The most difficult fight/mission/part in video game history
 

You know what I'm talking about, the ones that cause curse words that have little meaning, tears, dozens of attempts and the system flying out the window.

Racing Hillary in Vice City
Seymour on the Mountain in FFX
Emerald Weapon on FF7
Shagohad in MGS3
That one on one fight from Tactics

Apparently the final boss of FFXI was supposed to be impossible. People were literally getting banned from the game for beating it.

You had trouble with the Shagohad?

Lazarovic from Uncharted 2 (Crushing mode) was an absolute dick
Matador from SMT Nocturne was another absolute dick
The last boss of Altered Beast (PS2 "remake") is the worst, most unfair boss fight in any game I've ever played

Deep Sea Research facility from FF8 was pretty frustrating. Also Kuja's Palace from FF9 is a nightmare if you screw up your party.

Volgin and then the Shagohad, that whole sequence gave me problems. Also I'm not talking difficulty cranked, I'm talking just plain fucking frustrating.

Lol.

The last series of bosses in ninja gaiden

I remember seymour being hardest in Macalania Temple but I don't think anything from FF is harder than the last dungeon in FF3 or the hall of giants from first FF.

Anything mandatory at least

Never played XI.

Final Fantasy Tactics probably contains most of them. Vs. Weigraf one on one in particular. That shit could actually make your whole game for naught if you didn't train Ramza right. Golgorand Execution Site also gave me a hell of a time.

The first fight with Alma in Ninja Gaiden on Xbox.
Divine Dragon in Legend of Dragoon
Shao Khan in MK: Shaolin Monks. Only way to take him down was with the projectiles. NOTHING ELSE WORKED!
Kai Leng on Insanity on Mass Effect 3.
Theseus in God of War 2

And that's off the top of my head.

Bowser- Mario Bros.

Anything in God of War 2 Titan Mode.

Also, the fucking Ornstein and Smough from Dark Souls. Fuck them.

*undecipherable primal rage roar*

Haven't played them but Seymour on the mountain was won due to Bahamuts OD.

Second island I think, All I know it was abnormally frustrating for the reward.

I believe so, can't remember. Also the Zero missions are painful.

Yes, that fucker :( Also Bethla Garrison used to give me problems.

You choose titan mode, I mean normal difficult.

Also, Dark Souls in general you seem to have to be self punishing to play.

Didn't you get rid of your XBox and go for aPS3 instead?

And sometimes infuriating. But I doubt most difficult.

I mean, BATTLETOADS.

Never played Battletoads.

It's for real men, not Sascha's leftovers.

Yet he's still less challenging to defeat than Navarro from the original it only takes one mistake and you're toast even on the easy setting.

They why have you played it? :p

This.

Also, the last dungeon in Final Fantasy III, for similar reasons.

I am guilty of playing Really tough games, to prove my "gamer manliness", but they have to be fun. Stuff like Contra, and Super Meat Boy.

Not about to sit down and play through Silver Surfer, because that shit is just broken.

Megaman 2. The entire game.

lol what?

No idea how mega man got it's current reputation of being a "ridiculously hard" series. They aren't cakewalks, but they aren't even close to the Ninja Gaidens, Contras, or even the Castlevanias.

Castlevania....shudder.

Navarro was a fair fight thought, if you died it was because you made a mistake. On crushing he took me at most four attempts to beat him, Lasaravic took at least thirty.

Megaman 2 isn't bad. The first mega man can go stand on top of a large ship though

This. The opening platform section of the Guts Man stage is pure agony. Oh and the disappearing blocks bit, in an ice level of all places. Everyone loves disappearing blocks and ice levels right?

This thread makes me want to cry at times.

Angry Birds.

Since they added that bullshit green one in, yeah, its annoying.

Super Ghosts and Goblins or whatever.

Singstar.

Bah most of the levels are a cakewalk for me I found Mega Man 3 to be more challenging especially in the latter stages in the game which featured 2 undead bosses from Mega Man 2 for 4 levels.
