These are the hardest games of all time. How do you stack up /v/?
>>736021001I don't think I've played a single game here, let alone beat one. Most of these look like shitty licensed games and arcade/console shit.
>>736021001I still haven't beaten Alien Soldier, that game is hardcoded to induce wanker's cramp.
>>736021080What turd world shithole do you live in where you've never played a single console or arcade game?Fucking hell, nu-/v/ is just pathetic
>its entirely uncslopok boomer. next time post some real games like hollow knight or celeste
Why does /vr/ claim that if you emulate a game you didn't actually play it?
>>736021237Because 99% of the time if you're emulating you're also abusing save states, rewind, cheats, walkthroughs, etc.
>>736021182both of those games are almost a decade old, sorry anon but you are already an unc
Stop making the same thread over and over again.
>>736021182tzd
>>736021393I pointed this out and my post got deleted. Jannies always say "just ignore the post" but let retards remake the thread over and over as soon as it falls off page 10
>>736021001I'm not forcing myself to play Adventure Island and Comix Zone to impress shmup trannies.
>>736022290Why do shmup trannies want you to play non-shmups? Have you taken your meds today?
Metalstlugs, God of War, Rayman and Megaman 1 are fucking pushovers compared to shit like Ghouls & Ghosts, Battletoads or R-Type.
>>736021001Shitlist is missing Rick Dangerous, Alex Kidd and many other Atari/Amiga/Sega stuff.
>>736021001Do you have to beat the 2nd loop for Daioujou?
I've seen this same jeetslop bait on 3 boards now, get a fucking life.
>>736024240GnG and R-Type are easier than God of War on VH, and Metal Slug 1CCs>DOOD ARCADE GAME EASY WHEN I SPAM 50 QUARTERYou are a complete fucking retard, might as well turn on godmode and claim a game is easy too
>>736021001I've only played four and I didn't beat them because they weren't fun. Almost all of these are from the 80s and games back then were super short, but got a lot of playtime (or quarters) out of kids by designing screens to be impossible to react to and heavily limiting continues and checkpoints, forcing players to memorize the entire game before they could beat it. They also gave players limited amounts of control over their character, so the window for success was precise and not always intuitive. The name of the game was to just keep moving forward, dying, trying something new, writing it down so you don't forget, and repeat like 80 times before you win. There's a reason Gen Xers dropped video games entirely or still play those old games today and never moved on to the actually good games of the 90s and early 00s. They're a different breed. Their brains are still probably full of exactly what you need to do to beat these games, they can't fit anything else in there. They probably look at new games and don't understand why players aren't dying and starting from the beginning over and over again.
>>736021001contra and castlevania are not that hard
>>736021001I beat Contra, Zelda II, and Gradius
>>736021001>all shit that's borderline too old for even the fathers of most of the board>take advantage to sneak in easy shit like COD 1 and the Metal Slug expecting not to be called outLol. Lmao, even.
>>736021182Don't worry, Karen. Give it a decade and you will have your own hardest games of all time list with entries like Elden Ring, TLoU and Marathon.
>>736025289>metal slug 1cc is easy>CoD1 on Veteran (with 2-3 hit kills, no regenerating HP, and no checkpoints) is easyYou are a fucking retarded faggot. You have not done either of those, they are both difficult, and they are nowhere close to the easiest on the list
>>736024902>God of War 1 on VH>Metal Slug 1 1CCs>harder than GnGkek kekmao eventhe absolute state of posers on this board.
>>736024240R-Type never felt hard to me because you can just memorize most of it and it's actually a fun game so getting good doesn't feel like a slog. There's no such thing as a game that's too difficult to finish, there are only games that aren't good enough to make you want to finish them.
>>736025614I have a 2all no-miss of both arcade GnG games you fucking retarded faggot. Even THAT (which is like 20x harder than a basic one loop clear) is easier than God of War VH and almost easier than 1CC in Metal Slug 1.Again, you're a fucking retard and a poser and have cleared none of these games so have no fucking idea what you're talking about
>>736025614One loop clear of GnG with deaths is really not hard at all. Try playing a game for more than five minutes before shitting your diaper and calling it the hardest game ever
I dont understand this list because none of these games are hard compared to shit like I WANNA BE THE GUY / THE BOSHI or even Supermeatboy with zero death
>>736021001>Gunstar Heroes
>>736026114Expert 1CC illiterate tard
>>736025912>>736025841fuck off lying niggers, this shit is easy af and I'm not even the best of my nohit% group: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBHlRQgmahk
>>736025951Post clears retardAlso beating the entirety of Super Meat Boy without deaths is extremely difficult and you have never done it retard
>>736021001maximo is fun
>>736021001I beat like 8 or so of these but certainly not on the hardest setting and not 1cc. I am 48yo though so its just games that were around at that time and i honestly think most were too difficult back than if you were 6-12 years old.
>>736026214Still orders of magnitude harder than most of this list.Also, that's not you, that's not your channel. Post your OWN clear or fuck off retarded poser.
>>736026264>Super Meat Boy without deaths is extremely difficultyeah that's exactly what I said? do you have reading comprehension problems ESL nigger?
>>736025608>1/2h long easily memorizable games are hardLmao
>>736026353Not him but... please tell me you're joking... oh no no no no
>>736024935Fundamentally, there's no difference between "difficulty" of old games and new ones, because that word is in itself a qualifying adjective, it's arbitrary and can mean many different things for different people. Knowledge checks exist in modern products just like they did in old ones. The design philosophies can be different, that is true. When a puzzle game requires multiple tries is it an unfair bullshit? Or does this only apply to action games? How important is player's prior experience when evaluating different aspects of games?>>736025614That anon is correct. Original gng is not a very complex game, most screens are a breeze even on high settings. it's shorter than metal slug and much shorter than gow.
>>736026353
>>736021001>god of warMy retarded little brother beat those games in max difficulty when he was like 10 and he's fucking dogshit at games, this list is retarded
>>736026854yeah the seething trannies defending GoW max diff are fucking hilarious, this game is a joke if you are remotely mid-IQ with 10 functionning fingers.
>>736026369Read what you wrote again ESLtard
>>736026438Even a 30 sec segment can be brutally difficult, what the fuck are you talking about? You think a game is hard if it's a 50 hour cinematic walk and talk sad dad game??Post clears shitter.>>736026513No, that is your post actually samefag, and you have no clears to post.>>736026645You've posted zero of your own clears.>>736026854>>736027021God of War is easy on the lower difficult, VH NUR is insanely difficult and you've never done it
>>736027051>none of these games are hard compared to shit like I WANNA BE THE GUY / THE BOSHI or even Supermeatboy with zero death= all games on this shit list are easy compared to I WANNA BE THE GUY / I WANNA BE THE BOSHI / SUPERMEAT BOY WITH ZERO DEATH. (You) are trolling me, right? (You) cant possibly be this retarded. But then again you keep reddit spacing so...
>>736027051Retarded or illiterateCall it
>>736027250clown
>>736021001Never played most of them. And out of all those that I played only Contra Hard Corps was actually fun to play.
Half of those games are 'hard' because the controls are trash or the game isn't working properly. Enemies spawning out of thin air, the framerate being unable to keep up and shit like that are bugs, not features. By this logic the 360 version of New Vegas is harder than any of those games because the thing barely fucking works
>>736027425I'm going to say both. Xhe might even be some kind of maximo autismo basement dweller that keep fapping to nohit clears videos, looking at how unhinged xhis answers are...
So you removed some games from yesterday's thread and called it a new one
Is Ikaruga counting hard mode / one person playing both ships?Because even I, a garbage shmup player, could end up playing normal mode without any issue, since every single enemy placement and bullet pattern is fixed.
>>736027795Wow that one is even worse lmao
>>736027250>post clears for decades old arcade gamesLmao not even the building is there anymore
>>736021237>caring what /vr/ thinksWhy don’t you go ask them dumbass.
>>736027602>Enemies spawning out of thin airIf it works like in ghouls and ghosts or even contra that's a good thing.
>>736027795oh no no no no no no....I suddently understand better why there is a double-spacing unhinged troon fighting everyone calling his retardation out all over this gay thread.OP (YOU) are a niggerfaggot kek
most of these games aren't actually difficult but rather poorly designed. artificial difficulty.
>call of duty Can't take this list seriously now geg
>>736021001How does Zelda 2 keep ending up on these? I didn't find it all that hard, and I'm such a shitter that it's the ONLY game in that list I've beat. And I've played about half of them.
Why is this list missing all of those bullshit arcade-only games that were designed to be unfairly hard to squeeze more quarters out of people?
>>736021001>DMC1 How you know this list is boomer trying to be superior slop. One of the easiest games ever made
>>736028265You used save states, rewind, and/or a guide
>>736027795>autofire is finewhy? seems gay af to have the emu press for you at max speed. This is not the way the games are intended to be played>modern games: dying is fine kek how the fuck are Souls games difficult then? the definition of just dying again and again until you beat the bosses who the fuck makes these random artificial criterias? it's OP the faggot isnt it?
>>736028219That's CoD1 on Veteran, 2-3 hit kills, no regen HP, no checkpoints.Way to out yourself as a retarded poser
>>736028558take the L and try again tomorrow, brown ESL tranny.
>plays a game that is intentionally designed to be beaten>this is somehow 'hard'There is no such thing as a hard game if you can keep trying an unlimited amount of times
>>736028558>you are a poser>because you dont play cowadoody
>>736029110Not because you don't play it, but because you act like it's easy despite not only not having beat it, but also being completely ignorant about it
>>736027795careful now! OP is one failed thread closer to shooting a christian school.
>>736028785This is gonna make me sound like a cringelord but I came to realize this after playing the genocide route in Undertale. In the end it didn't matter how 'unfair' Sans was to fight because, if you just keep trying, beating him becomes practically inevitable, since you only need to win once and the means and tools to do so are always available to you. It really made me see games in a different light from then on, embarrassing as it might sound
>>736028558its a piece of shit with hitscan enemies that hit you on RNG. of course its 'hard'. nobody with sensible taste would play it.
But can you beat Nethack?
>>736029420Retard. Again, you just blab with no idea what you're talking about
>>736021001>literally all 8-bit slopNot one single good game in that image.
>>736028558>That's CoD1 on Veteran, 2-3 hit kills, no regen HP, no checkpoints.What a dumb fucking argument. "Hey you haven't really mastered the game until you play it in a way that it is completely at odds with the game mechanics". The game's environments and combat are literally all designed around regenerating health. Why not just say you have to play CoD with the knife at all times too and if you fire a shot you're not a REAL pro-gamer?
>God of War 1&2>Hardest games ever made
>>736021001Hard Corps with brownie - easy on any version and difficulty
>>736021001>COD
>>736029535Holy fuck you are retarded. CoD1 never had regenerating HP. It has HP pickups but none on Veteran
>>736021001>Donkey Kong LandThe Game Boy version??? I beat that shit when I was 8 nigga, how is that hard?
>>736029647That's CoD1, it has no regen HP, no HP pickups, 2-3 hit deaths, no checkpoints. Make it more obvious you never played CoD1
>>736021001>savestates are chating>punch outBros, does retyping the passwords require skill?
>Zoomertrannies think COD 1 is one of the hardest games ever conceived
>>736021182Nintendo-hard is a term for a reason.That being said, Lion King only had 1 hard level, didn't it? Granted that was a complete bullshit level, but still.
>>736021001>GoW>CoD>Zelda 2>Megaman>Contra>Metal Slugabsolute memefest of a list, great bait
i don't remember maximo being that difficult...
>>736029849Just keep ignoring these bro >>736029674>>736029739No one will notice
>>736029929You probably haven't even cleared half of those to the criteria clearly stated on the list.No, credit feeding and playing on baby difficulty modes is not why they are on the list, illiterate retard
>>736030008It's not a difficult game zoomertranny. Sorry you were born after 9/11 you useless little bitch.
>>736021001>Call of Duty>Zelda 2What?
>>736021001>not a single source movement gamemodeSomething like surf_blackheart or https://youtu.be/s0m5snPLuYg would crush you.
>>736030073post your clears, tranny
>>736021001holy mother of boomerslop
The original Call of Duty isn't difficult.
>>736029504you actually have a small sub human brain. ill assume you just hovered over it being hard because you're looking to one up people on the board. it's a piece of shit where enemies have a quarter-second reaction timer before rolling on a RNG percentage in their firing vector cone for a hit on you. of course they made it hard when you roll through linear corridors and chokepoints facing this single enemy type throughout the entire game, cunt.if i wanted to play bullshit like that, id just play rainbow six and ghost recon, at least they gave you nonlinear envrionments and other tools to not walk into enemy sightlines constantly. i know youll get your little faggot ego stroked, because COD 1 is basically esoteric knowledge compared to its later entries. and most people will assume that it being simple means = easy on highest difficulty. but dont act like its a quality game worth playing.
>>736029674>CoD1 never had regenerating HPThen why did you say it did?>>736028558>no regen HPThis also in no way addresses the original main point, which was:>>736029535>"Hey you haven't really mastered the game until you play it in a way that it is completely at odds with the game mechanics".It's a game with hitscan enemies, if you abitrarily decide that the "real" way to play it is removing all health pickups, checkpoints, and you die in two or three hits, all you're doing is turning it into a game of RNG whether or not you'll survive an encounter. You literally have no influence on dodging the bullets because they're hitscans
>>736030723>Then why did you say it did?>>>736028558 #>>no regen HPAnd before your dumb little brain fires back with the 6 neurons it has, if you specify that a particular mode does NOT have regenerating health, that implies that all the other modes do. If you spoke English as a first language you'd know this.
>>736030723>if you abitrarily decide that the "real" way to play it is removing all health pickups, checkpoints, and you die in two or three hitsRetard, this is not some arbitrary restrictions, this is just how Veteran is you fucking moron. They designed Veteran mode to be more difficult and requiring learning the levels and playing carefully. It's actually the best way to play the game and lets you really appreciate the level design
>>736030538>It's all muh RNG!!!Retard, make it more obvious you brute-forced with quicksaves (literal save states). There are consistent strategies for every level, and ways to avoid damage. Yes, you have to learn the level, no, you can't just fucking Rambo your way through and hope that aim and reaction time alone will let you win.
>>736021001>save scumming doesn't count>auto fire is fineMiss me with that gay post
>>736030798Holy fuck you are an illiterate ESL retard. I also specified CoD1 as in: the first game, specifially, has no regen HP. I shouldn't have to even clarify any of this if you weren't a poser faggot acting like you know about games you never played
>>736030838If the hardest difficulty in CoD made it so you could only use a knife, would you argue that it was showing the "true way" to play it that "really lets you appreciate the level design"?You've got this bizarre logic in your head that is multipart. 1) developers never ever do bullshit stuff in their difficulty design, and 2) that modes that remove mechanics the entire game is built around somehow makes it "truer".Here is an actual, real-world example. I want you to answer this honestly.In Hitman: Absolution, they have the "Instinct Meter". When you have stolen the clothes of a particular enemy type, all the people of the same enemy type can see through that disguise. Street cops can see through your stolen street cop uniform, other janitors can see through your stolen janitor outfit, etc. By using some of your Instinct, you are able to temporarily pass by guards who would normally detect you (holding down the Instinct button as you walk past them will do things like pull your hat lower over your face etc).In the hardest difficulty, they have completely removed the Instinct system entirely. What that means is that the game is borderline impossible to beat stealthily on the hardest difficulty without aggressively exploiting glitches and engine/AI quirks, because the game, the levels, and all the enemy placement was designed with you having the Instinct meter to pass through.Does this sound like it would be the "true, hardcore way" to play the game and let you "really appreciate the level design"? Or does this sound like a bullshit exercise in tedium that plays against the game's entire design?
>>736031305>you are an illiterate ESL retard.not him but I read this whole gay thread and actually you are the illiterate ESL retard. you didnt even understand what that other anon wrote about Super Meatboy and just stopped answering when some posters called you on it LMAO
>>736031487CoD1 doesn't have a knife, retard.And if it was cheap, poorly designed bullshit then it wouldn't be on this list, retard.
>>736031305>>736030217where is your COD, clear nigger?
>>736031820>didn't actually answer the question at all or address anything about the postAlright then.>>736031669>you didnt even understand what that other anon wrote about Super Meatboy and just stopped answering when some posters called you on it LMAOThis dude nailed it lmao
>>736031669>or even Supermeatboy with zero deathor even implying Super Meat Boy zero death is easy, but yet still harder than this list. Maybe ESLtard didn't know what he actually wrote, because Super Meat Boy without deaths is orders of magnitude harder than IWBTG with unlimited deaths
I don't remember Comix Zone or DMC3 being that hard. The former was just remembering what panels to go through for the easiest time through the level alongside using your rat for secret items, the latter was just using Royal Guard and if you were stuck, you could buy healing items
>>736021001A good chunk of these were games I beat as a kid and was pretty good at. I have no idea how many I've beaten under the no continues rule, though, with a couple of exceptions. The NES TMNT was the first game I ever played. I practically have that memorized. I'm also certain I've done Castlevania and DK94.
>>736031954Supermeat boy with zero death is easier than finishing I wanna be the boshi, which is what I wrote. (You) are still an ESL retard, thanks for confirming it!
>>736021080Yes, they are all shit. Now my friend, we can leaves this god forsaken thread and never look back.
>>736021001Wait, didn't I see this thread yesterday? I dont think there's anything wrong with repeating a thread. But I saw this shit twice yesterday and they both died with less than 100 replies. Is this some meme or bait
>>736032173You can die an unlimited amount of times in IWTBTB, it's far easier than beatinf every single level of Super Meat Boy including Cotton Alley and Dark World consecutively without a single death. The former takes a few dozen hours, the latter takes 500-1000+ hours
>>736031954wtf am I reading lmao bruteforcing supermeatboy is way easier than IWBTBYou are a gay poser, no wonder you keep calling people about their clears without posting any of your own LMAO
>>736027795Completed for newer games is too generous. Because you could just run your head into brick walls and win eventually. Deathless should be the standard. Also remove Demon's Souls, DS1, DS2, and DS3, and just put Elden Ring as it is by far the hardest of the Souls games. Sekiro is fine. Nioh 1 and 2 are fine.
>>736032135Comix Zone is a bit hard but the reason it gets the "omg so insanely hard" reputation is that people don't read the manual where it says that you're supposed to do the Shoulder Check move to break open crates/doors/etc instantly, so they just beat on the stuff with their bare hands and lose half their health doing so.
>>736032510>bruteforcing >the entire game without a single deathHoly fucking single digit IQ
>>736029535Plenty of games remove health pack pick ups from their harder difficulties and force players to adopt a different strategy to win. NGII on lower difficulties is a button masher while on higher difficulties you have to be extremely careful. Stop having a sperg attack for not knowing why an old shooter was hard on its hardest difficulties.

>>736032372let me tell you a secret, low-iq nigger: you can also die an unlimited amount of times to do all% no death Supermeatboy! the difficulty is not the endurance run but the actual skill required to clear the levels, regardless of the length. There is zero pixel perfect jumps or RNG patterns in Supermeatboy, not the case in Boshy. Some players will NEVER be able to do it, period.

>>736032721fyi: >>736032939
If you're wondering what caused OP's brain damage, the answer is youtube. He discovered Mork's channel and decided that his autistic definition of gaming was the only correct one. The problem is he likes games that don't fit the narrow world view, now he has to act like Call of Duty is a hardcore game that people "clear".

> you haven't obsessively played that 1987 side scroller? you fake gamerSome of you are somehow worse than music hipsters
>>736032939Are you actually braindead? Each fucking level in Super Meat Boy has no checkpoints, so no fucking shit you have to complete each 5-30 secone level deathless. The whole point of a deathless Super Meat Boy run is tha it's THE ENTIRE FUCKING GAME, EVERY LEVEL, CONSECUTIVELY without deaths. No deaths on a per-level basis would literally just be beating the game...

>>736033435You can't just blow it off now retard. You really tried to tell me Super Meat Boy no deaths actually just meant each level individually deaths.... as if the levels have any other fucking way to beat them.You're a fucking retard, no deaths means the entire game, every level with no deaths. You also could have meant each world deathless (like the Ironman achievements), but considering you never even mentioned that once over multiple posts, fat fucking chance. No, what really happened is you tried to speak on a game you know nothing about and got called the fuck out.I accept your concession, now never show your face in my threads again until you post clears shitter
