maria is meh but fun.

The main game is mostly a joke. The hardest story boss is fucking Blood Starved Beast, the THIRD boss, with everything after being laughable if you know how to parry/stagger. The last bosses are especially pathetic, with Wet Nurse using the same tactics as the fucking pigs, Gherman being just a hunter fight like countless others you already did, albeit with great atmosphere, and Moon Presence being potentially the easiest boss in any Souls game, literally asylum demon tier

git gud holy shit
